Together At Last ~ Brianna and David

After first meeting and getting to know each other in New York City, Brianna and David later endured a long distance relationship between Los Angeles, New York City, and Washington, D.C. After a marriage proposal, and a lot of planning, they finally found themselves in Sedona on a beautiful spring day, surrounded by gorgeous red rock views and loved ones, as they tied the knot :)

You may have seen Brianna on a popular cable news network. She's a CNN congressional correspondent, which keeps her close to Washington, D.C. You probably have not seen David, but his work behind the scenes as a former Public Relations VIP for MTV undoubtedly contributed to it maintaining its status as an icon of pop culture.

Their wedding was not only symbolic of Brianna and David finally being able to be together in Washington, D.C., but probably most importantly served as a coming together of two amazing individuals and families through marriage. We have to say, Brianna and David make a great couple! We're so happy for you both!!

Love these candid moments Andrew got of Bri giving Dave's ring to his sister for safe keeping... super cute!



Moments before they saw each other for the first time on their wedding day!!!







After being dropped of at the trailhead, the guests had a little walk with big views to take before getting t0 the dramatic ceremony site.











We always ask our clients what is the *most* important image they would like captured on their wedding day and they said the kiss soooooo... here it is! Andrew was in "tight" and I got the overall shot with the views! You gotta love having a husband and wife team to document the wedding!!



Yay!!! Just married!!





Bri and Dave incorporated an old world Mexican feel into their wedding, with the gorgeous Tlaquepaque Village, delicious Mexican food, and a piñata filled with candies!

Pretty details from this super colorful wedding... from fun yellow parasols to a lovely "cigar" cake. Instead of table numbers, we liked how Bri and Dave used old post cards of Arizona cities. The Jerome post card, in particular, is special as that is where they found their fabulous band, Smoot Mahooty, in a biker bar. The band did an amazing job, especially since they had never played at a wedding! When they asked Smoot Mahooty to play at their wedding they said, "We're not a wedding band," and Bri and Dave said perfect!



Another really nice shot from Andrew during the mother/son, father/daughter dance. I love how it's layered and you can see Bri and her Dad dancing in the background. The expression on Dave's mom's face is just so sweet!
