Christy and Josh were married this past Saturday at Firesky Resort in Scottsdale. They are a beautiful couple, with a quiet kindness about them. It was hard not to take lots and lots of pictures of Christy, who was just stunning in her gown. I told her she reminded me of old Hollywood glamour, and she really carried herself with such a sense of grace and calm. Christy and Josh did see each before the ceremony, which was great because it gave us time to get all of their photos done ahead of time, followed by their night time, candle-lit ceremony.
I also can't say enough about KT, the catering manager at Firesky. She is very on the ball and was terrific to work with and kept things running smoothly and efficiently. Couples getting married at Firesky are in very good hands!

I loved her gown!
Seriously? I mean, b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l. And love that yummy light!
And the handsome groom.
I loved this candid of her below. (And right after I took it, I had a first at a wedding - I tripped and fell since I had been walking backwards and slipped off the sidewalk! Oi vay. I was embarrassed, but fine. Luckily my camera and 24-70 lens was okay too!)
The first look.
I love this series of Christy. And how something Josh said made her laugh beautifully and naturally.
A formal of the bridal party. I usually show the more fun, less formal shots, but I kind of liked the classic feel of this one.
A sweet first dance moment.
Now I have to say that even before I found out we are having a boy, I've had several mother-son moments tear me up (as many father-daughter moments do for me as well), but the dance Josh shared with his Mom together really brought tears to my eyes. There were some very sweet moments between them.
Christy's dad had recorded a message to her before their dance and played it while they were walking out. It was very touching.
All the groomsmen got down on bended knee and serenaded Christy ala "Top Gun" style
Congratulations Christy and Josh! It was an honor to spend the day with you and your families capturing your wedding. I hope you are having fun in San Fran :)
And a special thanks to the adorable and great Cristi Owen for coming along to second shoot the wedding with me. I always love hanging with her and she has a few images on her blog as well.
