Your wedding day isn't a production, It's a series of moments. Some loud, some quiet, mostly unscripted. I photograph weddings and elopements throughout the state of Utah, and all 50 states with a focus on documenting the day as it unfolds. I'll guide when it helps, step back when it matters, and capture your photos with a thoughtful eye.
I most often work at the Bonneville Salt Flats. I'm drawn to the minimal look they offer and soft natural light that gives an editorial feel. I'm also very familiar with the Utah State Capitol Building, where classic architecture and soft interiors create an elevated, iconic setting for intimate wedding days.
I also regularly photograph weddings and elopements in Moab and throughout all of Utah’s national parks. My approach is calm and intentional, prioritizing presence over performance while creating imagery that feels thoughtful, natural, and timeless.
Your story isn’t confined to one place. It lives in the city where you met, the coastline you return to every summer, the desert that feels like home, or the mountains that make you breathe a little deeper. I go where your story lives.
Whether that’s a timeless celebration on the east coast, an intimate elopement along the cliffs of Big Sur, an elevated mountain celebration in Park City, or portraits beneath the wide-open skies of the Bonneville Salt Flats — I travel to document wedding days with intention, artistry, and a deep respect for place. Wherever your celebration unfolds, I arrive ready to preserve it honestly and beautifully, so your photographs feel as meaningful as the location you chose.
