Utah Baby Shower

BabiesLauren Wester4 Comments

If you need baby shower inspiration, keep scrolling. We're not just saying it, for real. Do it. We were honored to be apart of Lindsay of Harvest Moon Event's baby shower. Not only did Kasey of Harvest Moon Events plan the entire baby shower, but she hired us as a surprise gift for Lindsay.

Everything at this baby shower was cute enough for a baby and classy enough for a grown group of women. The adorableness of this shower almost ALMOST made us want to have a baby of our own. Yes, Kasey is THAT good at events. Don't worry though, after the twinkle lights and delicious pink punch left our memories, we regained our DINK status.

To brag a bit about Kasey, she is a young, beautiful woman entrepreneur in Park City, Utah. We felt included in the baby shower instead of the hidden photographer crouched in the corner wearing camouflage. Lindsay, the one that is pregnant in the pictures, she is equally as amazing and not to mention is a BEAST. Lindsay was still working and lifting heavy wedding coordinator things the day before her Park City baby shower. Who are these women? We feel a bit of superhero powers just from association.

Let's discuss beverages for a second. This punch champagne concoction was AMAZING, so much so, we tried to blend random juices and whipping cream from our fridge the next day to replicate it. Scouring through your fridge + being too lazy to go to the store= a weird not even close version of the punch in the pictures. So don't be lazy like us, GO TO THE STORE, and maybe ask Kasey for the recipe because our recipe will create a gross punch you won't want to serve to anyone.

Soak in the pink punch, mini burgers, tender meat, pallet table and ridiculously adorable tipi-pillow-covered-tree nest. Now that you've had your baby shower inspiration, you can continue your weekend smiling and thinking of how Monday is super far away from today.

Friends Getting Married

EngagedLauren Wester1 Comment

We love when our friends get engaged. Not only because we can capture their smiling looks of new love, but because they found their person. We know both of these girls from bible study, a bible study involving wine and the bible, yes this does exist. We was admiring their invitations, with Quirky Shutter photos of course, and had to inform the world of their cuteness.

Haley is a perky, outgoing, beautiful person. The first time we met she said, "hey, we should hang out." Haley has this perma-glow about her and makes you feel like life is beautiful no matter what happens. We can sometimes be a worrier so it's good to have Haley as a friend. Haley and Jordan match perfectly together and their friends seemed to think so too. The two met on a blind group date, set up by mutual friends. Haley immediately saw something special in Jordan and knew he was the one that very weekend when they went skiing. Months later, they got engaged at Alta to keep with the skiing theme. 

Haley and Jordan were troopers on their engagement shoot. They carried a red canoe around a lake for the most romantic Notebook-ish photoshoot. Asking them to kiss was way too easy. Sometimes couples are a bit timid constantly kissing while having their photo taken, but Haley and Jordan were too in love to notice us and our giant camera.

Kacee is a caring, genuine person who is a delight to be around. You know those people who make you feel completely comfortable the instant you meet them? That's Kacee. She can't hide how she is feeling because her face often shows it all, and we love that. Kacee and Lucas met at house church and they soon became more than friends. Lucas then proposed at the Spiral Jetty at the Great Salt Lake. We hadn't even heard about the Spiral Jetty until their engagement, and we're now excited to add to our bucket list of Utah places. 

Their engagement shoot was at Solitude right after the lifts closed. We were able to capture some ski lift photos and find some hidden spots we may or may not have been allowed to roam. Our favorite part of the day was asking Kacee to give me her, "night of the wedding bedroom eyes," and having her giggle immediately after. 

We wish nothing but the best for our two engaged friends. We know each of them will look gorgeous on their wedding days and celebrate the occasion in style.
