Last year, I photographed a hilarious young senior from Scottsdale Christian Academy. He was funny, charming and just so handsome. Towards the end of our shoot, he mentioned his brother was proposing to his girlfriend in Hawaii soon. I almost drooled at the thought of the proposal under tall palm trees with the smell of plumerias floating around. Soon after, I received the sweetest e-mail from the newly minted fiance Steven. I knew right away Steven was SO kind and that his fiance Chandis would be just as sweet as he is. Steven and... View Full Post

his engagement shoot has been a work in progress... and I mean literally, a work in progress. These two have spent months and hours building a 10x18 map of the world to stand in front of for their engagement shoot. Well, the hard work sure paid off for this engagement session. WHAT A MAP! I cannot say enough good things about these two. They are some of the nicest, most adorable people we have worked with. They are such genuine people and we feel so lucky to be working with them on their wedding day next spring. To see a slideshow of the... View Full Post

I on the other hand, had the opportunity to photograph a stunning PAPER themed wedding and three FAB engagement sessions in southern California. Whether you were relaxing by the fire with a hot mug of coco, or working hard, I hope everyone had a beautiful filled week and I hope you counted your blessings. We all have a lot to be thankful for! I cannot wait to blog Anya + Brandon's paper themed wedding. These two incredibly beautiful people were... View Full Post

first met with Anya at Starbucks to talk about wedding photography. Before we even had a chance to talk about wedding photography, we had sipped our coffees and talked about Anya's amazing journey and passion for law. Anya is probably one of the sweetest most beautiful girls inside and out I have ever met. She's inspiring, beautiful and SMART. Anya just passed the bar exam after taking it for the FIRST time and is also planning a wedding at the same time. This girl is one of the coolest girls I've ever met. She has so many ideas and I cannot... View Full Post

arlier this year, I got a call from one of the sweetest southern girls EVER. She told me about how her and her newly engaged fiance met in college and I knew from the start of our conversation, I wanted to work with this sweet girl. After we got to know each other over the phone, Erin and Hunter decided to fly to Phoenix for their engagement shoot. We walked around downtown Phoenix to find some textured walls and ended the session in the beautiful Arizona desert. Just in time for sunset, we walked around with our boots on and made the best of... View Full Post

ast week we escaped the heat of Phoenix and enjoyed a few days in beautiful Seattle for Sonah and Brad's engagement session. Sonah and Brad mentioned they wanted something rural and rustic that was outside the city. They suggested Snohomish and I couldn't have been more excited to have shot in such a unique town. Before we headed to Snohomish, I couldn't resist photographing in Seattle's rich green forests. I was in love! We feel so grateful to be working with such an amazing couple and cannot wait for their wedding this October. Sonah... View Full Post
