Weddings Greg & Megan

Greg and Megan were married on Saturday at the Desert Botanical Gardens on an absolutely picture-perfect day in Arizona. This couple was so laid back and fun to work with. They both have amazing family and friends and the whole day was one big celebration full of plenty of laughs. In addition to working with amazing clients, I also got to work with an amazing team of vendors. Jamie Delaine came along to second shoot with me and knocked it out of the park. A few of the images I am going to share here are hers--thanks Jamie! Greg and Megan's wedding was a huge success thanks to this team: Consultant: Victoria Canada Weddings & Events Wedding Dress & Veil: Destiny's Bride Suits: Mr. Formal Make-up: Corinna Cooke Florist: Table Tops Etc.

Greg and Megan saw each other before the ceremony which gave us plenty of time to walk around the gardens and take some fun portraits. This is Megan as she walks up to meet her groom:

The Botanical Gardens has a special exhibit taking place this spring called Chihuly: The Nature of Glass. Megan loved the brightly colored glass sculptures throughout the park so I tried to incorporate them in the photography as much as possible:

Megan's dress, besides being absolutely stunning, was extra-cool because it had POCKETS!! So fun. Here's both Greg and Megan working their pockets:

More pocket-modeling:

A few more favorite portraits:

The details at this wedding were killer. As you know, I'm a fan of red. So I was in heaven. But I also loved how they paired it with chocolate brown and bright green moss accents:

Megan's dad walked her down the aisle:

I love this shot of Greg's parents and relatives during the ceremony:

Megan's sister Jessica was the maid of honor:

Megan couldn't have been more excited to get Greg's ring on his finger:

Greg showed off his new ring to his grandma during the ceremony after giving her a rose:

Married!

The unbelievable reception decor:

A favorite shot during the toasts:

And one last shot of some guests enjoying the s'mores bar out on the back patio:
