A Camping themed engagement session by Phoenix Wedding Photographers Ryan & Denise

Cheyenne and Christian met in high school, sharing bags of flaming hot Cheetos from the vending machine as they walked to their next class. He made her mixed CDs. She laughed at his jokes. Their relationship was filled with the things that make up the quintessential elements of the high school experience – a bit of romance and a lot of friendship. A deep bond was formed between them and continued to grow as they graduated and moved on into college life. Eventually, they officially became a couple, though in many ways it felt like they had been one all along. Who better to join your life with than someone who had been there all along? Walking side by side, as they journeyed into becoming adults. Unable to imagine life without the other one being a part of it.

There’s something very special about love stories that begin when two people are young. Cheyenne and Christian are the perfect example. When they’re together, it’s very clear that they are both right where they belong . . . home. We loved every moment of our time with these guys! One of their favorite pastimes is going camping together so they brought along some of their gear for some fun photo ops. It may have been 117 degrees during their session (literally), but they didn’t let the extreme temps keep them from getting cozy along the banks of the Salt River. Here are some of our favorites from their session:
