High School Sweethearts Finally Married

Alex and Sarah fell in love in high school and are finally married at the Anthem Country Club. I want to mention how outstanding the customer service was at Anthem. The staff went above and beyond for Alex and Sarah. Example: Sarah can not wear heals on the golf course so Julie (staff member) would help Sarah wipe the grass off her feet after we were done taking pictures on the course and would help her put her heals back on.

Alex, football player, Sarah cheerleader, dated, went to prom, fell in love. The American love story come to life. The emotion on Sarah's face Say's it all.

O.K. I might over exaggerate a bit, but I put my life on the line for this next picture. Right now here in Arizona the weather is starting to warm up, you know what that means? Rattlesnakes come out of hibernation. I have seen many around my house and know where and where not to go during this time. Well notice the lovely wild desert surrounding the lake? Rattlesnake heaven. I had to walk in all that wild brush to get to the other side of the lake to take this picture. No I did not see a snake nor did I hear one, but I know they are out there. Yes, I have a fear of snakes. Needless to say I will do anything for that perfect shot for my couple.
Just so happens that Alex's parents are ballroom dancers! They taught Alex and Sarah how to dance beautifully for their first dance. This couple is so romantic, not to mention beautiful. This wedding was a great experience. Thank you Alex and Sarah for allowing me to photograph your wedding!

Ahh Stella

Image
When you get an email from the sister of a past pride asking if you could take pictures of her 6 month old baby girl, you say sure! When she ask you if you can meet at her sister-in-laws house to take the picture because she has a "fun house" you reply yes. Then you show up and see this beautiful baby girl and this incredibly decorated shabby chic house, you burst with excitement inside.. That is just what happened. Elaine emailed me to see if I could take pictures of Stella and asked if we could meet at her sister-in-laws house. Well, you can see for yourself that Stella is beautiful and the house was a photographer's dream. Elaine had all her own idea's for Miss Stella. We had so much fun and Stella was a trooper to say the least. I loved how Stella would smile at her mommy over and over again. She is truly a happy baby. This shoot inspired me to convert some of my office into a studio. I called my friend Nancy after the shoot and was blabbing away on how much fun

~George and Catherine~

Image
I met Catherine just about a month before her wedding and truly liked her instantly. When we met she came alone and was so calm about her wedding and what she was looking for. I was pleased she booked me and looked forward to working with her and meeting George. When I got to Catherine's house she was again very calm and taking her time getting ready. That is when I met George for the first time, he to was very calm taking his time getting ready. The wedding was very simple, two people in love getting married. Once the I do's were said the rest of the afternoon looked like the next few images. Giddy, smile's, more smiles of joy. I loved watching them and would get caught up in the moment. Had to remind myself to take pictures:-) Catherine looked so beautiful, very classy and George so handsome, movie star couple status I would say. Again, more smiles, giggles and glances. It was so special to watch, I mean to take pictures of.;-) To look over the pictures one would not noti
