When I first met Paulette and Christian, this Arizona wedding photographer fell in love with them right away! Between Paulette’s Mexican beauty and her love for Disney and Christian’s Bulgarian culture and sense of humor, they are just downright fantastic to spend time with! But what is most incredible about this pair is the undeniable love for their friends, family, and especially for each other.
Christian and Paulette met in 2018 when they both attended a music festival in Tempe, AZ. They were inseparable despite living in different cities (Christian lived in Flagstaff and Paulette lived in Scottsdale). Aw! And just three years later, Christian was down on one knee, asking Paulette to be his forever. I am so thankful for the opportunity I had to document their wedding day, and now I can’t wait to share all the highlights with you!
Paulette was absolutely glowing from the time she did her makeup to the moment she raced onto the dance floor to bust a move. And when she walked down the aisle in her Mariee Bridal gown, no one could take their eyes off her. Especially Christian. The way he held and kissed her hand during their ceremony made you believe in that Disney kind of happily ever after!
Christian and Paulette told me the thing they were most looking forward to seeing in their wedding gallery was a 1920’s car Paulette’s grandfather had been working on for years, as well as their dances with their parent and the modern boho vibe of their wedding. And I believe we captured exactly that! And as Paulette and Christian celebrated the best day of their lives with the people they loved most, I couldn’t help but share in their joy as I clicked away with my camera!
Thank you for treating us and making us feel like guests and family, for the delicious meals, and for one heck of a party!

If you’ve ever had a dog, you know they’re more than just pets—they’re family. They see you at your best and your worst and love you through it all. That was my sweet Chipis, my stubborn, adventurous, and fiercely loyal Shiba Inu. Saying goodbye to her this past month was one of the hardest things […]
During a vibrant photo session at Sweetwater Wetlands Park, the Latorre family, including twins and a younger brother, embraced the outdoors, allowing their natural interactions to shine through in every capture.
