As promised, here are some of the finished set from Tara and Chris' engagement session in Park City. I love working with these two- they both are so sweet and are happy to do whatever it takes to get the photo. Even if it means wading through a hip-deep snow drift to get to the fence! :)
Jodi Bowls at Utah Linens is one of my favorite people. She's fun to talk to and work with, and is super down-to-earth. I did a product shoot for a magazine layout she was doing, and here are a few of the ones I liked the best.
Just a glimpse of Gordon and Georgette's reception at Le Chateau in Provo.
Bacon-wrapped filet mignon? Yes, please.
Park City is one of my absolute favorite places to shoot, and Kelsey and Brandon have been some of the most awesome clients to work with!
Take a look at the full gallery for Kelsey and Brandon here.
Janet and Adam had a beautiful ceremony at their church. Unfortunately, I didn't understand it - it was all in Spanish! My husband Thomas said that the pastor gave some great advice to the couple though. I'll have to trust him on that one. Mi esposo sabe siempre. (I pick up bits here and there).
I might not speak Spanish very well, but all I need to know is that they are happy and I can see that by the looks on their faces as they walk down the aisle. Congratulations Janet and Adam!
Receptions are always different. Some are quiet, formal, and have more of a wine-and-cheese-tasting vibe. Some are rowdy, loud, and feel more like a huge party. Janet and Adam's reception at the Point was definitely more of the party variety. They entered serenaded by a mariachi band, and after a nice sit down dinner got the all the reception traditions out of the way. They cut the cake, had the traditional first dances, and then got down to business. These people were here to dance.
We're talking about 6 hours of straight party-like-you-mean-it, leave nothing out, grooving to the music. It was awesome! They had a 12 piece banda that played for about two hours (they put microphones on all the brass, including dropping one down the throat of the tuba- think I might have knocked a filling loose), and then they let the DJ go to work. People were spinning, shaking their hips, and having a blast. Not only were they having fun, but they were good! I got my white girl genes out there and tried, but... well... let's just leave it that in the future I'll leave the latin dancing to those who know what they're doing.
This little girl was absolutely adorable. With her smile and tiara, I wasn't sure who was the princess today. She definitely gave Janet a run for her money.
