This video gives me all the sentimental dreamy feels of love and family. I loved being here for Braxten and JT’s sealing. Having known Braxten and being close friends with her sister, her, and her family, it was such a sweet day to get to be a part of. JT is a man of respect and kindness and he and Braxten are the kindeset couple. This day at the Salt Lake temple was the most perfect day for a wedding. They are all things lovely and dreamy and I think they may have possibly made this my favorite wedding video ever. So much love and many many congrats to @braxtenthegirl and @takeonjt! Now go feel the love and watch the rest! Braxten & JT | Salt Lake Temple from Elsa Jensen on...

There is nothing more stunning than a brand new bride and the beauty that comes from the love between her and her soon to be husband. Tibble Fork was the most perfect and beautiful place to film Braxten and JT for his first look at her as his bride and the most lovely backdrop for the two of them. I can’t wait for their wedding!

This wedding, this wedding, THIS WEDDING! Oh how I love filming people – especially the love between people. And Jourdan and George’s love is contagious. They are the happiest of couples. Ever. They exude that bright and shining love and you can’t help but be happy when you’re around them too. They radiated happy love throughout the whole Salt Lake Temple and it was plain to see. I’m not usually one to say ‘You should watch the all of this’, but you should really watch the rest of this. It’ll make you happy 😁 Congrats again to @jourd and @george_nielsen!

This is my dear friend Whitney. I love her – she is part of a sisterhood of friends of mine that are so near and dear to my heart and I think the world of her. She is such a good supportive listener with the happiest and kindest heart and a laughable nature of brightness that makes anyone laugh with her. I was friends with Whitney for a little while before I met David and the first time I did, it was so plain to see that they were a perfect match. They are the greatest, most supportive, and kindest couple. Friends weddings are just the best – don’t you think?? Whitney & David from Elsa Jensen on...

Here it is – the end of Megan and Jason’s wedding! This reception was so much fun – it was full of color, beauty, life, and so much happiness! Louland Falls was the perfect spot to hold the entire event. From speeches to dancing, food and decorations, the whole night was a special event that everyone enjoyed. I so enjoyed being a part of Megan & Jason’s wedding – they are the sweetest and more endearing couple that are so right for each other. Many happiness to them in all the years to come! If you haven’t already, take a look at the rest of their wedding here and...

Oh these two are so cute! Look at how sweet they are with each other. Their ceremony had been such a special event at Louland Falls and you could tell how it kept them on a wonderful high for their bridal pictures. We walked up the beautiful canyon of Louland Falls and had the most stunning backdrop – it made for the most perfect combination. If you haven’t seen Megan and Jason’s ceremony, you should make sure to – its right over...

I don’t care what people say about Tibble Fork – it will always be one of my favorite spots, and I think I love it even more because of how perfect it was for these bridals. Jessie and Cole’s bridals were a dream – they are such a sweet couple and you could feel their excited energy. I loved being there with them as their photographer and as they shared their love and excitement for their upcoming wedding in Utah. I am so excited to share with you their wedding soon! Stay tuned for that 😉 Beautiful florals by: Jacelyn Bolton of...

This wedding was one of those weddings that I loved being a part of so much, that I was sad to be done editing the pictures – hence, why I will be posting multiple blog posts for just this wedding 😉 Hey! There were just too many good pictures! Megan and Jason are the sweetest and most caring couple – they love each other truly and deeply and their love radiates to everyone else and is seen in how they treat others too. Their beautiful ceremony up at the gorgeous Louland Falls by Park City was the perfect place to host their beginning. With family and friends gathered, the procession and ceremony was a special event full of love, happiness, and even a butterfly release. I’m so glad that I could be a part of their day and can’t WAIT to show you more of it – so keep an eye out for it!...

This photo shoot was probably one of the best (I know I say that a lot, but hear me out). It seemed doomed from the start – it was during those incredibly rainy and days for Utah in the spring where we couldn’t catch a minute without water, and on top of it, this was the only day that Megan’s gorgeous bouquet would be ready. I was extremely worried we were going to be poured down on from the gray gloomy clouds above while I drove to the Provo Castle, but as soon as Megan arrived, everything worked out perfectly – and with no rain! All of the plants were so lush and green in that gorgeous orchard and the lighting was simply stunning – add in Megan’s beautiful dress and infectious smile, and we were set. I love love love these photos and I hope you do too! Here is to Megan’s wedding (which is happening today) – may it be the most beautiful day! ...

