Sophisticated Formal Studio Shoot with Cody and Emmy

Cody and Emmy struck a flawless balance between classy and comfortable throughout all their wedding photos. Starting with their engagement shoot, which also took place in this natural light studio in Draper, Utah, and during their formal studio photos. From the simple lily of the valley bouquet to the 7 layered wedding dress, each element was beautifully curated and styled.

If you are currently planning your formal or bridal shoot, you can find my top tips for preparing for your bridal shoot here. If you are still searching for a location, consider renting a studio. As you can see from my past work, I am a big fan of clean, timeless, and naturally lit studio photoshoots. They are perfect for bridals because you don’t have to worry about the weather or keeping your dress clean. They also allow the focus to be on your personality and wedding details, without any distractions.

Studio locations are perfect not just for wedding photos, but for anniversary shoots, family photos, personal portraits, and more. I am familiar with multiple studio options in Utah, and am happy to help source locations for shoots worldwide!

I love spending time during formal wedding shoots to get detail shots like these of Emmy’s pearl earrings. As I mentioned in this blog post about prepping for your bridal shoot, there is not always time for this sorts of photos on your actual wedding day. So plan with your photographer to capture them during a bridal or photoshoot to remember even the tiniest moments of your wedding.
