New Office - NP FILMS


This is the new location of Nathan Pickett Films. Conveniently placed right off of 5th south in Bountiful at 485 S 100 E. This is a much needed change as many of you were making the drive from South Salt Lake County (and further) all the way up to my home office in Layton to meet with me - thank you! Others who were coming from up North to meet with me will find that it is a nice centralized location between the two ends of the valley.

The move has been a long time in the making and has proven to be quite the task. Putting together the perfect mix of work and style all while feverishly working to finish the summer backlog.

Thanks to everyone who helped put the place together (decorating is not my forte) and a very special thanks to Lindsay Jane Photography for inviting me to office out of the same building. Lindsay is a good friend and a GREAT photographer! Consistency is her best asset and that's what you can expect from her and her studio of trained professionals - consistently great pictures. I look forward to working just footsteps away!

Once we get the finishing touches up we will be posting more pictures!

The after years...


Its hard to imagine now, but what will be your biggest day after the wedding day is over? Can you possibly top that grand celbration?

As you can imagine, for me that day was when my sons were born. At whatever time you both decide it to be right for you and your new honey - your future will hopefully include kids.

As some of you know my future came almost 5 years after being married when my life was blessed with my twin boys! My little Sam and Eli - you'll quickly see how truly adorable they are and why snuggling them is a must! This picture was snapped by my friend from Dallas, Texas, Stephanie, with "Auburn Soul Photography". She did a great job and I wanted to share with all of you a quick glimpse of what great fun lies in store - even when they refuse to sleep all night long. Now back to the wedding day planning! :)

Step it up guys: Luncheon

For your wedding, will you be having a luncheon or dinner program? If the answer is yes - you and your fiance may have possibly talked and decided that no one will be asked to speak at your program. Or you may have thought that it will just be a causal meal, with only but a few words spoken by a small number of close family members or your best friends.

In either case - if you are having a luncheon or dinner program - it is most likely that you have not thought about what is going to happen at all. And that's okay, for everyone except for the groom.

While your families may have the rest of the program covered, the groom will - 9 out of 10 times - be placed in a situation where he will be asked to say some words to those in attendance. Be prepared gentlemen, to make it count - and in addition to whatever you decide that you would like to say - make sure that they hear from you the feelings you have regarding your beautiful new wife and best friend. And also make sure that we are there to film it :) Like we were when Orrin spoke to his new sweet wife - see the video below.

The Park: Kelsie + Orrin


Spontaneous fun - that is Kelsie and Orrin. I loved the dog that they brought along, my favorite is when dogs make that inquisitive tilting head look. And the longboards were quite unique also. By the end football was even cute - okay maybe not so much, but it was still a lot of fun. Thanks guys - can't wait till the wedding!

Salt Lake Temple: Jon + Annie


It may sound somewhat odd coming from a video perspective to say that music chosen for a video is just as an important as the video itself. But, it is absolutely true - Imagine your favorite movie, think of your favorite part, then imagine that scene without a soundtrack. As you think about it you may realize that the music compliments and magnifies the emotion and that it also brings to life the thoughts and feelings that are often unspoken. Annie and Jon choose an amazing song and it was my pleasure to be a part of their day - together with their wonderful photographer Rebecca Westover.
