Amangiri Proposal | Destination Photography

November 22, 2022

Amangiri Proposal

I love being a part of proposals. I always feel so grateful to be able to photograph such special moments in my clients’ lives. This destination Amangiri proposal was perfect! I will take any chance I can get to photograph at this gorgeous location.

Farouk planned the perfect celebration for Sammy’s 26th birthday. Of course, he thought out everything to the finest detail. First, he booked a trip to the most sought-after resort in the desert, Amangiri. Second, he told her that he scheduled a photo session for her birthday while they were there, so she would be photo ready when he got down on one knee. Then, just as the sun was going down during the photo session, Farouk dropped down and popped the question with a sweet little birthday gift, that represented her ring. Sammy was completely surprised, as soon as she could compose herself she said yes! I loved their classic style. Sammy’s black dress contrasts beautifully against the desert background. And can you believe that ring? Stunning!

If you’ve never been to Amangiri, it is like nothing else. It’s in the middle of the Utah desert, mixing the red rock with a luxurious stay. It’s secluded but has every amenity.

Stylish Amangiri Couple Session

May 22, 2019

These two came to Amangiri to celebrate her birthday, every year for her birthday she celebrates in a new location and hires a photographer to do a photo shoot for her. Amangiri is the perfect place to celebrate something special!  The staff will make sure to do anything and everything to make it a special getaway!  Their motto is “No request is too great and no detail too small.”  I have seen that over and over every time I visit for photo shoots.

I was so excited when she showed me what they would be wearing, she had so many amazing outfits, her style was so beautiful!  She planned every little detail.  When she travels to new destinations for her shoots, she coordinates her outfits to the scenery so that everything goes together.  I am going to take this tip for when I travel!   Her outfits were perfect for the beautiful desert landscapes of Southern Utah and Northern Arizona.  Her first outfit is from Free People and her amazing boots are from Zimmermann.  Her stunning dress at the end is from Zimmermann with he Gucci’s.

We spent the first half of the shoot around the resort, there are so many stunning locations around, every corner there is something amazing.  To end the shoot we made the 25 minute drive and one mile hike to see the stunning view of Horseshoe Bend.  I love the views there at sunset, it is one of the most beautiful places.  Her dress was so perfect for the sunset views and red rocks.  I loved the movement in her dress, when choosing your outfits for photo shoots, think about how it moves, this can create some fun elements to work with while we photograph.

I think we all need to celebrate our birthdays this way!  Travel to somewhere new and have a photo shoot to celebrate a new year!  Where would you go for your birthday celebration?

Email me to schedule your appointment. Time flies too fast, I am here to help you document all of your stages of life! Whether it be in Utah or somewhere new, I will be there!  jessica@jessicasphoto.com

Luxury Destination Wedding Venue | Amangiri Resort in Southern Utah

April 9, 2019

Amangiri is a Luxury Resort located in Canyon Point, Utah.  The hotel is apart of the luxury brand; Aman Resorts. Aman hotels are in remote locations, where you can retreat to relax or have an adventure in a beautiful landscape.  The hotel rests at the base of a beautiful mesa, and is designed around the existing sandstone.  Amangiri means “peaceful mountain” and it is just that! As you stay at The Amangiri you will feel like you are in a world on its own.  It is the perfect location for your intimate elopement, a small wedding or grand event.  I have had the opportunity to photograph here for over 6 years, and I am lucky to be one of their preferred photographers.  I have photographed over 16 different sessions at the property including proposals, intimate engagement sessions, anniversary sessions, maternity sessions, elopements, intimate weddings and birthday celebrations.  Every event is perfect. Aman Resorts pride themselves with making anything possible, “no request is too great and no detail too small.”  I have seen this in action over and over again. The event coordinators will do whatever it takes to make your wedding dreams a reality.  They have the most amazing staff. You will receive the highest quality of service while at an Aman Resort.

I have met some of the most wonderful people while photographing at Amangiri, and many of them I still do photoshoots with.  The very first shoot that I had was a surprise proposal, where I posed as another guest on a helicopter tour and secretly photographed him popping the question. Click here to see that amazing engagement shoot!   Since then I have photographed other big events for this couple and it is truly an honor to continue to document their lives.  The other day I received a text from him informing me that they were expecting, and I was the first person that they had told!  It was such an honor to get that message, I can’t wait to meet their little one!  I love to continue working with the clients that I meet at the resort.

Weddings at Amangiri are some of my favorite!  As you are trying to plan your luxury destination wedding, consider this beautiful and unique location.  You can have your ceremony at the resort, or they have over 600 acres of property where your ceremony can be held.  I have photographed an elopement where they had a traditional Navajo Ceremony, it was one of the most unique ceremonies I have ever attended.  You can see that wedding here.  There are other amazing locations at the resort. For inspiration, clink on this link to see a wedding in the Desert lounge. They hired By Bloomers to put together some amazing floral arrangments.  The most recent wedding that I photographed took place in a rock canyon on the property and it was one of the most beautiful ceremony locations that I have ever photographed. The wedding was intimate with their immediate family and a few friends, to be inspired head a few posts back to this blog post.

If you are planning a trip to Amangiri, I would love to photograph you in this unique and inspiring location. The portraits created will be images that you will cherish. I often photograph at the resort and at other great locations close by in a single shoot. Some of the most unique areas near the resort include Horseshoe Bend, Lake Powell, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Antelope Canyon to name a few.  The options are endless!  Or if you are planning a wedding or event I would love to be a part of your big day!  If you are planning an Amangiri wedding or an Aman Resort Wedding email me at jessica@jessicasphoto.com and I would love to discuss details with you!

While you are at Amangiri they have so many trails to explore. One of my favorites is the hike to the Broken Arrow Cave. It happens to be the location from the opening scene of the movie Broken Arrow, hence the name, and is now outdoor studio for the very talented painter Ulrike Arnold. paints, she has painted all of the earth paintings found around the resort.  I have become good friends with her and have photographed her work for her.  She currently has a painting hanging at the United Nations Headquarters.

If you have a large group you can stay at the Mesa Home pictured below. This location is away from the main resort and provides the perfect intimate and secluded setting to host your guests.

If you are wanting more of an adventure you must try one of the Via Ferrata’s that they have on property.  A Via Ferrata is Italian and means Iron Road. On a rock face there are metal rungs where you climb to the top of Studhorse Mesa and then cross over a suspension bridge that is two hundred and thirty two feet long and over the top of a six hundred foot gorge.  It was one of the most amazing experiences!  The views from the top were unreal!

The resort also offers excursions on Lake Powell. My favorite was boating to and then kayaking through Labyrnth Canyon.
