Brides have always had a soft spot in my heart they always have a certain glow of happiness and beauty around them and Mackenzie definitely is one of those brides!! Even though Mackenzie has been married now for over a year she wanted to get some more photos in her beautiful wedding dress and I was more then happy to take them!!!
Derek & Paige's Wedding: Part Two of Two || Wedding Photographer
I am so excited to be sharing Paige and Derek's beautiful wedding day with everyone. These two are so close to my heart not only because they are family but because of who they are and how wonderful they are together.
When I first met Derek my husband and I were pleasantly surprised! He was so sweet and had so many sweet things to say about Paige, you could just see how in love he was with her. This made my husband and I so happy because Paige is like a little sister to us.
Their story is a cute one! Paige and Derek met at school during their freshman year. Derek was the first boy that Paige ever held hands with but they never ended up dating. He ended up leaving for a 2 year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a while after he came home they randomly contacted one another again and things started clicking, it was like magic. They dated for about 3 or so months when one cold winter day Derek took Paige snow shoeing up a mountain and said all the perfect things with the most romantic settings. He handed her a ring-sized box and when she opened it she found a note that said he loved her ... imagine her shock and disappointment. As she turned to give him a hard time about the note she found him on his knee with the ring.
I just love this story because it explains them so well! Derek and Paige are so perfect for each other! Their lives are going to be filled with so much joy and love as they grow together with one another. I am so glad that I was able to share in their beautiful day and I look forward to watching them grow.
Congratulations, again, Derek and Paige! Love you both!
Derek & Paige's Wedding: Part One of Two || Wedding Photographer
I am just so excited to be sharing this lovely couples' wedding photos!!! Paige is my cousin-in-law and when she asked me to be her photographer I was honored and excited to be a part of their big day!! Their albums are broken into two parts, this first part is a couple of days before their wedding day, at the Sleepy Ridge Golf Course in Orem UT.
Although this particular day ended up being a pretty gloomy and rainy day. Both Derek and Paige weren't fazed by it at all. They loved making faces at one another, holding hands and kissing. It was the cutest thing to watch and heaven for me and my camera. Their love is so natural, it was beautiful! Both Derek and Paige have such fun personalities, it was impossible not to smile, laugh and have fun with these two.
I could go on all day about this couple but I'll just let the pictures say the rest! Congratulations again to both Derek and Paige!! You both are beautiful together! Enjoy part 1.
