Katarina + Jace {wedding}

It was the BUSIEST day I’ve EVER seen at the Bountiful Temple….EVER. I think there were 3 groups on the stairs and 1 out front, and a bride & groom on ever spot at the temple. Luckily, by the time Katarina and Jace got out, most everyone had cleared out! If you are wondering why I chose so many of Jace & Katarina looking at each other, well, they are happiest when they look at each other-so it shows in the pictures!!! I really did take some of them looking at me-they just are super in love with each other! The weather turned out to be perfect for the reception & the bouquet toss was hilarious-take a peak 😀 This was the last of 4 weddings I shot that week….long week, but super fun with great couples and families! Thanks Hannah & Ryan for hanging out with us for pictures & for the yummy concrete at Nielsons!

Savannah + Kevin {wedding}

We had such great light at the temple the day of Savannah & Kevin’s wedding-luckily I had a great 2nd photographer, Corbin Allred, holding my reflector to make it even prettier in those sun over the head shots! Savannah & Kevin are such an amazing couple. Savannah is such a gorgeous person (inside & out) with amazing style, and Kevin has more will-power & determination than anyone I have ever met! Thanks for letting me be a part of your day and I’m so sad I couldn’t be there for the reception in Green River. Oh and PS-I LOVE LOVE LOVE Savannah’s mom ;D She totally reminds me of one of my best friend’s mom who I love to pieces too (Kelly-talking about your mom, Rachel!!)

Michelle + Brock {Wedding}

Michelle & Brock were married on my 10 year anniversary. It turned out to be a great day at the temple, hot but not horrible! It was so great to be at the same place I was married in and remember what a great day it was at the temple (even if all of Main Street was under construction and we didn’t really get any pictures with the whole temple it in!). Michelle and Brock are SUPER nice and thoughtful and all of their family and friends were too. Michelle is really good friends with one of my brides from April, Danielle-who is also a sweetheart. I can do all of their friends weddings if they are all this nice! This was also the day I started to lose my voice–little did I know how sick I would get for the next two weeks. Luckily I’m feeling so much better now and have tons to catch up on.

Ruthann + Jason {wedding}

I flew out to do Ruthie and Jason’s wedding in Ohio. The night before they had a rehearsal dinner on a yacht on the Ohio River. We saw some of the Red’s game from the ship and a beautiful sunset over Cincinnati. The next day it was off to the Louisville, Kentucky LDS Temple for their temple sealing, then off to Cincinnati again to get some bridal pictures in the HOTTEST weather I’ve ever taken pictures in, and finally to their ring ceremony and reception/formal dinner at the Oscar Events Center. They gave their guests “Love Spoons” from Wales as favors and ended the night with a firework show that was quite spectacular.
