This Albuquerque wedding happened at the best place for Adrienne and Jacob – home. Crystal chandeliers, pueblo-style stucco interiors, and sheer lace curtains set the tone for Adrienne as she prepared to marry the love of her life. Diamonds, pearls, and class could be seen dressing Adrienne from the moment she applied her red lipstick until the autumn sun set on this fateful day. As wedding photographers, we are touched to capture a bride’s most intimate moments; Adrienne’s father gave the classic two thumbs of approval and her mother offered endless love and hugs for her beautiful daughter. The couple’s first look was accented with flagstone and evergreen embraces. The best part about this first meeting was that it was somewhere they could be alone together, and they couldn’t keep their hands off each other! The magic did not leave Jacob’s eyes as he watched his gracious, welcoming, and happy bride walk down the isle of this intimate wedding. Together, Adrienne and her father smiled and waved at their guests, who all spilled support and affection for the newlyweds. Though this southwestern wedding was kissed by the Albuquerque sepia-toned sun, the wondrous contrast of red and white roses against evergreen and tawny backdrop did not leave this wedding wanting for color. The newlyweds snuck away post ceremony for some sun-kissed moments on this beautiful October evening. The sunbeams trickled through the air as a slight autumn breeze lifted Adrienne’s veil. Jacob savored each moment with his bride, ready to live happily ever after.

We are so happy Brenda and Scott chose us to be their wedding photographers. The love and support we felt for this couple made our own hearts ache with joy and awe. Brenda was a sweetheart with her long veil and delicate lace. She was a very gracious and welcoming bride—smiling at each wedding guest. She truly felt like everything had fallen into place. She got to marry the man of her dreams and was able to completely immerse herself in all that was going on. The lovely couple performed a feet washing ceremony – the ultimate symbol of selfless love and humility. Scott couldn’t take his eyes off his beautiful bride, and if you look closely at the wedding photos below, you’ll notice the Santa Fe wilderness even appears to brighten and encourage this tender couple’s union. This wedding’s theme was beautiful, delicate details. And when the sun started to bend towards the horizon, Brenda put on her tiara and grabbed her now husband to steal a few quiet dances in the dark.

New Mexico is made for engagement sessions, no question about it! This sweet couple traveled all the way from Kentucky to have their photos done in the most stunning of locations. It was such an amazing evening, even the huge winds didn’t stop this couple from having such a romantic and epic photo session. Amita and John, thank you for choosing us to capture this time in New Mexico and your love… it was a dream for us to photograph!
