creating Photos That Feel Like You

As a Utah wedding photographer, my goal is simple: help you feel completely yourselves so your photos look natural, joyful, and full of life.


Picture this: a photographer who actually wants you to be your goofiest, most in-love, unapologetic selves on your wedding day.


Weird faces? Yes.

Inside jokes? Absolutely.

Uncontrollable laughter? Highly encouraged.


So what do those photos end up looking like?


“Like the happiest, most natural version of ourselves.”


While you’re fully living your day — laughing with friends, squeezing each other’s hands, soaking in every moment — I’ll be right there documenting it all as it unfolds. And when you finally see your gallery, you’ll witness what everyone else saw all along: two people completely in love, surrounded by joy, laughter, and the people who matter most.

Your Wedding Day is Meant to be Lived

Beautiful photos shouldn't interrupt your experience - they should preserve it.

Your wedding day isn’t about stopping every few minutes for photos.


It’s about laughing with your friends, hugging your family, and soaking in every moment.


My role is to step into that rhythm with you. I guide when it’s helpful, step back when it matters, and capture the real moments as they unfold.


Years from now, your photos won’t just look beautiful —

they’ll feel exactly like the memories you lived.

You Belong Here


Love is love, and I’m proud to celebrate all couples, genders, orientations, cultures, and backgrounds.

5 Star Review


Working with Coley was a breath a fresh air. Her energy was contagious, light-hearted, and professional all at once which made working with her seem effortless.

She delivered hundreds and hundreds of amazing photos, capturing a unique part of our story in every one. Her package options were robust, fairly priced, and in the end worth every single penny.

We would recommend Coley a hundred times over - she truly helped make our wedding day unforgettable.

FAQ

Do you travel for photoshoots?

Absolutely! I'm based in Springville, Utah which is about 45 minutes from Salt Lake City, 3 hours from Moab, 2.5 hours from the Salt Flats, 4 hours from Zion NP and within 1.5 hours of most epic Utah canyons. My sessions include travel fees for Utah and Salt Lake counties, and are 0.85 cents per mile beyond that. Locations 3+ hours from my home will include a lodging fee.

What should we wear for our session?

Neutrals and earth tones are always timeless. Lighter tones and pastels for summer and spring are always dreamy and earth tones and neutrals are gorgeous for fall and winter. I'm always happy to help guide you in deciding what to wear. Trouble deciding between 2 or 3 options? Send me a photo and I'll give you my photographer opinion!

How long does it take to get our photos?

Sessions such as engagements, bridals/formals, and adventure sessions will have a two week turn around time. Weddings and elopements will have sneak peeks within 72 hours and the full gallery delivered within 8 weeks.

Do you offer albums or prints?

Yes! All wedding packages and stand-alone sessions will include a gift card to your print store so you may use your credit to purchase the print products you would like. Some wedding packages include an album, and an album can always be added to your wedding package if you would like!

Do you have payment plans?

Indeed! Your retainer payment will be $800 and the remainder of your wedding package total can be divided into as many as 5 additional payments. Payments can be made via card, Venmo, Klarna, Affirm or cash.

Do you limit how many photos we receive?

I do not set a photo limit for photos that will be delivered in wedding day gallery. I guarantee a minimum of 50 images per hour with an average of 125 images per hour photographed being delivered in your final gallery.

Do you have back-up gear?

I do! I bring a wide variety of cameras, lenses, flashes, batteries, memory cards, and more to every wedding. I photograph on two cameras through the day, and each of these cameras records on two memory cards simultaneously, creating a back up of your images in real time.
