2026 Marathon Photo Access

Weddings & Elopements

I photograph weddings and elopements with a mix of natural posing and genuine energy so you feel comfortable fast. The day stays relaxed, flexible, and fun — and I help with direction when you need it. Clean, timeless images, real connection, and zero pressure.

Family Portraits

Family sessions with me are relaxed, flexible, and fun. No rushing, no pressure, and no expectation for perfection — just your family being yourselves. We mix natural posing with movement so the experience feels easy and the photos feel genuine.

Families

Proposals

If you’re proposing in Glacier or Whitefish, I’ve got you. I help with planning, timing, hiding, and making the moment feel natural — not staged or stressful. After the “yes,” we take easy, fun portraits so you leave with a full story of the day.

BEHIND THE LENS

Polly Rhodes — Whitefish, Montana

Living in the mountains is a dream come true, and getting to photograph people enjoying life out here is the icing on the cake.

I’m the lead wedding and portrait photographer at Mountain Life Photography, with over 20 years of experience, 100's of weddings, and thousands of family and portrait sessions photographed.

I bring a fun, energetic approach and give clear direction so people feel comfortable and confident throughout their session.

I only take amazing photos. And I promise to do the same for you.

My Story

What Clients Are Saying!

Jasi & Jeff Somrock Whitefish Mountain Resort Wedding and Glacier Adventure Session

From start to finish, Polly was absolutely incredible. Polly speaks so positively about everything and everyone - from our guests to our venue, her family, and beautiful Whitefish - and that energy shines through in her work. Her talent is unreal; so many of our guests commented on how amazing she was even before seeing the photos. She showed up early, stayed late, and did the same for our Glacier National Park shoot, where she jumped right into the mix and brought so much enthusiasm.

Karen Berger 80th celebration for her mother

My sister and I took our 80 year old mom on a once in a lifetime trip to Whitefish. While we were there, we wanted to have some professional pictures taken. Polly was the perfect choice. She was great about communicating and being flexible. Polly was relaxed and fun and was able to capture our personalities. The pictures turned out exactly how I had hoped with the breathtaking views of Whitefish in the background. This photo shoot ended up being the highlight of our trip. I will cherish this memory and the pictures forever. If you are looking for someone to take your photos, don't hesitate to call Polly. You won't regret it.

Justin and Ashley Park City Utah Adventure Elopement

We had the most magical ski wedding thanks to Mountain Life Photography. She captured every breathtaking snowy moment, even with a tricky forecast. She went above and beyond to make us all look amazing and get incredible action shots. Polly was so helpful in suggesting poses and ideas for stunning photos. I let her take charge and she absolutely nailed it. Highly recommend her for anyone wanting unique and stunning wedding photos!

Polly is the best to work with. Had such a good time shooting the engagement with her really made it comfortable. She was very helpful with the planning and even was able to help adjust with rainy days. Truly the best and couldn’t have asked for a better person for the moment!
