Live your story, and we will tell it through photos...

For Photographers

Kristin & Nathaniel are so sweet and fun to be around! We did their engagement photos not too long before their wedding in Scottsdale, up in the hills with the desert in its full glory. One of the best things about living in Arizona is the weather in the winter. It’s really such a great […]

When Jordan’s dad offered for her to join him at a Nascar race in Dover, Delaware, little did she know that the simplest ‘sure!’ would lead to her meeting the love of her life! After meeting Jeffrey at the race and talking the night away, these two made arrangements to stay in touch. With him […]

It was just any other May morning when Carson and Lexi took their dog hiking, little did she know it would be the best day she never saw coming but had dreamed of since she fell in love while the two attended the University of Arizona. Wearing her exercise clothes and sunglasses, she had no […]

After hearing how Faisal proposed to Amela, I knew this man loved her more than words could even express. Their love story is one of patience, creativity, generosity and overwhelming love, I think my jaw dropped by the end of hearing it. Faisal started planning his proposal to Amela a year after they met, two […]

Sheila and Alex were set up from the start. I mean literally! Their mutual friend, Ari, had been wanting the two to date each other for a long time. Ari invited both Sheila and Alex over “to just catch up” – without telling the other person. Both Sheila and Alex were surprised to meet each […]

Tara and Nick grew up in the same hometown and worked at the same restaurant, but didn’t meet each other until the last week before college started. When they talked for the first time, the couple realized that they would be living in the same apartment complex for school. Nick offered to help Tara move-in, […]

Julia and Matt originally met each other back in high school, when they were both on the same cross-country team. But it would be several years before the couple would reconnect at a concert at the Mesa Amphitheater. That’s when they began dating and have stayed together ever since, even when Matt accepted a position […]

I was so excited to capture Journey and Kris’ engagement session at Papago Park. The sun was perfect that day, reflecting off the water and through the reeds in the pond. It was without a doubt the best backdrop to photograph a couple so in love! Journey was giddy, skipping along from place to place, […]

Believe me, Mallory and Brian’s engagement session will forever stand out in my mind. I was in the zone. I had them posed and was photographing away. Things were going wonderfully until I heard a hiss… a slight hiss, and within a split second, it hits me. Water. Everywhere!!! After being threatened and harassed by golf course sprinklers […]

Holy color! When Stephanie and Steven said they were grabbing a drink at The Saguaro in Scottsdale, I jumped at the opportunity to start off our session in a vibrantly colored and fun location! His tie, her dress…it all went so perfectly with the inside and the outside scenery of The Saguaro, I couldn’t stop […]
