One of the best parts about Utah is the location variety like Red Butte Garden (see more
here) You get so many different looks it’s perfect for families, engagements, bridals, really any session.
Working with Jamie and Ben was so fun. My favorite part was getting to know them as a couple. They are so cute together and so well matched. It was just fun to see them interacting with each other and making each other laugh and open up in front of me. It was a fun little peek into the relationship. I always admire seeing couples really embrace their relationship so that it can shine through on their photos.
I’ve talked a ton about how outfits can really make the biggest difference in your photo shoot (you can see my post here). Jamie did an amazing job at picking out her dress and doing her makeup and coordinating outfits. They both looked perfect together. I loved the soft tones with this time of year and how she really took into account the location they were shooting at while picking outfits.
When you book a session with me, one thing I go over is location. I often have my own spots and then other popular spots that I know will photograph well. Jamie and Ben took the time to ponder my list of suggestions for location. They also went out on their own to look at the locations to see if it was what they wanted. Jamie said when she went to Red Butte Garden that she just knew that she loved this place and she found a beautiful spot by the waterfall that she wanted captured. This makes it so easy for me to include a piece they love also in their sessions. Red Butte Garden has so many different locations to offer within their gardens. I would highly recommend checking it out prior to your shoot if you choose this location.
We had snow the week before their engagement session so we weren’t sure exactly how green it would be, but we were able to find lots of beautiful sceneries. I also spotted one little patch of blooming flowers and I knew we had to somehow capture it and get photos with the new blooms. I’m so happy that I could photograph them in this beautiful location. I hope they love these dreamy photos.
