Liz + Mike {wedding}

Liz and Mike met in their single’s ward. Liz really wanted Mike to ask her out, and when he finally did, they have been inseparable since! Liz also hates winter, so of course on their wedding day, it snowed ALL day long! Liz was such a trooper though, even when her shoes started to bleed (she had got the dyeable shoes and they were an amazing green-but just not mixed with rain!) The night before they had their reception at Eaglewood Golf Course and it stopped snowing right when it started-it was super windy, but no snow. The sunset was amazing. Their family and friends were so much fun to photograph and the kids were hilarious. Thank you Liz and Mike for allowing me to be a part of your special (snowy) day!

Amanda + Pete {engagements}

Amanda and Pete told me they didn’t like getting their pictures taken. But they were so natural and fun together that you would think they loved it! They met at Westminster College at the Olwell dorm and so they wanted to have some of their pictures taken on campus. It got pretty cold towards the end, but the wind made for some nice pictures. I love the hat that Amanda brought-she really pulls off the vintage style well.

Modest Couture by Elizabeth {product shoot}

I met Betsy, the designer of the Modest Couture by Elizabeth’s line, at a bridal show and fell in love with her dresses and with her. She wanted to get some pictures of two of her new dresses and I was happy to take them. She brought two amazing models with her, Katie & Jenny, who were amazing to work with. We ended up having to do it a little earlier in the day than we had planned, but it was really fun to bring out my studio lights in the mid day light and have a challenge! Thanks to Brent from Lomond View Gardens for letting us borrow your amazing cars. I was literally running from place to place trying to get as much as I could in the 90 minutes we had to shoot all of it and it kept us on our toes for sure. Thanks again girls-it was fun!

Jerica + Denton {engagements}

Jerica and Denton are so easy going and love nature. It was a gorgeous, cloudy day today (my favorite) and this couple is so natural together, it was so much fun to shoot. Jera’s mom came along and it was a lot of fun to get to know them all better. I shot at a location I’ve never done pictures at, but was waiting for the right couple and a cloudy day and it all worked out perfectly! We also revisited some of my ghetto spots and when we pulled up people started to scatter. I tell ya, I think I know where the drug deals are going down!! Good times 😀 After I got to go eat at one of my favorite places, La Ferrovia, because I could swear I was smelling their bread while we were shooting!
