 Kristy and Paul were married on June 6th at Tlaquepaque in Sedona.  Their ceremony was held at the chapel and the reception took place at the Secret Garden Cafe, both in Tlaquepaque.  Maria Grace, www.twoheartsonelifeweddings.com , was the officiant and we always love working with her!

 

Paul is an F-16 pilot and his job will soon take the newlyweds away from Arizona to new horizons in the Sunshine State of Florida.  With them will be their new addition ... that's right, they are expecting their first baby - though you would never know it from the way Kristy looked in her beautiful sheath gown - amazing :-)!!!

 

Kristy and Paul, thank you both so much!  You were a pleasure to work with and your families and friends were wonderful as well!  Can't wait for the next shoot ... either a maternity shoot or a baby shoot :-).  Enjoy and congratulations!

Rev. Maria K. Grace:

Wonderful photos. Again! And another sweet and beautiful couple. Aren't we lucky to work in this business?
If I get married again to my husband on a bigger scale (we renew our vows every year), I'd like to have you do our photos...

Molly and Joel were married in an intimate ceremony among close family and friends on May 30th at the lovely L'Auberge de Sedona.  They chose the creekside venue which is always so quaint and beautiful in the springtime.  Their ceremony took place under a canopy of emerald green trees by a babbling stream as baby ducks swam close to their mothers ... can't get much more idyllic than that :-)!!

 

The couple followed their morning ceremony with a lovely lunch.  By the way, the kids in this wedding were the cuttest ever, as you will soon see.  Molly is a photographer herself, so we had much to talk about ... she even did a wedding once, but thought it was too much work. That is so true but it can be very rewarding, especially when you get clients like these two :-).  Molly and Joel, thank you for having us as your wedding photographers.  You made us feel right at home and it was so wonderful working with you both!!

We photographed Kendall and Ryan a few weeks ago in Flagstaff for their engagement shoot.  They brought along their adorable Yorkie-Poo, Keighley to pose in some of the photos (and I must say, she did a great job.)  Ryan's grandmother also came along and was nice enough to "babysit" Keighley in the down time :-).

 

The weather looked menacing but held out long enough for us to finish the shoot, at which time it poured.  Kendall and Ryan, we had a great time and are looking forward to your wedding in July ... wow, not to far away :-).  See you then!

OK, I admit it ... I am drowning right now between deadlines and traveling for weddings, which is why I am sooooo beind on my blogging.  After the next two engagement postings, I still have 4 weddings to blog and 2 more will be added to that list after this coming weekend.  So for all of those clients patiently waiting to catch a sneak peak, I swear I haven't forgotten you and I will get to them as soon as I can :-).

 

On to Robin and Jeff's engagement shoot.  We conducted this shoot a few weeks ago in Sedona - Red Rock Crossing and Merry-Go-Round Rock to be precise.  Though it began with a little rain it cleared out nicely, leaving us with a great sky and beautiful light.

 

Robin and Jeff, it was a pleasure getting to know you both better and we can't wait for your wedding in October!  Enjoy the sneak peak!

Two weeks ago Amber and Troy traveled to Phoenix from Los Angeles for their wedding at the always spectacular Desert Botanical Gardens (one of my very favorite venues)!!  The Chihuly exhibit was still going on, making for great backdrops to photos.  Troy is a director and couldn't resist getting behind the cameras every now and again - I totally understand though.  I was the same way at my own wedding last year :-).

 

There were many special elements to this wedding including Troy's mom officiating the ceremony, which made for some wonderfully tender moments.  The most exicting element though was Amber's pregnancy.  I loved her attitude towards being five months pregnant and wearing a wedding dress - her words, "it's obvious, so I figured why not flaunt it!"  And that she did in her lovely sheath gown ... you go girl :-)!!  She was absolutely radiant!!  The final special element was the couple's decision to reveal their baby's gender with the unveiling of the cake ... the topper - a pair of blue baby shoes ... it's a boy!!

 

Amber and Troy, thank you so much for having us as your wedding photographers.  You were a genuine delight to get to know!  Seriously, you are two of the nicest, most genuine people we have ever had the pleasure of meeting!  We wish you all the best in life :-)!
