PLEASE VOTE FOR US! | Ultimate Utah Wedding

Mitch — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 16:20:05 +0000

Last year we participated in the University of Utah’s ‘Ultimate Utah Wedding‘ competition, and thanks to all of your votes, WE WON! Well, we’ve kinda gotten a taste for it so we’re asking for your help again this year.

- PLEASE VOTE! -

These images are from the engagement session that Heidi and I did with this year’s winning couple, Katrina & Lee. We did a combination of in-studio and on-location on The U campus to highlight our breadth of style (sadly Logan was shooting a wedding in Wyoming on the only day that we could schedule them, but she was there in spirit).

Enjoy, and then be sure to head on over to the Ultimate Utah Wedding site to vote for us (and whichever invitation design you like). Voting ends on Friday, July 22nd at Noon, so please don’t delay. Tell you friends! And as always, thank you all for your support!

Ultimate Utah Wedding | The Tower at Rice Eccles | Nick + Whitnee

Logan — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 14:30:35 +0000

The Wedding Reception for Nick and Whitnee’s Ultimate Utah Wedding was just spectacular. All of the generous vendors who came together for this event gave 110%. As the sun set on the city, the view of downtown Salt Lake and the Great Salt Lake was a beautiful treat for Nick and Whitnee’s guests to take in. The Tower is one of the only places in the Salt Lake Valley where such a view can be enjoyed. Guests were served a number of mouth watering hors d’oeuvres, delightful gelato, and refreshing signature mocktails, compliments of Culinary Crafts. Scene Makers set the stage with an illuminated dance floor, red, black and white lounge furniture and gorgeous seasonal red floral designs. I loved the wintery trees and white floral balls dangling from the backdrop behind the head table. Nick and Whitnee’s red, black and white wedding cake was provided by Ambrosia. Durvin from Laughing Gravy kept the evening rolling from the reception line into the traditions of cake cutting, first dance, and the bouquet and garter toss. The party was really going when Swoop, the University of Utah Mascott dropped by for a little performance. Nick and Whitnee were surrounded by friends and family as they danced into the night. When it came time for the two to depart, they were driven away into the night in a handsome vintage Rolls Royce provided by Something Vintage, Something Blue.

Ryan and I had so much fun working with Nick and Whitnee. We would like to thank them and all of the people who voted for ZumaPhoto to be part of their Ultimate Utah Wedding. Nick and Whitnee, you two are Rock Stars!

Ultimate Utah Wedding | Salt Lake City Temple | Nick + Whitnee

Logan — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 21:11:52 +0000

Nick and Whitnee, the couple chosen for the Ultimate Utah Wedding giveaway are finally married! It was a gorgeous February day with the warm sun peeking through the cool clouds. Nick and Whitnee were sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple surrounded by family and loved ones. The couple was just glowing as they exited the temple to be greeted by everyone who came down for the ceremony. After taking the standard family and group portraits on the stairs of the temple, Ryan and I were able to take the two around the temple grounds for some personal time and some personal photos. They were so excited to be married, they couldn’t stop looking at each other. Just so, so, so cute! Whitnee’s exquisite gown is a Maggie Soterro original and her lovely boquet was created by Scene Makers. Nick’s Tux comes from Jim’s Formal Wear. When we were finished with photos, Nick and Whitnee were whisked away in a vintage Rolls Royce provided by Something Vintage Something Blue.

Here are the images from the first half of the day at the Temple. Check back soon for the reception images at The Tower at Rice Eccles Stadium at the University of Utah.

Ultimate Utah Wedding | Horseback Groomal Session | ZumaPhoto

Logan — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 17:08:43 +0000

Today is Whitnee and Nick’s big day! Their Ultimate Utah Wedding will be taking place first with a ceremony at the Salt Lake City Temple in the daytime and then their reception will be tonight at The Tower at Rice Eccles Stadium. Ryan and I will be with them all day and I am so excited to see how all of the chosen vendors will come together to create Nick and Whitnee’s dream wedding!

We did their groomal session a couple weeks ago and I have been so excited to post these shots, but I had to wait until today. We spent part of the day out at a riding stable in Bluffdale where Whitnee was able to ride the horse of her choice. It was awfully chilly but I think it was worth it. We got some shots both serene and hilarious! The rest of the time was spent downtown Salt Lake City indoors at the Rio Grande train station where the two were able to warm up and really relax with the camera. These two really are a fun, loving, photogenic, and sexy couple. Thanks N & W! You two rock!

Check back soon to see the photos from their Ultimate Utah Wedding!

Just playing catch up a bit here.

I appeared on Good Things Utah in support of the Ultimate Utah Wedding giveaway last week, but the video of Mitch on Good Things Utah wasn’t available in time to make it into our last post, but we wanted to include it here for posterity. I don’t set fire to the studio or anything!

Expand to view the full post for the embedded segment as well as the tag-along video that was produced for the show but never aired.

Also, the tag-along video that Creativ did for the show didn’t get aired after all, but I wanted to make it available, so here ’tis!
