Emma & Gavin


Emma and Gavin had the most beautiful engagement session at the Springville Art Museum in Springville Utah. These two just radiated with so much love and passion and it was a beautiful moment to step outside of our comfort zones and try something new. Typically, I always like to encourage my couples to try something new and different for their engagement photos to step out of their comfort zone. While this isn't forced and is always a suggestion, it is a way to turn your engagement session into a mini date night, and 10/10 times couples LOVE IT. This was the case for Emma and Gavin. As a Utah Wedding Photographer, I have captured a plethora of engagement sessions but none quite like this one. It was beautiful, romantic, and everything you could ever want in a Utah engagement session.


Springville Art Museum | Springville, Utah


For this beautiful Utah engagement session with Emma and Gavin, we made our way to the Springville Art Museum in Springville, Utah. The Springville Art Museum is the oldest museum for the visual fine arts in Utah. The stunning museum is home to 2,600 pieces of artwork and ranges from Soviet Realist art and American art. Since it was originally established back in 1903, the Springville Art Museum has only grown and flourished into the stunning historic landmark that it is today. It's a 45,000-square-foot museum that has so much architectural depth and beauty and was perfect for the vibes that we were going for Emma and Gavin's engagement session.
