Sara and Chris

I don't know where to begin on this one! This wedding was different, fun, creative, and I was only able to narrow down my favorites to 40 shots! Sara is an amazing bride, she is sweet, gorgeous and what I call a 'hottie'. She wasn't paranoid about her dress like so many brides are, and she was all about the photos (my kind of bride!) Chris and his crew were easy to work with, even with all of their flasks! Chris gave me time away with him and Sara (without ANYONE else) which was great-- he understood that I needed one on one time to get some great portraits. As you go thru these photos, I will describe what you are about to see as you scroll. This wedding had unique happenings that I have never seen at a wedding before! Oh, the wedding ceremony and reception all took place at the Pointe Tapatio Cliffs on November 20th 2010.

Congrats to Chris and Sara! Can't wait for our Trash the Dress session in Sedona!

Sara decorated her shoes, and played around with the wording...


Now that is time management!








Now this next shot has an important person in it, but I won't tell you who he is until he appears again in 2 more shots...

The groom and his flask. All the guys had one...

Here is that mystery person-- he is our 'flower girl'!!!



They danced down the aisle...

The wedding party along with the 'flower girl'.







This next one has a special visitor to the reception...don't ask me why, but a 'bear' visited and interupted the best man's speech, just because.

I like it when brides and grooms dance close and like they are alone during their first dance.






Our bride opened the karaoke session with Sir Mix-A-Lot's "I Like Big Butts".

So we had an interesting flower girl, surprise bear, rapping bride, and one more thing...our grand finale is something I can't show you on my blog. Sara is using the shot for her thank you cards. Sooooo if you are a friend, family, or co-worker of Sara or Chris-- do NOT follow these instructions. If you do, it will ruin the surprise when you get your thank you card. If you want to see the last shots, go to my business FB page and it is posted there in my photo albums under Sara and Chris. While you are there, do me a favor and click on 'Like'-- thanks!

Kathryn and Tom

This blog post I am doing late at night and last minute, so that Kathyrn and Tom have some images over the holiday. Their wedding was November 13th. Their ceremony was at Valley Presbyterian, and reception was at Scottsdale Plaza Resort. Nice small intimate wedding, they actually got to mingle with each guest at the reception. I would tell more of a story, but it is now Thanksgiving (after midnight) and my eyes are getting dry and tired (monitors do that after hours on end.)

Congratulations Kathryn and Tom! I will be finishing up in the next week or so on the many hundreds of other images.
