Who wouldn’t want to get married at Disneyland? I know I definitely would! Well, Madi and Riley picked the closest thing to Disneyland in Tucson for their wedding. Chosing to get married at Pinnacle Peak in Tucson, Arizona Madi and Riley were able to kiss on the carousel, say “I do” under a white gazeboo, and celebrate with friends and family inside elegant Savoy House. Pinnacle Peak has played an important role in their relationship. A place they came while dating and with family, it just made sense that they would get married here. Their wedding day was full of joy and love!

She is from Ecuador, he is from Tucson. Miles between them, yet these two found each other. Kyle and Kiara met while they both were in Peru. After returning home they began talking online and wanted to explore the spark that they both felt. After traveling to Ecuador to meet Kiara and her family, Kyle knew she was the one. These two have overcome so many obstacles for love and yet you would never know it. They are absolutely smitten with one another and don’t care who knows it!

She knew the moment they met that he would be hers. He could get lost in her eyes forever. Serena and Jordan’s love story seems like it is straight out of The Notebook. Their Gates Pass Engagement session was breathtakingly beautiful and I can’t wait to share all the pretty things with you all!

Nicole and Denis’ wedding at the Wedgewood Ocotillo Golf Course in Chandler, Arizona was nothing short of amazing! This darling couple’s story began when they met online. Their wedding day started with lots of hugs and laughter. As I photographed all the stunning bridal details, Nicole and her bride tribe all settled into the bridal suite. Honestly, photographing details is one of my favorite parts of a wedding day. I love carefully arranging the flowers, invitations, jewelry, etc in a way that visually represents all the months of planning and thought that the bride poured into creating such a magical day!

Kelly and Ben could not have asked for a more perfect September day. Blue skies, gentle breezes, and the warm sun filtering through the trees created a storybook backdrop for their wedding at La Mariposa Resort in Tucson, Arizona.

This August wedding brought love, heat, and a monsoon carrying a sweet message from above. Trasea and Luke were married at the Tucson Arizona Temple and we were able to take bridal party and couple’s portraits at the gorgeous Omni Tucson Resort. Their day was full of joy, laughter, and love.

Madalyn and Steve’s wedding was nothing short of timeless elegance. Their wedding ceremony was held at the Tucson Arizona Temple, where the majesty of this building never ceases to amaze me. The blue dome and white exterior pop beautifully against the desert landscape. Family and friends welcomed the newlyweds as they exited the temple with excited cheers and hugs. With the hot summer temperatures, Madalyn and Steve chose to have their reception at the Highlands at Dove Mountain. This is one of my favorite venues in Tucson! The picturesque views of the city are absolutely breathtaking! Blush pinks, calming whites, soft greens, and touches of gold comprised the color palette Madalyn chose for her wedding. These colors coupled with luxurious draping and sparkling chandeliers adorning the ballroom, let the beauty of the venue shine!

I love photographing families! When Priscilla reached out to me to set up a family session, I was ecstatic! I couldn’t wait to meet their sweet baby girl! We had a great time together during their family session. Baby Natalia was all smiles, looking adorable in her pink tutu!
