We immediately knew this view was worth waking up early and driving in the dark. But first, let’s back up. ππ […]

ARIZONA. One of my favorite places on Earth. I love the southwest, saguaro cacti, bright sunlight, desert mountains, all of it. Traveling across the country to photograph couples in incredible landscapes is a DREAM JOB. (Yes, that deserves to be in all caps, bold, and italics.) Lindsey & Jack’s adventurous photo session was way too […]
