Okay, so waking up at 3 AM may not be for me, but this was absolutely worth it. I drove up Mt. Lemmon before the sun. The city lights were still the only thing you could see over the edge of the mountain; it was daunting. Once the sun started peaking over the horizon I […]
One of my favorite sessions from 2021! I’m only slacking a little bit on posting this since it was almost a year ago now that I traveled to Utah! Posting this blog is making me want to go back ASAPPPP. Let’s be real though, I am constantly dreaming about going back to Provo. I am […]

Karli and Joey’s Gilbert, Arizona wedding was absolutely beautiful. It took place at a venue that I frequently shoot at and has become near to my heart: The Cottage Wedding Venue on Gilbert and Warner. These two lovebirds have such a sweet story.

Then, she sent me her pinterest vision board of the shoot and I about fell over. She freaking wanted […]
Katie + Tanner’s wedding was originally planned for 2020, but was thwarted by pandemic, like many other weddings that were planned for that year. They didn’t let that stop them from becoming Mr. & Mrs. though! They still tied the knot, just not surrounded by their friends and family, like the original plan was. As […]
Mahalia is a long time friend who I knew had the warmest and most loving soul. She made our experience so unique, my favorite thing about her is how committed she is to finding the perfect spot for pics. She would go and hike through the “forest” location we chose and come back to us and tell us what kind of scenery she found. She’s committed to her work and I know she does this as her passion! I am forever thankful for this first photography session, and for the care she put into our pics! Not to mention how quickly she edited the pictures and sent over such a huge variety filled gallery!! She’s amazing, she’s a small business, and she’s such a hard worker!! Thanks so much Mahalia !!! -Patricia + Andrew
