Fun engagements in the mountains, yes please!💍🏔️

This post has been a long time coming haha! You guys are keeping me so busy and I am doing all I can to keep up. I am so grateful for the support I have received and all of your patience as I work to edit your galleries. I can’t wait to share everything that I have been working on!

The perfect newborn session does exist!💕

I absolutely loved capturing one of my best friends and her new family of four! Millie is the sweetest and is the perfect addition to their family! I had the hardest time choosing which photos to pick, there are so many more that I couldn’t fit!

✨Jessica + Brady (Pt. 1)✨

These two were so fun to photograph! Every detail from the shoes to the location was absolutely perfect and the weather cooperated just in time for the perfect photos! Be ready for part 2 coming soon!!💕

Introducing black and white to the feed!🖤🤍

Hello everyone! I thought it was about time for me to introduce myself and show you the face behind the camera!

Here are a few things to know about me:
•I have been happily married for 6 years and have two sweet babies! They are my whole world! Being a mom is my favorite job!🌎

•I have been doing photography for almost three years and just purchased my first mirrorless camera a few months ago! To say that I am obsessed would be an understatement.📷

•I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints!🤍

•When I am not taking photos or editing, I love to be outside spending time with my kids. We all love going on walks together and playing at the park.🛝

•I am not a huge movie watcher but I do love a good TV show!📺

•I love to sing and play the piano! My family is very musical and I grew up singing in a family band while my dad, brothers, and various other family members played a variety of instruments! I am a country music fan through and through!🎶

•I grew up on a ranch in the middle of nowhere in Wyoming. My favorite place on earth is being home on the ranch with my puppy exploring and spending time outside! I will forever be a small town girl!🌾

•I love interior design and find so much joy in decorating my little apartment!🏠

I would love to get to know you a little better! Tell me something about you in the comments below!👇🏻

I was so happy to be a part of Grace and Daniel’s elopement! We had some crazy weather and extreme wind but these two didn’t complain once. Thank you for letting me witness and capture your love on this special day!

Let’s take bridals in the mountains!🏔️

Brides, have you considered taking bridal photos before or after your wedding day?

Here are a few good reasons to consider taking some photos beforehand:

1. Reduce wedding day stress: Taking bridal photos before the wedding reduces the stress of fitting in a lengthy photo session on the actual day, allowing for a more relaxed experience.

2. Weather: By scheduling in advance, you can choose a day with ideal weather conditions, ensuring better photos.

3. Hair and Makeup Trial: It serves as a trial run for your hair and makeup, giving you a chance to make any adjustments before the big day.

4. Location Flexibility: You have more flexibility to choose a unique or significant location that might not be feasible on the wedding day.

5. Time Efficiency: It allows more time on your wedding day for celebrating with guests instead of being away for photos.

6. Creative Freedom: You can take your time to experiment with different poses and settings, resulting in more creative and diverse shots.

Happy Thursday!🌼
Stayed tuned! More from this beautiful March wedding (shot with ) is coming soon!😍

Cuddles and cozy vibes always!🤎

Should you wear a veil on your wedding day? As a wedding photographer I say yes! Here are a few reasons why I love when a bride chooses to wear a veil on her wedding day!👰🏼‍♀️

1. Tradition: Veils are a traditional bridal accessory symbolizing purity, modesty, and reverence.
2. Elegance: Veils can enhance the bridal look, adding a touch of romance and sophistication.
3. Photos (My favorite reason☺️): Veils can create stunning visual effects in wedding photos, especially when caught by the wind or backlighting.
4. Privacy: A veil can provide a sense of privacy and intimacy during special moments like the first kiss or during vows.
5. Versatility: There are various veil styles to choose from, allowing brides to find one that complements their dress and personal style.

Did you wear a veil on your wedding day?? Let me know in the comments below.👇🏻

Let’s talk flowers for a minute!💐

Did you know this bride picked and arranged her own floral bouquets? Have you ever considered how to choose your own flowers for your big day? Here are a few tips for selecting flowers for your wedding day! Picking the perfect blooms for any occasion can be both exciting and overwhelming. Let’s explore some tips together!

1. Consider your theme: Match your flowers to the overall style of your wedding, whether it’s rustic, modern, or classic.🌹
2. Think about the season: Opt for blooms that are in season to ensure freshness and affordability.🌺
3. Budget wisely: Be realistic about your floral budget and prioritize where you want to splurge and where you can save.🌷
4. Communicate with your florist: Share your vision, preferences, and any must-have flowers with your florist for a personalized arrangement.🌸
5. Don’t forget about the venue: Take into account the size and layout of your venue when choosing the size and quantity of arrangements.🪻
6. Mix it up: Incorporate a variety of flowers, textures, and colors to add depth and visual interest to your floral arrangements.🌻
7. Consider longevity: Choose flowers that will hold up well throughout the day, especially if you have an outdoor wedding or a long event.🌼
8. Get inspired: Look for inspiration from bridal magazines, Pinterest, or floral design books to help you visualize your ideal arrangements.🪷

One of my favorite shots to capture on a wedding day is the groomsmen throwing the groom up in the air. This prompt is fun, a little dangerous, and elicits immediate cooperation and genuine smiles from everyone! Groomsmen are always down to have a good time so fun prompts are a must!

Who said engagement photos can’t be fun?💍

Have you ever considered adding props to your engagement shoot. Let’s ride a bike🚲, go on a picnic🧺, bake some cookies🍪, go for a drive in a vintage truck🛻, and have some fun together. Often, adding props and turning your photoshoot into an experience makes you feel more comfortable and allows you to be yourself and be in love!

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please reach out to me. I would love to work with you!

Hello everyone! The kids and I have been so sick these past few weeks, but it’s back to posting regularly on here for me! I am so grateful for the warm sun today and for the chance to take my kids outside! I’m looking forward to all of my upcoming sessions and hope the sun is here to stay for a while!☀️

Forever and always loving every single wedding day detail!💕

Did you know that I offer a free engagement session with any wedding package?💍

There are so many reasons why I love taking your engagement photos! Taking photos before your wedding day gives us both the chance to get to know each other a little better. It will also help you and your fiancé to feel more comfortable in front of my camera, practice and try out different poses, and ask me any questions you might have before your wedding day!

Already booked an engagement session with me and now want me to photograph your wedding? No problem. I will subtract the cost of engagement photos from your final wedding package cost!

Let’s work together! Send me a message through the link in my bio!💕

This one’s for the girls!💐

Wedding planning is filled with so many special moments, and one of the most exciting decisions is choosing your bridesmaids! While choosing bridesmaids can be so special, it also comes with its own set of considerations and challenges!

When choosing your bridesmaids, consider these important qualities:👇🏻

3. Positive Attitude: Opt for individuals who bring positivity and joy into your life, especially during stressful times like wedding planning.

4. Good Communication Skills: Effective communication is key, so prioritize bridesmaids who can express themselves clearly and listen attentively.

5. Respect for Your Vision: Select friends who respect your wedding vision and are willing to support your decisions, even if they have different opinions.

6. Team Player Mentality: Your bridesmaids should be willing to work together as a team, collaborating to make your wedding day as magical as possible.

7. Availability: Consider the availability of potential bridesmaids, especially if they live far away or have other commitments that might impact their ability to participate fully.

8. Financial Considerations: Be mindful of the financial commitment involved in being a bridesmaid, and choose individuals who are comfortable with the associated costs.

9. Emotional Support: Seek out friends who are empathetic and understanding, capable of providing emotional support during the ups and downs of wedding planning.
