This stunning photo captured the joy and excitement of our wedding day perfectly! Our photographer was amazing - they made us feel comfortable and at ease, and were able to capture all of the special moments throughout the day. We especially love this photo of us twirling and jumping with Earl's Lodge in the background. The bride's white dress with delicate lace details looks absolutely gorgeous, and the groom's blue 3-piece suit and dark brown leather shoes complement the setting perfectly. We couldn't be happier with our photos - thank you so much

We LOVED working with Brian. He made our wedding day special and captured the day beautifully. He was very easy to work with and got our pictures back so fast. Would highly recommend him and hope to work with him again in the future.

I don't even know what to say, I haven't stopped looking at the pictures for the last 4 hours!  THANK YOU so much!  We are extremely grateful for what you do.  They are all perfect.  Everyone just keeps saying how amazing our pictures are and now we have hundreds more to show them!  I can't wait.  Thank you for capturing all these special moments!  I'm pretty sure I just favored 95% of them so we will make another favorite list for the album.  I'm speechless. 

A young couple stands on Ensign Peak in Salt Lake City, with the cityscape blurred out in the background. The man, tall and blond, is on one knee, holding out a ring box to his girlfriend, a mid-twenties woman with brown hair, who clasps her hands together over her mouth in excitement. She wears a red dress with blue floral print and a gold bracelet. The photographer, Brian Smyer, captured the special moment with his keen eye for detail and expertise in portrait photography.

Brian shot my fiancé and I's proposal photos earlier this month. I came to him with an idea to do the shoot at ensign peak because I felt it would be symbolic for our upcoming move to SLC. He went above and beyond to help me surprise my fiancé. He helped with the planning and troubleshooting of a difficult surprise. He even CLIMBED ensign peak and skyped me a month beforehand to help me get an idea of what we were up against because I wasn't able to see the peak myself before that night. During the shoot he was constantly looking for new shots and angles. Brian made our night that much better with his enthusiasm and professionalism. The pictures are amazing. Obviously, I highly recommend Brian and might just fly him out to the land of Lincoln to do my wedding if he'd be willing.
