Jessie Funk . Dance In The Rain album cover shoot

dustinizatt — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 05:14:00 +0000

So a couple months back I shot some head shots for my good musician friend Jessie Funk for her upcoming CD “Dance In The Rain”. I was so honored that Jessie asked me to do the pictures for her new album. Even though I am primarily a Utah Wedding Photographer, I enjoy doing other types of photography for a change, so I immediately jumped on this opportunity. I was so excited when I went to my local Deseret Book only a few months after we shot and saw the new album with my work on it. Special thanks to my good friend Stephanie of Stephanie Patterson Photography who came along to help out with the session. You guys totally missed the behind the scenes footage of the session which consisted of me trying to scale a fence only to biff it on the other side haha, classic big D move. You can pick up Jessie’s album off of her website, , or at any local LDS book store such as Deseret Book or Seagull Book and Tape.

Hayley and Asher Wedding . LDS Utah Temple Wedding Photographer

Guess who’s back, back again, guess who’s back, tell a friend…. I apologize about the long silence on this humble little blog. Hayley and Asher tied the knot this summer at the Salt Lake City Utah Mormon LDS Temple and none other than yours truly was chosen to be the designated Wedding Photographer. My dear buddy and intern Stephanie of Stephanie Patterson Photography was kind enough to assist and second shoot with me. After shooting some of your standard temple shots, we headed to the Joseph Smith Memorial Building for their luncheon. After a couple of scheduled toasts and very beautiful speeches the room fell silent as Brad’s sister began sobbing into the microphone as she struggled to express her love towards her big brother and his new found love. Not a dry eye was in the room. Later that night, we drove to Brad’s parents’ home in Park City for the reception. They had the most delicious cupcakes ever, I ate so many that I contracted a sugar coma and don’t really remember what else happened at the reception, so with that, I will say scroll down to view some of my favorites from their wedding

Best song and best band ever. I know I share a lot of snow patrol but this song is even more amazing live. So go grab your lovers, crank up the volume, snuggle up close, and push play. *Disclaimer* I take no responsibility for the conception of any babies as a result of listening to this music video. Consider yourself warned about the sexiness of the song.

Breaking it down old school this week This song was the bomb back in the day and brings back so many fond memories of jr high and MTV when they actually played music videos. The quality sucks so I apologize I’m at the mercy of youtube here.

Nikita and Josh Wedding . Portland Oregon Wedding Photography Beckenridge Vineyard

I shot this wedding in Oregon together with my good photographer buddy Stephanie of Stephanie Patterson Photography, It was pretty, see the video below for documented proof. I covertly shot video clips without Nikita and Josh knowing about it, I am sneaky sneaky, so they had no idea about this video. It was held at Beckenridge Vineyard in Dallas Oregon. Can you say pretty? I bet you can. If you made it this far in the blog post then you are a very patient person and you will now be rewarded with a cool video, check it out

Karly Head Shots . Utah Head Shots Photographer

dustinizatt — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 16:07:03 +0000

Many of you will remember my BFF Karly of Karly Kim Photography from an anniversary session I did of her and her husband Carlos last month. Well Karly was in need of some headshots for her wedding photography website, so I was the Utah photographer that she chose to do them. We shot at Memory Grove and the Utah State Capitol, but we could’ve shot in front of some dumpsters and Karly still would’ve looked amazing. Karly has to be one of the funniest people I know and every time we hang out it’s nothing but buenos tiempos. She has an amazing sense of humor and an amazing knowledge of fashion. Please take a moment to scroll down and behold some of my personal favorites from the session….

Maci and Curtis Groomals . Utah Wedding Photographer

dustinizatt — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 17:26:16 +0000

I shot a groomal session for Maci and Curtis last month in the Utah State Capitol. It was so fun and these guys are so good looking together. As many of you know I am a wedding photographer in Utah, but what you may not know is that once upon a time I wanted to be a teacher. I don’t know what that random trivial fact had to do with this post but I thought I would just throw that out there. After shooting at the Utah State Capitol we headed down to finish the session in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. I’d now like to share some of my favorites from the session with you below….

Carly and Tanner will be getting married in July at the Red Butte Gardens in Salt Lake City, Utah. I can’t wait to do their wedding photography. I really enjoy being their wedding photographer because every time we shoot together you can just feel the love between them It shows in the pictures too just how much these guys were meant to be together. I loved the yellow tie that Tanner was sporting. We shot the groomals at Red Butte Gardens and it was absolutely gorgeous there. Below are some of my favorites from the session
