I cannot get over how amazing John and Caitlin’s in home wedding was. First of all John remodeled their home and did such an incredible job. Caitlin’s details blew me away! She arranged the flowers, did all the favors, and added so many more adorable touches. So much love and attention to detail went into this small intimate wedding. All their family joined them and their friends helped prepare food and drinks. The margaritas were DELICIOUS and the food from Seis never disappoints. The beautiful cake was by 5 Points Market. Caitlin was a total bombshell in her dress and John looked so handsome. All the photos were taken in and around their home. I feel so lucky that I got to be a part of their day and thanks to one of my besties Jen Lemos for coming along to help!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Gillaspy family invited me up to Mt. Lemmon (one of my favorite places) to do their photos again this year! It was cold, the clouds were moving super fast like smoke though the sky, and the leaves were all shades of yellow, orange and red. It was PERFECT! These kiddos kept me laughing and there may have been a little crying from the littlest member of the family, but we got some adorable, colorful, sweet photos! Here are some of my favorites.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was lucky enough to photograph the Allie family again this year at Sabino Canyon. Not really sure how we got so lucky with the most perfect weather and day in all of history. We dodged the cactus and beetles as best as we could and made it long enough to see the amazing sunset! Always such a blast with this adorable family and I love that Alicia and I share the same obsession for tulle! She rocked that skirt!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Catherine and Aaron had a beautiful, intimate wedding at The Arizona Inn. These two lovebirds are from California and met while in school. Their closest friends and family joined them to celebrate their inspirational love, the amazing weather, and the kiddos that stole the show! Beautiful flowers by In Full Bloom, lovely cake by Jaynie Rossi Cakes, music by Beth Daunis and Phil Lipman, and a huge thank you to Jenn Hannon for assisting me

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alyssa is just the most radiant, beautiful baby cooking momma ever, and oh little Nixon….how you steal my heart with that smile. Nixon is going to be a big brother!! He started off really shy and kept covering his face with his hands….then we discovered he had cool pockets! And Brian, you did a great job too;)

I cannot wait to meet little miss soon! Here are some favorites from our evening.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stacy and Becky waited so long for this precious little angel to arrive in their lives. I helped take their adoption portfolio photos earlier this year and I was overjoyed to hear they found a match! We did a little outdoor fall session to celebrate their new little family!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lots of birthdays lately!!!! Little Tyler has been on earth for a whole year! Most babies don’t want anything to do with the cake. We actually have to make them touch it, but NOT TYLER! He was digging in…literally!!! He absolutely loved it and it was the cutest thing ever…..aside from his little tongue smile! Here he is with his beautiful family!

I have known Melissa and Brent for a long time and I was overjoyed that they asked me to travel to California to document their beautiful wedding day. They got married on Imperial Beach right near the ocean and the reception was on the rooftop of Pier South Resort.  It was perfect and I did not want to leave the beach! The sky was magical and the weather was a dream. There was an abundance of incredibly adorable children and so many familiar faces. It melted my heart when I heard Melissa and Brent’s daughter Taylor say “Mommy, now your last name is Bonnett like mine!”

Thank you to my amazingly incredible friend Torey from Torey Photo for holding my hand on the plane when I almost had a nervous breakdown because of the bumpy ride, listening to me talk your ear off for hours on end, spending 6 hours at a pizza restaurant eating and dancing the night away, and being the greatest wing woman during the wedding. I love you dearly!
