Xamie and Nate’s engagement photos at the University of New Mexico Main Campus in Albuquerque, New Mexico was truly fabulous! Exploring the UNM Campus and taking the cutest New Years Eve engagement photos of Xamie and Nate was the perfect way to end the decade! I love the beautiful teal dress Xamie chose for the photos and loved Nate’s outfits that perfectly paired with both of their looks! 

Natalie and Branden are the absolute cutest and I loved exploring through Casa Rondeña Winery in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, New Mexico to capture their incredible winter engagement photos. Natalie looked stunning in her mint blouse and jeans which balanced Branden’s sleek black long sleeve. I also loved the black dress with denim jacket and cowboy boots that Natalie chose for her next look. It looked great with Brandon’s maroon shirt! It was a little chilly outside, but they looked adorable snuggling up and sampling the wine made in house at Casa Rondeña Winery!

I was ecstatic when Aurora and Juan asked me to photograph their engagement sesh as well as their wedding day. I’ve photographed these cuties at several weddings I’ve photographed and I’ve been rooting for Aurora to get that proposal because we had both patiently waited years for our boo thangs to pop the question. Their outlook on life, passion for their careers, and love for one another is truly remarkable. They’re literally #couplegoals!..

Documenting love stories is awesome in itself, but when you get to photograph the love fest of two of your besties is IN-FREAKING-IBLE! I absolutely love Sam, Joey, and their sweetie pie baby girl, Brynn. They are so much fun to be around, can dance up a storm at Dirty Bourbon, and are the kindest, most loving people I have ever met. When they asked me to capture their engagement photos, I knew we had to do something different and special for their sesh…

Natalie and Boots had the perfect winter engagement outfit inspiration for these chilly sunrise engagement photos. 

Tamara + Michael’s love story began when they met in college at the University of New Mexico. They both happened to be in the same math class.

Mike’s idea of flirting was putting a red laser on her face during lecture…

In addition, Stephanie Yardman Floral Design designed the most dazzling showstopper of a bouquet for this incredible shoot. Alyssa was so excited when she saw the bouquet because sunflowers are her fave! <3

For as long as I’ve known Carra, I’ve known of her grand love for adventure and her love for her family. So when she told me I would be capturing the love that her and Luke (her fiance) have for one another at her family’s property in scenic Arroyo Seco, New Mexico I was seriously SO STOKED.
