Marlies and Dillon's Same Day Edit // Salt Lake Temple

Marlies and Dillon have known each other since 9th grade and they are definitely perfect for each other. She had a crush on Dillon while at the same time Dillon was writing Marlies' name in all the dictionaries next to the word "cute". It took a few years for them to figure it out, but they finally started dating right before Dillon went on his mission to Asia. From his mission, Dillon wrote Marlies a letter in Cambodian and upon his return home he transalted it for her to let her know he loved her. She felt the same way and now they are married :)

Marlies' dress was made by her grandmother and patterned after an Anthropologie dress. Love it!

Special thanks to Heather Telford for being such a great photographer to hang with today :)

Spring First Look // Salt Lake Temple

Madeline and Zach are getting married tomorrow, but their video is already half way done :)

Filming prior to the wedding is a way for you two to have your own time together. I had no idea until I was married how insane it gets the last couple weeks before the wedding and of course the wedding day. I had to take a break with my fiance from everything just to catch our breath and remember WHY we were getting married.

A pre shoot is a great time to do that. We take our time to get some amazing shots and really just enjoy the break from everything. When I film it's really just hanging out capturing candid moments and it's actually fun and relaxing. Fortunately for me I have a very easy going personality and often receive comments from brides that I help them relax and just be themselves. That's probably because the most important thing to me at a wedding is that you enjoy your wedding. It's not the video, nor the pictures, nor the cake or anything else. It's your experience! Everything else will fall into place if you focus on the reason WHY you are getting married and surround yourself with others who do the same.

I absolutely love filming and enjoying the experience of the day and you should too!

Jared + Kristen Eyring // Salt Lake Temple

Jared and Kristen's same day edit from today. It was a beautiful fall day with the lovely Jessica Kettle from www.jessicakettle.com. Jared said he had a headache until he watched the video at the wedding dinner, then his headache was magically gone. Perhaps this could be a source of future 'headache remedy" in the future :)

Rusty + Jenna's Teaser // San Diego Temple

Not only are Rusty and Jenna incredibly kind, loving and spiritual - they are crazy fun! Had a great time in Southern California escaping the snow storms in Utah :)

Jared + Eden's Teaser // Manti Temple

Jared & Eden are an amazing example of temple marriage. They are both so giving and centered on Jesus Christ and I felt honored to film their wedding.

Check out the new park below which was just stunning for the video!
