I haven’t edited all the pictures yet but I picked out a few so that some of my family and others interested can see.
More to come… specially many more from the reception later that evening.
Wedding and Reception were both held at the Red Butte garden.
We didn’t have a lot of time for setup portraits between the ceremony and reception.
But that was just as well as they asked me to document and not be in their face too much.
I like that style anyway capture the emotions of the day.
The Engagements and Bridals were more about creation, this one was about capturing the feelings of the day.
To see the full gallery of ALL the wedding pictures.
(Warning… there’s a lot. The first 150 should give you a good run down)
I sure made that place look like a forrest!
All prepped and ready to get married.
Still hasn’t seen her. But I’m sure he’s excited.
Some Details
Tried something new with the rind.
They had beautiful toasting glasses.
I don’t have a macro lens so I couldn’t get super close anyway.
The ring shots might have been forgotten if the best man hadn’t brought it to me before the ceremony.
Props to him.
When everyone is super excited about the flowers It’s time to start taking a bunch of pictures of flowers.
Probably would have done it anyway while I waited. But I more and more I see how much the setting of their reception means to brides.
What wedding event would be complete without a picture of the cake.
There weren’t too many posed shots that evening.
There’s a bunch of shots of them standing there as they listened to the pre-ceremony speaker.
This is just on of the ones i liked the framing of.
They’ll probably like the other pictures with more expression.
Bridesmaids watching the ceremony.
Exits are always a lot of fun.
Whoever told the mom that white pedals would be better… well they were right.
So it wasn’t all just rain.
Here’s what was going on about 2 minutes before the rain started falling.
And then later at the reception center we were able to take a couple more.
So it was a couple weeks ago that I was in Manti, Utah doing a wedding.
We just finished with the group pictures.
We were a few pictures into the couple shots and they were running a bit late to start with.
I wanted to go up around the building (temple) the other way around and take a picture with the temple in the background.
As soon as we started to go up the hill it started to rain a little. By the time we got up the hill it was too late… the rain started to come down in buckets.
I used my reflector to try to cover them up… but they were still game for one last picture.
Of course it was bound to be awesome! Too bad you can’t see just how much rain was falling.
We were all soaked to the bone.
On the drive back I don’t think I’ve seen rain fall that hard in years.
I’m much more caught up on everything so I’ll post some of the recent stuff I’ve been doing.
Just a quick post of a couple pictures

It’s always bright and blue at the bountiful temple.
Makes for great shots from the magnificent view up on the hill.
Still would have prefered cloudy, but I’ll take deep blue skies as a consolation.
Latest wedding I’ve finished editing.
SLC temple… Young Mexican Couple.
There are some awesome silhouettes and the trees on temple square were brilliant pink.
Update: I’m more on the ball today so I’m adding some pictures to the blog.
Saturday on a beautiful spring day…
it’s not common to not have a picture without a billion people in the background.
This is what I call a moody picture.
Everyone will probably love the pink trees but this will still be one of my favs
I think it’s a bit much to put each one as a seperate post.
And again I’ll only link the galleries online for now… sorry!
It means more work for you (clicking on links and searching for the best ones)
But happily it means less work for me… (Just writing, which i’m fast at)
Susana & Daniel
See online gallery
(my first completely foreign couple)
Location: Tahitian Noni gardens in the morning: Provo.
Suprisingly I’ve never been there until now.
Great place! It is $50 however, be forewarned.
Just did their wedding last Thursday.
Vilja & Jordan

They said that aren’t big fans of getting pictures taken…
If it wasn’t me then probably no one. (Which is a nice compliment)
They felt more comfortable being goofy.
Location: North Utah Lake… at this random park.
The wedding is in June
Sarah & Spencer
See Online Gallery
Location: Downtown SLC and Sugarhouse Park
Their Wedding is this friday and her bridals were just posted as well.
Brittany & Michael
See Online Gallery
Location: Mapleton Park and Surrounding Farmlands
It’s a lot of fun to just go out with no big plans for location in mind
and to just be able to stop the car along the road when you see something cool.
Their wedding is coming up in June
Sarah & Garth
See Online Gallery
Location: Provo River Trail (Near Utah Lake)
The picked the spot and I’ve never been there so that was neat.
I just did their wedding in bountiful last Saturday. Stay tuned.
Trinity & Jason
See Online Gallery
Location: Aspen Grove and Provo Canyon
Trinity was a tough girl… see her shoes? And then see all that snow!
Again: Sorry about not posting a picture with each one. But why an entree when you can have the whole buffet?
I figure if I put posts before i get around to posting picture
I’ll get around to filling them up sooner than if not.
But at least I can put up the link to their gallery online.
(Which I always do quite quickly)
UPDATE: Here’s a picture
Apparently it’s one of their favorites.
I liked it… but I was unsure what their reaction would be.
—-
The lambson wedding was in Salt Lake City and the Reception on the mountainside of Provo.
Believe it or not it was actually my first outdoor reception
I guess it’s not a common thing around here in Utah.
But I really really liked it.
It was all very picturesque… even though it becomes near impossible to take great pictures toward the late part of the evening.
But some of them at sunset and dusk are awesome and pleasently moody.
I’ll be doing a few more this summer and I’m looking forward to each one of them… though I doubt any of them come close in terms of amazing views.
(You could see the whole valley from the lawn!)
That being said until I get the time to post some of the pictures you can find some here:
Lambson Wedding Pictures
I couldn’t figure out how to organize them like I usually do (the first few pictures are supposed to be of the happy couple)
I should re-upload them now that I know how to do it in this new release of Lightroom.

BTW Sam Lambson knows how to do web-programming and we actually bartered in exchange for his wedding pictures.
Programming time = wedding pictures
I would offer that same deal to any web-programmer out there… I always have projects in mind.
In fact I prefer Programming to Money…. hands down!!!
I’ve already done lots of pictures for this wonderful couple,
and they are lots of fun and finally I was able to do the last event in the series…
Their Utah Reception.
