    Red Rock Snow Canyon Engagements {Chantelle+Macrae}

    July 4, 2017

    St George Utah Engagement Photos I had such a fantastic time photographing Chantelle and Macrae’s red rock Snow Canyon engagement photos! I love red rock engagement photo sessions, and this one absolutely didn’t disappoint. The stunning natural scenery around St George makes it an amazing city. Some of the better known features are the redrock and mesas. Engagement photos in Snow Canyon are some of my favorites. For the first part of Chantelle and Macrae’s engagement photography session, we explored the white rocks. The white rock area of Snow Canyon is one of my favorites. We had amazing light and…

    Snow Canyon Utah Engagement Photos {Chantelle+Macrae}

    June 27, 2017

    St George Engagement Photographer Chantelle & Macrae are both from Southern Utah and knew they wanted their engagement photos in Snow Canyon. I always love photographing red rock engagement photos. Snow Canyon with its stunning sandstone cliffs is the perfect spot for an afternoon engagement photo session. Chantelle and Macrae have such awesome personalities. They are so fun to photograph and are obviously a stunning couple. I loved Chantelle’s red dress that she wore for the second half of her photos. We started their photos in the white rock area of Snow Canyon, which is always a beautiful spot. I love…

    Entrada at Snow Canyon Pre Wedding {Amanda+Mason}

    April 17, 2017

    Southern Utah Wedding Photographer Entrada Wedding Entrada at Snow Canyon is one of the top wedding venues in St George. An Entrada Wedding is always a wonderful time! I absolutely love photographing weddings at Entrada. The Unique landscape with its fields of black lava, mixed with the green grass of the course and Red rock of Snow Canyon are breathtaking. When Amanda and Mason mentioned wanting to do their pre wedding bridals at Entrada, I was thrilled. I love the dry and arid lava rock intermingled with the lush green of the golf course. With Snow Canyon as a backdrop, this…

    August 17, 2016

    Southern Utah Wedding Photographer St George Entrada Wedding It was a dark and rainy day in Southern Utah for Macy and Heath’s wedding. That being said, it was also absolutely stunning! I had such a fantastic time photographing this beautiful wedding filled with unique personal details. Starting with Macy’s choice of camo wedding pumps, to the cake topper with the bride, the hunter, and of course her shotgun, each part of the wedding was unique. Heath is a hunter and it was awesome to see touches of his passion laced through the wedding details. There was rain during the ceremony,…

    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…

    Utah Bride Blog Spring Shoot

    February 21, 2013

    Utah Bride Blog asked me to photograph their Spring inspiration shoot. It took place at Entrada and really played off of the red rock background. Forevermore Events did the styling, and the beautiful floral was by Blossom Sweet. NP Films did a great video for the shoot that really captured every moment. 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…

    I Recently photographed Marlee and Tylers wedding at Entrada in Southern Utah and it was amazing. The red cliffs of Snow canyon in the background and the lush golf course and water features made for the perfect wedding venue. Their decor and coordination by Forevermore Events was flawless, as was their amazing floral by Bloomers. I love doing weddings at Entrada and knowing that every shot will be stunning. The clubhouse is beautiful and naturally blends into the environment. The food is always delicious and the guests always happy. Marlee and Tyler were so fantastic to work with. They won this…

    Entrada Wedding (Lacey + Easton)

    I loved Photographing Lacey and Easton’s wedding at Entrada Golf Course. It was beautiful. Awesome decor by Forevermore Events  made every detail perfect. Lacey and Easton are an amazing couple and their families made for the perfect celebration. Photographing weddings at Entrada are always amazing. The warm summer air at night cooled off by the grass and beautiful water features all around. It really is an oasis below the vistas of red rocks.

    Entrada Wedding { Janna + Jonny}

    December 15, 2009

    Jana and Johnny were married at Entrada at Snow Canyon. I had a wonderful time doing the pictures for this beautiful Southern Utah Wedding. The Couple came down from Salt Lake, and the only thing more beautiful than the backdrop and weather was these two! Entrada is always a beautiful spot for a wedding. They threw a great party, and had a blast. It is so hard to go through a wedding and just pick a few standouts to tell the story, but I hope you enjoy these.
