Couple Photoshoot at the Sand Dunes + A Desert Overlook | Utah Engagement Photographer
LAID-BACK COUPLES SESSION IN THE SAND DUNES IN THE UTAH DESERT
Utah has got so many great location for engagement and bridal photos. One of the coolest landscapes we have here are the sand dunes. There are several different locations in Utah that each have their own unique look of sand dunes. Down near Moab, Utah, there are the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. The cool thing about this location, is that you aren’t far from Amangiri Resort, Lake Powell, or Zion’s National Park. Moab has also got some cool dunes, and that also gets you in a cool area with all sorts of rock formations, desert views for days, and the infamous Dead Horse Point. I woke up SUPER early for a bridal photo shoot there and it was worth every minute of sleep that I didn’t get that morning. Another area that has got some really great sand dunes is Snow Canyon State Park, near St. George, Utah. I’ll link an elopement I did there down below. The sand here is a deep burnt orange and the views are stunning. For a clean white sand, you can go to Little Sahara in Eureka, Utah and there are also some in Vernal, Utah (who knew?). Little Sahara is clean and minimal, with sand dunes for miles, whereas Vernal has a small area of them, but the surrounding landscape is also gorgeous and offers some diversity in the surrounding desert landscape.
Luxury Engagement Photo Session at Amangiri Resort in Canyon Point, Utah | Tai Lee Photography | Amangiri Utah Engagement Photographer. Imagine being so far away from everything that you only hear the still, quiet sound of nature. The sound of the breeze, the rustle of desert plants, the breath of the earth. The word Amangiri means ‘peaceful mountain’ and that is exactly how it felt to be there. Not only while exploring the steep cliffs, canyons, mesas, white slot canyons, and rock formations, but also while wandering through the Amangiri Resort, with its architecture and design that honors and complements the nature surrounding it. Instead of competing with nature, it became one with it and it truly does feel like you are in the wild west. Be sure to watch the video in the link to the Southern Utah Resort because it beautifully expresses how it feels to be there.

A dreamy winter mountain engagement session and picnic. What more could you ask for. I had the honor of working with Ani + Todd last winter for this session in the Utah mountains for this snowy couple photoshoot. I also had the honor or working with Katie Bushell of Havenwood House who style this GORGEOUS winter picnic for their shoot. Megan Dunford from Persimmon floral provided the neutral bouquets to add the perfect touch of warmth to the earthy tones of the picnic set. It was intimate, and romantic, and we had the whole place to ourselves.
