If you track with us, you probably know we hail from the Land , and have a small obsession with traveling for our creative work. Our most recent adventure took five of our team from Cleveland to Utah. All for the effort to visually capture and tell the story of Natasha + Prashant [ Link to their Blog and artwork here ].

landscape photography UtahThis was a special trip for me personally, as I’ve always had a soft spot for American Southwest.  There’s something about the rugged landscape that’s always drawn my heart.


Before I get too far, above is a short film we made after day 2 of our trip out there.

Clouds over Mountains near Park City UtahI love the reality of the wild.  I’m a backpacker in my spare time, and being out in the terrain with our couple and our team inspired me beyond just the creativity at hand.

behind the scenes wedding videoWe conducted personal interviews of the wedding film we’re crafting for Natasha + Prashant.  Instead of doing them in a dimly lit room, we conducted them right out on the water of the Salt Flats themselves.

SONY FS7 With Canon 200LPerhaps my favorite lens we own is our 200mm Canon F2.  It’s a gem.  Tack sharp even wide open, and ridiculous when paired with our Sony FS7.

Salt Flats Utahsalt flats wedding videographyI’m excited for you to see the wedding film we’re currently in production on.  Filming the interview portion and segments of our creative time out on the expanse of water was one of the highlights of the trip for me.

Sunset over Salt Lake City UtahIt’s not Utah that I loved, so much as the chance to be one step closer to the wild.  The chance to merge the passion I have for nature and the outdoors with our professional work as destination wedding photographers and videographers?  Something I’ll never take lightly; I’m forever thankful for what opportunities my professional life makes happen.
