Matt and Jen chose to celebrate their 10 Year Anniversary at the beautiful Amangiri in Southern Utah. Jen is a talented interior designer, she wanted to be inspired by the unique architecture and design at the Amangiri. We barely escaped a desert storm, the winds and rain were threatening to ruin the shoot, but it held off for us to get these stunning images. The dark and stormy sky at the end was so beautiful and perfect!
I can’t believe this wedding took place almost a year ago! Everything about this wedding was perfect! The staff at The Amangiri are truly amazing, they will do whatever possible to serve their guests. Last year I photographed five sessions down there and they were all so kind and made sure that I was taken care of with anything that I needed. The Amangiri is located near Page, Arizona, it is tucked away in the desert canyons. The architecture reflects the desert landscape and creates a earthy experience unlike any other. I highly recommend this venue for anyone planning a destination wedding.
This was such a sweet moment, Detria started getting emotional as she read her vows to her kids and to Andy’s son, as soon as she started getting emotional, Andy’s little boy was on the edge of his seat. He couldn’t sit there, he had to move to the side of Detria and comfort her as she finished. It was a tender moment!

This helipcopter proposal was featured on Utah Bride Blog a while back and I am excited to finally share these proposal photos in Southern Utah.
Darshan contacted me several months before he was going to pop the question to his girlfriend Tulsi, in December in 2013. He wanted to have the proposal photographed and then some engagement photos afterward. Darshan told her they would be visiting Southern Utah for a camping and fishing trip. When they arrived she was surprised with a unique stay at the amazing Amangiri Resort for a relaxing vacation. While they were there he also surprised her with a helicopter ride to view the stunning Southern Utah scenery. From the helicopter we were able to view Horseshoe Bend and Lake Powell. The helicopter landed on Tower Butte which is only accessible by helicopter.
My husband and I posed as guests at the resort and went along on the helicopter ride with the happy couple. Darshan and I had decided on a sign so I would know where he planned on proposing. He found his spot and got down on one knee and asked the question. Tulsi was completely surprised and said yes!
Once we returned to the resort we took some engagement photos, everything turned out perfect!
I have loved being a photographer at the Aman Resorts, the Amangiri is so unique and it resembles the beauty of Southern Utah.
