    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.…

    Indian Sikh Utah Wedding Teaser

    September 10, 2016

    Utah Indian Sikh Wedding Indian Wedding Photographer I recently had the absolute pleasure to photograph a stunning Indian Wedding at the Grand America in Salt Lake City Utah. The Grand America is a stunning venue for any wedding, but was perfect for this amazing Indian wedding. I have photographed other Hindu weddings in the past, but this was the first Sikh Wedding I have had the pleasure to photograph. They are so different from one another. Both have the beautiful and vibrant prints and colors that Indian weddings are known for, but it was wonderful learning about this different culture…

    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.

This was a destination wedding for the two. They were married at the St George Temple, where we meat up with all of their friends and family who visited from out of town. We then took the trip over to Snow Canyon to capture some of the beauty that Southern Utah has to offer. They are such a fun and dynamic couple. I had a great time taking them around to…

    Coalville Southfork Lodge Wedding {Nora+George}

    August 23, 2016

    South fork Lodge Utah Wedding Utah Wedding Photographer Located near Coalville and not far from Park City and Salt Lake is this quaint hunting lodge and wedding venue. I love the areas around Park City for a Wedding. Nora and George were married at the Southfork Lodge and it was absolutely stunning. Their decor and setup by Hoops Weddings & Events, was a mix of geology, which is what they both do for a living… and old world rustic charm. I loved Nora’s stunning lace wedding gown by Betsy Couture, and George’s three piece wool suit. They had great style…

    Entrada at Snow Canyon Wedding {Macy+Heath}

    August 17, 2016

    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,…

    July 16, 2016

    In the Uinta Mountains high above Heber Jessica and Marcus had a stunning wedding at the top of the world. The views from the mountains down into the rallies below made for an absolutely breathtaking wedding backdrop. Four wheel drive was a must to get up to the location for their wedding ceremony. Nestled in the high grass and rolling mountains their wedding ceremony had their closes friends and family in attendance. Not to mention hoards of sheep grazing the pastures below. The day was beautiful with absolutely perfect weather. I loved spending time photographing these two and their wonderful…

    Blue Sky Ranch Winter Wedding {Jen+Keegan}

    July 1, 2016

    Winter Park City Wedding Blue Sky Ranch is one of my favorite wedding venues in all of Utah. The rolling hills and mountains make for a perfect backdrop for a rustic or an elegant wedding. The Ceremony and Reception for Jen and Keegan were held by the big blue barn at Blue Sky. Prior to their ceremony, the two had a first look in the falling snow. The High West Distillery on the property was the perfect backdrop.  We were able to get all of their couples and wedding party photos out of the way prior to the ceremony. It was important…

    White Rock Desert Engagement {Aimee+Brandon}

    June 7, 2016

    Over the years I have had the great opportunity to photograph some of Aimee’s good friends weddings. I was so happy when she contacted me about photographing this amazing time in her and Brandon’s lives. The two of them were to totally open to me choosing the location when it came to photographing their engagement session. I had scouted out this spot last year and had been waiting for the right shoot to do here. The white rock and unique formations were stunning. I love shooting in the desert at sunset. The light gets so perfect. We couldn’t have asked…

    Sand Hallow Lake Pre Wedding {Courtney+Travis}

    May 30, 2016

    Is there anything more dramatic then Blue water contrasting with the orange colored rock of Southern Utah?! Courtney and Travis are having their wedding at Sand Hallow so it seemed appropriate to do their pre wedding photo session at the Lake at Sand Hallow. I loved Travis’ reaction as he saw Courtney walk up in her stunning BHLDN dress for the first time. The amazing floral by Bloomers was the perfect complement. The day was beautiful and so were these two. We hiked around to some pretty phenomenal locations, finally ending up cliffside high above the azure water below. Luckily…

    Southern Utah Spring Engagement {Amanda+Mason}

    May 16, 2016

    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…
