Kimiko + Brett's Sunrise Engagement Session in Moab | Utah Adventure Photographer

Adventure Engagement Session in Moab

We had so much fun with Kimiko and Brett in Moab! We’re photographing their elopement in Sedona later this year, and when we originally planned their engagement session we were going to do a location a few hours from Moab where we’d all camp because it is super remote, but we had to postpone due to COVID and none of us were stoked on the idea of camping in the Utah desert in the middle of July 😜 So we moved their session to Moab and picked out an epic spot off the beaten path to surprise them with! They brought their three dogs, so we decided to do sunrise to embrace the coolest temps of the day and it ended up being such a stunning sunrise and the clouds kept everything really cool, so prime!

We met up with them in a dark parking lot an hour before sunrise, pulled in, waved hello, and they followed us out to this spot! We pulled up, piled out, and made our way to the overlook and they were absolutely blown away by the views!! We walked around the area and had so much fun wandering around and watching the stunning sunrise. First the clouds changed colors, then the sun came out and we had the most stunning golden light! Then, when the sun would normally get high and harsh, it went behind some clouds again and we got amazing soft lighting for the rest of the shoot. It was perfect! At the end, we decided to take the adventurous route back to town down the canyon and Brett crushed it sending the Jeep trail in their pilot :) We absolutely loved getting to know these two (and their sweet pups!) and seriously can’t wait to hang out with them again. We’re so excited for their elopement in Sedona!
