Cactus and Tropicals Wedding

Fillmore Utah WeddingCountry WeddingUtah Wedding Photographer

I loved taking photos for this cute Fillmore Utah wedding.  Set in the rural part of Fillmore Utah it was filled with small town charm.  The couple was charming and a pleasure to photograph.

Here are some cute stories from the Bride and Groom in their own words!

 

*Favorite story of Bride: first kiss was after I had just got done chopping onions and had tears coming down and mascara and he guided me who was blind with my eyes closed to the bathroom. When I finally opened my eyes we were both laughing and then he kissed me which got interrupted by more laughing.
*Favorite story of Groom: Day we got engaged Tava was starting a new job and studying for a test. Tava‘s mom Maureen and her Aunt Laura took a train down to visit. Originally her sister CJ who she doesnt get to see as much anymore was going to come down, but could not get a baby sitter for that long. Without Tava knowing Danny flew her sister down for the day and we all drove to her brothers for a bbq.  Her cousins that lived close by Heidi, Rachael, & Taylor also showed up, which Tava did not know. Totally oblivious her brother Cody and Danny said, “She has no idea,” while Tava was just sitting there happy to see everyone. All the sudden her sister walks through the back door and walks right over to Tava to give her a hug. Tava couldn’t believe it, and said, “Are you serious” How did this happen, and before I even got to pop the question she said, “Oh my gosh Im crying” then I got her attention finally and said, “you weren’t expecting that were you?” Tava just shook her head and then Danny says, I bet your not expecting this either and got down on his knee in front of everyone and asked if I would Marry him. Tava said yes and everyone started crying.

Utah wedding photographerVietnamese Wedding in UtahVietnamese wedding and Tuscany Gardens

I love learning about the culture while photographing this Vietnamese wedding. Forgive me if I get anything wrong, I was only an onlooker.  The groom prepares to meet his bride in a home close to hers.  The prepare gifts for the brides family and ancestors.  His family makes a procession line and carries the gifts to the brides house. There they gave all the gifts for the wedding to the bridesmaids.  The then go in and serve tea to their parents. The parents give gifts the children.  It was really beautiful and fun to be a part of it.

Fun Story about the couple:

Jordan and I met in math class, of all places!  We were both sophomores at UC Berkeley, he was an Engineering Physics major and I was in Astrophysics, so our paths never crossed.  It was kind of a fluke that I was taking this class in the first place, as I hadn’t fulfilled all of the pre-requirements, but I decided to do it anyways.  Even though it was a small class, we never really talked to each other.  Towards the end of the semester, he walked in with a shirt with a picture of Shakespeare on it, with the phrase ‘Prose before Hos’.  I joked that I was offended, as my last name is Ho, and that it was not okay for prose to come before me.  He was taken aback, but later that day went home and sent me a message.  That shirt provided the spark that ignited our ten year strong relationship.  While the original shirt is in tatters, it lives on in the form of two replicas that I have made to keep him happy 🙂

Timpanogos Temple Wedding

This is Timpanogos temple wedding that won’t soon be forgotten. I love shooting weddings at the mount timpanogous temple.  If you are a Mormon looking at temples for your temple wedding I would highly suggest you consider getting married at the Timpanogous temple.  The Mount timpanogos temple makes for beautiful wedding photos.  A Timpanogos temple wedding will not disapoint and give an Utah bride and groom magic like wedding photos.  I love being a Utah wedding photographer, I love attending timpanogos temple weddings.  I love wedding photography in general.  I love how whimsical this couple was and how it fit perfectly with their timpanogos temple wedding.  I live in Salt Lake City, but it’s worth going to Utah county for this timpanogos temple wedding.  I’m trying to get this to 300 words about this timpanogos temple wedding.  Don’t hate on me haters about this Mount timpanogos temple wedding.  I love being a Utah wedding photographer.  Maybe I should have named this blog entry Utah wedding photographer shoots a timpanogos temple wedding. I think that seems long.  Or is naming this timpanogos temple wedding shot by a utah wedding photographer better?  What I like best about Timpanogos temple weddings is that you don’t have to walk that far to get really pretty angles of this temple.  The Mount timpanogos temple I like to photograph it from the south east side.  It’s really pretty for wedding photos there.  You can see the whole temple and it’ makes a perfect back drop for the bride and groom.  Even on this really sunny day in Utah we still rocked really pretty photos at the timpanogos temple.

Wedding Grand America Hotel

Wedding Grand America Hotel: This wedding at Grand America Hotel was one of my favorite weddings this past year.  It was so lovely and beautiful!  Truly one of the grandest hotels Salt Lake City has to offer.  It is a perfect setting for an extra fancy wedding!  I loved all the details of this great wedding including the amazing ice sculpture.  I can’t wait until I can photographer another Wedding at Grand America Hotel.  Here is more of the couples love story and how they met!

In Lisa’s own words, “Our adventure began one fateful night, August 8th 2009. We both ended up at a house warming party, one that Kasey had been invited to but was almost too shy to go and that Lisa hadn’t been invited to but wasn’t about to let that stop her from tagging along with her Best Man, Dee.

Not long into the party Kasey saw Lisa from across the crowd and had to approach, but wasn’t sure just what to say… A first impression is so important, he had to say something brilliant! He eventually decided on, “Can you hand me a jello shot? The blue one, because I’ve always wanted to be a smurf but they tell me I’m too tall.”

This was by far the most ridiculous and cheesy thing Lisa had ever heard, and she instantly fell for him. She tried to play it cool, sticking close to Dee and trying to hide her interest. However, Dee quickly put an end to that by proclaiming that he had never seen Lisa fall for someone as hard or as quickly as she just had for Kasey. And that was it, all of the cards on the table.

Since that moment, the two of them have rarely been apart and plan to live that way for the rest of their lives. ”
