a bride, her wedding dress, her groom, her pup, and the base of a mountain

As a Utah wedding photographer, I’m lucky my couples have been up for almost anything I suggest. And Michelle and Daniel are no different. By now you should know I’m a big fan of any location that resembles the Enchanted Forest. I love to plot my brides and grooms in the middle of quite literally nowhere, or at least locations that appear to be the middle of nowhere.

When I first suggested doing bridals at the base of a mountain—which required a bit of walking distance to get to—Michelle’s first question was, “Can my dog come along?” My answer? “Only if mine comes too.”
