Vanessa + Emilio - A Romantic Engagement

Nothing says a romantic engagement session like wondering through the Aspen trees to find the perfect picnic spot and taking some photos along the way....

Michelle + Matt- Arizona Downtown Engagement

Summer engagement sessions in Arizona always have the potential for disaster due to the heat, but its the gamble you have to take sometimes. Michelle and Matt were willing to fight the elements with me and I am so happy they did. :) We had tons of fun running around downtown together and I cannot wait for their October wedding at the beautiful Firesky Resort in Old Town Scottsdale. 

Shellie + Ken Engaged

We are lucky enough to photograph a lot of engagement sessions, but todays' is a little different and very dear to my heart, because it's family.

My little brother fell in love. And he just so happen to fall for one of the sweetest women I have ever met. I was so happy that I had the chance to capture their love for one another.

To Ken + Shellie, I love you both, more than you know.
