Salt Lake City, Utah Wedding + Elopement Photographer

The 3 Best Wedding + Elopement Destinations In The Salt Lake City Area

  • A newlywed couple holding hands, walking on a desert landscape near a classic Mercedes-Benz convertible, with flowers placed beside it, during sunset with mountains in the background.

    Bonneville Salt Flats

    The Bonneville Salt Flats stretch endlessly across western Utah, creating a vast white (sometimes grey) landscape that feels almost otherworldly. The ground reflects the sky, blurring the line between earth + horizon. With nothing but open space in every direction, the setting feels quiet, minimal, + surreal. It’s a place that strips everything back + makes even the smallest moments feel powerful.

  • A couple in wedding attire on a beach, with the groom carrying the bride while holding a bouquet of flowers, under a cloudy sky.

    Pink Lake at Spiral Jetty

    Utah’s pink lake, part of the Great Salt Lake, gets its blush tones from salt-loving algae + bacteria that thrive in the highly saline water. Depending on the light + season, the lake shifts from soft pastel pinks to deeper rose hues. The contrast between the pink water, white salt crust, + wide-open sky feels surreal and striking. It’s a quiet, otherworldly landscape that looks almost dreamlike in photos.

  • A bride and groom standing on a grand marble staircase inside a historic capitol building with high vaulted glass ceiling and large mural painting.

    Utah State Capitol

    The Utah State Capitol sits on a hill overlooking Salt Lake City, with sweeping views of the city + the Wasatch Mountains beyond. Its grand white marble exterior + neoclassical design give it a timeless, stately presence. Inside, the building feels light and airy, with tall columns, ornate details, + expansive hallways. The setting blends history, architecture, + landscape in a way that feels both elegant + grounded.
