pretty in { pink } wedding at tlaquepaque

i just realized i never blogged this cute photo shoot i did early last year with margaret at van damme weddings.... i ran into these images while editing and thought it'd be fun to post. margaret is always so on top of super chic and adorable details to incorporate into weddings.

the beautiful letterpress paper products were created by the aerialist press ... check out their site too... they have adorable remarkably affordable letterpress wedding invitations!

frank and heather's real engagement

this time of year, a ton of couples are getting engaged and planning their arizona weddings... but not many girls have a boyfriend thoughtful enough to think of every detail including having a pro photographer to document the surprise proposal!!!

a few weeks back i got a phone call from frank saying that he would be proposing!!! ... you could just tell from talking with him how super excited he was... he was picking up the engagement ring he had custom designed and he was wanting to pop the question at one of their favorite wineries in arizona... page springs cellars...

we decided that i'd be a photographer shooting "stock photography for the winery" and happen upon them and ask them to pose for a photo for the vineyard ... and then he'd pop the question... which he did and ...

.... she said YES!

while the property didn't have the lush green vineyard frank and i were envisioning ... well because it was winter ;) ... there was however some beautiful frost on the fallen leaves. see if you can spot heather's ring in them... the ground was sparkling from the frost just as much as the diamonds were!

you two need a large print of the shot above so you can see the tears in franks eyes!! and plus heather, you look stunning!

thank you for giving me the opportunity to shoot my very first *real* engagement session! it was so exciting and we are so very happy for you two!! hey guys, how sweet is frank for setting this up with photos??! these images will be treasured for so many years! what very lucky girl heather is to have such a thoughtful ... fiance!

p.s. a huge thanks to amina at some like it classic wedding and event design it was so sweet of you to recommend us so highly! frank is super lucky to have you as one of his best friends ... i know their wedding will be in good hands and amazingly beautiful!
