Pocatello

Pocatello Temple Bridals

Remember that one snowstorm we got at the end of December? My husband said we got at least 15 inches at our house within 72 hours. My husband couldn’t even snowboard on the best snow days up at Grand Targhee with road closures. I was stuck in New Mexico just the day before Katie and Preston’s formal session and I didn’t even think I’d be able to shoot their session! Lucky for me, my dad drove over 13 hours to meet my husband and and the kids and I were in the car for over 19 hours! And we were in 4 different states in one day. (New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Idaho). Anyways, we made it back to Idaho and we got the best snow for Katie and Preston’s formal session!

20º weather looks good on these two! Preston probably stood alone for 15 minutes in the cold while we got Katie ready for the first look. The pink noses and fingers were worth the photos I’d say. And Katie’s dress! I personally love long sleeved wedding dresses, which is kind of a necessity for Idaho winter weddings, but I think they’re so elegant and classic. The pinks pop so perfect with the greens. I mean, honestly, it couldn’t have been any more amazing than this.

Their Pocatello Temple wedding was beautiful! Not quite as cold as their bridals but just as stunning! It was my first time shooting at the Pocatello Temple and I loved it!


Winter Woods Engagements • Idaho Falls

I met Courtney at the best Birthday party. My friend Brittny had planned the coolest Harry Potter themed party for Tanner. It. was a scavenger hunt and there were clues all throughout Rigby that relate to Harry Potter. Courtney I were on the same team and bonded over a 2 hour car ride in Rigby. She’s got the sense of humor I love and carefree spirit that aspire to have.

Courtney is actually Brittny’s sister. You may remember seeing Brittny and Tanner’s Engagements or their Pocatello bridals a few years back. As soon as Courtney and Brad were engaged I knew I had to get them in front of my camera!

Courtney and Brad met me up in Idaho Falls at one of my favorite pine tree locations. Neither of them ever blinked at the cheesy things I asked them to do. Anyone who’s had a session with me knows I ask my couples to do some odd things during their session which turn out to be the cutest smiles and laughs from the session. Try scrolling through their images and not smiling. Their smiles are so contagious! For being 24º, I’d say they rocked it!

I’m so excited for these two to seal the deal in January in Utah! Enjoy my all time favorites in the woods!

Idaho Mountain Maternity

Madi and Ethan were my bride and groom four years ago! I can’t believe it’s been that long since I shot their Utah wedding! When they had baby Collins I was able to do a lifestyle newborn session which was beautiful. It was so fun hanging out with these three again. Madi totally has the pregnancy glow! 33 weeks pregnant and she still hiked up a mountain for me. I love these views that are so close to Rigby, Rexburg and Idaho Falls! And I’m so glad we decided on this beautiful mountain location after going back and forth on a couple other locations.

Collins was actually teething but she totally rocked the family photos! She was so smiley even through teething! And those photos of Collins kissing baby sister? I’m obsessed with them! Have I mentioned how much I just love these Idaho mountains? I’m so grateful my clients love the mountains as much as I do. Madi, Ethan and I talked about all the place here in Idaho they Razor around and it got me thinking about how awesome of a place we live! I love the mountaintops and adventure areas we have so close to us. Enjoy just a few of my favorites from the Bennett’s maternity session.
