Ellise + Hunter’s Engagement Session
🌼 Playful Poppy Field Engagements in Mantua, Utah | Ellise + Hunter
There’s something extra magical about photographing couples who are best friends first — the kind that can turn a field of poppies into their own personal playground. That was 1000% the vibe with Ellise + Hunter during their engagement session in the stunning poppy fields of Mantua, Utah. From wide open hills to soft mountain light, this session felt like a scene from a love story I never wanted to stop capturing.
Why Mantua Is a Dreamy Spot for Utah Engagement Photos
If you’re looking for engagement photos that feel effortlessly romantic and have that cinematic Utah scenery, Mantua delivers every single time. This spot gave us:
Rolling green hills
blooming poppy fields
soft, golden-hour mountain views
Basically a photographer’s dream… and Ellise + Hunter made it even better.
💛 Their Love Story
Ellise and Hunter have been together for just over a year, but the way they look at each other? You’d think they’ve known each other for a lifetime. He proposed on one of her all-time favorite hikes (🥹💍 can we talk about dream proposals?!) and from the start of their session, they brought nothing but sweetness and playfulness.
👗 Their Outfits: Classic + Classy
I loved how their outfits added such a soft, elegant touch to the backdrop. Ellise wore wide-leg denim trousers with the cutest bow detail and a delicate lace cream top — perfectly romantic. Hunter matched the tone with a short-sleeve cream button-up and neutral khakis. Dreamy, simple, timeless.

🎯 Favorite Moments From the Session
At one point, they started playing tag (yes, tag 😂) and Ellise forgot who was “it” and ran straight into Hunter. We all laughed so hard.
They had the cutest tickle fight in the middle of the poppies — full of genuine giggles and that real love energy I live for.
Hunter picked a single perfect sunflower and handed it to her mid-laugh. I MELTED.
These moments weren’t posed. They were just them. And that’s always my goal — to help couples feel comfortable, connected, and like they can be fully themselves.
