I first met Sarah way back in the day (I think it was 1996).  I was taking a year off from college to work and ski the mountains of Utah.  Within days of arriving, I had been quickly “adopted” by Sarah and her incredibly outgoing and gregarious friends.  That winter we skied and climbed all over the Wasatch range, and even made time to leave our precious snow for a few journeys into the Utah desert.  It was the best winter of my life… 100+ days of skiing, laughing and exploring without a care in the world.  Though years had passed, all of our Utah friends had kept in some sort of communication… and when I got the email from Sarah saying she had found the man of her dreams, I was absolutely ecstatic to photograph her big day!

It took Sarah about 4 minutes to get dressed.  No fuss with this girl ever, and she looks THIS great!

Classic Sarah moment: she snuck out the back door so she could see who had arrived and what the ceremony site looked like.

Something old… gifts from her family.

Walking with her dad.  A proud moment.

Nick is peering around a corner eagerly awaiting his first glimpse of Sarah.

Finally, the moment arrives… well worth the wait.  Nick sees her for the first time.

The energy between these two is incredible.  Happy would be an understatement.

Nick’s uncle watches the wedding from a nearby window.

The kiss!

Sarah’s bouquet.

One of a few beautiful toasts offered by her family.

Listening to the toasts.

This is Nick and Sarah as they really are: always snuggling, goofing around and laughing.

Beautiful.

The new wedding bands look great!

Yummy cake!

At the reception, the kids stole the show.  Here, Sarah’s little brother takes the mic and rocks out!

Sarah’s nieces and nephews were everywhere on the dance floor.

I don’t think I can remember a wedding where more folks danced.  There was barely enough room!

She can’t help but respond when Flo Rida’s “Low” is played by the band (no joke).  Absolutely amazing!

This is a serious dip… I didn’t think they were coming up from this one, but they did without a problem.

Sarah & Nick… thanks so much for having me.  Your wedding was beautiful, intimate and a wonderful reflection of you both.  It was fantastic to be able to be there to support you and your families!  I had a wonderful time… thank you!!
