  • The Oaks At Borne

    February 22, 2019

     

    I took Zoey & Cole’s engagement photos during their road trip through Zion National Park back in 2017. I loved hanging out with them, we clicked right away. A few weeks later they contacted me and asked if I would be willing to come to Texas and photograph their wedding. I had never been to Texas before and I was really excited. I’ve been wanting to do more destination weddings and this sounded like a great opportunity.

    Their wedding venue was at The Oaks at Boerne. This venue is so stunning, its a huge ranch with beautiful fields and large oak trees, pretty different from the Southern Utah venues I’m used to. The owners of the property Mike & Charlotte were so nice and even went out of their way to take us up to an overlook for sunset photos.

    Some of the highlights of this wedding were the attention to detail with the decor and the bride & groom’s fun touches of Lord of the Rings references and music. A butterfly hung out with us during the sunset portrait session and a mariachi band serenaded us during dinner. All in all such a fun night!

    Words from Bride: “Cole and I have known of each other since high school however we didn’t start dating until after college! My best friend and I somehow knew I would end up marrying him, at first it was a joke but I guess we spoke it into existence. We have so much fun together! Hiking and road tripping! We complement each other: Cole is calm and collected and I am the exact opposite.   – Advice for other brides: Enjoy the time with your loved ones how cool is it to have everyone there in one place! Dance dance and dance!!!”

  • Kortney & Neil: Snow Canyon State Park Wedding Photography

    January 21, 2019

    I meet Kortney & Neil for the first time at Snow Canyon State Park to take their formal and first look photos. I love this session not only because these two are adorable together and so very in love, but because the backdrop of Snow Canyon is breathtaking. This was taken in the middle of December, warm or cold, rain or shine, this place is stunning; and add an adorable couple to the mix and you get a winner every time.

  • Monica + Danny: Zion National Park Wedding

    January 16, 2019

    I’m pretty excited to share this wedding photoshoot I did with Monica & Danny in Zion National Park.

    Monica & Danny are from Florida, they had never been to Zion before, so it was fun showing them around. I have to admit I did freak them out a bit when I pull off the side of the road and pointed at the mountain I wanted to climb for the final location! They were really awesome about it though, I let them take brakes when they needed it (living at sea level and hiking in Utah can be a challenge!) and in the end, they were really happy with the views and the final product. I even got a Christmas card from them with a bunch of photos from our adventure which was so cool.

  • Jean & Ben: Zion Wedding

    October 5, 2018

    Jean & Ben are the sweetest people ever. They live in Washington DC and work for an NGO helping to protect all the natural places on our planet. They meet in Paris at a climate conference and fell in love while walking the lamp-lit streets. They decided to have their wedding here in Zion National Park and invited all their friends and family who traveled far and wide, a lot of them all the way from Taiwan and the east coast of the US.
