from the photographer... "I had such a beautiful time at The Royal Palms Resort in Scottsdale photographing this amazing styled shoot! As luck would have it, it rained causing all of the vendors to move everything they had just set up outside to inside. Of course, it happened about an hour before photography arrival- I'm sure there was major stress beforehand but when I got there it looked like this was planned all along. Everyone and everything came together perfectly despite the weather and made for some beautiful moody portraits and images. This real bride and groom didn't let the rain put a damper on anything either. Married for 7 years already, they were all smiles and full of love just like newlyweds would be! They also got to make s'mores at their very own s'mores bar. I couldn't get enough of the details from the day either. There was a full station of details for me to play with and set up my own shots, really putting my styling skills to the test. The grounds of The Royal Palms made for some beautiful additions to complement the couple and styling. I just LOVE the bougainvillea surrounding the resort! Last but not least, the bride and groom cut the cake, popped the champagne and ate their roasted s'mores with love!"
