The Cedar City temple is going to be a beautiful spot for a wedding. At this point though its still not finished so as it has always been, couples from Cedar City come down to the St George temple to be married. Terra and Derek came down from Cedar City where they held their reception later in the day to be married in the St George temple. I first meat these two for their engagement session in Southern Utah. We photographed their bridals as well and had a wonderful time from start to finish working with these two and their…

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,…

I love photographing couples in Southern Utah. Zion National Park and Snow Canyon State Park are two of the best spots for red rock sandstone in Southern Utah. I loved photographing Macy and Heath for their engagement session in Snow Canyon. I don’t know if there is anywhere else as beautiful in Southern Utah. The best part about Snow Canyon compared to Zion is a lack of clouds. Zion is an amazing place to be sure. I like to think of Snow Canyon as a mini Zion. Macy and heath are a beautiful couple inside and out. So fun to…

Jaime & Jake have a love for the outdoors. They were planning to do a family trip to Lake Powell and decided to combine it with their nuptials to make for the perfect destination wedding in one of the most stunning locations in the world. Lake Powell is an amazing location for a wedding. The towering sandstone cliffs jutting out of the crystal blue water make for one of the most jaw dropping landscapes anywhere. People come from all over to experience this wondrous area. The recreation is a big draw for any lake, but this is especially true for…

Sand Hollow is one of the most unique places near St. George for wedding portraits, bridal photos, groomals, engagements, and pre-wedding sessions. The mix of blue water, red rock, desert cliffs, and open Southern Utah light gives it a look that feels completely different from most wedding photo locations in Utah. This Sand Hollow pre-wedding session with Courtney and Travis is a perfect example of why the location works so well. They were getting married at Sand Hollow, so doing their bridal and groomal photos around the lake made the whole story feel connected to the place. The contrast between…

I love photographing couples for their engagement photos. This beautiful engagement photo session in Snow Canyon State Park was no different. Courtney often wears a hat so she brought one along for some of the photos. It was so fun, and a great way to show a little bit of who she is. The two of them have such fun style, and amazing personalities. We laughed and joked as we hiked around the red rock and lava flows of Snow Canyon. The sandstone cliffs and formations always make for such an amazing time in Snow Canyon. I am constantly amazed…

More often then not when couples ask me what to wear for their engagement session I really try to encourage them to be themselves… their best selves. Amanda and Mason needed no coaching. They came dressed to impress and I absolutely loved working with them for their engagement photo session. Their session took place in the beginning of Spring. We knew we wanted it to have that green spring feel. The weather was beautiful and the trees with the golden light of the afternoon were stunning. I loved photographing the love these two have for one another. The golf course…

I had a great time photographing this engagement session. When talking about Southern Utah, most people think first and foremost of the red rock cliffs and mesas of places like Zion National Park and Snow Canyon. I love the white sandstone area above Snow Canyon for its stark contrast to the typical red rock. When I’m photographing anyone in this area I love to get a good pop of contrast from what they are wearing. Jasmine & Erik came dressed to impress. Jasmine’s red and green dresses along with Erik in his tux looked amazing against the white desert landscape.…

I recently had the opportunity to photograph April & Connor’s bridal session starting at the LDS Temple in St George and then moving on to finish their bridal session in Snow Canyon State Park. I am a big fan of both of these locations. I love the architecture and grounds of the temple. I photograph weddings at the LDS Temple often and its always such a pleasure. Snow Canyon is one of my favorite places anywhere, and even more so when we get so lucky to have an amazing sky. The weather was pretty fantastic for photos with these two. They…

Zion National Park is the perfect place for a wedding. I love photographing weddings in Zion. People travel from all over the world to experience its towering sandstone cliffs, amazing vistas and breathtaking slot canyons. Zion has become known as one of the top destinations for a wedding and with its awe inspiring outdoor appeal it is no wonder why. The weather in Zion is some of the best in the world. I was so excited for Kelly and John to have their wedding at the beautiful Cliffrose Lodge just outside of Zion. Forevermore Events did an amazing job decorating…

So often when people think of the desert of Southern Utah it is the red rock desert that comes to mind. The truth is though St George is full of life and color. I was so glad to have photographed Jessica and Jordan’s bridal session at Dixie Red Hills Golf Course. I loved photographing their engagement session in Heber Utah a few months before and was looking forward to working with them again. Bridal sessions can be a lot of fun. I love photographing a couple in their wedding attire without the time and location restraints so often associated with…

Instagram has become such a great place to share a little of what I do on a daily basis with my photography. Every so often I will run an instagram contest to try and help a couple or family get the photos they have dreamed of, but maybe couldn’t alway budget for. If you haven’t already started following my instagram, be sure to jump on there for the change to win your own session. Mckell & Tui entered a Instagram contest I held during the summer. There were hundreds of entries and I was so thrilled for this special pair to…
