Justin and Amanda Engagement Session

Amanda and Justin sittin in a tree....K.I.S.S.I.N.G

What a fun session this was with Amanda and Justin.  They are to be wed in Sedona next month and we are super excited to be able to photograph it for them. This is not our first time meeting them.  Amanda has been a bridesmaid in two other weddings we have photographed. 

So ladies and gentlemen.  If you want a reference, this is one.  They have seen our work up close and personal.

But if you dont think these images are stunning, you need to get some glasses.  Look at how amazing they look.

All right so you know we have to stop and insert humor......Look at the love shown in the following images when they were about to fall off the mountain.  All I can say is "Go Teamwork"

Ok, so all joking aside.  I can see this same image being taken when they are 80 and still have the same romance.  Looking into the distance, pondering on what paths and journeys  their new lives will take them.

Happy Holidays and a Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all!!

We wish you and your family a very happy holiday and lots of love and happiness.  Thank you to all of our couples past, present and future for allowing us to be a part of your day.  We wish all who read this a happy, loving and memorable holiday season.

From our loving LARGE family to yours.

Tom and Danielle married at Wild Horse Oasis

Tom and Danielle......What a great couple.  We were blessed this year with some amazing couples.  Tom and Dani was one of those special couples to say the least.  Sense of humor was a 10.  You could not be around this couple and not laugh your butt off.  We photographed their marriage at Wild Horse Oasis in October and what a beautiful day it was.  We had as much fun as the couple.

Dani was stunningly beautiful.  If you are looking for a venue that has a little bit of all scenic backgrounds......Wild Horse is the place.   You get a little bit rustic and old town Tucson and you get the Green, which many brides are looking for.

During the wedding party photo's we got some special visitors.  Living in the desert....for some of us this is normal....Havalina!!!  To the New Yorkers in the wedding party.........Yikes.  Not so normal and very scary.  We kept getting closer to get pictures, and they kept moving backwards in fear.  LOL

The ceremony site at Wild Horse is gorgeous.  Palms, grass and a  little creek.  Can't get more romantic than that.

I loved the Scottish Air Bags that led Tom (groom) into the ceremony.

I loved this idea for Table Name cards.  The leaf attached is actually embedded with wild flower seeds.  The backside of the card gives instructions to plant and watch them grow.

As the night fell upon us, we were blessed with the most amazing sunset.

As the night went on, I noticed that Tom made Dani laugh all night long.  He had this way of making the moment special and light hearted.  I am a firm believer that the shortest distance between two people is laughter.  This couple has that and therefore a life long of happiness will follow.

During the reception, Tom and a couple of his buddies gave us a little window show while we were outside...It was histarical.  Cracked us up.  Go Tom!!!

Congratulations Tom and Danielle.  We wish you a life time of happiness, laughter and love.  Thanks for allowing us to be a part of your wedding day.

Tony and Jessica wed at Skyline CC

Let me introduce to you Jessica and Tony.  One of our favorite couples.  Actually I shouldn't say that.  I am like a mom and love all our couples and love getting to know them all.  But these two were just so sweet and had such a colorful wedding party and just a fun lovin couple.  They both were so involved in the planning and wanted this to be  a fairy tale.  And well......they succeeded.

They were married at Skyline Country Club.  A venue that over looks the city skyline with amazing views and sunsets.  Romance doesnt get any better than that.

Jessica started out her day at Gadabout.  Here she is chillin out sippin on a Starbucks.

Isn't Jessica just a beauty and glowing.

Here are the boys.  Check out the little guy in the front. He made the day.  He loved getting his picture taken and hammed it up big time.  Look at the Groom in the bottom Left corner.  He is trying his hardest to keep a straight face.....but come on.  How cute is that little guy.  You couldnt help but chuckle.

The ceremony was beautiful, overlooking the city of Tucson.  Skyline has three levels.  As I was covering all the angles at ground level,   Jon decided to get coverage from all three levels.  Here he is on the 1st level.

This is the 2nd level.

And then the 3rd level.  He was sweatin it, but he did it. 

Love the detail of the floral balls hanging along the isle.  This is such a great touch.  For any DIY brides there are some easy instructions on line where you can make them yourself with tissue paper.  These little special touches is what completes the day.

On to the details.  Love the blue and brown colors.  LOOOOOOVE her blue sneakers for the reception.  And her feet thanked her.  Signing book, courtecy of Something Blue.

Isn't her cake just amazing.  The DJ had to announce to all the grandparents that this is how it was designed, and that is was not falling over.  Just the funniest thing ever.

Here is a shot of the reception area.  Look at the city lights in the windows.  OMG!!! What a great view for  guests.

Cocktail hour out on the patio following the ceremony.  Sunset and city lights - AH-MAZING.

Ahhhh father-daughter dance...my fav and they didn't disappoint.  Perfect.

Here is our beautiful bride drop kickin her brother.  LOL.  Best shot ever.

I dont even know how to express how much I love the next set of shots.  Jessica actually plays the piano.  Isn't this so romantic?

I leave you with Tony and Jessica taking a moment with the night skyline views.

Thank you ....thank you....thank you for allowing us to be a part of your Fairy Tale day.
