Congratulations Thomas and Jaycie!



We started out Thomas and Jaycie's engagement session on a beautiful rainy day at Liberty Park. They were so wonderful. Not only did they not cancel due to weather, but they embraced it and had fun and we got some of the best images. Ever! :)







The wedding was at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple.











Thomas proposed to Jaycie here - so a bit of a reenactment here:









Requiring a bit of effort (Thomas carried Jaycie half way into this field and her father carried her the rest of the way), this has to be one of my favorite images.



The reception was at the church near Jaycie's home.















Congratulations again Thomas and Jaycie!



The full set of images can be found on my web site.

Congratulations Shawn and Natalie



I've known Natalie for awhile now. She had offered to model for me so I could try out some new locations and over the past year and a half and four photo sessions, I've gotten to know her pretty well. So while I'm always excited to see someone get married, it's a bit more personal when I've come to know the bride so well.

For the curious, here are links to our other photo shoots:

Natalie in downtown Salt Lake (our first shoot together)
Natalie at The Castle Amphitheater
Natalie at the Old Smelter (this is where I met Shawn for the first time)
Natalie in Studio

Anyway, on to some fun engagement, bridals and wedding pictures!

We did their engagement pictures at the Great Salt Lake. She said she wanted "steamy" so we got a little "steamy" with a couple of the poses:






Bridal pictures were done at Thanksgiving Point Gardens (the large gardens in the back):







And finally, on July 3rd, 2010, Shawn and Natalie were wed in Shawn's back yard in Payson:



















And finally, the reception was at Natalie's church:











Congratulations again Shawn and Natalie and best wishes to both of you for the future!
