Maddie & Tyler’s Destination Salt Flats Engagements

Posted in: Engagements

A bold, romantic session at one of my signature destinations!

Maddie & Tyler’s destination salt flats engagements were everything I love documenting — cinematic landscapes, intentional storytelling, and a couple whose chemistry feels effortless and joyful! These two originally found me while planning their Temecula vineyard wedding at Ponte Winery, and from the moment we connected, it was clear we shared the same heartbeat: turning photos into real memories!

When they told me they’d always dreamed of seeing the Bonneville Salt Flats in person after being captivated by them online, I knew we had to make it happen! And the best part? They trusted me fully to craft an experience that felt fun, meaningful, and elevated — because the Salt Flats are one of my signature destinations, and I know how to make them shine uniquely for every couple!

Why Maddie & Tyler Chose Destination Salt Flats Engagements

Maddie said she instantly resonated with my approach — the way I prioritize presence, create natural movement, and intentionally guide my couples so their photos feel emotional and effortless! She didn’t just want pretty photos… she wanted an experience she’d remember forever!

So they flew out to Utah, ready to make a core memory together in a place they had only ever dreamed of seeing!

A Bold, Romantic Palette Against the Cool-Toned Landscape

When Maddie stepped out in her bold red dress, it was literal magic! The contrast of her warm, flowing gown against the cool white salt created the dreamiest canvas — like they were dancing on a pastel planet made just for them!

She also said it was extra fun wearing her dress that evening because earlier they visited East High School from High School Musical. The Wildcat energy was REAL! 🔥
And yes… we absolutely sang a lyric or two as the wind picked up! At one point I even told them that Troy & Gabriella’s love story had nothing on theirs — and honestly? It was true!

Her confident movement, the wind catching her dress, the genuine laughter between the two of them — every moment was cinematic, playful, and full of personality!

The Power of Golden Hour at Your Destination Salt Flats Engagements

Golden hour at the Salt Flats is unmatched! As the light softened and the mountains turned hazy blue, Maddie slipped into her second look — a crisp white outfit paired with her custom jean jacket reading “Mrs. Jorgensen.”

This moment felt iconic!
Soft light, sentimental styling, and a sense of “this is really happening!” settling in as Tyler held her close. The Salt Flats were quiet, peaceful, and theirs alone for those final frames — exactly why couples love destination salt flats engagements!
