Ashly & Cole - Quality Inn, Prescott









Truly one of the sweetest brides I've ever met. Ashly was so sweet and calm all day. We documented their entire day and loved every minute of it. I decided to put in a few pictures that tell a little of their story on this special day. I started out meeting Ashly and her attendants at a local salon. Then Matthew & I met up later at the wedding site to capture the rest of the event. It was a beautiful wedding, pulled together with perfection by DeeAnna, Quality Inn's own wedding coordinator. The last image is a photo of the guest event cards included in our wedding packages. These cards are created with a photo of the bride & groom's choice from their engagement session, along with their names, wedding date, and all their login information to view their wedding photos online. Our brides usually choose to place them all over the tables at the reception for their guests. Here's a few of Ashly & Cole's storybook moments.

The Magnett Kids - Prescott





Matthew truly captured the personalities of these adorable little ones. My absolute favorite is the one where they're obviously tired of smiling for the camera. Isn't it just classic?? : )

Bronski Family - Sedona







We had the pleasure to photograph this beautiful family from Kentucky. (I loved the accent!) They were vacationing and wanted some red rock photos to take home. We had hoped to catch one of those gorgeous Sedona sunsets, but a storm moved in and the sunset didn't happen. However, we hiked back into the creek and captured some adorable photos of their three girls and a little friend, and some red rock portraits with Cathedral Rock. Here are some of our favorites from the day.

Angelique & David - Fountain Hills







Remember that cute couple who just loved on each other throughout their engagement session? Well, they were just as easy to capture at their wedding. It was a beautiful backyard ceremony with close friends and family. Their four young boys were part of the wedding party and we recently got the wonderful news that they are expecting another! Congratulations! David and Angie were married on July 14 on a hot Phoenix evening. They had all their guests light candles and set them to float. It was a quiet, intimate, and romantic ceremony.

Whitehouse Family - Grand Canyon







Okay, going back in time to the summer of 2007...... This wonderfully fun family decided they wanted to do their family portrait while on vacation from back east. What better place to do it than Arizona's own Grand Canyon! Of course Matt loved that idea and we were all lucky that he took pictures of the family and not just the canyon. :)
The evening ended up being a little breezy but as a summer thunderstorm went through, Matt captured these spectacular views.
