Erin + Joe – Engagement Session – Kaysville, Utah

admin — Sun, 01 May 2011 21:59:08 +0000

I met with Erin and Joe a few weeks back to shoot their engagement session. Two very photogenic people for sure. Joe is a linebacker for the United Football League and played college football for the University of Kansas. Can you guess how Erin and Joe met? Of course Erin was a cheerleader. These two are so in love and are really down to earth. I had such a great time. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding next year. I am sure it will be tons of fun. The first thing my wife said when she saw these pictures was “he has HUGE arms”. I said “yeah they are bigger then Erin’s”. BTW, I am pretty jealous of Joe’s beard.

Chelsey + Seth – Downtown Ogden Engagement Session

admin — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 22:04:34 +0000

I met Chelsey and Seth at the Ogden Union Station Saturday morning. It had snowed a lot over night. I always go into situations like that hoping that we can make it work. I think we did okay. They were freezing the whole time and Seth spent most of the morning carrying Chelsey on his back so that her frozen feet would not get more wet than they did. He was a trooper and so was she. It was fun getting to know them. Chelsey likes to ride horses and Seth likes to play football and run. It looked to me like they were a perfect match and completely in love. I was honored to be their photographer. On to the pictures.

Jamie + Alex – Engagement Session – Salt Lake City

I hope all of you had a great Christmas/Holiday. This was one of my favorites. Our kids are at such fun ages. New Years Eve is in just a few days. I believe we will be staying home in our warm house since it is going to be really cold. It was cold this morning at 8am when I met Jamie and Alex to shoot their engagement session in Downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. We started at the capital, inside where it was warm. That is an amazing building. Incredible architecture. Once outside, it was colder than I had thought it would be. Jamie and Alex were troopers. Although, they did complain a little

Have a safe and happy New Years Eve!

Laurie + Jeff – Little Cottonwood Canyon Engagement Session

Laurie and Jeff are from Spokane Washington. They are planning on moving here after their wedding next March. We went up Little Cottonwood Canyon for their engagement session. It was early, cold and wet. We had a blast. It was fun getting to know them and their story. Jeff is really good on the guitar. Laurie is too, and she is learning to play the mandolin. I got to hear them both play a little. I love that canyon.

Enjoy the pictures.

Had a great time with Dillon and Courtnie in downtown Ogden. We met at the train station and hung out for a while. The lighting was great. I love sunset light.

Found a new location, found a hawk and found a bee hive but no one was hurt. This location was awesome! One for now, more later.

Sorry for the delay in posting. I have just gone through a major ordeal. I switched hosting and it was quite a process. This change is going to make my life a lot easier. Hope you like the new look of the blog? Here is a quick shot to get you through until this weekend when I will start trying to catch up blogging some recent sessions.

Brett + Heather Engagement Session | Salt Lake City, Utah

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 22:06:50 +0000

Here we are again. It has been a crazy year so far. I don’t think I have had a chance to breath since the new year started. It has been a great year so far though. Many great things happening and a lot of accomplishments. I am trying hard to stick to my two resolutions this year. They are very broad but that is working for me. How are you doing with your resolutions?

The bridal show back in January was a big success. I owe a big thanks to Brett and Dustin for helping me out. I couldn’t have done it without them. I got a lot of bookings and met a lot of fun people. I think this is going to be a big year for Legend Photography!

On to more important subjects, I went out with Brett and Heather last Saturday to shoot their engagement session. We started in downtown SLC at 8am for the first hour. It was really cold! My fingers went completely numb. It was worth it though, we found some cool new locations and got some great results. the light was perfect. After the first hour we went up in the hills above downtown. Once again, another awesome new location. It was warmer, although you can’t really tell by the goose bumps on Heathers arms. I can’t believe they both decided to finish the session in t-shirts. crazy-ness! What you see below is not for the faint of heart. There is kissing! Hope you enjoy.

Mike and Hillary’s Engagement and Wedding | Snowbasin, Utah

admin — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 03:05:39 +0000

I have been a little backlogged the last little while and my personal projects, like this blog, have had to take a backseat to more important things. Mike and Hillary met at their work. They quickly became best friends. What better thing, than to marry your best friend. I am that lucky.

We shot their engagement pictures back in June at Snowbasin, Utah. It was gorgeous! It was also raining most of the time. These two were troopers. They got wet and muddy and smiled through the whole thing. I believe it was worth it. The pictures turned out fantastic. I am going to keep these short as I am working the engagement, bridal, and wedding all into one post.

We shot Hillary’s bridals in August. It was hot but we started early enough that it wasn’t too bad. Hillary has the most amazing personality. She is always happy and has a great outlook on life. We met in North Ogden at The Barn golf course. I am a big fan of ivy in pictures and luckily I found some.

The wedding was on September 5th back at Snowbasin. I had not been up there for a long time and had not seen all of the changes brought about by the Winter Olympics back in 2002. A lot had changed. It is a really nice place. We traveled up the gondola to the Needles Lodge for the ceremony. The view was majestic from the patio where the ceremony was held. After the ceremony a small storm front moved in and it got a little windy. Not much fun for pictures. Back down the gondola we went for the dinner and reception at Earl’s Lodge. The food was delicious. The reception was fun. Hillary’s nephew was a riot. He liked to see if he could get his hands up in front of his face before I got a picture. Looks like I won and I hope he likes seeing the proof in this blog.
