Blacksmith Fork Canyon Couples Photoshoot- Wedding Photographer- Hyrum UT

Couples

A steep hike is always worth it- especially when the valley creates a haze. This romantic shoot was a dream- and Kambree & Colby pulled it all together. As a photographer who’s grown up near Blacksmith Fork Canyon, I know a lot of lesser known spots that make for gorgeous photos.

Some word of advice for having your photographer take you on a hike for photos and what to expect:

Bring a different pair of shoes- have your hiking shoes and a pair that you want your photos in! You don’t want to be hiking up a mountain in heels, or in your nice shoes in case they get dirty.
Know before how long and how hard the hike will be. This hike is only about 10 minutes up, but there are some steep spots. Since I knew this one wasn’t bad, the couple is fine to dress in their formal clothes. However, if you’re interested in doing a more intermediate, longer trail, I suggest bringing a change of clothes as well!
You can expect me to take a healthy amount of breaks up the hill. For pictures, and also because I need to catch my breath, hah.
Don’t forget water!

What I love about adding hiking to your photoshoot, is it not only becomes an adventure for you and your sweetheart, but you get to have a unique location that others aren’t willing to work for. Even though this spot is 10 minutes up, I have never seen another photographer up here, and never seen others post photos from this spot. If you’re looking for engagement, couple, bridal, or wedding photos in a unique location, hike for it.

Blacksmith Fork Canyon is a hidden gem in Cache Valley, Utah. There are plenty of spots to explore if you want an outdoorsy, mountain feel for your photography! And aren’t these photos so dreamlike?? Having a beautiful overlook for your photos takes them to the next level. It feels surreal.

If you’re interested in having your engagement or wedding photographer take you to someplace magical and full of mountain overlooks, I’ve done my exploration. There are options from 10 minute hikes to 2 hour hikes that can offer a range of majestic views and romantic, adventurous photos. Contact me to discuss your next adventure!
