Elegant Storytelling Photojournalism
The Hotel Valley Ho with its classic mid-century modern design was the backdrop for Lisa and Tim’s engagement session ahead of their wedding next fall. It was fun to get to know Lisa and Tim’s goofy side as we explored the hotel grounds. After ending our shoot on the hotel’s rooftop I am even more excited about their wedding reception which will be up there with views of Camelback Mountain and the surrounding valley below.
My sincere congratulations to this picture perfect couple, Lauren and Darren. Lauren and Darren started the day out at the ultra hip and colorful Hotel Valley Ho, where we did their first look and bridal party pictures, before heading over to Foothills Golf Club for the wedding. It is simply not possible for Lauren to have looked more elegant and illuminated. I loved how the bridesmaids toasts in the dressing room before the ceremony were as emotional and heartfelt as the “official” toasts during the reception. I am so happy for this lovely couple!
