Brittany + Jeff {formals}

Man yesterday was SUPER windy! My assistant almost blew away holding the reflector! We started on Antelope Island and decided to leave before sunset because the wind was so bad. At least it blew away the bugs 😀 Brittany and Jeff just laughed about getting blown away in a hurricane. Hannah Goodrich did her hair and make up and Jeff couldn’t stop saying how much he loved Brittany’s hair. It was so cute 😀 We started with a first look and I told Jeff to close his eyes until I told him to open them. He squeezed his eyes so tight it was like watching a little kid when you are about to give them a surprise.

Kayla + Austin {engagements}

This was the second day in a row I shot with rain chasing me! Everytime we would stop to take pictures, the rain would start a few minutes later. We had quite the entourage with us-Kayla’s mom, dad, grandma, Austin’s mom and my assistant/former bride/friend of Kayla’s Brittnie 😀 We had a great time literally running from place to place. We brought along my pink couch and they brought some cute bikes. The one that Austin was riding was really hard to ride and try to hold Kayla’s hand, but it was really funny to watch! We ended on a dock (not going to say how we got on there…wait there is a picture I think ;D hehe and they danced in the rain. Good times for sure! Thanks everyone for the adventure!!

McCall + Mike {wedding}

What a day this was! I started the bad luck by dropping my lens right before family pictures and totally breaking it. Then McCall’s brother {her brothers are acrobats-just look at the picts!} got a bloody nose doing a hand stand, then one of their guests fell down the stairs of the temple. Luckily once family picts were over it was good luck from then on out! Her family is hilarious and kept cracking up Ryan and I (Ryan Hinman was their videographer).

Lauren + Jake {formals}

It was POURING rain and snow all day the day we took these pictures. It actually rained until just twenty minutes before we got to the Salt Flats. We were praying it would stop and we got our wish-SUPER SUNNY (not warm) but REALLY sunny. I wore my rain boots just in case, so I was super styling out there ;D Jake and Lauren are really easy to photograph, so that made it fun. Lauren’s brother Ryan came a long too and shot an amazing film for them (watch it below). So worth the drive for sure!!! Her dress is from the Bride’s Shop; Hair and Make-Up by Moore Design-these girls came out with us to put Lauren’s hair up so she could have two looks. Jake’s suit was custom made.

Maddi + Jesse {wedding}

Maddi and Jesse had a gorgeous DIY Barn wedding in Springville. A lot of my clients end of being friends/family to me and this is one of those. Maddi’s mom made almost all of the decor. She said she has burlap busting out of her house now, so if anyone needs some, let her know! She did such an amazing job!! I loved all the antiques in the barn and really loved all of the emotion throughout the day. Maddi was one of the happiest brides I’ve ever seen. I bet her cheeks hurt from smiling so much-I loved it! Seriously all of the details in this wedding were just amazing. Maddi’s mom put a lot of love into this for sure!!

Amanda + Ben {formals}

Amanda and Ben wanted to do a preshoot at the temple a couple weeks before their wedding and they were sure glad they did. It was so busy and we just loved that we just needed to get family shots and a couple of them and be done. It made for a stress free temple day for sure. We also did a first look at the capital and Ben was SOOO excited to see Amanda. He just kept saying “You look SO GOOD!!!” You couldn’t wipe that smile off his face. I loved it.
