I was crazy honored to get to photograph Lacey and Rizwan while they visited the desert all the way from Canada last month! They were total naturals in front of the camera, and Lacey challenged me with a “moodier” vibe for her session. Needless to say, it all came together beautifully and the desert light […]

This year, I teamed up with my dear friend Jess from Shine Events to create something original+unique. I love the Arizona Biltmore as a wedding venue–it’s full of history and […]

Melissa+Andy are getting married this fall and I’m so honored to be a part of it.
