Natural & Joyful Photography



Why Weddings, Coley?



I love the people (yeah, that's you and your weird friends), the fast pace and high energy, and the artistic nature of weddings! That wedding intensity puts me right into "happy work dog mode" so feel free to refer to me as your wedding border collie. I love making genuine connections and friendships by interacting, talking, and (best of all) laughing my guts out with my couples. Being your hype girl is something that I genuinely enjoy! Oh - I also like dancing like a fool, so bring on the beats DJ!

9 years wedding of experience

 

With almost a decade of experience, I have so many gems to share! I want to bring my knowledge, efficiency, style, confidence, and relaxed, upbeat vibes to your photography and sessions. Take confidence knowing that I can problem solve, be flexible and handle the shifts a wedding day will take, and I can do it all with a smile on my face, because I'm lovin' this!

 

I've photographed over 300 weddings

 

I've experienced a lot of unique couples and ideas in my photography career, and amongst the venues, elopements, micro weddings, and big sha-bangs one thing always remains true - You Do You Honey! Whether you want an intimate ceremony amongst the pines or to have 300 of your closest friends and family at your ceremony and celebrations I'm thrilled and honored to be there with you!

Amazing vendor network for referrals

 

 

Through working weddings and events for 9 years I have found many amazing talents in the wedding industry and love to refer their talents to you. I only refer vendors that have provided previous clients wonderful service and results and work peacefully with other vendors.

True to Life, Vibrant Colors

 

I strive for capturing your day as you carefully planned it. True to life colors, capturing real reactions and candid interactions. I want to capture your day in a way you can revisit the memories any time and be blissfully transported back in time with your love.

LDS wedding?


Hiiiiiii Utah! I see you!


Latter day Saints wedding days consistently have a flow and timeline slightly different than other weddings, so I have created wedding packages crafted specifically for an LDS wedding. If this is your wedding vibe then click the button to be directed to my LDS wedding guide!

Testimonial

"We felt comfortable and able to be ourselves..."


"What all can I say about Coley? SO much. She responds in a timely manner and is SO easy to talk to. I had quite a few questions about locations and which outfits and Coley was always just a text away.


My fiancé dislikes photo shoots, but he told me that he had SO much fun during this shoot, and didn't feel like we were at a "stuffy formal" photo shoot. We just felt like we were hanging out having fun with Coley. We felt comfortable and able to be ourselves, which translated to our pictures--we look at ease and in love! The photos Coley sent to me were ENCHANTING!

Coley, what if we're awkward?


We're all a little awkward and that's okay! My goal isn't to photograph something you aren't, but to capture you as the best that you are! I will help guide you both through poses, movements and prompts that help you move and interact with each other naturally and keep you feeling more like yourselves and less like mannequins. In the end you'll have gorgeous photos of yourselves you'll want to keep forever, and yes, your future grandchildren will look at the photos of your younger selves and say, "Whoa..  you were a stone cold fox!"

The best way for us to get comfy in front of the camera before your big day!

Your engagement session is important for a few reasons. One! They are fantastic for your announcements and having amazing pictures of your glorious selves together. Two! They are our first interaction during a photo session and it is great to break that ice of being in front of my camera prior to your wedding day. You two get to flirt, kiss, laugh and goof around while we hang out and laugh. You both get the opportunity to see how I ebb and flow as a photographer and I get to know you better so I can tailor your experience and prompts for you to better fit our time and your galleries to your unique relationship.

How do we choose a location for our pre-wedding sessions?


I can and will help! Through years of photographing all over Utah mountains, deserts, National Parks, studios and Salt Flats I can tell you about what to expect at different times of the year. Temperatures, wind conditions, snow and heat, wild flowers and fall leaves, amount of travelers and more - I've got the scoop! I also like to consider factors such as your story together, what you love to do together, your wedding theme and colors, and the season. I will gladly help you find the best location to match what you're dreaming of.


Why would I need a second photographer Coley?


Benefits of a Second Photographer



I know my second photographers very well (my best friend and my sister - I know, best job ever, right?) and we work together as smooth as McDonald's ice cream.


My second photographers handle directing, lighting, decision making and posing masterfully. Because of the trust I have in my second photographers I can confidently have them photograph elements of your day independently of me.


There are important moments that  frequently occur simultaneously, making it very difficult (if not impossible) for one photographer to capture solo. Some examples are:


-Getting ready parties located in different locations or rooms.

-You and your partner's first reactions to seeing each other during your first look and coming down the aisle.

-Family portraits and cocktail hour.

-Your private last dance during send off prep.


With two of us there will be double the memory cards recording the once in a lifetime moments from your day, and always a back up photographer ready to fully take over the day (heaven forbid) something were to happen to one of us or our gear.


Having two photographers brings ease to your day. There are always extra helping hands and combined creativity and execution from your photographers, ready for each moment and ready to divide and conquer!

-Videography-


Memories in Motion

I firmly believe photography is the heart of your wedding day, and videography serves as the perfect companion, enhancing and preserving the depth and emotion of your most important moments. Video possesses a unique ability to capture mannerisms and subtle nuances in a way that photography simply can’t replicate.

 Imagine a year later on your anniversary cuddling on the couch together with your fur baby and watching your wedding highlights play as a cinematic video, listening to your honey recite their personal vows to you again. Watching your dip that you practiced in the kitchen for 3 months to perform during your first dance. Getting to see how your dress moved as you walked across the garden. It brings that fiery love and excitement of your day to the forefront of your memory like it all happened just yesterday.

   We DO have a professional videographer on our team, and we very happily provide videography as an add-on service for our couples!

FAQ

Where are you based and do you travel?

I'm based in Springville, Utah - about 45 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City, 1 hour to Park City, 3 hours to Moab and 4 hours to St. George. I love traveling all over our beautiful state, from Logan to St. George and everything in between!

How do you photograph weddings?

I love to laugh, witty banter, and talking about nerdy things, so be prepared for that. I love being involved prior to your wedding day to help choose vendors, a location (or locations) for sessions, setting a timeline with you and your wedding planner, and more. It's important to me your day feels like you, so helping you find ways to celebrate that incorporate some of your favorite things to do and about your story is high on my list. On your wedding day I want you to feel taken care of and able to focus on being with the people who matter most to you. I want to capture the mood and emotions, the calm and explosive moments; from the tiny details in your dress to your drunk best man dancing the cupid shuffle. I'll give verbal and visual direction and motions while having your couple photos taken so you can relax and focus more on how good your partner looks than "I don't know what to do with my hands..."
I'm a go with the flow, witty, energetic goofball that can't wait to be your border collie for the day!

When will we get our photos?

You will receive a "Sneak Peek Gallery" of about 20-30 photos within 72 hours of your wedding day. Your full wedding gallery will be delivered in an online gallery via an emailed link with all your photos within maximum 8 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). From your online galleries you can download all your beautiful photos, share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints and albums!

How many pictures will we receive?

I do not limit the amount of images that I deliver to you! I commonly deliver between 100 - 150 images per hour photographed on a wedding day. An average wedding gallery size for a Lilac Package (8 hours wedding day) is 900 - 1,200 images.

Do you have back-up gear?

Yes! All of our cameras have dual card slots, which means each holds two memory cards and records all of your images on both cards simultaneously. This is creating a back-up of your images immediately in camera. Each photographer shoots on two cameras during the day with a minimum of two back up cameras as well. We each come packing several lenses, flashes, batteries, memory cards, and more to every wedding. It's always better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it! (Thanks mom.)
