    St George Utah Temple Wedding {Jaycee+Tyler}

    July 18, 2017

    St George Temple Wedding The Lds Temple in St George is one of the oldest and most beautiful. Jayceee and Tyler are both from Southern Utah and knew that they wanted to have a St George temple wedding. Photographing temple weddings is different from that of a traditional wedding. As the photographer, I am not permitted to photograph the ceremony itself. I always love that moment though, when the couple comes out of the temple. They are newly married and the joy and excitement is palpable. Jaycee and Tyler have been a couple since high school, and their chemistry is…

    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…

    St George Wedding Photographer Southern Utah Engagement Photos I always love photographing couples in St George. It is such a beautiful area. Its full of the obvious red rock and sandstone cliffs, but also has hidden gems like the amazing trees and backdrops of this fun engagement session. A golf course engagement photos  session in Southern Utah is always a good idea. Ellen and Erik hired me to photograph their engagement session, and Im so glad they did. Southern Utah is beyond beautiful, and so is this couple! We had such a fantastic time and ended up with some really…

    Toniquent Gardens Wedding {Ali+Cory}

    St George Wedding Photographer St George LDS Temple Wedding The Toniquent Nature Center and Gardens are a wonderful venue for a wedding reception. There isn’t anything like a Toniquent Gardens wedding in St George. Ali and Cory were married at the St George LDS temple, and then had their reception at the Toniquent Gardens. I love photographing temples at the LDS Temple in St George. The stunning architecture of the pioneer building is so iconic and unique. I had the best time with Ali, Cory and their families. It was such a treat getting to know this awesome couple over…

I absolutely loved all the breathtaking floral elements as well at this wedding by Bloomers! Jordan and Jackson were married at the St George LDS Temple in Southern Utah and had their stunning reception at The Ledges. The Ledges is a wonderful wedding venue. It sits above Snow Canyon and is known for its wonderful view and beautiful indoor, outdoor vibe. I loved all of the light colors and textures at this wedding. I photographed Jordan and Jackson’s…

    Sand Hollow Sunset Engagement {Kelcie+Matt}

    December 27, 2016

    St George Wedding Photographer Sand Hallow Beach Engagement Photos Just because Southern Utah is a long way away from the ocean, that doesn’t mean we can’t take advantage of beautiful beaches for wedding and engagement photos! We have no shortage of amazing lakes and reservoirs in Southern Utah. Sand Hallow is one of my favorites for photos! I love the red rock jutting out of the crystal blue water. It is almost otherworldly. Kelcie and Matt were so fantastic to work with! We hiked around the beaches and sandstone cliffs to get some truly amazing photos. The sunset was nothing…
