    Dixie Red Rock Engagement { Mikele + Chris }

    February 14, 2014

    Mikele and Chris made the trip down from Cedar City to do their engagement photos in the Red Rocks of St George. They really love the atmosphere that Southern Utah offers and wanted to capture that in their pictures. We started the session downtown on the streets near Green Gate Village and made our way up to Pioneer Park. Saint George has some of the most amazing landscapes in the world. Its so awesome to be able to access them right in our own back yard. These two were so much fun and Im beyond excited to be working with…

    Snow Canyon Red Rock {Jessica + Matt}

    January 10, 2014

    When couples from out of town tell me they want photos somewhere with red rocks, somewhere that really says Southern Utah, Snow Canyon automatically comes to mind. The sand dunes, the black lava rock, the sage brush and red sand stone cliffs really are an amazing specimen of Southern Utah. Jessica and Matt have been married for several years and recently moved to the area. They were a great couple to work with and I loved seeing them still so in love!

    Snow Canyon Family Photos

    November 27, 2013

    Year round Snow Canyon is a perfect place for family photos. It is always beautiful. The red rock cliffs and amazing views make for the perfect location for any kind of pictures. This session happened to get Snow Canyon when it actually had snow. This is pretty unique. We had an unusual amount of snow this year in St George and as far as photos are concerned I’m glad! I had a great time with this amazing little family and was so glad to have been able to work with them. The day was beautiful though cold and they were…

    Southern Utah Family Photos {Moore Family}

    September 24, 2013

    One of my favorite sessions of each year is photographing the Moore Family. This year we photographed their family at the Kayenta Reservoir. It is a beautiful spot and is a great contrast to some of their previous sessions. I have been working with the Moores for about five years now. We first photographed their family not far from where this session took place. Our next session was quite a bit farther away, but like the beautiful lake in this session water was our inspiration shooting at the beach in San Diego. The Desert of Red Rock in Las Vegas…

    Southern Utah Golf Course Engagement {Chyanne + Brant}

    September 3, 2013

    I have photographed two of Chyanne’s sisters weddings over the years. I absolutely love working with their family. Chyanne and Brants Engagement session in St George at the golf course was fantastic. I love the contrast of colors, not to mention just how cute these two are. St George has so much to offer for backgrounds. Be sure to check out Chyanne’s sister Niclole’s Engagement, Bridal, and Wedding Day.

    Snow Canyon Utah Engagement {Katelyn + Erik}

    August 22, 2013

    Katelyn and Erik’s engagement session was a destination affair for these two. We photographed their session in Snow Canyon State Park . The pictures in the red rocks and black lava rock turned out beautiful. I loved working with these two. Katelyn and Erik’s wedding will be taking place in Zion later this year and I’m so looking forward to being at The Cliffrose to see Forevermore Events work their wedding magic! I can’t wait to work with these two again soon.

    I recently photographed this wonderful family in Santa Clara Utah. Last year I had the opportunity to shoot their wedding photos and was so glad for the opportunity to work with them again.

    Snow Canyon Wedding {Ashley + Chris}

    August 12, 2013

    Its now secret that Snow Canyon is one of the prettiest spots in Southern Utah. What many don’t realize is that you can actually have your wedding in Snow Canyon. I have had the opportunity to be the wedding photographer at a few weddings in Snow Canyon, and it is always a wonderful experience. This small destination wedding for Ashley and Chris was beautiful. They came in from Alaska to have their small wedding in the red cliffs of Snow Canyon. The day was beautiful, and I love the intimate setting of just them and a few friends. The are…

    July 24, 2012

    I loved photographing this wonderful couples engagement pictures. Alyssa and Taylor are an awesome couple. They made the trip up from Las Vegas to Southern Utah for their engagement session in St George. Their engagement session by the Virgin River was a blast! We had a lot of fun, and got a little wet, which with all the heat lately, was not such a bad thing! Photographing engagement sessions is a great opportunity for the couple I am working with to get to know me better, and to get more comfortable in front of the camera. I always love these…
