Kristin and Kyle have been coming to us for various portrait shoots for the past couple of years including their engagement shoot and Kristin's bridal shoot (their wedding was out of state and they had a photographer friend shoot it) and now they are back because they are having a baby!  Kristin wanted maternity photos and then newborn photos once he was born.  She was a little over 8 months when we conducted her shoot in the Superstition Mountain Range on the east side of Phoenix.  She really didn't look it though ... I think it must be the height (Kristin is 6'.)  We love these two but unfortunately it look as though our shooting foreys will soon be ending ... they are most likely moving to Kentucky.  We will miss you two!!

There was a bit of confussion about when Kelcey's father should take his seat, but it all finally worked out and added a bit of humor to the ceremony :-).

Mindy:

Beautiful set. They look like they had a lot of fun. I agree with you the sunset shots were my fav.

(02.26.10 @ 06:30 PM)
Angela:

I agree, that one shot is just breathtaking! I love it so much! Such a beautiful set of photos...once again, and as always, you two did an amazing job.

Sarah and Brady were married on January 9th, 2010 at the Castle at Ashley Manor in Chandler.  It was a beautiful day with mild temperatures and plenty of sunshine ... what else would you expect though from the valley of the sun in winter.

 

We have really enjoyed working with this couple since they booked us last year (the engagement shoot was a ton of fun) and have been eagerly anticipating this wedding!  It was all I had imagined, with beautiful decorations and details, a stunning couple, gracious (and fun) family and friends and a rockin reception!  Thank you Sarah and Brady for having us as your wedding photographers.  We are looking forward to the trash-the-dress shoot :-)!

 

My good friend and very talented wedding photographer, Melissa Dunstan, went along on this one as the second shooter.  We had such a blast working together and we even took a moment to have photos taken in the photo booth ... LOVE those :-).  Thanks Melissa for all your hard work!!

 

Love Sarah's dress and red shoes ... all the girls wore red shoes too.

This is one of my favorite photos!!  It looks more like a painting than a photograph.
1-9-10SBWed03.jpg
1-9-10SBWed04.jpg
Sarah's team: the Detroit Red Wings and Brady's team: the St. Louis Cardinals ... you will be seeing a lot of this throughout the wedding :-)!
1-9-10SBWed05.jpg
This is adorable :-).  Sarah's friend set this up to take a photo.
1-9-10SBWed06.jpg
1-9-10SBWed07.jpg
1-9-10SBWed08.jpg
How cute!!
1-9-10SBWed09.jpg
A great shot by Melissa of Brady getting ready!
1-9-10SBWed10.jpg
1-9-10SBWed11.jpg
1-9-10SBWed12.jpg
Again, so cute!!
1-9-10SBWed13.jpg
Sarah's walk down the aisle got emotional for everyone.
1-9-10SBWed14.jpg
Brady had a hard time holding back the tears.
1-9-10SBWed15.jpg
1-9-10SBWed16.jpg
I LOVE this shot by Melissa!!
1-9-10SBWed17.jpg

These guys were such hams :-) ... just hilarious!!
1-9-10SBWed31.jpg
More red shoes and humor.
1-9-10SBWed32.jpg
How cute is this shot ... we didn't expect the smallest girl in the bridal party to walk with everyone, but she did and it was great!!!  Only problem was, she didn't want to turn around :-).
1-9-10SBWed33.jpg
1-9-10SBWed34.jpg
What a beautiful setting!

1-9-10SBWed39.jpg
This is one of my favorite "first dance" shots ... the mood is just amazing!
1-9-10SBWed40.jpg
Sarah shared a very spirited first dance with her father ... it was great!!

OK ... as you can see, Melissa and I got in on the photo booth fun.  I am on the left in the stunning, and I might add chic, leopard pimp hat and Melissa is on the right in the flamboyant, hooker pink feather boa.  We make quite a pair, don't we??!!  And look at Sarah and Brady ... I love photo booths with props!!

This little girl could sing ... she was AMAZING to listen to!!
1-9-10SBWed54.jpg
How funny is this guy ... I think he robbed the prop box from the photo booth ... I hope :-)! 
1-9-10SBWed55.jpg
Gotta love when people really get into the "Thriller" song :-) ... AWESOME!
1-9-10SBWed56.jpg
1-9-10SBWed57.jpg
These two are so funny!!

Pam and Andrew were married September 28th - yes, that was a Monday and it seems like Monday weddings are becoming more and more popular :-)!  They chose to have their ceremony and reception at the Castle at Ashley Manor in Chandler.  The same heat wave that was hovering over Mexico the previous weekend was also hovering over Phoenix with no signs of letting up.  I believe the temperature was a record 107 degrees that day.  Luckily, only parts of the wedding were held outside so it didn't bother anyone too much!

 

The one thing I want to say about this couple besides the fact that we just really liked them both and they were wonderful to work with, is that their love and devotion to each other was so remarkably strong and endearing.  They were so sweet together and the outpouring of emotions between them as well as from their family and guests was unbelievably touching!  Thank you both so much for including us in your very special day!

Pamala Stewart:

Magnificent!! Tina & Kevin you are so awesome. Thank you for your talent & for giving us the pleasure of being taken back to that wonderful day every time we look at our photos. You both have the wonderful skill of being able to carry the viewer into the moment & emotion captured! Love love the photos... you were a pleasure!

Pamala Stewart:

Look at those adorably cute kids.

(02.16.10 @ 02:09 AM)

Amanda and Ryan held their wedding at Nardini Manor in Buckeye, Arizona.  It is a beautiful and historic 1912 manor set in a cotton field on the outskirts of west Phoenix and is a stunning setting for a romantic wedding!

 

Two things will be very obvious in this posting ... the couple's love for one another and their love for the cute resident manor kitten and their ADORABLE dog, Flip ... did I mention how ADORABLE he is??!!!  God, he is sooooo freakin cute!!!!

 

Thank you both so much for having me as your wedding photographer!  You have both been so wonderful to work with and I hope to work with you on your 1 year anniversary for a trash-the-dress shoot :-).  Enjoy the sneak peak!
