    Salt Lake Memory Grove Wedding {Madeline+Brandon}

    February 19, 2015

    One of the most beautiful locations for a wedding and nestled in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City is Memory Grove. The vast green lawns, meandering stream and amazing architecture make for such a wonderful wedding venue. Madeline and Brandon were married at one of the sites on the grounds. I love the classic Greco Roman architecture that was the backdrop for their wedding ceremony. Their first look beforehand just outside of Memory Grove building made for such an amazing moment. I love first looks when they are possible because it frees up so much more time after the…

    Heartwood Hall Tennessee Wedding {Emily + Ben}

    May 15, 2014

    One of my favor destination weddings to photograph was Emily and Ben’s beautiful event at Heartwood Hall just outside of Memphis Tennessee. Heartwood Hall is an old plantation property with all of the Southern Charm you could ever want. Speaking of charm, Emily and Ben are just about the cutest couple out there and their love was infectious. Emily wanted pictures of a first look before the wedding ceremony which was taking place at sunset. This was one of the most emotional first looks I have photographed. Ben’s love for Emily on their wedding day was overwhelming. Lets back up…

    SLC Garden Place Wedding {Stephanie + Joel}

    April 28, 2014

    Photographing this wedding reception at The Garden Place in Salt Lake was amazing. Stephanie and Joel were married at the Salt Lake City Temple and had their reception at The Garden Place, at This is The Place. I loved photographing weddings at the temple. I feel like there are so many amazing spots that I can always find something new and fresh for the photos. The architecture is fantastic and so unique. I really enjoy all of the different old buildings near by as well. After photographing their engagements and Bridal photos in Salt Lake I was so excited to…

    Salt Lake Punk Wedding {Mariana + Jordan}

    October 25, 2013

    Mariana and Jordan have a style and a love all their own. They both love punk Rock so I’m saying that was a bit of the theme of this wedding. I loved photographing these two, Mariana in her beautiful blue greek style wedding dress and Jordan in his casual shoes and great looking bow tie. It was a bit wet in SLC when we started doing their wedding photos but it turned out beautiful anyway. The cold Salt Lake air and the wonderful fall colors made for the right combination of really showing the time of year. Mariana is from…

    Equestrian Wedding Inspiration

    July 15, 2013

    This wonderful Equestrian inspired styled shoot by When Pigs Fly Events was really special. Photographing it in Las Vegas was so fun. The horse was beautiful and I loved the idea of having the table set up inside of the stables. It really had a great feel to it. I loved all of the wonderful equestrian details, not to mention the wonderful styling of the models. There are many Horse Lovers and I hope that I will see a real wedding take this idea sometime soon!
