Sunny and Justin

On September 16th I had the honor and privilege of being Sunset and Justin's wedding photographer at Ivy Lane Reception Center in Ogden. Can I just say that I have fallen so in love with this family, they have totally welcomed me in as one of their own. After the wedding we became so close that Skye (Sunny's sister) and Pam (Sunny's mom) invited me and my family to Tayzhia's (Sunny's niece) 5th birthday party. I was feeling sad when the wedding was over because I didn't want it to be over and not see them again. So I am way stoked that I have been adopted into their family. I have officialy been dubbed as the "Family Photographer." I am so glad that I was chosen to preserve their day and I absolutely love that we have become such great friends and "family".

Nikki and Nick

Ok, so seriously, this was one of my favorite weddings and I absolutely love the bride and groom. I have grown so close to Nikki and Nick as well as their family over the past couple of months. Kara (Nikki's Sister-in-Law) is just the sweetest soul you will ever meet and I absolutely loved spending the day with all of Nikki and Nick's Family. I shot their wedding on Friday September 8th at the Salt Lake Temple and then their reception which was held at Eaglewood Golf Course in Bountiful Utah. It was raining before the temple photos and shortly after we finished so it worked out perfectly. I rained a torrential down pour for the rest of the evening though, but it was still a very beautiful reception. I was and am so sad that the wedding is over, I am gonna miss working will these guys.

Tyson and Desa

Ok, did you guys miss me? I have been so crazy busy with 4 weddings in 4 days. It started on Thursday September 14th with Tyson and Desa's Wedding held at Tyson's Mother's residence in Syracuse Utah. It was a windy day but the rain held out until later that night. It was a beautiful ceremony and the family was so nice and made me feel right at home. They made homemade salsa for the reception and it was delicious and spicy just the way I like it. Tyson's mom sent me home with a bottle. Thank you so much guys for letting me be a part of your special day. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

Julie and Brad

On September 9th I travelled to Evanston Wyoming for Julie and Brad's wedding and man did we luck out with the weather. When I arrived it was raining quite heavily and then quickly turned into hail. Luckily it subsided and turned out to be a bright sun shiny day for the ceremony. Here are a couple of my favorite images from the day.

Josh and Jenine

On September 8th I shot Josh and Jenine's Wedding at the First Presbyterian Church in SLC and then the reception was held at the Davis County Golf Course in Kaysville Utah. Josh and Jenine had taken some dance lessons for their first dance. They are such a cute couple and know that they will make each other very happy.

To Be Continued.......

Ok, sorry it's been a while since my last post, to keep you guys updated, I shot a wedding on September 8th, and another wedding on September 9th, I will be posting about those in the next couple days. Then I will have shot 4 consecutive weddings on September 14th thru September 17th, so I have been very busy. I will posting images from all 6 weddings this coming week as well as a model photoshoot that I did at Layton Park. So stay tuned.....

Sunset

Tonight, I had the pleasure of shooting bridals for my good friend Sunset. We worked together at Citi Group in Layton. Sunset is one of the most caring I have ever known, at work we both served on the community involvement committee and I recall a time we were collecting christmas gifts for families in need and Sunset had called a country radio station to see if they would be willing to donate some concert tickets to one of the children who wanted to see a concert. The radio dj told her that is not the spirit of christmas and if it meant anything she should buy them for the kid himself. How could anyone deny such a sweet girl with a big heart. I am honored to be your photographer Sunset. I will be posting more shots later, but here are a few of my favorite shots so far.

Tripod and Self Timer

For Labor Day, we finally had all of the family together so we decided to update our family pictures (our last one we had taken was probably 4 years ago) and since all my photographer friends were busy for the holiday, my friend tripod and self timer decided to help me out. Last night we all stayed up late at my parent's house and played poker and partied all night long. I absolutely love spending time with my family and am so grateful that we all get along. After pictures, we went to the playground and let the kids play on the toys, they had such a blast. Here are a couple of the photos that didn't suck... too bad.

Details

Tonight, Tiffany and I drove out to Spanish Fork to second shoot for my best friend Rachael. It was Tiffany and Danny's wedding and I was able to get lots of great detail shots since I was the second shooter. The decorations were absolutely gorgeous, with colors of brown and pink. They had one of the neatest cakes I have seen so far. I just got a new Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens, so I got to try it out finally and got some cool close up shots. Here are a couple of my favorite shots.
