Arizona Wedding-Boudoir-High School Senior-Photographer

Shara + John have the kind of love that lights up a room. When they look at each other, you can see how much they cherish one another and it is such a beautiful sight. On May 11th, 2013 the two committed their lives to one another in front of their family; a total of 9 guests. There is something so special about a small, intimate wedding like theirs. It was an honor to be invited into their most special day, among those that they love the most.

I had SO much fun sipping on champagne with them, exploring the beautiful Encanterra grounds and taking their romance shots along the way. It’s weddings like theirs that make me ask myself, “Is this really my job?!”.

Shara+John, thanks for being so amazing. I am so blessed to have met you both and to have been the one to document your awesomeness. Congrats again!!! xoxo

Katie + Mike’s day was just FILLED with fun, celebration, joy and love. It was one of those days when I have to stop a moment and think, “Is this really my job?!”. It was such a blessing to watch these two love on each other all day and to witness the joy and excitement that their family and friends had for them. Katie + Mike have the kind of love that when you see it, you can’t help but smile. It is infectious. You can’t help but rejoice with them! I am so, so glad that I got to be one to capture their love on the day they became husband and wife. What an honor!

Congrats Katie + Mike! I am happy to call you two friends :) xoxo
