Jess and Jason are a laid back, outgoing couple. I really enjoyed working with them. For their engagement session, we stopped at my favorite hidden nature park off a busy street and then, checked out State Street in Murray for a different look.
Perhaps I’m pointing out the obvious. In the last photo, I think it’s pretty cool how there’s a heart on the near wall and Jess and Jason’s shadows make a heart shape on the far wall. I’m not usually a heart person, but I like this.
Kaitlyn and Derek are a great couple. She loves to laugh and he loves it when she laughs. We got together for their engagement session in Salt Lake City, when it was a little warmer, as you can see. They dressed perfectly for their session–classic and stylish. I loved Kaitlyn’s heels. They looked great! Congratulations, Kaitlyn and Derek.
I’ve been meaning to post this great session from back in December. Sometimes (okay, a lot of the time), albums, portraits, and wedding edits take precedent over blog posts, so I have a little archive of sessions and weddings to show off.
John and Sarah are from Nashville, Tennessee. John is a talented professional photographer himself, so when he contacted me to photograph his engagement session during their visit to Park City, I was flattered. I also got to be in on a little secret. John was going to propose the day before our session, on a horse drawn carriage in the snow.
John and Sarah were a joy to be around and the session couldn’t have been better.
Jen and Jeff are easy-breezy. They didn’t get caught up in all the trappings of wedding planning. In fact, they decided to get married in Fiji with only their parents in attendance. I really tried to get them to bring me along, but that didn’t work out, but I did get to photograph their engagement photos, bridal portraits, and Utah wedding reception.
We started with their engagement photo session, to which they brought their skateboards. Jeff sped off on his every chance he got. By the way, I did ride a skateboard back in the day and could even do an ollie–not too shabby for a girl. ;) So, this fun shoot was right up my alley.
Oh, and a semi-truck hit me in the leg while I was photographing Jen and Jeff. Sometimes, I get so wrapped up in what I’m doing, I forget what’s around me. I was in front of the bay the driver was pulling out of and he didn’t see me. It just left a bruise, but it definitely woke me up!
Laurel and Morgan are getting married in about a week at the Salt Lake City LDS Temple, with a reception to follow at a private residence in Holladay, Utah. I really dig their style, so I’m looking forward to seeing their garden reception decor in navy and green, with a vintage feel. Don’t you just love Morgan’s dapper vest and linen pants, and Laurels super-cute skirt? The backdrop of this hidden nature park was perfect for a J.Crew kind of look for their engagement photo session. See you two on August 12th!
