Tatiana and Luis’ downtown Phoenix engagement session


No two downtown Phoenix engagement sessions are ever the same with so many different places to explore. I love to search out color and texture as backdrops for my photographs. Tatiana and Luis are such a sweet and easy going couple. They both have wonderful smiles that light up the pictures.

Laura, you are amazing. There are no words that can describe how I feel about these photos. We has so much fun.

Ashley and Tyler’s Arizona wedding


Congratulations to Ashley and Tyler who had a beautiful wedding ceremony at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix. I really liked Ashley’s baby blue Converse and orange and blue color scheme. Ashley and Tyler then continued their celebration at McCormick Ranch Golf Club in Scottsdale. The locations allowed the guests to enjoy both the classic desert landscape at the botanical garden and the cool water setting of McCormick Ranch.

Thank you to the professional and creative team from Thee Wedding Warehouse who make each individual wedding both elegant and seamless.

Kaveh and Marisse’s Scottsdale engagement session- Scottsdale, Arizona

Marisse and Kaveh met up with me for a colorful engagement shoot in Scottsdale while they were in town on a short trip from the East Coast. We walked around Scottsdale stopping in interesting little nooks and alleyways for the photo shoot. I love Marisse’s pink dress that pops in all the pictures. After such a fun engagement session I can’t wait for their wedding this summer!

Siobhan and Dustin’s Desert Botanical Garden wedding- Phoenix, Arizona

The one word to best describe Siobhan and Dustin’s wedding is gorgeous. The Palo Verde trees were in full bloom, each bridesmaid wore their own unique pink dress, tons of super cute kids running around, a stunning bride and groom and a crowd that came to dance made the day simply perfect.

Kristin and Heath’s The Farm at South Mountain wedding- Phoenix, Arizona


The Farm at South Mountain is one of my favorite places in Phoenix (best breakfast ever at the Morning Glory CafĂ©) so I was thrilled when Kristin and Heath asked me to photograph their wedding ceremony at the farm. I love all the big trees, ivy covered walls and flowers in bloom. It is hard to believe that the farm is so close to the rugged desert of South Mountain. Kristin and Heath did a fantastic job with the muted and subtle color palette for the bridesmaids’ dresses and flowers. I wish Kristin and Heath much love and happiness!
