Different Pointe of View - Yotam and Samara

Yotam and Samara were married on 12/30/12 in Phoenix, Arizona. I knew we'd have a wonderful day as our vendors were Traci with the Different Pointe of View, Flowers by Jody, and the Shining Star Band with Jodi Light.  Three of my absolute favorites!!!

Since this was a Jewish wedding, the tradition is to have a special bride and groom "reveal" moment alone...

Dara and Sally at the Hilton Garden Inn

Dara and Sally were married on 11/24/12 at the Hilton Garden Inn Avondale, AZ. We received an urgent text and and email over Thanksgiving from them... "we have a problem with our photographer, can you come photograph us on Sat!" Since we were just going to take the weekend off anyway, we rushed out the door on Fri and did a creative walk through, had a planning meeting, and even ran the rehearsal. And so glad we were able to help as Dara and Sally are just a delight!!!

Janet and Christopher at Holy Spirit and the Desert Botanical Gardens

Janet and Christopher were married at Holy Spirit Church on 11/17/12, and their beautiful reception was at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix, Arizona. I was so honored to be back at Holy Spirit Church, especially since Janet's Dad is the Deacon and they picked me as their photographer!

It's so wonderful when the bride comes out of her dressing room, and Dad is the first guy to see her...

...and I love the Desert Botanical Gardens!

Courtney and Joe at the Royal Palms

Courtney and Joe were married at her family's beautiful home in Phoenix, AZ on 11/3/12. Their special pre-ceremony and first look pictures were at the Royal Palms. I was so honored to be their photographer as I had photographed her sister's wedding 8 years ago, and was thrilled to be asked back and get to see everyone again.

Great shoozies...

 How to fit in 10 gorgeous bridesmaids? Do a creative walk through the day before!

Courtenay and Joe asked to see each other before hand, and I helped make it a very private and special time for them...

 What an awesome night time backyard outdoor reception...

 ...and fabulous hug during the father-daughter dance.

 Elvis rocked the house!!!
