M & M decided to get married in Santa Fe many months before their date, but never could have guessed Feb. 2nd would see one of the harshest snow storms this corner of New Mexico had experienced in years!

They were determined to enjoy the ride, and these two had the happiest/most memorable wedding day!

This sunrise session at Artist Point—near the Mount Baker Ski Area outside Bellingham, Washington—was absolutely perfect! The skies were unusually clear, the alpenglow on-point, and the dogs were cute as can be. This stunning family in one of the most beautiful places on earth resulted in pictures truly spectacular!

E & B chose White Sands for their engagement photo session because it was actually their first choice of a wedding venue. But, when they realized getting all their favorite humans together in the remote park would prove too difficult, they still wanted to honor their love of wild desert spaces.
