This week I got to hang out in Arizona for a couple of days. I have a couple that met while attending the University of Arizona in Tuscon. So that’s where their engagement session took place.

This is one of the oldest buildings on the campus. This building was used in the movie Revenge of The Nerds.

This is a funny cactus.

A wedding I’ve been waanting to blog for sometime. I shot Nasim’s sister Sahar’s wedding a few years ago. Now it was Nasim’s turn to walk down the isle. Nasim has such a great family. It has been great getting to know them over the last couple of years.

Mom was all smiles watching Nasin get ready.

Nasim with her sister Sahar. How lucky am I to have shot both of their weddings.

The flower girl took off running down the isle right into the grooms arms

So much great emotion during the ceremony. I love the father daughter moments.

Here she comes

I love when the groom gets emotional watching their bride come down the aisle.

I’ve been looking forward to this wedding for sometime. Angela’s sister is a longtime friend of mine. That is how I met Angela. Angela actually worked at my studio in the past. I was so happy when she first called me to tell me she was getting married. She was so excited.
It was a great day. All her friends and family are so great.

The beautiful bride!

Angela with her sister and one of my best friends Kristin.

Angela loves taking pictures.

I was a lucky guy getting to hang out with all these beautiful bridesmaids!

Time for the ceremony. Which was done by the famous Don Johnson. I always say Don is the best. He really brings out all the emotions in every ceremony. He books up fast. So don’t hesitate to call him.

Dave was fighting back the tears. I love that.

The cute flower girl coming back down the isle with mom.

This litltle guy was tough to get a smile out of. I know mom will like this big smile.

Back to the bridesmaids

This little guy is looking good hanging out with mom

I wonder what he said?

Time to call it a day.

This wedding almost had to find a new location. It took place at The Pala Mesa Country Club in Fallbrook. It was just about a week after the fires. The fires burned right down to the edge of the property.
It turned out to be a beautiful day for the couple.
Beautiful Flowers and decor by the always amazing Square Root.

Another great October wedding. This one took place at The South Coast Winery in Temecula. It was my first time shooting at this location. Leah Bennett the sales & catering manager was great to work with. Next time your in Temecula be sure to stop by the winery for a tasting.
Stephanie had a smile on her face all day as you will see.

I love these first sight moments.

I love these father daughter moments

During the ceremony we had a few raindrops. We still had great moments.

In fact we had a rainbow pop out at the very end of the ceremony.

I just shot Michelle’s sisters wedding in Sept. That’s where I met Michelle. Now I get to shoot Michelle’s wedding next year. Here we are at the beach doing the engagement pictures. They were such troopers. They had no hesitation getting wet. As you will see they really took a beating by a couple of waves.
i always start off with a couple dry shots.

Time to get wet!

Doesn’t this look like fun.

I still see smiles on their face.

Another October wedding.
I have such a great time with Erin & Tyler. It all started when I got to do their engagement session in Montana. Tyler grew up in Montana. Their new home is now in Montana.
Check out the enagement session movie.

Now for the wedding. It took place at The Turnip Rose. As always another perfect event. It was a great day. Videography for the day was done by good friend Dan with PLUG VIDEO

It wsa going to be dark after the ceremony. So they decided to see each other before the ceremony. As I always say Ilove these moments.

Mother of the bride seemed to enjoy the moment also.

Erin was sent my way by another one of my past brides. Thanks for the referral. I love the fact that at almost every wedding I shoot I have one of my past brides or their friends or family at the wedding. It is such a great feeling.

I’m so happy the couple decided to see each other before the ceremony. We would of missed out on all these great images if they didn’t.

I really love this shot.

The first dance.
