Lauren and Nolo Engagements

Once again I am super behind on blogging! It is the story of my life. Lauren and Nolo are getting married in October. When she booked me she told me that she is a photographer as well. She does more landscapes and detail shots more than portraits. I feel very honored that she booked me. I did Lauren and Nolo's engagements forever ago out at Antelope Island. Can I just say I love that place. It is so great (minus the smell and bugs of course). When we arrived we were walking out onto the beach and there were 2 coyotes maybe 100 feet away chasing bunnies. It was the craziest thing I have ever seen. I felt like I should have been watching the discovery channel instead of in real life. No pictures though, I did not have my telephoto lens with me. Also the wind that night was incredible. It took everything we had to not get hair flying everywhere, which we did anyways, but I loved it! P.S. The sky in these pictures is 100% real. No photoshop needed at all. It was amazing and breathtaking. I have honestly never seen anything more beautiful (besides my children of course). The day of the engagements was super stormy and I thought for a while that we were going to have to reschedule, but the storm passed, minus the wind, and we got this amazingly beautiful sky and clouds. Anyways enjoy....

Heather and Jay's Wedding

Heather was referred to me from her friend Natalie, whose wedding I shot last May. I had such a blast with these two from start to finish. Heather and Jay were just so much fun to work with and had no trouble in front of the camera what-so-ever. On the day of the wedding Heather had to be leaving her house at 8am to make it to the temple in time. At 7:40am she decided that she didn't like her hair and got in the shower. Wow! And needless to say she only left 15 minutes late. What a brave girl! They were married at the Salt Lake Temple and had a luncheon following at the Davis Conference Center. That evening their reception was held in a friend of the family's beautiful yard. It was amazing! Their wedding was so fantastic and I just loved being a part of it. I got to work with an amazing videographer, Matt with Happily Ever After Video, who made my job so easy! If you need a great videographer give these guys a call. Thanks Heather and Jay and I hope you had a great time in the Virgin Islands! Sorry there are so many pictures. I loved so many of them!

Elena and Barney's Wedding

Elena and Barney are both originally from Utah, but are currently living in Las Vegas. They had their wedding at the Bountiful Temple. It was such a hot, hot day! I know they were just dying from the heat. It was a very quiet day at the temple. We were the only ones on the entire temple grounds taking pictures, which is such a change from the last couple of weddings I have done at the Bountiful Temple. It was quite nice. Elena and Barney have been so much fun to work with and get to know. I am sad that their wedding is over. I love this industry because I get to meet and get to know so many great people. These two are no exception. Thanks Elena and Barney and I hope you guys had a great time in San Diego!
