Planning the Perfect Jackson Engagement Session

When Shelby and Tyrel hired me as their wedding photographer for their local Idaho wedding, they knew they wanted something special before their Rexburg LDS temple ceremony. A Jackson engagement session in the Tetons was the perfect choice! After discussing various locations, Shelby decided on String Lake for its breathtaking mountain backdrop and serene beauty.

Clear Communication Creates Beautiful Results

Shelby came prepared with a specific vision. She needed a full-length photo with both of them looking at the camera and smiling, ideal for their wedding announcement. Pro-tip: While I love creative freedom during sessions, knowing your must-have shots beforehand ensures we capture exactly what you need. This kind of communication makes all the difference in delivering photos that exceed expectations.

Styling Their Teton Mountain Engagement Photos

The couple chose two distinct looks for their session. Their first outfit was elegant and timeless—Shelby wore a flowing cream dress with delicate pink florals, while Tyrel complemented her perfectly in tan pants and a burgundy polo. For their casual looks, they changed into jeans with cozy layers: her fall sweater and his plaid button-up created that relaxed mountain vibe. Shelby’s custom “Mrs. Spencer” sweatshirt with their initials and wedding date embroidered in pink added a sweet personal touch we absolutely had to capture!

From Engagements to Wedding Day

Following Shelby through her entire wedding journey – from this stunning Jackson engagement session to bridal photos in the Tetons and finally her Rexburg wedding and reception – was an incredible experience. Destination wedding photography doesn’t often allow me this continuity, making it such a treat to be part of every chapter of their story.
