Katie & Robbie : In Love

Oh my gosh!  I loved this session so much I don’t know where to start!  I was so excited when Alex’s Aunt Gerlinda called me to tell me that her daughter Katie was engaged.  I love Katie to death!  Besides the Photography, Gerlinda also asked me to help plan Katie’s wedding, so last Saturday they all came out to Roosevelt for the Engagement Session and also for some wedding planning!  I loved Robbie the second I met him!  He was so much fun to be around and he is a perfect fit for Katie.  They sweet and beautiful inside and out! 

 

They were cracking me up the whole session.

Isn’t Katie drop dead gorgeous!  (don’t roll your eyes or shake your head katie!  You are!!!)

I just loved how in to each other they were.  You can tell they are so happy!

Like I said before . . . they cracked me up the whole day!!!

Favorite shot of the day.  Such a sweet moment!

 

Check back in a few weeks for even more Engagement pictures of Katie and Robbie in Downtown SLC!  Can’t wait for those!!!

Jana & Aaron : The Wedding Part 2

Here is part 2 of Jana and Aaron’s wedding!

 

They had adorable flower girls!

I love the flower girls in this shot!

The Father Daughter dance touching.

The kids at this wedding did not stop dancing!  It was awesome.

I couldn’t pick one for their first dance, so I picked 3!

See what I am talking about!  The kids had their groove on!!!

I love this picture of Jana’s Brother and Sister dancing!  They were all so much fun!

 

Thanks Jana and Aaron for an awesome wedding.  You make my job fun!!!

Jana & Aaron : The Wedding Part 1

Jana and Aaron had such an amazing wedding!  I had so many favorites that I had to split them up between 2 days.  They chose to see each other before their wedding, which I love!  Here are my favorite shots from their ‘first look’ and from the formals.

 

My sister in law Stephanie (Fifi) took this picture.  Amazing right!  This was her first time ever shooting with me!  She has a natural eye and I can’t wait to teach her more!!!

Another one of Fifi’s.  I love Jana’s face here.  Aaron surprised her with bigger diamonds for her wedding band than she was expecting!  Gotta love that!!! 

Fifi’s!

 

Come back tomorrow morning for the rest of the pictures!!!

Rileigh & Mark:The Engagement

Well I have so many sessions to blog I decided to try and blog twice a day.  It may not happen every day but we will see what I can do!  I really want to keep my blog updated!

Rileigh & Mark are getting married next month and I am really looking forward to it.  They are a really cute couple and their wedding sound like it is going to be really awesome!  Here are my favorites!

I try not to go to the same place over and over again, but I really wanted to use this old orange van for an engagement session.  I just think it is so funky and cool.  Oh and if you are wondering why Rileigh and Mark are laughing so hard it is because I almost fell flat of my butt tripping over a car jack.  I swear I am so clumsy.

I swear I love our drive-in!  It is so cool!

They are so cute huh!

W.D. & Danielle : The Engagement

I swear I am the most gullible and naive person alive!  W.D. kept teasing me every time I asked him to do something during the session.  He made me look totally dumb a few times, but the session was so much fun!  Danielle and W.D. are a super fun couple and I am so excited for their wedding!

Mike & Misty : The Wedding + Some Bridals

Okay, so my attempt to blog every day for a month went so badly.  But I am determined!  I am going to start my quest on October 1st.  So every day in the month of October expect a blog post.  If I miss a day and you are the first to catch me on it you will get a $50 gift certificate for Tonya Peterson Photography that you can use towards prints/albums or a session.  Good deal right!  Good way to keep me on my toes!!!

 

Now back to the real post.  Here are some bridals and the wedding pictures from Mike and Misty’s wedding.  Enjoy!

 

Her bridals turned out awesome!

My favorite shot from the bridals.  Isn’t she stunning?!

Mike’s first glance at Misty.

 

Congratulations Mike and Misty.
