The Pictures



Well, who knew that in the freezing cold Utah winter, we could end up with lovely beach like engagement shots? Not me! I wasn't very optimistic as we headed out to the salt flats that cold December morning. We picked Nikky up in Salt Lake, enjoyed a bite to eat at some tasty little sandwich shop at Nikky & Stephen's recommendation and started the trek toward Wendover. When we got there, it was even colder than when we had started out and the props were looking particularly daunting. Fortunately, Ben & Stephen were dedicated & we got started pulling couches and phonographs all over creation. Between shots, we encouraged Nikky to warm up in the truck less she have a red, little nose for the portraits. Although the snow was appealing, I think the prettiest shots were those shot out on the melted salt flats. The sun was getting low and the colors on the water and ice were gorgeous, so we went for it. Engagement photos are the easiest photos to take in my opinion. Two people in love pretty much glow and these two were no exception. Plus their clever props and posing ideas made the pictures their own. My very favorite photo? Posed by the bride. :) It was my pleasure taking the photos and I hope you love them for years to come. Just let's not take them in 13 degrees when I'm pregnant next time.
