Bill & Hayley celebrated their 10 year wedding anniversary by leaving the babies with grandparents and coming out to Park City, Utah! They live in Houston, so this definitely was a change of scenery (and temperature)! Hayley had dreams of a snowy, mountainous photoshoot and I’m glad we were able to make it happen in […]
Because of covid-restrictions on gatherings, Igor and I got legally & church married before having the party-wedding with all our friends and family. And I’ll be honest – our legal wedding wasn’t as “fun” as you’d hope a wedding would be. I woke up early in the morning to do a Target run, pick up […]
Igor and I both grew up in Salt Lake City, our immediate families (minus his dad) are in Salt Lake City, and we lived in Salt Lake City while planning our wedding. So getting married in Utah was the obvious choice. While I didn’t have my future wedding plans fully flushed out, I always knew […]

She originally wanted to shoot on a rooftop. However, we couldn’t find a rooftop […]
As an additional service, I create each of my wedding couples a custom, recommended wedding day schedule. If the couple doesn’t have a planner, they usually just go by my solo recommendation. If the couple has hired a wedding planner, I will work with him/her to create this timeline. This works better for everyone because […]
If you’re looking for a mountain wedding venue at the best price, Storm Mountain is my go-to recommendation! I chose to throw my own wedding rehearsal dinner here because it is simply gorgeous and so so affordable. I’ve compiled essential Storm Mountain wedding information and costs as of Spring 2022. Things are always subject to […]
One of the ways we saved money for our wedding was to make most of our wedding invitations digital. It’s 2021 😉 We printed only 25 physical invitations and gave those only to older-generation guests who’d expect it and people who actually save that paper. For all other guests, we sent them the below message […]
Shayna is such a sweet girl. Her family moved from the East Coast to Park City a few years ago and she is a current senior at one of my old schools, Rowland Hall. Shayna reached out to me because I had the honor of taking senior photos for her friend, Elli, who graduated the […]
