I was approached by a friend at the school I work at to be the photographer for her wedding. My first thought was "I have NEVER shot a  wedding before...no way!!" After thinking about it for a few days, I decided to take on this challenge and make her wedding my very first wedding! Since that day, I have been very excited and have been doing all kinds of fun research. Then it hit me..... This means I ALSO have to do an ENGAGEMENT session????!!! Yikes!

Again, after a few days, I became increasingly excited for this too. Although my first love is the pictures of the cute kiddos cheesing it up, but my second favorite has come to be the love between a mommy and daddy. And, in this case, the love between two people that will take them through marriage and onto new things in life! I did some researching, went driving around Downtown Glendale in beautiful Arizona, and came up with these!!!

A beautiful couple, full of smiles and laughter,
