Emily & Jacob ✨ 04.25.2026

All the way from Maine to the Arizona desert to promise each other forever.

There was something so raw, emotional, and deeply intentional about this day. No big production. No distractions. Just the two of them surrounded by the desert, their favorite people, and a love that felt so genuine in every moment. The way Jacob looked at Emily, the tears during the ceremony, the quiet moments in between… it all felt incredibly special to witness.

This truly feels like the year of eloping in the desert and honestly… I completely understand why. Arizona just has a way of making love stories feel cinematic.

Alex & Kevin ✨

02.28.2026

A few years ago, I had the honor of photographing Kevin & Alex’s maternity session as they stepped into a brand new season of life together… so when they reached out and asked me to photograph their wedding day too, it genuinely meant so much to me. Watching clients turn into friends and getting a front row seat to these milestones will never stop feeling surreal.

And can we just take a second for Alex because WOW. An actual model bride. The elegance, the energy, the smile, the way she carries herself so effortlessly… absolutely stunning inside and out. These two are magnetic together and their day was the perfect mix of classy, emotional, joyful, and FUN.

Kevin & Alex, thank you for trusting me with such important memories throughout your journey together. I truly hope your marriage is filled with so much laughter, peace, adventure, and a lifetime of love. You both deserve it ♥️

If you’re dreaming of timeless wedding photos that still feel full of life and personality, I’d love to tell your story next!

Ada & Dalton ✨ 03.28.2026

Best friends first for over 10 years and now it’s the beginning of forever.

There’s something so special about a love that starts with friendship… the kind that feels easy, safe, and completely natural. Blessed to have captured their beautiful love and friendship.

Taylor & Lorenc ♥️ 11.07.2025

Whenever there’s a horse involved… count me in.

But truly, this day was so much more than the boots, the desert views, and the most beautiful western details. It was the way they looked at each other, the quiet in-between moments, and the kind of love that feels steady, grounded, and full of joy.

I adore these two and the life they’re building together. What a dream of a wedding.

If you’re planning a wedding that feels like you whether that’s in the desert, in the mountains, or somewhere wildly meaningful, I’d love to be a part of it. Reach out and let’s start dreaming together!

Kendall & Preston 03.14.2026 ♥️

I mean this with zero exaggeration. I am truly obsessed with every last detail from their wedding. It was nothing short of a dream.

Every single detail of their day was so thoughtfully beautiful… the florals, the setting, the light… but what stood out the most was them. The way they love each other, the way they carry themselves, the kindness they show to everyone around them. It’s rare, and it’s special.

Truly some of my all-time favorite clients. The sweetest souls, the most genuine hearts. I feel so lucky that God continues to place people like this in front of my camera.

I already know their life together is going to be full of so much love, joy, and blessing ♥️

Arlene & Matt 03.13.2026 ♥️

I don’t even know where to begin with these two. Their wedding day was absolutely stunning… the kind of day that reminds me why I love what I do so much. From the soft, emotional moments to the desert sunset wrapping around them it was pure magic.

But what stands out to me the most wasn’t just how beautiful everything was… it was them.

I ended up getting really sick during their wedding from heat exhaustion while still recovering from the flu, and they showed me nothing but kindness, grace, and genuine care the entire time. The way they treated me in the middle of their own wedding day says everything about who they are.

They traveled all the way from Texas to have their dream wedding here in Arizona, and I feel so incredibly honored that they chose me to capture it.

Arlene & Matt, I am so grateful for you both. Thank you for trusting me, for your patience, and for your kindness. You are truly something special, I have no doubt that you guys will have a blessed marriage ♥️

Caroline & Marco ✨

From the quiet emotion during their vows to golden hour portraits in the desert and a celebration under the lights, their day was full of so many beautiful moments. The deep reds, the warm Arizona light, and the way these two look at each other… it was all pure magic.

You can feel how much they adore one another in every photo. The kind of love that’s calm, joyful, and completely effortless. Congratulations to these cuties! Wishing them all the best.

Congratulations to Hannah & Brandon ♥️

A few weeks ago, I had the incredible honor of photographing one of my best friend’s engagement session… and it felt so surreal. Hannah and I have second shot so many weddings together over the years. I’ve watched her serve her couples with so much talent, heart, and intention. I admire her work deeply, but even more than that, I admire who she is.

When she asked me to photograph her engagement, I won’t lie, I felt the pressure. Photographing another photographer (especially one you respect so much) is humbling. But I also felt so incredibly honored that she trusted me with something this meaningful.

There were so many images I didn’t even post because I loved too many. This might need a part two.

Hannah, I love you. I am so happy for you and Brandon, and I’m beyond grateful I got to capture this beautiful milestone in your story.

First post of the year 😅 HEY FRIENDS! Happy New Year 🤍

Andddd Happy Valentine’s Day 💍✨

I had to make sure my first post of 2026 was extra special. Caitlin is one of my main second shooters (you’ve definitely seen her at weddings with me!) and she’s engaged to her wonderful fiancé, Elijah.

Getting to photograph someone who stands beside me on wedding days, cheering on our couples and capturing love stories with me… and now getting to capture hers? Such a full circle moment. 🥹

Caitlin and Elijah both have such a deep love for God, and it shows in the way they love each other steady, joyful, and grounded in faith. It’s the kind of love that feels intentional and anchored in something bigger than just the two of them. 🤍

The laughs, the quiet forehead touches, the hand squeezes, the golden light wrapping around them it was all so effortless.

I love you guys so much and I am SO excited for your next chapter 🤍💍

2026 is already off to a beautiful start.

Alyza & Coy ♥️

Rodeo roots, desert sunsets, and two people who love each other (and their horses) something fierce. 🐎🤎
From the moment I arrived, these two were all laughs, soft moments, and the sweetest connection with their horses, truly the heart of who they are.
I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next year. If their engagement session was any hint… it’s going to be pure magic.
