Rachelle & Jordan: wedding

Rachelle and Jordan were married yesterday. Their ceremony and reception was at Rachelle's parents home and it was absolutely stunning. Rachelle and Jordan did much of the work themselves and everything felt so personal and inviting. I feel so honored to have been a part of it :)

Getting ready:

Rachelle's entire family was so much fun and so welcoming. They made me feel like a part of the family. Here's her grandma. Loved her!

I love this picture of Rachelle getting ready and you can see a photograph of her great-grandma in the background.

Rachelles "to-die-for", "so-her" shoes:

Stunning bride:
A few touch-ups before the ceremony. And once again, thank you to Celestial who (as usual) did an amazing job with Rachelle's make-up:

Rachelle's grandma was their officiant:

A few portraits...

... and a lot more fun!

Rachelle and Jordan, thank you so much for being so thoughtful. It was so much fun being a part of your wedding and I truly hope you love these images for many years to come.

Opie and Cleo

Oh yeah, and Gary and Amy too...








This photoshoot was all about Cleo. She's getting older and Amy and Gary wanted to make sure they had some portraits of her. Isn't she the cutest?
I do have to say that even though Cleo was the main reason for the shoot, Opie was definitely the rockstar of the day. Such a poser:



Amy and Gary, it was sooo nice to meet you. You guys are so fun! I hope you love these and let me know what Opie and Cleo think of them :)

Candace

Earlier today I shot Candace's senior portraits and we had so much fun!

Candace is such a sweetheart. She's really into photography and wanted some "cute, girly, frilly, pictures as well as some graffiti backgrounds" and I think we totally rocked it! We still have one more part to her "Totally You" session and I can't wait to spend some more time with you and your family, Candace!

Yes, I know your hair is a little out of place, but I still LOVE this picture! :)

Once again, Celestial Williams did an amazing job with make-up. Thanks, Celestial!

Jodi Hatfield did Candace's hair and you can find all the cute outfits Candace is wearing at Blossom in downtown Mesa.