One year ago, I set out to Oakdale, California for my very best friend’s wedding. Not only was it a glorious day to be a part of and be in, it also jump started my experiences in photographing and filming weddings. It is, what I believe, the reason that I gained wedding recognition and I am ever so grateful to my dear friend and her husband for asking me to start with their wedding. It was a beautiful wedding at the Oakland LDS Temple in Oakland, California, and I loved the beautiful place that it was. We also stopped to do some bridals the day before in the beautiful barely blooming almond tree fields in Oakdale, California. In memory and recognition of that day, I feel its only appropriate to share these pictures (they do hold some of my most favorite pictures ever, after all). Happy one year anniversary Boltons! ...

I’ve been feeling so lucky with opportunities lately. My good friend Annie got married last weekend and I was not only able to be a part of the wedding by being a bridesmaid, but I was also asked by her to make a little bridal video for her reception. We went to the Salt Lake Capital building to film and spent the time there capturing footage of Annie and Trent together. I had such a great time with them and developing my skills in video. I know that I sure loved making this video – I hope you enjoy it! Annie & Trent from Elsa Jensen on...

I absolutely can’t get over this wedding. Kendall was my roommate for the past semester at BYU-Idaho and I have loved chatting wedding plans and details with her all semester, so it was even more fun when the wedding came to life. It was full of beauty and she and Tyson were too. They were kind enough to let me be a part of their whole day and film it. I’ve been loving trying my hand at video on my own and I think there’s just something so lovely about seeing sweet moments in motion, especially from these two.

I was watching 27 Dresses the other day – have you ever seen that movie? It’s about a girl that’s ‘always a bridesmaid, never a bride’ and she absolutely loves weddings – they are her passion. I think I might feel her on that one. The more I get the opportunity to spend my days photographing weddings, the more I realize just how much I love it! One of my most favorite moments of a wedding at the Salt Lake Temple has to be when the bride and groom walks out of the temple for the first time. Being a wedding photographer has its sweet moments and that is definitely one of them – to watch this couple come out and be greeted by their sweet family and friends with such happy moments is just a dream. I loved being able to share this day with Taylor and Celeste – they give sweetness and kindness a new definition. ...

I think that there isn’t anything cooler than following a couple through their engagement and marriage. Chelsea and Alex have been such a wonderful couple to become friends with and experience their love and relationship firsthand. They are fun loving and laid back at the same time and the way they interact with each other is so sweet. You can tell how much they love each other and see their personalities in each picture. I loved this wedding – here is just a small sample of their...

Bridals have got to be some of my favorite things to shoot – its all the love and anticipation of an upcoming wedding with all the time and a perfect golden sunset. And this day was perfect for a sunset! We went down near the Jordan River Parkway for this shoot and it was a dreamy scene that fit exactly what Chelsea and Alex were looking for. They are such a fun and sweet couple – Alex’s face when he saw Chelsea for the first time was so precious and sweet! These bridals were definitely proof of that and their wedding was a treat that I can’t wait to share! For now, enjoy the bridals of Chelsea and Alex Peterson!...

If there is one thing that I think I love photographing the most, its weddings. It’s a day full of hustle and bustle and pure happiness that makes my job so much more exhilarating and fun! As I’ve been emerging into the wedding photography business, I’ve had more fun getting to spend time with my clients on their special day, and I think I’ve got to be honest when I say that the Covington’s were my absolute favorite! These two were so full of love and fun, it wasn’t hard to waste away the day shooting their new marriage. It was a beautiful day at the Salt Lake Temple for any wedding, but this one had to have been the best – thanks for letting me share your day with you Katie and...

These bridals were absolutely wonderful! Tibble Fork Canyon was absolutely beautiful this time of year and the lighting and green trees made for the most serene feel. Being with Katie and Ashton a week before their wedding was an exciting feel and it definitely made for some wonderful pictures! Isn’t Utah just the best place for...
