Rendi and Greg are married now, and I’ll post pics from their reception soon, but here are Rendi’s bridal portraits! We started at The Cameo and then went on to my favorite secret garden spot. A storm was approaching and the light faded early behind dark clouds, so we had some fun with off camera lighting and the wind Check it out. Play button lower left.

Scott and Karlee were married this past weekend, so I can now post her bridal portraits! We did these at my favorite garden to shoot at and the light was perfect Check back next week to see their wedding photos, it was a beautiful wedding! Here’s a handful of favorites from Karlee’s bridal shoot. To view the slideshow with music, click the play button at lower left.

Beautiful pictures capturing the love these two share as they are about to be married was important to them. Since capturing those kinds of pictures on their wedding day was not going to be possible, we did them on a day when we could choose the time and have a relaxing session. It was so much fun! Even Tobin seemed to enjoy it The weather was unseasonably nice, the light was great, we didn’t get kicked off the upper deck of the Conference Center – a rare experience for me! Then in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, a tour guide actually asked Tobin to play the piano when he found out he was a concert level pianist. And wow, it was amazing to hear him play Congratulations and have a wonderful wedding week you two! You’re beautiful together!

Since Kelsey and Josh wanted some great couple pictures and time would be limited on their wedding day, they decided to do a pre-wedding shoot so we could take our time AND take advantage of that beautiful late afternoon light. It was so worth it! We had lots of fun and there are SO many great places to shoot there on and around Temple Square. In case you’re wondering about the scenes where Josh is lifting Kelsey in the air, these two are dancers on the BYU-I dance team and they are amazing! If you’ve ever seen them perform, you know what I’m talking about. They also wanted some video and hired Denver Riddle from HD Wedding Events and it was so fun working alongside him. I’ve posted a few of my favorite shots from this session and at the end is the video that Denver shot from this day that was shown at their reception the following evening. Be sure to watch it because it is totally awesome! And I’ll be posting their wedding day pics soon:)

Here’s Denver getting his shot in, and below is the video…

Now that Kelsey and Josh are happily married, I can post Kelsey’s bridals! I just love bridal sessions and this one was just so fun. We did them at the secret garden place which is just the greatest place for bridals. Nadine, Kelsey’s mom, was there to help and she ended up being a great off camera lighting assistant when the daylight was gone early thanks to some dark clouds. But what a great backdrop they made! Kelsey and Josh had an awesome wedding and I’ll blog some of those pics soon…they’re so cute together!

Now that Megan and Dana are happily married, I can post Megan’s bridals! Megan is just the sweetest girl and it was so fun getting to know her and her mother a little better while doing her bridals. Megan and Dana had a beautiful wedding by the river and I’ll be posting some from that day just as soon as they’re ready.

And now for Kacee’s bridals! We had such a great session out at my favorite secret garden spot. Everything was so beautiful! And isn’t her gown just gorgeous? Kacee and Dallas had a fun and beautiful wedding in Montana and I’ll be posting some of those pics very soon!

I can finally share Amy’s bridal portraits since she and Mark are now happily married:) These were taken at my favorite secret garden and goes so beautifully with bridal portraits. Mark and Amy had a beautiful wedding and I’m processing it now. I’ll post some favorites from it next week.

These pics are from Jamie and Riley’s pre-wedding shoot at Salt Lake’s Temple Square. There are so many beautiful places to shoot there and the autumn colors were just vibrant! We had too much fun. Is that possible? These two are so cute together that a tourist asked if he could take their picture. I of course grabbed the shot of the photographer taking the shot and it’s posted below. Loved his T-shirt;)
