Recently headed up to Flagstaff for a fall family session and boy were the aspen trees poppin’ with color! Although, it did feel like everyone in Phoenix had the same collective idea, lol. But in the end, we were able to find a quiet spot on the side of Humphreys Peak to roam around.
Absolutely adore this family, here are a few of my favorite images from the day.
This beautiful wedding that culminated at the Boulders Resort really hit me with all the feels. Seeing Cody & Amanda enjoy their amazing wedding day and also take special care to honor the memory of Cody’s recently passed father was quite the emotional journey for me. As someone who also lost a father way too soon, I could feel all the emotions bubbling up with Cody in those moments of remembrance that were shared during the reception. What a joy it was to be a small part of this amazing wedding.
Here are some of my favorite moments from their wedding day.
This particular spot on the Mogollon Rim holds special significance to Brian and Alana as it was the exact location where they had their first-ever camping trip together. And what a spot it was! The views were absolutely stunning, and the weather was gloriously mild. It was a welcome change of pace from the ongoing heat in Phoenix.
Surrounded by just a few close friends and family, Brian & Alana’s wedding was filled with laughter, intimate moments, and lots of Frank, their sweet dog who was dressed to the nines. I loved seeing the joy and support these two families had – not only for Alana and Brian but for each other as well. That and the combination of the stunning beauty of this Mogollon Rim wedding made for a day I won’t forget.

Eric & Jenna had their wedding at one of my favorite places in the valley, the Desert Botanical Gardens. Absolutely loved everything about this beautiful day!

With its rugged beauty and towering cacti, the Arizona desert was the perfect setting for Cody and Amanda’s engagement session. (The size of the saguaro cactus surprised me the most when I moved to Phoenix from the midwest. It is absolutely bonkers how tall they can grow)! After hiking amongst those majestic giants, we wrapped up the session at sunset on a small ridge overlooking a beautiful lake next to Cody’s other baby. : ) Congratulations Cody & Amanda! Can’t wait for your wedding!
Love this wedding at The Boulders Resort.
