What a fun summer day. I meet the Gregorie family at the Court of the Patriarchs trailhead and we took a short hike to my favorite spot. July & August is so hot, but this location is perfect when the sun goes behind the cliffs and cools everything down.
There is a hiking trail pretty close to where I live and I always looked out at the views and thought, “this would be an awesome place to do a photo session, I need to take a couple out here.” It’s a bit of a hike so I needed a couple that was willing to make the treck with me. When Sarah & Brigham came along I knew they would be perfect. They are both really into fitness and have the most positive attitudes.
I had this idea of how the session would look in my head and it exceeded all my own expectations. So excited I finally got to shoot here!
We had some amazing vendors help out for this session.

Sarah is an amazingly talented hairstylist at Lunatic Fringe so she did her won hair for this session. She really is the best in St. Geroge so if you want a cut, color or both ask for Sarah Nielsen!
I have this amazing 50’s Rolleiflex camera and I was able to do part of this senior boy’s session on with black & white film. I love how they turned out and my clients loved them too. If you think this is cool hit me up! I would love to collaborate and do something like this again.
Many of these photos were taken in Downtown St. Geroge Utah, mostly in a parking garage! It just goes to show you can make cool portraits anywhere.
I had the pleasure of photographing the Macintyre family at some incredible slot canyons in Page Arizona. I had never been out here before so it was a really new and fun experience. We meet at Horseshoe Bend Slot Canyon Tours and got into the back of the offroad vehicle and took a ride through the desert for about 15-20 minutes before we arrived at the slot canyon. Our tour guide was very nice and gave us extra time in the slot canyon for taking photos. I would highly recommend this adventure and I’ll come back anytime if any of you want family photos done here!
