Amangiri Destination Celebration

Jamison and Heather came to Amangiri to celebrate 15 years of marriage! 15 years of marriage is definitely worth celebrating and choosing a romantic stay at Amangiri. I was so happy they chose me to take some photos of their special day. I love getting to be an Amangiri Photographer. Working with Jamison and Heather was a dream. They are such pretty people and so in love!

Amangiri is such a beautiful and high-end location that is apart of the Aman Resort Chain. Aman Resorts are the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion; they will help you create a memorable trip. The whole resort always goes above and beyond for all their guests. And even better, the views that come with the resort are breathtaking. Jamison and Heather wanted to include horses in the beautiful desert scenery, it turned out perfect! The landscape at the Amangiri is so unique; the views are unlike anything anywhere else.

I would love to work with you! Visit my website or email me to schedule your photos with me! jessica@jessicaphoto.com

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

Jackson Hole Winter Wedding | Jackson Hole Wedding Photographer

March 13, 2019

There is something so magical about winter, I love that it gets dark early, it gives us a time to rest and recover from the busier seasons. I always get a little sad when winter ends, I love cross country skiing, and I can never get enough runs in! Right now I am savoring every snow storm, even though Spring is fast approaching.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming is the perfect destination for a winter wedding. It is magical anytime of year, but there is something about the snow that creates the perfect scene for a wedding! This snow covered pine tree lane made for the perfect backdrop for this winter shoot! This location was perfect for shooting for a bit and then warming up in the car before doing more photos, Marie was such a good sport with the colder temperatures! When doing a winter shoot, be prepared to take time to warm up and wear as many layers as you can underneath, it will make all of the difference!

The bride wore a beautiful wedding dress from Jann Marie Bridal. I just love working with Jann Marie Bridal‘s dresses, she has created the most beautiful, modern yet timeless and comfortable wedding dresses. I love the way they move, the fabric drapes so perfectly. If you are looking for a wedding dress you won’t be disappointed with their designs!

For her bouquet she chose cool tones for her bouquet, with muted purples and greens. I love the mix of the dark purple tulips with the green and purple hellebores. Lexie Sandberg with Carpe Diem Floral created the most amazing bouquet for this bridal shoot. She is so talented she chooses the most beautiful flowers for her arrangements, each stem is handpicked with a purpose. Hellebore’s are one of my favorite flowers for bouquets, I can never get enough of them.

I would love to talk to you about your upcoming wedding in Jackson Hole, contact me today to learn more! jessica@jessicasphoto.com
