    Pine Valley Snow Pre Wedding {Jaycee+Tyler}

    March 17, 2017

    Utah Wedding Photographer Pine Valley Snow Pre Wedding As a wedding photographer in Utah, I have learned to embrace and enjoy the seasons. One of my favorite seasons for photos has to be Winter. I absolutely love sessions in the snow! When looking for a winter look a Pine Valley Snow Bridal is a must! Granted, they are much tougher logistically. They can be wet, cold and windy. The wind can be blowing and the snow falling all at the same time. That being said, they are also so romantic and beautiful. There is something about flakes of snow falling, that makes…

    Pine Valley Engagement Photos Southern Utah Wedding Photographer People don’t always associated Southern Utah with snow. Pine Valley Winter Engagement photo sessions are some of my favorites. Right here in Southern Utah we have a number of spots that have a decent amount of snow throughout the winter. Pine Valley is one of the best spots for snow for engagement photos. I love the winter and the wonderful feel of the season. Only about 40 minutes from St George, Pine Valley has amazing pine trees, mountains and lots of snow! I had such a fun time with Erika and Levi.…

    Leeds Creek Engagement {Jaycee+Tyler}

    January 10, 2017

    St George Engagement Photographer Southern Utah Fall Engagement Photos I loved this rustic fall engagement session with Jaycee and Tyler. Over ten years ago I met Jaycee when I photographed her sisters wedding in San Diego. She has grown up a lot since then! It was so fun going around with Jaycee and Tyler of their engagement photos near Leeds in Southern Utah. There is a lot of history in the Leeds and Silver Reef area. The mining industry in the area was a large reason for the growth of Southern Utah in the late 1800’s. I am a bit…

    Fall Leaves in Southern Utah Engagement Teaser

    October 18, 2016

    Every year we get wonderful fall colors to photograph in Southern Utah. This year however might have been the best I have ever seen. Yesterday I had an amazing fall engagement session and was blown away by the color. Fall leaves in engagement photos are tricky. You have to hit it at just the right time, on just the right day, in just the right location to get them at their best. Zion National park is amazing for fall colors. Oranges, reds and yellow leaves turn the park to the most amazing shades of rainbow. I absolutely loved this fall…

    Pine Valley Utah Engagement {Ali+Cory}

    September 22, 2016

    Ali and Cory’s engagement session in Pine Valley was absolute perfection. These two love the outdoors and Pine Valley was the perfect spot for their engagement photos. I had a great time hiking around the mountains and near the lake with these two. Cory loves to fish so the reservoir was especially perfect to represent him for their photos. I love the interaction between these two and the love the have for one another. Its also a huge plus that regardless of how hot it might be in St George, Pine Valle is always a nice respite from the heat.…

    Fall Pine Valley Engagement Session {Rebecca+Mike}

    November 13, 2014

    I have had the wonderful opportunity to get to know the Childs Family over the years having photographed now three of their daughters. I loved working with Rebecca and Mike for their engagement pictures in Pine Valley Utah. I first meat Rebecca at the wedding of her sister Sarah in Las Vegas a few years back and then got to know her better last year for her sister Jessicas wedding in Las Vegas. These are beautiful and kind people that I just love working with! Rebecca and Mike are truly in love and as so wonderful to hang out with.…

    Silver Reef Utah Family Photos {Moore Family}

    December 10, 2011

    Silver Reef Utah is one of my favorite places to do photos and The Moore Family is absolutely one of my favorite families to photograph. I first started doing their family pictures in 2009 in Saint George. We met up later that same year and photographed them at the beach in Encinitas in San Diego County. Last I worked with them was at Spring Mountain Ranch in Las Vegas where we did their family photos. This is such a special family. It has been so fun getting to know them better over the years. They are amazing to work with…
