Burton Family Picture Session – Layton, Utah

admin — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 07:09:28 +0000

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving? Mine was great. I was able to spend some much needed time with my wife and kids. I got in some exercise. I went running on Wednesday, played flag football on Thursday, and went biking on Friday. I hurt everywhere! I went to see Warrior with the guys. It was a great movie. One of my top 10 favorites.

A few weeks ago I spent some time with the Burtons taking their family pictures. They are like family to me. It was really good to see them and catch up. Such cute kids!

Kunkel Family Picture Session – Layton, Utah

admin — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 04:15:17 +0000

I really love the Kunkel Family. I don’t think it would be possible to take a bad picture of any of them. Dale did a great job getting his kids to smile but I shouldn’t have looked back. That is something I will never be able to delete from my memory. I also got them to sit on the cold, wet ground Fun session for sure!

Kate + Brandon – Wedding Teaser – Red Butte Gardens

Kate and Brandon. Great people. Their family and friends? Great as well. Some of the nicest people I have had the chance to hang out with. These people know how to celebrate and have a good time. Here are just a few from their big day at Red Butte Gardens in Salt Lake City, Utah. More to come later.

Nice Family Pictures – Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah

admin — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 22:16:00 +0000

These pictures are nice, but so is the last name of this family. Double meaning They were actually really nice, but you would have to be with that name. I met them at the bottom of Little Cottonwood Canyon and took them over to where the river is usually crashing down the canyon . It was completely dry. Made for a great setting even with the rain and wind. Enough from me – here are the pictures.

Hello again Amanda and Jeremy!

I received an email from a past wedding photography client today that warmed my heart. I really liked working with Amanda and Jeremy. They have so much style. The email is below but I just wanted to point out how nice it is for them, after several years, they still have online access to their pictures and are able to order and re-order as they like.

Thank you both for making my day better

Good morning, Tyson! I don’t know if you remember Jeremy and I, but you photographed our wedding on April 25, 2009 at St. Joe’s Church in Ogden. We were wanting to view the pictures again as I want to order a few more, but I don’t know our password. Can you email it to me perhaps?

Also, I wanted to let you know that the “antique” photo you took of us (with Jeremy in the chair and myself standing next to him) always gets tons of compliments. We hung it in the entryway to our home in Las Vegas, and people always stop to admire it. It hangs next to the wedding photo of my great-great grandparents, and is exactly what we wanted. I can’t tell you how much that still means to myself and my family to have that portrait.

I hope your business is doing very well, and that you’re still enjoying being a (fantastic!) wedding photographer. I wish you all the best, and again, thank you for being there to capture our wedding.

Love,
Amanda

Jamie + Alex – Salt Lake City LDS Temple Wedding and Album

admin — Sun, 05 Jun 2011 21:52:10 +0000

Things have been so crazy over the last few months. Sorry for not being more on top of this blog. Sometimes it goes to the back burner as other things have to come first. Family and work are the first priority. After that, I have put my running closer to the front as my wife and I have several big races planned this year. We are running the Wasatch Back Ragnar Relay in just under two weeks. Then we will be running the Top of Utah Half Marathon, St. George marathon and then the Las Vegas Ragnar Relay. My wife and I put in for the St. George Marathon thinking we wouldn’t get in. We were not that lucky. We are now committed or maybe we should be committed?

Jamie and Alex were so great to work with. They are so laid back. It really made this wedding so much fun. The weather was looking questionable but turned out perfect. They were married in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple on March 11th, 2011 and they had their reception at the Eaglewood Event Center that evening. It was great being involved in the entire process. I got to shoot their engagement pictures, bridal pictures, wedding dinner, and their entire wedding day.

Never in all my years as a wedding photographer have I ever seen anything like this before. After cutting the cake, Jamie and Alex went to feed each other and Alex must have been a lot hungrier than anyone might have thought. He decided not to wait until Jamie had taken her fingers out of the way of his teeth before completely biting down. Please reference the pictures below for a great laugh!

I also had the privilege to work with one of my favorite wedding videographers again. Kale Fitch of Kale Fitch Productions. He is so creative and likeable. He really makes things fun. Please check out his video of the wedding here. I let him borrow my 45mm tilt shift lens for a few shots. It looks really cool with video. He also did their engagement video which you can see here.

The album turned out wonderful. They had so many pictures that they loved, we decided to do 20 album spreads instead of the standard 10. I can’t wait to see the finished product!

Here are a few of my favorites that didn’t make the album and then the album spreads. Bon Appetite!

Had a great time with Jamie and Alex on their wedding day. I have not finished processing all of their pictures yet but I hear that Alex is stalking my blog daily, waiting for pictures. This is for you Alex. Just a few for now. More to come.

Piper – Toddler Session Part 1 – Layton, Utah

admin — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 19:15:33 +0000

Just over a year ago we did newborn pictures of Piper. Well, she is back and she has grown. We did these in the studio this morning. She is so cute and we had so much fun. Our second session will be this afternoon as we attempt to go outdoors. It is supposed to be a little warmer today. Fingers crossed.

Julie + Daniel – Wedding Album Design

admin — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 05:38:40 +0000

Julie sent me a list of her favorite pictures from her wedding for the album. I think there were only around 300! It was definitely hard to narrow it down. Let me know what you think of the finished product. I will be ordering a new sample album of this one.

Courtnie + Dillon – Ogden City Engagement Session

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.
