Kenzie + Alex | A Colorful Southwestern Wedding at Hyatt Tamaya

Kenzie and Alex met when they we're 13, and Kenzie had a crush. Even though nothing happened in high school, they reconnected after college while living in Arizona. Not long after they reconnected, they spent the fourth of July together, and the fireworks weren't the only sparks flying that night. Kenzie's younger sister had graduated college, and Kenzie was desperate to get to the restaurant to see all the family who had come into town to celebrate. But when she got there, s

Julie + Aaron | A Star Aligned Wedding at Noah's Event Center

Julie and Aaron met in a totally chance encounter. She needed a new car, and he worked at the lot she went to. You could say it was a coincidence, or you could say it was in the stars. Four years later, Aaron proposed on top of the Sandia Crest at sunset, with Julie saying 'Yes" in the as the stars appeared. These two Virgos knew that the majesty, mystery, and beauty of the heavens needed to be incorporated into their wedding. Julies bridesmaids wore deep navy dresses, like t

Sara + Paul | A Bright and Whimsical Wedding at Los Poblanos

We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to be able to attend and capture so many beautiful weddings all year long. But it is particularly special when it's our dear friend's whose wedding we are asked to document. Sara and Paul's wedding was the perfect combination of classic elegance, paired with a killer party. Sara's dress was a stunning two piece gown from Emma and Grace Bridal with an interchangeable skirt. The second skirt, without a train, made it easier for her to d

Kayla + Geno's special day was full of vibrant colors and beautiful handmaid details, straight out of Kayla's pinterest dreams.

Kayla's hands touched so many aspects of their wedding, from making all her own bouquets and boutonnieres, to doing her own hair and makeup. She looked like a Disney fairytale pr

While everyone else was choosing resolutions like: Lose weight, eat less salt, get a better wardrobe, Erika and Ed chose each other. Their ceremon

Ryan and Raquel met while at Defined Fitness. Ryan gathered up enough courage to go up to her and ask her to lunch, which she says surprises her now because it is so out of his character.

Anna + Jordan | Noah's Event Center Wedding

Anna told me that she chose a Monday as the day for her wedding as she wanted to start the week off as husband and wife, not end it. There were so many other thoughtful touches put into this beautiful Monday wedding, from the blue trumpet Anna gifted Jordan (How I Met your Mother reference) to the meaningful vows they read to each other at the alter. At the reception Jordan played " I can't help falling in love" on his trumpet for Anna and then guests cut loose on the dance f

Brooke and Mitch both traveled to Albuquerque to visit her family for Christmas and were able to squeeze in their engagement session between wedding planning and the chaos of the holidays.

Lindsay + Brett

When Lindsay first contacted me she mentioned that she wasn't a traditional bride in the sense that she wasn't one for bells and whistles, and all she cared about was marrying the man she loved. She had mailed me a 2 page letter explaining how she met Brett and how she envisioned her wedding day to be. Being the sucker that I am for snail mail, this letter really warmed my heart. Their wedding was perfectly simple yet had so many adorable details that the wedding guests truly
