Tonya & Adam

Love is in the air!

Tonya and Adam are engaged! Photographing engaged couples is always so much fun. There is so much love, excitement, and joy between the two and the pictures always look so natural and not forced. It’s a thrill for us. Tonya and Adam were no different at all. You can see it all over both of their faces that they are ecstatic to be marrying one another and that they can’t wait! Set to marry this July in beautiful Utah, we had the pleasure of capturing their engagement as they announce to many family and friends that they are in fact, tying the knot!

This shoot was also unique in that Tonya and Adam both requested that their photos be taken in two places that are very special to them. Both places were locations of their first dates, places they still go to often, and ones that they love. Of course we thought this was the perfect idea because it completely speaks to who they are as a couple and as individuals. Our first stop was at Stingray’s Restaurant in Downtown Scottsdale. It fit them perfectly. After we snapped some shots at their favorite spot, we wandered down the streets a little bit, looking for other funky spots that fit their personalities as well. Scottsdale is such  a great place, full of energy- even in the morning! There’s so many hidden spots around corners and in alley ways that worked so well.

After our time in Scottsdale, we headed over towards Papago Park, where Tonya and Adam love hiking in the mornings together. As we hiked up together we all realized that none of us were wearing the right shoes, which made for an interesting ‘hike’ and lots of laughs on the way up. We had even more laughs in the way down! Ha! But we made it and we were so glad we did! The morning was slightly overcast and drizzled off and on, the view was exhilarating and Tonya and Adam looked amazing.

Congrats Tonya and Adam! We were privileged to be able to capture this exciting time in your life! We had a great time with you both and hope you truly love these pictures. We wish you a stress free engagement and a lifetime of happiness together!
