TRISHA & SCOTT | JUST MARRIED pt II

Trisha and Scott were married in beautiful Riviera Maya, Mexico! I was so honored and excited to photograph their beautiful, intimate destination wedding. You can check out their wedding pictures here. (Yes, their wedding was back in February and I am quite late with this post.) I blogged some of the film from their Just Married session, but I neglected to publish “part II.” So, here it is. Better late than never. I hope you enjoy- makes me miss Mexico!

While, I was in Vegas, in addition to coordinating a shoot, I also got to participate in one! My fabulous roomie, Amy (for two years in a row!) organized an amazing shoot with a beautiful couple in Pahrump, Nevada. Jessica and Tony are engaged in real life, and are so obviously in love; it was so awesome having them as models. Thanks to everyone involved!

BRITTANI & GIO | NELSON, NEVADA

While I was in Las Vegas, Nevada for WPPI, I wanted to exercise my creativity and utilize the change of landscape by styling a shoot! I hired models, bought a gown, had fun picking out accessories and attire and organized a group of 8 of my photographer friends for a group shoot in the desert. It’s always fun to do group shoots because it’s a great way to connect with other photographers and learn from each other! You may recognize the groom- I met him last fall while at the Jose Villa/Gene Higa workshop in Tuscany, Italy. You can see some of the photos here & here. Gio flew all the way from Italy for WPPI and graciously modeled for us. Lots of people contributed to this shoot and I want to recognize their hard work and effort! Seriously, we had a dream team!

I have to give a BIG thank you to Catherine at Weeds Floral Design. I gave her about 5 adjectives and
complete creative freedom and she somehow crafted this beautiful bouquet. Absolutely love her work!
