Utah - Day Two, Part 2

Once on the road, we drove around to the other side of Lake Jordanelle which we were able to see from the top of the mountain.

The dark storm clouds we saw on top of the mountain were gone by the time we drove through the valley.

We stopped in Samak (I think?) to rent a canoe and then got back on the road.  It was an eventful ride, as many side-of-the-road stops were made to check the security of the canoe.  Apparently it was quite loud inside their car.

When we got to the lake, our attention turned to moose and thoughts of the bridge and groom we were meeting were put on hold.

There were two bulls, a momma and a baby.  I think they liked the grass on the bottom of the lake as they were putting their heads all the way under water with only their antlers sticking out.

Once we got yelled at to move our cars off the side of the road finished taking our fill of photos,  we pulled over to a real parking lot and unloaded the canoe while waiting on the bride and groom to finish getting ready.

Anna and David had just gotten married three weeks before this shoot and were more than happy to act like newlyweds and smooch for our cameras.

I love that he was carrying her shoes for her!

What a great location for wedding photos, don't you think?

They even danced for us.

I love photographing the love people share.  The quiet moments when the eyes close as people are drawn to each other.  It makes my heart sigh.

There was no shortage of laughter between these two.  Such a special couple!

I have a thing for hands being held.

The sun was starting to get really low and dipping behind the trees, so we pushed them out in the canoe so David could row around while we took photographs from the shoreline.  Anna was such a trooper.  It was cold out and I'm sure she was covered in goosebumps, even though she looks so relaxed and laid back.

They were winking at each other.  I think winks are so great.  My husband and I like to wink at each other and now our kids are getting old enough to master this little twitch of the eye.  Such a fun way to say, "I think you're so special!"

Swoon.  He dipped her and smooched her several times for us.  

Thank you to Anna and David for being such fabulous models for us!
