    Fall Pine Valley Engagement Session {Rebecca+Mike}

    November 13, 2014

    I have had the wonderful opportunity to get to know the Childs Family over the years having photographed now three of their daughters. I loved working with Rebecca and Mike for their engagement pictures in Pine Valley Utah. I first meat Rebecca at the wedding of her sister Sarah in Las Vegas a few years back and then got to know her better last year for her sister Jessicas wedding in Las Vegas. These are beautiful and kind people that I just love working with! Rebecca and Mike are truly in love and as so wonderful to hang out with.…

    St George Red Rock Engagement Photos {Shanna+John}

    November 10, 2014

    Many couples travel from all over to come to the breathtaking red rocks of Southern Utah. Shanna & John traveled all the way from Sovanna Georgia one of my favorite areas, to come and do their engagement photos in Snow Canyon State Park. I loved their casual yet dressy southern style. The pink and blue they wore up against the green and red of Snow Canyon was stunning. There are few places as beautiful, and few couples as beautiful either! John is a helicopter pilot for the Army and with that they travel quite a bit. I can’t wait to…

    Pioneer Ruins Engagement {Natalie + Taylor}

    September 20, 2014

    Engagement pictures can be so much fun! Natalie and Taylor are adventurers at heart. They love to go exploring around ghost towns throughout Utah. They loved the idea of doing their engagement photos at this old pioneer farm house ruins in Southern Utah. They are such a cute couple and their love for one another is obvious. I loved their cute style with Natalie’s dress and Taylors Mod black and white dress cloths. The vintage and rustic outdoor vibe make for such a beautiful session. Im so looking forward to photographing their wedding in Northern Utah later this year.

    Sand Dunes Engagement Session {Sarah + Dustin}

    September 13, 2014

    I had the opportunity recently to photograph this lovely couple for their engagement session. A couple years ago I photographed Sarah’s brothers engagement photo session in Snow Canyon. She loved that session so much that she wanted to do her engagement photos in Southern Utah as well. There are so many different spots in the area and I love that we shot in a similar location but with a very different overall feel to the backdrop. Sarah and Dustin are such a beautiful could and I had so much fun laughing and joking around with these two. I loved their…

    High School Senior { Jordan }

    August 30, 2014

    Photographing Seniors for their graduation is so fun. This time of their lives is such a milestone and I love to help them remember it in an artistic way that they and their families can enjoy for years to come. Jordan is a beautiful girl and was great to photograph. Her senior pictures are soft and beautiful which really went along with her personality. Senior Portraits are a session I always enjoy and look forward to. This session in Southern Utah was no exception.

    Desert Landscape Engagement { Kashae + Aaron }

    July 14, 2014

    I love photographing Engaged couples. There really is no happier time the the excitement leading up to a wedding. Kashae and Aaron are such an amazing couple and I absolutely had a blast working with them. Aaron is so funny and cool and Kashae is just so sweet and beautiful. We had a blast! For their engagement photos we really wanted to capture the essence of Southern Utah. The red rocks and rolling desert, and the rivers and ravines. Even a bit of historical rustic architecture as well. I love the landscape of Southern Utah. Its no wonder that so…

    Southern Utah Senior { Cristina }

    July 8, 2014

    Over the years I have had the wonderful opportunity to photograph the Owens girls on several occasions. A couple years ago I did senior photos for Cristina’s Sister Cassidy. Before that their sisters wedding photos several years ago. It is always a treat photographing these beautiful girls. Cristina was so fun to work with and was so great in front of the camera. The family lives in Las Vegas but has family ties to Southern Utah. I loved shooting this rustic St George Senior session and finishing it up at the river. So much fun!!

    June 27, 2014

    I absolutely loved photographing this engagement session. From Washington DC to Southern Utah for their engagement session, Im so glad to be the wedding photographer for Adria and Suj. They are just so wonderful to work with. Photographing their engagement session in St George was fantastic. They are both professionals living in DC though Adria grew up in St George. Their wedding at Entrada later this year is going to be amazing. Suj is Indian and I’m so excited for all of the wonderful traditional dress and color that will be there.

    Its no secret that Snow Canyon is one of the most beautiful State Parks in Utah. This Groomal session with Mikele and Chris was one of my favorites.

    Whitney and Jared are such a stunning couple. I was so thrilled to photograph their engagement session in Southern Utah. They wanted to shoot in a location that really captured the spring time.

    Kanab Utah Wedding { Alexa + Matt }

    April 7, 2014

    Alexa and Matt’s wedding in Kanab Utah was stunning. Photographing them throughout the wedding process has been so great. From doing their engagement pictures, to Alexa’s bridal photos in Snow Canyon, they have been a blast to work with. I loved Alexa’s beautiful home where her wedding took place. Thy have a perfect tuscan style villa that overlooks the canyons below and red rock mesas in the distance. Alexa and her family did all of the decor and setup, which as you can see was extensive and impressive. I felt like I had been transported to Italy for this wedding,…

    Fireman Bridal Photo Session {Liz+Brian}

    April 3, 2014

    Brian is a fireman and Liz thought it would be a lot of fun to include his Turnouts for some of their bridal photos. Turns out it really was! Turnouts are the fire retardant cloths that fireman wear when they fight fires. With the fiery red rock cliffs of Snow Canyon it worked out perfectly. I love photographing couples in Snow Canyon so much. It really is such a serene and yet awe inspiring environment. The day was beautiful as was this couple.
