    Utah Indian Hindu Wedding {Adria+Sujeet}

    June 6, 2015

    I had the opportunity recently to photograph the wedding of an amazing couple! Adria and Sujeet were married in a traditional Hindu ceremony in front of the red cliffs of Snow Canyon at Entrada Golf Club. I absolutely love photographing weddings at Entrada. It is a stunning venue with so much to offer. The two met and live in Washington, DC, but created a “destination” wedding experience for their guests in Adria’s hometown of St. George. The wedding was recently published on Style Me Pretty, which is always such an honor! Their favorite part of the reception was the sparkler entrance…

    Southern Utah Indian Wedding Teaser {Adria & Suj }

    February 15, 2015

    Utah, Hindu Wedding Photographer A wedding at Entrada at Snow Canyon has always been one of my favorite venues in Southern Utah to photograph. This wedding which was coordinated by Middle Aisle was an absolute jaw dropping inspiration! Indian Hindu weddings are full of color, life, excitement and tradition but being as this was a half indian wedding and half western it really had a touch of the east meats west. Adria is originally from St George and wanted to be married here. All of Suj’s family came in from out of stater or country. Almost all of their friends…

    August 3, 2014

    Im always looking for new fun places to photograph couples around Southern Utah. On a recent hike I came across this beautiful spot for Kashae and Aaron’s Bridal session. I loved photographing this amazing couple for their Southern Utah Desert Engagements and was really looking forward to photographing their bridal session. We had such a fantastic time. I loved Kashae’s amazing lace dress and beautiful floral crown and bouquet by Bloomers Flowers. Aaron’s tailored suit was a perfect complement.

    Brigham Young Home Bridal {Taylor}

    August 30, 2013

    I love doing photo sessions around the old buildings in St George. Especially the Brigham Young Home. The Brigham Young Home was the summer home of Brigham Young who lived the rest of the year in Salt Lake City. It has a great old time feel to it. Especially with the white picket fences and amazing mature landscape and trees. Taylor wanted someplace clean with lots of greenery and a bit of a vintage vibe for her bridals. We decided on this great location. She is a beautiful bride and I loved photographing her not only for her bridals but…

    Saint George Temple Wedding Day {Nicole + Wade}

    April 3, 2013

    Saint George is a beautiful place for a wedding, especially at the Saint George Temple downtown. I had a great time photographing Nicole and Wades wedding day. We started the day in St George where the sun was shining bright. NP Films was there to capture not only the temple, but the reception later that afternoon. Be sure to watch both videos below. The reception portion of their day took place in Cedar City where they are both from. Forevermore Events did a fantastic job on their decoration and coordination of the day. I love going up to Cedar City…

    Saint George Utah Bridal {Nicole + Wade}

    March 3, 2013

    I recently photographed Nicole and Wades bridal session in St George. We started the bridal session at the St George Temple and ended at Snow Canyon. The spring colors starting to pop up around Southern Utah were a real treat. I love the pink blossoms on the trees at the temple. Snow Canyon is consistently beautiful year round, and was perfect for ending the session. I loved working with Nicole and Wade on their engagement photos last month and look forward to their wedding soon which is being coordinated by Forevermore Events and the video by NP Films. Bloomers did the…

The theme associated with this shoot was obviously Oranges, and pretty much anything orange. Pink Piggy Designs did a wonderful job on all of the paper details really finishing off the entire look and feel of the shoot. Sweet Cakes by Karen made a wonderful cake that tied the desert…
