    Phoenix Botanical Garden Wedding {Jen+Cory}

    April 20, 2015

    The Botanical Garden in Phoenix is the perfect place for a wedding! When Jen contacted me last year about photographing her wedding there I was beyond excited. I had photographed one of her friends wedding in Phoenix couple years earlier and really enjoyed the amazing ambiance and feel that the botanical garden provides. The complex is huge and has so much to offer in way of different backdrops and views. I love all of the amazing colors and textures. Jen & Cory’s wedding was such a beautiful event. We started the day with Jen getting ready at Valley Ho, a really…

    Tibble Fork Winter Engagement {Carlie+Mickey}

    April 13, 2015

    Ohh where to start with this stunning couple?! Photographing the engagement session of Carlie & Mickey up the Alpine Loop at Tibble Fork Reservoir might just have been the highlight of my winter. Its true that this has been the driest and warmest winter I can remember in Utah so that fact that we had snow and cool weather for this winter engagement photo session made it extra special. Thats not the only reason I love it so much though. Im not even going to get to the fact that this might be the prettiest couple of all time yet.…

    Southern Utah Indian Wedding Teaser {Adria & Suj }

    February 15, 2015

    Utah, Hindu Wedding Photographer A wedding at Entrada at Snow Canyon has always been one of my favorite venues in Southern Utah to photograph. This wedding which was coordinated by Middle Aisle was an absolute jaw dropping inspiration! Indian Hindu weddings are full of color, life, excitement and tradition but being as this was a half indian wedding and half western it really had a touch of the east meats west. Adria is originally from St George and wanted to be married here. All of Suj’s family came in from out of stater or country. Almost all of their friends…

    February 10, 2015

    Jade and Ben both live in Southern Utah and love the Toquerville area. We were lucky enough to photograph their engagements at a big pond that belongs to one of Ben’s friends. I loved the look and feel of this beautiful engagement session. Jade is originally from Haiti in the Caribbean and has such a sweet presence about her. Together she and Ben make such a beautiful couple. We had a lot of fun photographing their engagement photos around the pond just relaxing and having a great time!

    St George LDS Temple Bridal Photos {Mckell+Trumbull}

    January 10, 2015

    A wedding at the St George LDS Temple is an important event Southern Utah. For over a hundred and fifty years couples have come from all around the wold to be married for time and all eternity within its walls.  Mckell and Trumbull didn’t have to make an long trek to come to the temple but it makes it no less important to them. They are such a fun and beautiful couple and I have really enjoyed getting to work with them over the planning and adventure of their wedding. St George is such an amazing and beautiful location for a…

    Phoenix Arizona Maternity Photos {Stephanie+Ali}

    December 25, 2014

    As a wedding photographer I get to travel all over the world photographing beautiful weddings and events. A few years ago I photographed the wedding of Stephanie and Ali in Phoenix. I am so excited for these two and the amazing things happening in their lives. When Stephanie contacted me about photographing their maternity photos I was thrilled. I love working with these two and couldn’t be more thrilled for them. I first meat Stephanie and Ali when photographing their engagement photos in Silver Reef a few years back. We did a really special bridal session at the Phoenix botanical gardens…

    Silver Lake Reservoir Engagement Photos {Abbi+Andrew}

    December 15, 2014

    I recently had the wonderful opportunity to photograph this beautiful couples engagement photos up Big Cottonwood Canyon at Silver Lake near Brighton. What a stunning couple and location. I love the fall colors of yellow and orange mixed with the green of the pines and the beautiful lake and mountains. So amazing. When photographing a couple I really like to have a good time and get to know who they are as a couple. I had a fantastic time with Abbi and Andrew laughing together and enjoying the beautiful scenery. The cold fall air hit as soon as the sun…

    Alpine Loop Bridal Photos {Joelle+Kyle}

    December 7, 2014

    Driving up the alpine loop in the fall for wedding related photos is absolutely stunning. I had the amazing chance to photograph Joelle and Kyle at Tibble Fork Reservoir in Utah off of the Alpine Loop. The fall colors were in full force and the backdrop was absolutely stunning. I had the opportunity to do their engagement photography in Southern Utah a few months earlier and loved working with them then. They have such a fun and carefree style and attitude about them. They are an absolutely beautiful couple and I loved their fresh style. There isn’t a bad time…

    Southern Utah Lake Engagement Photos {Abby+Mike}

    December 1, 2014

    Being a wedding photographer in Utah lends to so many possibilities for amazing locations. For Abby and Mikes engagement photography we decided to do something very outdoorsy but with a Southern Utah feel to it. They loved the idea of being near the water. We started the session on a bit of an adventure and ended up in a wash and small stream. The previous week we had some heavy flooding in St George so this area looked different then any time I had been there in the past. It was a lot of fun minus the quicksand that we…

    I have always thought Heber and Midway would be amazing places to do engagement photos. When Jessica and Jordan left picking the location to me I know that this was the place. I love the lighting of the sun setting behind the mountains. The valley is just so stunning. Speaking of stunning, these two are absolutely gorgeous. They have known each other from high school and make the perfect pair. I had such a great time with the two of them photographing their engagement session. I love the cloths that Jessica picked out, especially the big hat. So fun! Heber…

    Aspen Meadows Pre Wedding {Oriana+Phillip}

    November 22, 2014

    I always love photographing couples at new and beautiful locations. This amazing venue outside of Kamas Utah was stunning. Its called Aspen Grove at Wolf Creek. It is absolutely stunning and is the venue for Oriana and Phillips wedding later this year. Nestled in the hills of aspen forest lies the beautiful log cabin inspired three story venue. The only thing that was more beautiful then this location was the stunning couple. Oriana’s wedding dress which she found in Seattle Washington was the perfect gown with Gatsby inspired art deco cues. The beautiful bouquet and floral headpiece by Blom Floral…
