Travel LDS Wedding Photographer: Documenting Temple Sealing Days & Destination Wedding Stories Around the World

Oakland, California Temple

A temple sealing isn’t just a ceremony—it’s a quiet, sacred moment surrounded by the people who matter most. And for many couples today, that experience doesn’t stay in one place. It becomes part of a bigger story: traveling, celebrating, and creating wedding portraits in meaningful locations around the world.

After 4+ years in the photography business, I was planning my own wedding and having such a hard time finding a photographer that understood the unique culture of an LDS wedding that lived or traveled outside of Utah for a reasonable price!

That’s when I decided to specialize in documenting LDS couples from temple sealing days to destination portraits—whether that’s in Utah, across the United States, or in places like Switzerland and the Canadian Rockies for camera shy couples.

My goal is simple:
to help you feel fully present in your wedding day while I take care of preserving every meaningful moment.

I'm a travel LDS wedding photographer based in Provo, UT. 

 I specialize in helping camera-shy couples feel confident and guided.

You don't need to know how to pose- that's my job.

Travel LDS wedding photography is more than just “taking photos at a temple.”

It usually includes a full experience like:

  • Temple sealing coverage (where permitted)

  • Family photos after the sealing

  • Couple portraits at or near the temple

  • Bridal or engagement sessions before or after the wedding

  • Destination wedding or honeymoon photography in a second location

Many of my couples choose to extend their wedding experience beyond the temple itself—into mountains, cities, or travel destinations that feel meaningful to them.

Whether that’s a quiet session in Utah Valley or an alpine lake in Canada, the goal is the same:
tell the full story of your beginning together.

Every LDS wedding day has a natural rhythm to it—peaceful, emotional, and often deeply family-centered.

My approach is designed to honor that.

Instead of overly posed or rushed photography, I focus on:

JOYFUL

TRUE TO COLOR

TIMELESS

  • Natural, documentary-style storytelling

  • Calm direction when needed (especially with family portraits)

  • Helping you stay present instead of stressed

  • Capturing real interactions, not just staged moments

Your wedding day shouldn’t feel like a photoshoot.
It should feel like your wedding day—with someone there quietly preserving it all.

One of the things I love most about LDS weddings is how centered they are on relationships.

The moment you exit the temple, everything shifts—there’s relief, joy, hugs, laughter, and often a sense of peace that’s hard to describe.

Those are the moments I pay closest attention to.

Because years from now, you won’t just want photos of what your wedding looked like—you’ll want to remember what it felt like.

Destination LDS Weddings & Travel Photography

For the couples looking for a photographer that understands the unique, sacred, and joyful union and travels outside of Utah, I gotcha girl!

Some of the places I’ve photographed or worked around include:

  • Calgary Alberta + Banff

  • Virginia

  • Italy

  • Greece

  • Georgia

  • Lake Tahoe

  • Lake Louise and the Canadian Rockies

  • Utah Valley and surrounding LDS temples

Lake Tahoe, California

Each destination brings something different:

  • quiet mountain mornings

  • European architecture and history

  • dramatic landscapes for bridal portraits

  • slower, more intentional wedding timelines

These kinds of weddings naturally create space for deeper, more meaningful photography.

From helping you plan the shot list for group & family photos to specializing in camera-shy couples, I make sure your photography experience feels seamless, so that you can soak in the begin of your forever!

Here’s what I typically help with:

Before your wedding

  • Wedding Guides (Outfit Guides, Location Guides, etc.)

  • Location suggestions (especially for travel or temple weddings)

  • Access to my “Family & Group Photos” spreadsheet as you plan!

After your wedding

  • Editing that focuses on timeless, true-to-color imagery

  • A couple of photos in 24 hours

  • A gallery that tells your full story from start to finish in 3 weeks!

My goal is always the same:
so you can focus on being present, not on managing the photography.

Most of my couples are not just looking for wedding pictures.

They’re looking for:

  • someone who understands temple wedding logistics

  • someone who respects the sacred nature of the sealing

  • someone who can travel and adapt to destination timelines

  • someone who can make them feel comfortable in front of the camera

  • someone who helps the day feel calm instead of chaotic

If that’s you, you’re exactly who I love working with.


Frequently Asked Questions

Do you travel for LDS weddings?

Yes. I specialize in destination temple weddings and travel for both temple sealings and portrait sessions.

Can you photograph inside the temple?

Photography inside the temple is not permitted, but I document everything outside before and after the sealing, including family and couple portraits.

Do we need a destination location planned?

Not at all. Some couples only need temple coverage, while others add engagement, bridal, or travel sessions. I help you plan what makes the most sense for your vision.
