Patricia and Keith had the kind of wedding day that just felt right from the start. No stress. No rushing. Just an amazing group of people, a private venue in Paradise Valley, and two people who clearly couldn’t wait to get married. As a Scottsdale wedding photographer, that combo always makes me excited to start clicking the shutter.

The weather was perfect (ableit it a little hot since we’re in Arizona) for their wedding day, and all the details came together perfectly. The venue was a private home nestled in a quiet Paradise Valley neighborhood, that looked like a tropical resort, complete with a large pool with a swim-up bar, cabanas, water slide, and basketball court. It had tons of green space and had the perfect architecture to complement the style of wedding.

I started the day off shooting some images of Patricia getting ready with her Maid of Honor and family and friends, and capturing details shots (jewelry, shoes, rings, invitations, etc). Once we were done with details and getting ready shots of Patricia, it was almost time for the ceremony.  I captured all the details of the ceremony, including Patricia making her bold entrance accompanied by her brothers, and Keith’s excitement for seeing her for the first time. After the ceremony, it was time for family and wedding party photos before they made their grand entrance and first dance. From there, it was photos of speeches and kind words by family/friends, cake cutting, bouquet and garter toss, and some dancing to start the party. My time was done and they could focus on partying with family and friends.
