Summer is in high gear so I thought it would be nice to cool down with this winter wedding. We broke tradition and did a first look a week before the wedding. I thought this worked out nice giving us a beautiful mountain setting for this moment.
I asked Shauna (bride) what her favorite 4 wedding moments were. She included 2 of mine, The first look and the in-between time. What can I say? I'm a sucker for love. Here are her answers:
1. The First Look: This was definitely one of my top favorite moments. We found a spot up Little Cottonwood Canyon that was covered with snow and had an incredible mountain range in the background. My photographer, Brian, helped me climb atop a snow-covered rock in my wedding dress (not an easy process) and then guided my patient fiance onto the same rock—blindfolded. We finally allowed him to take the blindfold off and his reaction was perfect. I've seen that look before and so I knew it was genuine. I asked him once what that look meant and he said, "It means that I know I definitely made the right decision in choosing you."
