    Garden Park Ward Engagement { Madeline + Brandon }

    February 19, 2014

These session was photographed in the early spring but before the leaves had begun to grow. I love the look with the beautiful way they are dressed and in such light sweet colors.

      The fabulous team at Mood Events shares with us a little about their design concept and how they brought their vision to life:   It’s difficult to select just one style to describe the overall look and feel of this fall photo shoot.  Altogether, it is an eclectic mix of styles and various elements that form a cohesive and non-traditional fall-inspired look.  Some of the styles incorporated into the overall design aesthetic include rustic and natural elements, modern patterns, whimsical flower arrangements and bold colors, honey, bees, fruits, berries and grains to invoke a sense of harvest and bounty, and lets…

    Garden Park Ward Engagement (Sarah + Leslie)

    April 20, 2011

    I had the opportunity to go to Salt Lake City to photograph Sarah and Leslie’s Engagement session at the Garden Park Ward in Sugarhouse. This building and its landscape are so unique and beautiful. Beautiful architecture, gardens, and water features make it the perfect wedding and photography spot. There are amazing ponds and waterfalls along with great architecture from the early 1920’s. Sarah and Leslie were a great couple to work with. Botha  lot of fun, and very much in love!

    wheeler farm bridal ( Summer and Brandon )

    October 6, 2010

    Summer and Brandon are one of my favorite couples. They both do long distance biking, and actually met on a bike. Summer is a serious trooper, she was sick the day of her bridals, but toughed through it like a champ. So much fun, and you cant beat the beautiful backdrop.
