We yearn to learn about each of our couples and adore sharing their photos and stories on our blog! Grab a soft blanket and some cocoa. Maybe a snack too. You might be here for a while!

Warmth. Joy. Love. Hello, love stories!

We spend a lot of our lives here in Arizona. It only makes sense: we live here! That makes the chance to get out of state all the more special. Changes in scenery help refresh the mind and make the memories you create even more precious. Look at Ashley and Trevor, for example. Their wedding […]

With the number of wedding venues out there, it might be easy to forget that there’s one classic place to get hitched: church. That’s exactly where Nikki and Nate opted to tie the knot, and it made for some gorgeous photos. Their wedding at Blessed Sacrament Roman Catholic Church in Scottsdale was spectacular! Nate got […]

We’ve said before that one of our favorite things about photography is getting to see our clients grow, from children becoming teens to families adding new members and even to couples tying the knot. Sometimes, we’re lucky enough to work with people we went to school with, like in the case of today’s couple: Jennifer […]

You know the saying about how dogs are man’s best friend? We think it’s pretty true. Dogs are full of love and loyalty. Watching them explore new places and experience new things is special (it’s funny how that overlaps with our kids, too, isn’t it?). Their Papago Park engagement shoot in Phoenix/Tempe wasn’t the first […]

Though the Phoenix area is known for its heat, there are times when our weather can truly be unpredictable. That’s what had Kaila and Nick worried the day before their wedding: the sky was dark and dreary, threatening to soak everything. They woke up to a wedding miracle, though: the rain had pulled the temps […]

December’s upon us, bringing with it plenty of cold weather. With Nikki and Nate, though? They were on fire during their engagement shoot, sharing plenty of sweet kisses and snug embraces that warmed us up just looking at them! Who needs herbal tea or hot cocoa when you’re with such a cute, loving couple? Wandering […]

Some people feel the weather start to change and want to cling on to the last pieces of summer, wearing shorts and flip-flops for as long as they can manage. (Trust us, you can get away with that for a long time here in Arizona!) Others celebrate winter coming, eager to curl up with hot […]

Living in the desert, we don’t get the same autumn as everyone else. Even cool weather is a treat. That’s part of why we love fall weddings! It’s nice outside, the scent of fireplaces fills the air, and the sunsets are to die for. They can’t hold a fall-scented candle, though, to the beautiful love […]

One thing we try to do as wedding photographers is meet our couples a few times so we can get to know them. The world can be ridiculously busy, though, so that’s not always possible–take Chelsea and Kevin, for example! We didn’t have the chance to even see them via FaceTime, but when we finally […]

We don’t know about you, but we’ve gotten the “oh no! He’s cute!” vibes around a million times. Plenty of people are attractive, after all. Sometimes, like for Kristin and Brad, you get ridiculously lucky and that cute person turns out to be The One! When we had the chance to do their photoshoot at […]
