Hacienda del Sol Winter Wedding~Tucson, Arizona

So, it has been a while since I posted photographs on my blog; the busy fall and winter season took over!

Nevertheless, Carlie and Steven's small, intimate, and romantic wedding at Hacienda del Sol inspired me to share...

As I left the wedding and headed home, I was reminded of why Tucson is such a beautiful and amazing place to live and work...

Woman's Portrait Session- Tucson, AZ

I love it when a woman is willing to step out of the "safe" portrait zone and wants to create something special for herself.  The even more amazing part is she was willing to meet me at the near crack of dawn in order to do it!  In addition, I think she is living proof that no particular age owns the market on beauty, even at 6 a.m.!

Baby Photo Session- Tucson, Arizona

Little Monica's mommy wanted to celebrate her first birthday, on her birthday with a fun photo session.  This has to be one of the happiest one-year-olds I've ever photographed, and I as able to capture SO many images of this little one.

Ritz Carlton Dove Mountain Wedding

I cannot count the times I feel so incredibly blessed to do what I do, and being chosen by Lindsay and Patrick to photograph their wedding was truly an honor!  It was a very intimate gathering, and the day was absoutely perfect.  Having an amazing backdrop such as the newly opened Ritz Carlton Dove Mountain combined with the sonoran desert just added to the aesthetic.
