Classy Downtown + Desert Engagement

Black tie. White for the bride. Downtown Phoenix. What better way to celebrate their classy downtown + desert engagement session than by pulling out all the stops. Jaclyn and Ryan’s engagement session is probably one of my top three sessions to date. From their styling, to the love they share, everything was so perfect it was like straight out of a movie. These two will be getting married this April at the beautiful Superstition Manor in Mesa, Arizona and I can’t wait to celebrate them!

From the moment I met Jaclyn and started talking with her about their wedding day, it was an instant connection. It was like I had been missing a long lost friend. We clicked so easily. She had the perfect vision for her classy downtown + desert engagement session, and I knew I could bring it to life. From her stunning hair and makeup, down to the outfits they chose. Jaclyn could not decide which location she wanted for her engagement session, so we did two! Both a desert engagement and a downtown Phoenix engagement. From the rooftop popping champagne, down to the depths of the desert with giant saguaro cacti surrounding us. Her vision was a complete dream.

These two met the modern day love story way, online. With Ryan being stationed here in the military and Jaclyn just getting out of a relationship and moving to Arizona to start over. These two were made for one another and the universe knew it and brought them together. The way Ryan looks at Jaclyn, and the way Jaclyns sweet words to her future husband roll off her tongue. It truly was such a beautiful thing to see. With only a few more months to go before these two tie the knot at Superstition Manor in Mesa (which is where I got married!), I can’t wait to see the beauty we create on their wedding day as they start this new journey of marriage.
