If you are planning a couples photoshoot in Draper Utah, this blog is for you! Here is a look into a recent session in Draper by Shannon Ferrell Photography.

Draper, Utah is one of the Salt Lake Valley’s hidden gems when it comes to photography locations. With its beautiful mountain views, golden sunsets, and a charming mix of city and nature, Draper offers the perfect backdrop for a romantic couples session. Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, engagement, or just looking to document your love story, this location delivers a stunning visual narrative.

For this couples photoshoot in Draper Utah, we chose Potato Hill. The light filtering through the mountain tops created a soft, golden glow just before sunset. I asked them to wear light neutral colors to make sure golden hour really popped! I’m so in love with all of the photos from this day.

Tips to keep in mind before your session.

Time it right: Golden hour (about an hour before sunset) gives you the most flattering light.

Dress for the setting: Natural, muted colors work beautifully with Draper’s earthy tones.

Be yourselves: The best photos happen when you’re relaxed and focused on each other.

Draper continues to be a favorite location of mine as a photographer because it effortlessly combines the wild beauty of Utah’s landscape with the comfort of a familiar, local spot. Whether you’re hiking up Potato Hill or strolling along a quiet trail, the views—and the moments you create—will be unforgettable.
