Wow, it has been a very long time since I have blogged!  Does anyone even look at blogs anymore.  I had the privilege of doing a post wedding shoot with Lauren and Will at Horseshoe Bend this past December.  I love how all the images came out so much that I had to blog them.  Horseshoe Bend was one of the locations on my bucket list for a post wedding shoot.  A  huge thank you to Lauren and Will, the lovely newlyweds for agreeing to this adventurous location.  They were married this past November 21, 2020 so what a better way to spend your one month of marriage then driving 4 hours north to Horseshoe Bend to spend about two hours taking pictures then driving 4 hours back to Phoenix.  Was it worth it, YES!!  At first when we arrived to said location I was a little discouraged because of all the people.  When you go to Horseshoe Bend there is a designated area that feels like the main spot to look out over the center of the bend.  I noticed off to the side there were hardly any people so I decided to go check it out.  I discovered that even off to the side you still feel like you are looking out towards the center of the bend and the sun position was Perfect!!  Lauren was such a trooper, who knew she had a fear of heights. Again huge Shout out, THANK YOU to Lauren and Will for making my photography dreams come true.  As you know with the covid-19 pandemic Weddings have been limited, I have not been able to shoot hardly any weddings, which made this day even better!!  I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed photographing them.

A Very Sweet Wedding at the Encanto Park Clubhouse With Nicole and Chad

Image
 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.

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...

Jason + Dena = wedding @ Sassi

Image
Where to start? When my friend Nancy heard that Dena was engaged she sent her my way. I met with Dena and Jason and instantly felt comfortable with them and was very excited to be their wedding photographer. Since the time of meeting Dena up to the wedding I have gained a new friend. In getting to know Dena through my photography workshop, emails and fb I noticed she had a specific idea of how her wedding would feel, look and be documented. In quoting Dena "I am a pictureaholic". I have been shooting weddings forever, but I still get nervous and every once in awhile I will feel intimidated and this was one of those days. However, once I get to the venue and have my camera in hand the feelings all go away and I never lose sight of the importance of this once a in lifetime moment! Jason and Dena were married at Sassi , an incredible venue in north Scottsdale. It was an amazing wedding that ran perfectly with the help of Valerie with blueprint affairs . I also had the lovely Tr...
