It’s always a huge compliment when a fellow photographer hires me for photos. Mike had been following me for awhile on Instagram when he reached out about having a session with his wife Erika and their dog Audrey. Not only did I get to geek out with Mike about photography gear, but I also got […]

winter wedding at the Stillwell House and Gardens in Tucson, AZ

I separately asked Gwen and Dan to describe themselves in just two words. They both had one adjective in common: adventurous. They planned their wedding in just 5 months while living out-of-state and buying a home together post-pandemic all at the same time. I’d say that’s pretty adventurous. After spending the day with both of […]

blackberry and red Saguaro Buttes wedding in Tucson, AZ

Hope and Buddy’s Saguaro Buttes wedding day was an absolute treat– and not just because it took place on Halloween (sorry, I had to go for the pun!). At their Gates Pass engagement session in late 2019, I heard all about their huge Italian and Greek families. “Be prepared,” they said, “there are a lot […]

Stillwell House wedding with fall colors in Tucson

Alaina and Michael’s Stillwell House wedding was full of energy. I’m not sure if either one of them went more than a few seconds at a time without laughing. The moment we started planning the wedding day together, they both just stressed that they wanted it to be fun. Mission complete! Bold colors. Practical jokes. […]

Taylor and James’ Kartchner Caverns wedding was full of contrasting color and lush greenery. After having to postpone, these two were beyond ready to celebrate with the family and friends that were able to attend.  As a wildlife biologist, incorporating nature on her wedding day was very important to Taylor.

The moment I started talking with Jennie about her and Dave’s wedding at the Stillwell House in Tucson, I could tell she really wanted every aspect to be unique and special to the two of them. That same character and enthusiasm spilled over to planning their engagement session, too. Jennie and Dave told me that […]
