Winter TIme at the Great Salt Lake

Ashley & Mark are getting married in March and they chose to do their engagements out at the Great Salt Lake. I advised them it would probably be a little chilly but they were willing to sacrifice for their photos. This is a tough couple and their sacrifice definitely paid off in getting great photos.
The Great Salt Lake is one of my favorite places to shoot anytime of the year because it is so wide open and has a lot of personality. Getting there can be kind of rough as we found out driving out on a snow packed dirt road. There is also a railroad close by, but watch out, as we found out it is an active railway and you’ll get a speeding locomotive come by now and then!

There was some fresh fallen snow, and I forgot to mention to Ashley she should wear some shoes that would keep her feet warm. Fortunately she has a very chivalrous fiance and he gave her his socks to keep her feet from freezing. Unfortunately I think his feet did freeze.
Despite the cold conditions, with the right lighting and some very warm smiles this happy couple look very happy and in love. They did great and it just proves my saying that they who sacrifice most for the picture end up with the best photos!
