Poppy & Hive editorial

Family, wedding and proposal photographers in Salt Lake City since 2003

Beautiful photos of a day you actually enjoyed.

Family sessions with time to breathe and kids who actually laugh. Weddings where we see the small problems coming. Proposals we plan with you, down to the exact spot. After twenty years behind the camera, the light and composition are second nature, so our attention stays on you.

What are we celebrating?

Every session starts from the same idea: the more relaxed you are, the better your photos. Choose yours to see the work and how it comes together.

Chris and Erinn of Poppy & Hive

You can't fake a real smile.

So we never ask you to. We're Chris and Erinn, and for more than twenty years we've photographed families, weddings and proposals with one rule: take the stress off our clients, and the real moments take care of themselves.

That's why we don't do rushed mini sessions, why we plan proposals with you step by step, and why we arrive at weddings already knowing where the day could go sideways. Our experience handles the light, the timing and the details, so you can just be there.

No rushed mini sessions

Unhurried family sessions with room for a snack break and a shy toddler.

We see it coming

Twenty years of weddings means small problems get solved before you notice.

Planned down to the spot

Proposal help from the first idea to the exact place to kneel.
