Sanctuary Engagement Shoot With TJ and Michelle

TJ and Michelle will be getting married in May of next year at the Sanctuary. When talking to them about their engagement pictures they said they would like to take them at the place where they will be getting married. What a great idea, the Sanctuary offers so many different ideas for photography. I can only wait for their wedding. Honestly saved some great locations for the actually wedding day.
I really enjoy this couple, very straight forward, they know what they want. TJ looks at Michelle with such love in his eyes, anything for her. Can I just say that I am so jealous of Michelle's hair, beautiful! OK I have to share this with you, the Sanctuary is a very NICE resort and spa. It was rather empty in the restaurant when we started, by the time we finished the restaurant was pretty full. Well we had just finished up and were walking through the restaurant to collect our stuff to leave when I trip on the stairs and of course could NOT let my camera hit the ground. Just a little embarrassing. All in all it was a great session with TJ and Michelle.:-)

Is it 5 or 15 Minutes of Fame?

Image
I want to say I am experiencing my 15 minutes of fame, since I had my 5 when I was 12. Stephanie help me out, what was the name of the talk show your mom took us to the tapping of in which I got to ask a question? This took place in 1979, we were in sixth grade. Teen Beat I think? I was selected to ask a question, in which now I can't remember if it was to Lief Garrett and I am thinking the host was Kristy McNichol, aggg... Anyway when the episode aired on TV I was to embarrassed to watch myself. Da I wish I would have!! On to my recent fame, I was asked to shoot the cover of the Arizona Bridal Source Guide this past spring for Kim Horn and it is out and about. This fame will last longer then 5 minutes since it will be available for the next 6 months. I am so very excited and am happy with how it turned out. It was a great and nerve racking experience! You can pick up a copy at several bridal shops around town and it will also be given out this weekend at the big bridal show at t...

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 ...

 My first wedding of 2014 was with Nicole and Chad at Encanto Park Clubhouse.  This wedding was so sweet with fabulous details.  I mean really fabulous details, from the location, to the bridesmaids attire and reception details.  If you follow my blog regularly you know I usually do not post to many detail shots, I always photograph them, I just do not post them.  For this post I am posting more then average because they were just so fun.  Thank you so much Nicole and Chad for allowing me to capture your sweet wedding.  It was such a great way to start 2014.
