Julie and Bryan are as real as they come! I just love them and am honored to have shot their Sedona engagement photos. The morning of their session, I flew into Phoenix and drove to Sedona. Thanks to Covid, we had to switch their location last minute due to some closures but they just rolled with the punches and made the absolute most of it. It was a whirlwind to say the least but nothing could take away from their joy and the gorgeous light and landscape that Arizona has to offer!

Julie and Bryan are so genuinely happy to be together and it shows even in the way they look at each other. I loved working with them because it was so fun to hear about their love story and what it’s looked like merging their families together. I shot their engagement photos the same week I launched my photographer workshop. Bryan made a point to comment on it and even remembered the name of my coaching business, which meant so much to me. They had taken the time to invest in me and I won’t ever forget that!

Arizona, and especially Sedona is seriously gorgeous! We shot mostly at Cathedral Rock with stunning landscapes and all the red rock magic! I remember Julie putting on hiking shoes with her long red dress and climbing faster than both Bryan and I. She really went for it! I adore that about her and my adventurous couples! Something about the dusty desert, golden light and other-worldly landscape gets me every time. Mix in some true love, a few butt grabs and lots snuggles and well, that’s just perfection! Julie and Bryan, thanks for inviting me on your greatest adventure yet – may it forever be as epic as the red rocks of Sedona!
