It’s not lost on us that when we are asked to capture a couple’s wedding, we are invited into their family for the day. To capture moments that will become a part of their story . . . their family legacy. It’s truly an incredible gift. And when we get to do it TWICE for the same family, that is so very special. We got to walk alongside Katie & Steven’s on their special day in 2016 so when her sister Marie reached out we were beyond thrilled to be a part of their “inner circle” once again.

Marie & Jared said “I do” at one of our absolute favorite places in Arizona, the beautiful Desert Botanical Garden. It was a day filled with joy, love, and natural beauty. They are such warm and loving people with an amazing bond. AND we were incredibly impressed to learn that not only is Marie a literal “rocket scientist” by trade, she trained for and competed in American Ninja Warrior in 2021! She’s a literal NINJA guys! How cool is that? Working alongside the amazing team at NJ Event Collective made their day even sweeter. Every detail was carefully curated to compliment this special couple and every aspect of the day was executed flawlessly. We loved that they planned for lots of time to walk through the grounds, capturing amazing portraits. As the sun set over the garden, the reception came alive with music, laughter, and dancing. It was a day we will look back on with joy and hope the images we captured will allow them to do the same. Please enjoy a few of our favorite moments:
