Austin + Ashley • Sand Dunes Bridals

Oh these two! Austin and Ashley's engagement session up in Kelly's was so dreamy, and their bridals were no different! I got the chance to chat with Austin before Ashley arrived for the first look. Hearing him talk about their future and upcoming adventures just made me so giddy for them!
When Ashley mentioned the Sand Dunes, I was ecstatic! I loved having a change of scenery and once the light was perfect, I got some stunning photos of Austin and Ashley being completely themselves and in love! Their walking and dancing shots are my favorites from that night. I am so happy Austin and Ashley get to start their lives together today! Congrats you two! 

Nikki + Steffen • Kelly Canyon Engagements

I met Nikki back at the Marry Market in March. It was a spring bridal fair hosted and held by The Venue in Rigby. I had the chance to chat with Nikki for a few minutes there. She entered my engagement/bridal session giveaway and won! This shoot has been in the works for a couple months, and I'm so glad we were able to make it happen this past weekend! 
We decided to meet up at Kelly Canyon for Nikki and Steffen's engagement session. Kaige came for a couple family shots which just made the entire session that much better. Kaige's little smile was so contagious! Just look at him! And Steffen brought his show truck. Props are actually becoming a new favorite for me. They bring variety and personality into your images. And the classy shots we got with Steffen's show truck were fantastic! 
I'm thrilled for Nikki and Steffen to tie the knot. Enjoy some of my favorites from their engagement session!

Resa + Jim • A Romantic Picnic

On a beautiful afternoon I was able to get together with Jim and Resa. Jim was an exchange student from Berlin, Germany and was getting ready to head back home. Resa and Jim had the best idea to have a photoshoot done before he left. I was so stoked when they contacted me and mentioned they wanted to have a picnic during their session. I can't think of anything better than that! Activities for photos bring out the best of people and even help you relax and to be yourself during your session. 

Resa loves the water and camping, so this area was perfect! It was great watching Jim and Resa just have fun together. After the picnic we explored. Jim saw the swing set and immediately asked Resa to get on. The candids from the swings and the picnic are my favorites. Real moments are the best moments. Enjoy these two love birds!
