Rustic Winter Wedding {East Idaho Wedding Photographer}

Winter in East Idaho can make for snowy and challenging weddings. But this recent wedding I had the privilege of shooting was one of my favorite winter weddings. The bride designed all of her details with a woodland theme. The wedding ceremony was in an old barn and the reception was held in the lodge just down the road. It was a cold, but gorgeous day. I've always said to my children that if they get married in Idaho in the winter I will be flying them to Florida so we can have a "warm" wedding, but after seeing how beautiful this wedding was I may change my mind. Here are just a few shots of the details. I'll share some of the bride and groom in a little bit.

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. P | East Idaho Wedding Photographer

What a PERFECT evening this was to do a session! And even better with such an amazing couple!  I was so excited to do this couple's wedding couple session. I LOVE doing "Day after" sessions because the couples stress level is gone and the dress has already been worn and trashed at the reception so they aren't worried anymore about getting dirty. It makes it so much easier to be creative. We had so much fun and the sky was so amazing! Here are just a few from their session....

Can I just say- LOVE!!!!!

Engagement session with D&B | East Idaho Wedding Photographer

I recently had a really fun engagement session. This couple are soooo much in love and I loved being around their energy and happiness. They won my free gift certificate at a bridal fair this summer and I had so much fun getting to know them. They have so many interests that they share together and we had fun incorporating their interests in their session. I especially loved adding in their guitars to some of the poses. I LOVE being around couples who are so much in love.

Thanks, Dan & Britany! You two are awesome!!! Here are a few images for a sneak peek of your session. :)

Jared & Kassie | Fun Engagement Session | East Idaho Wedding Photographer

My job is sooooo fun! Especially when I have such an amazing couple to do pictures of! This darling couple are getting married in a week! And I am so excited to get to be a part of their special day. We had a lot of fun capturing some couple pictures of them this past Saturday. The fires have been so bad in our area that the smoke was pretty strong and the skies hazy. But even though we had a couple of us sneezing toward the end I still think we got some amazing images! Now to get the smoke to blow away by Saturday. :) 

Here are a few from their recent session. 

Reagan & Cassidy Engagement Session | East Idaho Wedding Photographer

Engagement sessions are so much fun! Especially when you have a couple so excited about getting married. This fun couple are getting married in September and were so lucky to win an engagement session from last weeks Bridal Fair at Hart's Tux and Gown. They have an adorable little boy and we brought him in for a few images as well. 


Congrats, Cassidy and Reagan! 

Fun Family Session! {East Idaho Family Photographer}

Doing family sessions can sometimes be a challenge, especially with kids. But this adorable family did AWESOME!!! The three boys were so adorable and cooperated so good! We had a lot of fun. Their Dad will be marrying his sweetheart in June and they are so excited. I am excited for all of them and can just feel the joy radiating from all of them. What a fun group!


Here are just a few from their recent session...

Introducing "soon-to-be" Mr. & Mrs. Barnard {Idaho Wedding Photographer}

What a fun couple!!! I have had the privelege of doing this couples engagements, bridals, a pre-wedding couple session and soon, their wedding. And they have been so awesome to work with! We decided to do pre-wedding photos so that the wedding day won't be as hectic. I love doing couples before or after the wedding day. The couple is more relaxed and we get to be more creative and don't have to worry about others waiting on us. We went all over with this couple and did some fun shots. They will be married in less than two weeks and the Idaho Fall Temple, where they are getting married, is under major construction to the grounds. I suggested doing "hard hat" pictures and they took me up on it! It was so much fun! The grounds may be ugly but we made it a great memory. Hey, its not everyone who gets to do hard hat pictures in front of the Temple! ☺ We got a lot of chuckles from those walking by.


Here are just a few from their session. I can't wait for them to see all of them! Enjoy! ☺

Love is in the air! Cody & Emily's engagements {East Idaho Wedding Photographer}

Love is definitely in the air with this couple! ♥  They are so perfect for each other! During the whole session they couldn't stop looking at each other and whispering sweet sayings to each other. It was so fun to watch and even more so, since the soon-to-be-bride is my darling niece! ☺ We were suppose to do an evening session but the weather, once again, was looking a little iffy. So I called them up and we did them earlier in the afternoon and it was a good thing we did! It did sprinkle on us for a few minutes but then the rest of the time was beautiful. I am so glad that spring has finally decided to show its face in Idaho and the trees are beginning to bloom and the grass is so green! Yay!!!! We had a lot of fun doing their session. They are a couple who like to have fun together and so we just had to do some swing shots. ☺ Can't wait for their wedding in July!

Here are just a few from their session!
