Wedding Tips & Inspiration

When I first pulled up to Karen’s childhood home in the Tanque Verde area, I was in complete awe. During their engagement session last summer, they told me all about their vision on the property: an outdoor wedding in Tucson with touches of marigold yellow everywhere. I knew it was going to be nothing short […]

Krystal and Elvin are described by their friends and family as shy and incredibly kind. We had a great time last summer at their engagement session getting to know each other. The bright greens and soft pinks and blues from their photos at Sweetwater Wetlands popped up again at their spring wedding at Saguaro Buttes. […]

Although Jennie is from Louisiana, she totally embraces Dave’s southwest home. Their fiesta wedding in downtown Tucson beautifully incorporated the rich culture, cuisine, and colors of Arizona. I feel like the whole vibe and atmosphere of the day couldn’t help but be joyful and vibrant. How could it not be with such bright colors and […]

With less than two weeks to go before their wedding, Kelli and I worked quickly to coordinate photography into her and Matthew’s  celebration at Tohono Chul Park. She had already organized most of the important details of the day. The venue had been chosen, flowers were ordered, invitations were mailed…, but then she realized she […]

Anna and Jared kicked off 2022 by saying “I do” at the beautiful Saguaro Buttes Weddings and Event venue in Tucson. When they first inquired with me and I saw their wedding date, I was a bit worried. I wondered if the “cool” January temperatures might be a concern for them. Nope! For those of […]

I separately asked Gwen and Dan to describe themselves in just two words. They both had one adjective in common: adventurous.

After spending the day with both of […]

Katie and Ethan’s wedding day plans changed quite a bit since their downtown Tucson engagement session. Due to a surprise scheduling conflict from the pandemic, they had to find a new venue to host their celebration. Katie’s parents had offered up their backyard in Oro Valley to host their daughter’s wedding when she got engaged, […]

Since I wasn’t going to be spending the whole day with Leah and Andrew, I wanted to be sure I knew what their priorities were for their wedding day. While I do everything that I can to grab a large variety of images from different aspects of the day to tell my couples’ stories, I […]

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 […]

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. […]
