Utah County Wedding Photography- Bella Vista Lindon

Stephanie and Justin were simply smitten with eachother! Stephanie looked gorgeous (doesn't the hair remind you of "Tangled"?) and Justin couldn't keep his eyes off of her. Her make-up was done by Brooke of Know BS Make-up and I think having your make-up done right makes a huge difference in your photos! I absolutely adored the snowy outdoor photos...totally worth the frostbite!! Bella Vista is a beautiful venue...I love the outdoor shots with the warm indoors just inside! Their simply ceremony was beautiful and the cupcakes...seriously the BEST I have had (and I eat a LOT of cupcakes!). Anyways, it was such a pleasure to be a part of their Big Day and I hope you love these photos!

Utah Wedding Photographer- Things to Consider!!

As wedding planning begins for the coming year I thought I would share some things to consider when you are planning...especially if having fantastic photos is important to you! These are simply suggestions, not requirements, but after years of photographing brides I have found these things helpful in creating beautiful images.

#1 - Plan to take your photos during the warm dusk hours. The harsh sunlight in the late morning and early afternoon isn't the most pleasing. This isn't always possible, but you will love your photos if you can arrange it. If it won't work on the wedding day, consider having a bridal/groomal session during these hours on a seperate day!

#2- Have your make-up and hair done professionally. It doesn't have to be heavy and uncomfortable make-up, but having it done right will really make a difference in your photos!

#3- Choose a location that suits your personality...if the location doesn't have much color, make sure you do (accessories are a great way to add color and personality!).

#4- Lastly, don't be afraid to just be yourself!! Some people like the "serious" look, others like to smile...just be comfortable and have fun! The best photos are the ones where you look like...YOU!!
