{Kelly + Bill underneath the trees}

Kelly and Bill underneath the trees, just as it was getting dark, not long after this the sun completely set, so I was getting dreamy-end-of-the-day light, which I love. I love how they are looking at each other in that second one---ahhh!

I was taking these photos of them, while Becky and their beautiful curly-haired baby boy were in the grass running around, playing and getting more photos of just him.

More photos of Kelly + Bill to come! 

((Side note story: Years and years ago we went to Hume Lake with Kelly and a bunch of other people from our college group. Bill might have been there (I'm not sure, sorry Bill!)  One story I remember from that trip is that Becky and Kelly and some other girls got up in the middle of the night and TP'ed the building the guys were sleeping in and later on Becky would talk about how much fun Kelly was. Do you remember that Kelly?! It was kinda a long time ago!))

Did you see the moon tonight?

 

Moonrise, fairy grass, new peaches on the tree. 

I was so surprised to see the moon tonight. Does that happen to you? The evening that it is full or almost full, the first time I see it in the sky, my eyes pop out, my head swings back to stare up at it, I know I am making it sound a bit cartoonish, but I am always surprised to see it, kinda like....like it's an alien in the sky, a UFO or something, like oh my goodness what is that up there? Oh yes, the moon. Why, Hello Moon!

{Happy Birthday Becky!}

{LOVE Birds ~Jessica + Stan's Engagement Session}

Spring had popped like a baby chick out of an egg the day that Becky and I met up with Jessica and Stan for their engagement session. The weekend before I had gone scouting for locations for their engagement session and it was a dreary, gray day with clouds and rain, which of course in Arizona you have to be pretty happy to have. Because a couple days later when we met them, the skies were super bright blue and blossoms were starting to appear on the trees. 

Jessica had found our blog when searching for wedding photographers and really like some of our "vintage" photographs that we had created when we were doing a fun photo shoot with some of our photographer friends. She thought that our style would work well for the DIY style of wedding that she was creating. The theme for her wedding was Love Birds and if you scroll down you can see how birds really showed up for her engagement shoot!

Jessica told me that the color for her wedding would be red and so I wanted to find red backgrounds for her images. I love finding out what colors brides are using for their weddings and then I try to incorporate those colors into the engagement shoot. Becky and I found an elevator with red walls when we were scouting around the main campus of Arizona State University. Jessica knew about the LOVE statue at Scottsdale Civic Center Park and wanted to start out the photo session there.

I love how they turned out! Jessica and Stan, your wedding is going to be as bright and beautiful and fun as you two are!

Update! They got married! To see more of Jessica and Stan,  click on these links ->
