Shelina and Curtis’ Troon North Golf Club wedding- Scottsdale, Arizona

Curtis makes his grand entrance with his friends and family by his side.

Shelina and Curtis started their celebration with a pre-wedding sangeet party Friday night. It was a fun and colorful event with lots of delicious food and dancing. The highlight was when all of Shelina and Curtis’ friends got up and surprised the couple with a choreographed dance routine.

On Saturday Shelina and Curtis were married at Troon North Golf Club in Scottsdale. It was a perfect Arizona day without a cloud in the sky. I loved green color palette that was everywhere from the flowers to the bridesmaids heels. Shelina was stunning with just the right amount of bling. I wish Shelina and Curtis much love and happiness.

Dana and Steve’s Scottsdale engagement session

I had too much fun photographing Dana and Steve’s engagement pictures. We started by chasing the fog in the morning and ended at the LOVE sculpture in Scottsdale. I really have to remember to tell couples to bring comfortable shoes, in addition to fabulous heels, because sometimes we end up off the beaten path. I can’t wait for their wedding in the spring!

Holly and Brett’s Scottsdale engagement shoot

I met Brett and Holly for their engagement shoot in Old Town Scottsdale. The Civic Center is a fantastic spot for photos with lots of colorful backgrounds and you are pretty much guaranteed to have a sea of emerald green grass. My favorite shot is the first one on the grassy hill but I also love how Holly’s red hair pops against the gray wall in the second picture. I am looking forward to their wedding in just a couple months!
