mountainside engagement session in Tucson desert with labradoodle by Christy Hunter Photography

Megan and Colin knew right away where they wanted to have their engagement session in Tucson. They spend a lot of time outdoors together hiking and exploring new spots. They asked me if I’d be down for a short hike at one of their favorite spots. Bring it on! And guys… they totally brought it! I think I might want all of my sessions to take place mountainside!
