There’s something so magical about a downtown Phoenix engagement session. I have done quite a few here lately, and they seem to be turning into some of my favorites. Sadie and Johnny wanted something outside of the typical desert Arizona engagement session vibe photos. They wanted something more relaxed and more true to them and their relationship. No better place than the hustle and bustle of downtown Phoenix!
I loved getting to know these two and their story. They started out as friends in high school, working at Johnny’s dads diner together. Soon that friendship became more and the rest is history! I joked with them that instead of doing a downtown Phoenix engagement session, we should have done a cute diner one where they met. However, I feel like this vibe truly fit them and their personalities. They were sent to me from one of my other couples Natalie and Matt. The absolute BEST thing any wedding photographer can get is a referral from their other engaged and married couples. I truly loved seeing Johnny and Sadies relationship with one another. They truly bloom around each other and I loved interacting with them and seeing just how playful and in love they are.
I am so excited for their wedding in March at The Croft in downtown. Another great way to incorporate their wedding into their engagement photos! Make sure you stay tuned for their wedding photos and blog to pop up. I can’t wait to celebrate the soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Rodakis. Peep the adorable jacket that Sadie’s sister made her for their photos!
