    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…

    It no wonder that people travel from all over the world to visit Southern Utah and partake of its splendor. Snow Canyon State Park has to be one of the most stunning places on the planet!

    St George Golf Course Bridal {Jessica+Jordan}

    November 20, 2015

    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…

    Summer Golf Course Engagement {Mckell+Tui}

    November 6, 2015

    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…

    Desert Green Engagement {Tisha+Tyler}

    September 25, 2015

    When thinking of Southern Utah for Engagement or Wedding photos most automatically think of the desert red rocks. St George can offer such a wide variety of looks though for these beautiful photo sessions. I often ask couples that I am photographing what kind of a look or a feel they want to go for. Many love the red rock look, which is great and obviously so prevalent throughout Southern Utah. There are those though that want to have lush landscapes of life with lots of green. The rivers that flow through the area have brought people here since the…

    Lava Rock Engagement {Maddy+Landon}

    August 17, 2015

    Maddy and Landon made the recent trip up from Las Vegas to do their engagement photos in the beautiful lava fields by Snow Canyon in Southern Utah. They are such a fun couple and were so great to be around. We had a great photo session full of laughs and beautiful backdrops.

    Photographing Nora & George’s Engagement session in Snow Canyon State Park was an absolute blast! The two are geologists and don’t live in the area but wanted to come down to Southern Utah and take advantage of some of the amazing Snow Canyon rock formations and scenery. I love Southern Utah and all of the beautiful color and texture it has to offer. The rock formations are so unique, and it is no wonder that people travel from all over to enjoy its beauty.

    Red Rock Utah Engagement {Courtney+Kirk}

    July 10, 2015

    Snow Canyon State Park is a wonderful spot for engagement and wedding photos. It is a 7,400-acre scenic park quietly tucked amid lava flows and soaring sandstone cliffs in a strikingly colorful and fragile desert environment. Majestic views and the subtle interplay of light, shadow, and color dancing across canyon walls evoke strong emotional responses. I loved exploring around Snow Canyon with Courtney and Kirk for their engagement photography session. We went from the black lava rock and petrified sand dunes to the white sandstone cliffs of Snow Canyon. Courtney and Kirk are so in love and are honestly the…

    Dixie Red Rock Engagement {Erin+John}

    June 26, 2015

    There is no shortage of stunning red rock locations in Souther Utah. Erin & John knew that they wanted to be surrounded by the walls of sandstone for their engagement photos. The two are going to school at BYU, though Erin’s family live in the St George area. They will be married in Southern Utah and I’m so thrilled for them. John is such a gentleman and seems to truly respect and love everything about Erin. Erin is so sweet and so much fun. I loved laughing with these two while photographing their engagement session in Southern Utah!

    Utah Indian Hindu Wedding {Adria+Sujeet}

    June 6, 2015

    I had the opportunity recently to photograph the wedding of an amazing couple! Adria and Sujeet were married in a traditional Hindu ceremony in front of the red cliffs of Snow Canyon at Entrada Golf Club. I absolutely love photographing weddings at Entrada. It is a stunning venue with so much to offer. The two met and live in Washington, DC, but created a “destination” wedding experience for their guests in Adria’s hometown of St. George. The wedding was recently published on Style Me Pretty, which is always such an honor! Their favorite part of the reception was the sparkler entrance…
