In the White Mountains with Mikayla & Luke

Hidden in New Hampshire's White Mountains like a diamond in the rough, we found a trail to Mount Willard Point in Crawford Notch State Park. After hiking a steady incline for a bit less than 2 miles, up ahead, we could finally see a clearing in the woodland. As we walked the final stretch of path, the air was calm and moist, causing the earth to delight our senses with its cedar aroma. Just before making it to the top, a returning hiker warned us of the extreme wind that we were about to encounter. And then, stepping from beneath the trees onto the precipitous rocky cliff, we were blasted with damp clouds and stunned by wonder.

The Most Breathtaking Desert Inspired Engagement Photos in Michigan

In the brutal wind, sand swirls up and off every dune crest as it is slowly recreating its own landscape. Its shape is in constant change, but moving forward, it is only becoming more beautiful. Like Gentry and Sierra's relationship; in this moment in time, they may feel as if they know each other fully and love as much as possible. However, as the days go on, and life's constant wind of change continues to take hold in their lives and bring them closer together, their love will only grow deeper, never to fully settle. There is always a deeper picture in creation. A way to remind us of relationship, and ultimately perfect restoration and harmony.

Stormy Adventure Photos in Iceland

October is Iceland's storm season, especially the Snæfellsjökull Peninsula on the west coast--it's known for the worst storms on this island nation. When we first read about Icelandic Octobers, we imagined just a lot of rain--"oh, we can handle getting wet"--we were (so very) wrong. We learned that when Icelanders talk about storms, they're referring to the incredible winds.

Fjadrargljufur Canyon Adventure Session

A wondrous mist, along with eerie, hovering and constant moving fog filled the air above the over-worldly landscape. Like an unwound watch, it was like time ceased to move forward. There was a quietness, almost to a silence, and it was mystifying. With drenched hair and chilled bones in the fight against the sky's continuous icy tears, we still felt this volcanic land's symphony of peace and it warmed our hearts with awe.

Yosemite Honeymoon Session

The last half of our session together was down in the Valley for sunset. What I love most about these images, is how relaxed they both were--at this point, it didn't seem like it was about getting the perfect photo, but rather, being present to and loving the moment that they were in. Josh and I both loved these moments with them and the entire day. In fact, our time and adventure with Amin and Nuraini was one of the most fun times we've ever had during our photography career.

Canyonlands National Park Winter Engagement Session

Stewart and Mindy traveled three hours from Salt Lake City to meet Joshua and me at the Island in the Sky in Canyonlands National Park. When we first arrived, the entire park was covered in a dense fog and we couldn't even see ten feet in front of us. Typically I prefer fog, but in this case, it was making it impossible to see into the canyon. I directed Stewart and Mindy where to stand and then, right before our eyes, the fog began to fall, giving real meaning to its name, Island in the Sky.
