  • Kyle & Garett: Zion National Park Fall Wedding

    August 22, 2019

    I had the pleasure of photographing Kyle & Garett’s formal session in Zion National Park a while back. I can’t believe I never blogged this one because we hit the fall colors perfectly, and these two are just amazing and I had so much fun working with them. In this session we did two locations, the first was an area that I’ve found by hiking around, and the 2nd is the Canyon Overlook Trail.

    For those of you who are thinking about scheduling a fall photo session in Zion National Park here are a few things to consider. This session was taken on October 14th. There are two sides to Zion, the “Canyon” section and the “East Side”. Most of my sessions are on the East Side for a few reasons. 1- You can drive your car and not have to deal with the shuttles as you do in the canyon. 2- There are much fewer people up here which is a huge plus. 3- The east side of the park is higher in elevation so its cooler in the summer. 4- The landscape is easier to photograph in general since there is more light.

    Since it is higher in elevation the leaves change up here in October, and in the Canyon, they start changing in November. The east side has more reds and the canyon has mostly yellows. Here is a link to an example of a canyon Elopement on November 9th so you can compare the two.

  • Fall Bridal Inspiration

    May 12, 2017

    This vibrant fall bridal was straight out of a fairytale. The rich autumn hues of the stunning bouquet from Bloomers transitioned perfectly from the golds of sunset to the soft pinks and blues of twilight. Tracy Sotirakis styled our bride up beautifully and made her look how we all dream of looking on our wedding day. Bell Tower Bridal custom made this stunning dress with all the lacy detail that is just to die for. Be prepared to fall in love with this session!

  • Brittany + Rafele Zion National Park Elopement

    February 15, 2017

    This elopement was so much fun and full of personality. Brittany and Rafael are from Florida, it was great helping them plan their destination wedding to Zion National Park. We meet up at the Court of the Patriarchs to take a few pre-ceremony photos, then headed to the Temple of Sinawava for the ceremony. This is one of my favorite wedding locations in Zion. The peaceful vibes of this group fit in so well with the beautiful surroundings. Another plus to this wedding is that it was in November which means peak fall foliage! Favorite time to shoot in Zion!
