Rachel + Hayden Anniversary Photos | Antelope Island

Sometimes I start to miss my favorite shooting locations if it’s been a while since I last enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding landscape. When I was looking for an excuse to photograph again at Antelope Island, I was so grateful at how willing Rachel and Hayden were to participate in a shoot.

Rachel + Hayden are the most darling, fun married couple. I love how this shoot turned out! We did a couples session, which is just unique to an engagement session in that you aren’t focusing on the ring and the puppy love, and more on the enduring romance that has cemented their newlywed months or years. It’s always a treat to see couples and their love for each other in any stage of their relationship!
