(Texas Meets Montana Style)

Ever pictured yourself rocking cowboy boots under big Montana skies — feeling strong, free, and photographed like never before? That’s exactly what happened when Alicia Blue, a Houston-based aerialist and fitness trainer, flew north for her bucket-list trip to Glacier National Park. She reached out with a simple message:

“I’ve always wanted to do a lifestyle shoot up there and found your page!”

The result? A multi-location, cowboy boudoir gallery that blends Western edge with Glacier’s stunning scenery — proving confidence looks good on every woman.

About Alicia

Alicia Blue isn’t just a fitness trainer from Houston—she’s an aerialist (think Cirque du Soleil vibes with a cowboy hat) with the kind of grace and strength that show up in every image. From the first message she sent me, she was fun, upbeat, and totally down for adventure. What she brought to Glacier wasn’t just outfits and ideas—it was pure energy, movement, and joy.

The Shoot: Cowboy Boudoir Meets Montana Adventure

Located inside Glacier National Park, Lake McDonald gave us one of the most iconic cowboy boudoir looks of the day. Alicia wore two outfits here: classic denim shorts with a white crop top and cowboy hat, and a flowing floral dress that added a sultry, romantic feel. From walking the rocky shoreline to laying back on a driftwood stump in the crystal-clear water, this session captured bold beauty, raw nature, and that fearless Texas-meets-Montana vibe.

Beautiful Field Stop

Wide open meadow outside of Glacier National Park set the scene for this spot—classic Western tones and big Montana skies. Alicia wore black cut-off shorts, a black bra (and a few shots without it), black cowboy boots, and a cowboy hat.

Alicia’s confidence and strength—no doubt shaped by her work as a fitness trainer and aerialist—came through in every shot. The session was relaxed, natural, and truly her.

Belton Bridge

Flowing Florals & Bold Simplicity

Belton Bridge offered the perfect mix of rugged textures and soft natural light. Alicia wore two standout looks here:

A flowy floral dress with a deep split neckline, capturing the delicate yet daring side of the shoot. She walked along turquoise waters, posed on mossy rocks, and laid back on the stones, blending grace with the wild Montana scenery.
For a contrasting vibe, Alicia wore white linen pants—no top—showcasing raw confidence and natural beauty. She relaxed on the rocks, sitting with knees bent or stretched out, the peaceful river and stones framing every shot.

Forget‑Me‑Not Meadow & Rustic Barn at Ryan Meadow in Glacier National Park

Montana summer bursts to life with wildflowers in the Forget-Me-Not Meadow, where denim shorts and white crop tops meet vibrant colors and gentle movement. Nearby, the rustic barn’s weathered wood creates a simple, authentic backdrop, letting Alicia’s natural confidence and style shine through.
