Here is a peek at David and Mackenzie’s romantic Papago Park Engagement session in Phoenix Arizona.  They both grew up in Phoenix and it’s where they met and fell in love.  Their careers took them across the country together but what better place to have their wedding and engagement photos than in the city where they met.  Papago Park holds a special place in Mackenzie’s hart and she told us stories of going there when she was younger.  Its a beautiful and magical place at sunset and we are just dying over their amazing engagement session.  Take a look!

 

 

This destination snow engagement shoot for R+J has us yearning for another winter storm.  These two love birds recently got engaged while they were on a trip in Australia, and if that isn’t romantic I don’t know what is.  These avid travelers wanted a fun and unique engagement shoot to fit their personalities and with an approaching winter storm we figured the local mountains with fresh snow would be a great idea for their engagement photos.  We commandeered ourselves a little cabin for the weekend and woke up on a Saturday morning to a true winter wonderland, with the snow shimmering and sparkling in the sun.  When the light was just right we headed out past the town of Prescott and up into the hills.  We found a campground closed for winter with fields of untouched snow and groves of spectacular forest just perfect for engagement photos.  R and J were armed with hot chocolate, blankets and a vintage sled while we armed ourselves with cameras.  Off into the snow we went.

After a fun afternoon in snow with Aniket and Melissa we headed down the road for their Mammoth Village engagement photos.  One of the cutest places in Mammoth year round is The Village.  But in the winter time it is just magical.  The christmas lights twinkle and you can see your breath on the chilly air. We just loved wandering The Village with Aniket and Melissa finding cozy seats for them to cuddle up on and views to dazzle the eye.  These two love birds are just so much fun!Mammoth Village Engagement photosMammoth Village Engagement photosfun winter engagement photosfun winter engagement photosMammoth Village Engagement photosMammoth Village Engagement photosMammoth Village Engagement photoswinter mammoth engagement shootwinter pinecone engagement photomammoth engagement shootMammoth Village Engagement photos_11mammoth engagement shootwinter mammoth engagement shootwinter mammoth engagement shootmammoth engagement shootwinter mammoth engagement shootMammoth Village Engagement photos_17

Aniket and Melissa had the cutest snow engagement shoot up in Mammoth California.  They arrived with a well styled wardrobe for their engagement photos and we just couldn’t wait to get into the snow.  We found a beautiful forest with pristine white snow half way up to the Mammoth Lodge.  We kept calling it our Pinterest snow because it was untouched and perfect.  They brought a plaid blanket to wrap up in and stay warm after they had a snowball fight.   It was great traipsing through the wilderness with Aniket and Melissa, they are just such a cute couple.  Always holding hands and smiling at one another.  They just made our job so easy!  This was a really fun engagement shoot with a really fun couple! We can’t wait to share more from the second half of their shoot in Mammoth Village.
