Wish I had taken more photos on my camera during this vacation but I also have plenty of phone photos so all the good memories and beautiful places were recorded anyway 😊

Flagstaff weddings have a way of feeling both rugged and incredibly refined at the same time. The air in the pines always seems to settle the nerves of a wedding morning, and the light up here does most of the heavy lifting for me. This day was a perfect example of why I love photographing in the high country.

I find myself drawn to the small, specific choices that make a day feel so natural and fitting to this southwest mountain town. The groom wearing a bolo tie with his suit, the bride with flowers tied into her hair, or the sight of the couple's dog wandering through the ceremony all tell a much more honest story than any posed portrait ever could. This was a classic Flagstaff celebration, captured exactly as it unfolded.

Ali & Adam got married last fall on a rainy monsoon day (a sign of good luck!) and everything smelled like fresh pine trees. There was a lot of line dancing and good doggos and delicious cupcakes and heartfelt speeches and the way this couple looked at each other was so pure and loving. It was a perfect wedding day.
