Downtown Salt Lake City Engagement Session: Taylor + Chad

Salt Lake City engagement

Hey guys, meet Taylor + Chad! These two cuties met on a blind date (love hearing a BD success story!) and decided on an intimate + simple setting for their engagement photos with Tyson French. Their sweet session started with some shots in their stylish apartment in downtown Salt Lake City. Then, the trio moved on to Jessica Peterson’s super rad photo studio where the blank canvas of a backdrop really allowed the focus to be on these two and their love for each other! Let’s hear a little more detail about how T + C met, shall we?

My dearest fiancé and I met on a blind date! I had no hope in blind dates because I had been on a few before and they didn’t turn out spectacularly. Chad was different. We went on a hike to a waterfall (which we never found) and we talked for hours. He left the next day to work in St. Thomas for the entire summer (which ripped my heart out) but we talked the whole summer and when he got back, the rest was history! We were inseparable…

Two years later he proposed to me at our favorite pizza restaurant. He seemed nervous and strange all throughout the dinner but I didn’t think much of it. As we left the restaurant we started walking down the bright streets of Salt Lake City and he turned me around, got down on his shaking knee, mumbled something romantic and sweet and asked me to be his wife. I will always remember that moment and I can’t wait to continue our adventure in life together.

Super big congrats you two! :)
