Wedding Tips & Inspiration

For their engagement photos, Mac and Jessica wanted to feature two very different places. They spend a lot of time outdoors with each other and love the green, woodsy feel of Mt. Lemmon’s trails.  I always encourage my couples to pick meaningful locations and that’s certainly their thoughts behind location number two: the U of […]

Renata and Vincent’s engagement session made me feel like we were back in Spring as opposed to being a few weeks away from Winter. Vibrant outfits and warm weather brought some fun, beautiful color back into the desert landscape. They claimed they were both shy, but we talked the entire time and Vincent let his […]

I went into full “wedding cheerleader” mode at Ciara and Logan’s cozy downtown wedding in Tucson at the Stillwell House. They’re both introverts like I am. When the big day arrived, they were so excited to get married. But the nervous butterflies also kicked into overdrive. Logan and Ciara had a ton of fun things […]

Lora and Mike knew they wanted to feature a desert landscape in their engagement photos. There was one important caveat though– it had to be a dog-friendly location. Their Irish doodle Charlie is very important to them; having her included in photos was a must! Sweetwater Preserve was the perfect spot. The trails are lined […]

Fall weather was in full force for Daniel and Amanda’s windy desert engagement session. There was a 20 degree temperature drop from the day before and a blanket of clouds covered the sky. Even though we were all battling the elements, we were able to feature something very near and dear to Amanda’s heart within […]

On a windy October afternoon, Breanna and Tony’s closest friends and family gathered in Tucson to celebrate with them. Lots of hard work and preparation had gone into their Westin La Paloma wedding, but, when the day finally arrived, all Tony and Breanna cared about was that they were finally marrying each other. Their elegant […]

Occasionally, I receive wedding inquiries from couples getting married in Tennessee. Even though I’ve relocated to Arizona (for now– thanks military life lol), I still travel back to TN frequently to see my friends and family. When Crystal initially reached out to me, I wasn’t available for her date. But, after trying to balance a […]

It’s been a little over six months since I spent the day with Dane and Sam on Mt. Lemmon for their engagement session. And now I got to kick off my crazy fall wedding season with their beautiful emerald and burgundy wedding at the Stillwell House in downtown Tucson. They were just as fun and […]

Hayley reached out to me earlier this month asking about a destination engagement session in Tucson with her fiancé Aaron. They’re from Utah and that’s where they’ll be getting married this November. I love celebrating other couples’ marriages– even when I may not be their wedding photographer. That’s why I always make room for a […]

Linden and Eric booked their engagement session with me a little over a month ago. They knew they’d be traveling from California back here to Tucson and wanted to make sure they got their engagement photos taken while they were in town. I’m not quite sure they anticipated such unstable weather, but they stayed optimistic […]
