Derek and Ale’s Mesa Falls Bridal Session was the prettiest, sunniest, winter session! Despite there being so much snow, it was 40 degrees and bright, clear skies. It was literally the most perfect day. When I first saw Ale pull into the parking lot at Mesa Falls, she was wearing the most adorable pair of shoes. As much as I hated to, I told her that she might to change into boots. She said, “No a problem!” and pulled out the cutest boots ever! She was ready to stay warm while still looking chic.

We set up the sweetest First Look, and as Ale walked towards Derek she could barely contain her excitement. She was giggly and gushing over how handsome he was. Their first look was perfect and full of so much joy. I don’t think you could leave these two without feeling happy and inspired by the way they just fully love each other.  I also loved Ale’s willingness to do what it takes to get the shot! When I asked her if she wanted to hike up to the spot where there would be a little bit of a view and lookout, she said, “Now or never!” They were more than happy to go up and take a few pictures as best as we could with all of the snow piled up.

After getting beautiful, snowy photos in the mountains, we headed to the Rexburg LDS Temple for a few more portraits. When we got there, the temperature dropped 10 degrees and the wind picked up quickly. We were even more frozen at the temple than we had been at Mesa Falls! Cold or not, there was no denying that the lighting was absolutely amazing and the best way to end their bridals!
