    Salt Lake LDS Temple Wedding {Tisha+Tyler}

    February 6, 2017

    Salt Lake City Wedding Photographer SLC Temple Wedding Getting to know Tisha and Tyler has been an absolute joy! I loved photographing their wedding in Salt Lake City. They were married at the SLC LDS Temple, and had their backyard reception later that day. They had many traditional Mexican elements. Needless to say that means it was a great party! Lots of dancing and mariachi music. It was so fun with miniature golf, and delicious treats. I photographed Tisha and Tyler’s engagement session in Southern Utah, and had the best time with the two of them. I was so thrilled…

    Southern Utah Snow Bridal {Sammy + Kyle}

    March 1, 2015

    If you are in Southern Utah but you really want to capture the essence of winter for your engagement or wedging photos there really is no better spot then Pine Valley to do pictures! I just love the amazing mountains, pine trees and landscape up there. We ran into some perfectly cloudy skies for Sammy and Kyle’s bridal photos which just added to the overall feel of the wintery scene. Bridal photos in the snow are just so beautiful and fun. I alway recommend that my brides wear a warm pair of boots and thermals under their dress if at…

    Portland Oregon LDS Temple Wedding {Yunwoo+Brian}

    August 23, 2014

    Portland Oregon is such a beautiful city for a wedding. I photographed Yunwoo and Brian’s wedding at the Portland LDS Temple over the summer. The day was absolutely perfect. Oregon might be better known for it rainy days but this wedding day was full of sunshine and smiles. Yunwoo’s Family traveled from Asia to be at the wedding while Brian is from Portland. The traditional asian wedding dress Yunwoo wore for some of the photos was beautiful. I had a great time photographing them around the LDS Temple grounds as well as the Pittock Mansion in Portland. The grounds around the Pittock…

    Chelsea and Clints friends and family came from all over the united states to be a part of their beautiful Southern Utah Wedding. Their day started with their ceiling ceremony at the St George Temple and finished for their reception at the beautiful Ledges Golf Club.

    SLC LDS Temple Wedding {Ashton + Mitchell}

    Photographing weddings at the beautiful SLC LDS Temple in downtown Salt Lake is always amazing. The buildings downtown have amazing architecture, and there is always a number of spots with wonderful lighting . This Fall wedding even had the beautiful fall colors. I had the opportunity to photograph Ashton and Mitchell’s Engagement session a few months prior, and then their Bridal Session in SLC more recently. They are a beautiful couple inside and out, and are so fun to work with. I really enjoyed their families as well. Their reception at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building was really special. They had…

    May 10, 2014

    I have the opportunity to travel often for weddings and I love it. Photographing Morning and Michaels wedding day in Dallas Texas at the LDS Temple and their reception at the Adolphus Hotel in downtown Dallas was awesome. They found me through their friends who I photographed a couple years back.  Nate of NP Films came with me and shot awesome video as well.

    Photographing Cambri and Michaels wedding day at the Salt Lake Temple and Le Jardin was wonderful. Le Jardin is a beautiful reception venue. Year round it is green and lush. Le Jardin is a group of green houses filled with beautiful plants and walkways. Cambri’s mother is a decorator and did a wonderful job with all of the setup for the reception. Their beautiful day started at the SLC Temple. I have enjoyed getting to know these two through the process of photographing their engagement photos around downtown SLC and then their wedding.

    St George Temple Snow Bridal {Kylie + Garrett}

    November 18, 2013

    I had the unique opportunity to photograph Kylie and Garrett’s bridal in the Snow at the St George Temple. Doing pictures in St George really almost never happens so I am pretty excited. The St George Temple with its bright white exterior was beautiful surrounded with all of the snow. I loved Kylie’s Bouquet from Bloomers and Garrett looked pretty dang sharp in his black suit. Macy Dockstater did Kylie’s hair and makeup, and as always it was beautiful. I had the best time photographing these two around the temple and then up at Pine Valley. Pine Valley is one…

    October 2, 2013

    It was a beautiful day at the Temple in St George for bridal pictures. We started the session with Chyanne and Brant at the St George Temple and ended at Pine Valley which is one of my favorite spots. The day was beautiful and the weather was perfect. Nate of NP Films was there to capture the session as well. Photographing couples at the temple and at pine valley is always wonderful, so to be able to do both in the same day was really awesome. Pine Valley is about 45 minutes to an hour from St George, but can…

    Brigham Young Home Bridal {Taylor}

    August 30, 2013

    I love doing photo sessions around the old buildings in St George. Especially the Brigham Young Home. The Brigham Young Home was the summer home of Brigham Young who lived the rest of the year in Salt Lake City. It has a great old time feel to it. Especially with the white picket fences and amazing mature landscape and trees. Taylor wanted someplace clean with lots of greenery and a bit of a vintage vibe for her bridals. We decided on this great location. She is a beautiful bride and I loved photographing her not only for her bridals but…
