Phoenix, Arizona Couples Session at Papago Buttes

Phoenix Couples Photographer


Say hello to Emily & Alfie! I got to capture these two lovers on a not-so-typical overcast day in the Valley. We ventured over to Papago Buttes for a small hike & lots of laughing & close-up kisses. These two have one of my favorite love stories. They met in October of 2017 & instantly connected. After a year of doing long distance, Emily made the move to Phoenix. And in her words, “I knew that he was gonna be the one for me. Forever.” Now another year later, they have a house out here in Arizona & the cutest pup, Ozzie. The way they both put it was, “we’re both more in love than we ever thought was possible.” And this is exactly the type of love I dream about documenting.

I’m going to let you all in on a secret & I hope this isn’t cheesy, but you don’t have to be models to get your photos taken. You don’t need to know anything about posing, locations, or really even what to wear. That is what I’m here for. I know that being in front of a camera can be intimidating, as someone who spends most their time behind theirs - I get it. It’s easy to feel awkward & think you don’t know what to do.

Let me walk you through what the whole process of booking & having a session with me is like:

1.Start by filling out my contact form to get in touch. We’ll talk about what you’re looking for in a photographer, what you dream about for your photos & any other ideas or questions you may have.

2. After we’ve picked a date & you’re booked - I’ll send you a guide that has all of my favorite locations around Phoenix & the rest of Arizona. I’ll help you narrow down your decisions & share you on full galleries from locations so you can get a feel for the area. We can also talk about color schemes that go best with the area & decide what look feels the most like the two of you.

3. Now it’s time for your session! We’ll spend time exploring the location & stopping a lot along the way. I’ll give you two prompts & just capture the both of you interacting & loving on each other. You’ll probably catch me saying, “oh heck yes” & “yes! you two are so cute” or something along those lines a lot. And I promise I’m not just saying that - I’m not the type to go over the top. I’ll make sure you both are comfortable & just have a good time hanging out with each other.

4. Then you get to relive & look back on these memories over & over. I’ll send you a preview from the day within a week just so you don’t have to wait too long. Your full gallery will be ready in 4-6 weeks & then the photos are yours! Whether this is celebrating your engagement or just photos of you two for no particular reason, you’ll have these photos forever to remember this moment in time.
