I got the sweetest email from Andrea after the last post, saying that I made her cry at work. I told her not to worry; there was a dang good chance I’d make it up to her by crying at her wedding.
Honestly, I probably will. Yes, I’m the worse kind of cliche – the wedding photographer who will cry at your wedding.
Sometimes I get misty during the first look, other times I’m overcome by the emotion behind the vows. If you, your mother or your cousin Eileen happen to cry – at any point and for any reason – I’m almost certainly a goner. There is almost no chance I’ll make it through the father-daughter dance dry eyed (I admit it; I have a soft spot for Butterfly Kisses). Seriously, I’m a huge sap and I’m not afraid to admit it. However, I have persevered and I can now shoot straight through a veil of tears (patting myself on the back for this one – it’s not easy).
Andrea and Andrew – I hereby promise not to turn into a blubbering mess on your big day. I’ll keep it together. But when a couple loves each other with emotion this sweet and true – it’s awfully hard not to feel it too.

We headed to my favorite junkyard to find some urban texture. There’s nothing like rusted metal to get my muse inspired.
I love these next ones so much because they clearly show just how much fun these two are!
And then these ones give you a hint of their romantic side….
Eegads, isn’t this building amazing? Every time I go to this place I find something new.
This one has a total silver screen, movie star look to me…the next Bogie and Bacall…
Andrew went back to the car to change, so I took the opportunity to snap these pics of the lovely Andrea. Honestly folks, next to no editing on these – her skin really is that perfect!
We even found some bales of hay – and Andrea had the perfect shirt to get a little country!
The way every good fairy tale photoshoot ends – they walk off into the sunset together….
Okay, you see now why these two deserved two whole blog posts?!
FYI: A2 are getting married at the amazing North Scottsdale wedding venue Sassi. I got to check it out with the couple a few weeks back when they went for their tasting appointment, and it is going to be truly stunning. So many possibilities for amazing photographs – I get giddy just thinking about it! If you are looking for a great wedding venue in Phoenix, you should definitely add Sassi to your list.
