    Provo Engagement in the Snow {Carol Ann+Austin}

    April 24, 2017

    Provo Wedding Photographer Utah Valley Snow Engagement Photos I travel very often to the Provo and Utah Valley area for wedding and engagement photos. I always enjoy photographing couples in Provo, especially in beautiful snowy weather like Carol Ann and Austin had. Provo Snow Engagement Photos are always a great time! The snow was falling, and because it was a cloudy day, it wasn’t as cold as it could have been. I already blogged Carol Ann and Austin’s Payson Temple Wedding, and was so slammed that I forgot to blog their engagements and bridals. Im excited to be sharing them with…

    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…

    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.…

    Toniquent Gardens Wedding {Ali+Cory}

    March 6, 2017

    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…

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…

    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…

    Winter Zion National Park Engagement {Braden+Sara}

    January 4, 2017

    Engagement Proposals in Zion National park happen all year long, but the winter is the off season for Zion National Park. People don’t associate Zion with snow, but we do get it from time to time, and when it happens, it is beyond breathtaking. I loved photographing the engagement of Sara and Braden in Zion National Park in the winter. I love the warmth of the red and orange sandstone mixed with the cold snow. It makes for such beautiful and interesting photo backdrops. As a wedding photographer in Southern Utah I have the opportunity to work often in Zion,…

    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…

    Snow Canyon Pre Wedding {Brittney+Tyler}

    Snow Canyon Utah Wedding Location Southern Utah Wedding Photographer Zion National Park is so appealing for weddings and adventure, but can often be busy with tourists. Less known, but equally spectacular in its own way, Snow Canyon State Park is an absolutely stunning location for a wedding. After photographing the first half of Brittney and Tyler’s pre wedding at the St George temple, we made the quick trip over to Snow Canyon to capture some of the splendor that Southern Utah has to offer. I always love photographing weddings and engagements in Snow Canyon. The towering sandstone cliffs of red…

    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…
