AMAELIA + ADAM | desert engagement session

Amaelia + Adams fun, playful desert session at Superstition Mountains in Arizona has been, BY FAR, the most difficult sessions i’ve ever endeavoured. NOT because of this gorgeous couple, not because of the Arizona heat, not because I forgot my camera… Because I didn’t actually photograph it!! YEP! You heard me, right!

If you don’t follow me on Instagram, you may not know that, originally I was supposed to photograph Mae + Adam in March. Well, I think we all know what ruined my travel plans… Yep, right again! COVID. We debated for a couple months, tried waiting it out, but with so much uncertainty we decided we had to go with plan B. ENTER @SYDRICHPHOTO. This girl was my saving grace for so many reasons.

1. During a time where no photographer is allowed to photograph as a “non-essential” business, it was hard finding someone who was available + willing.

2. I had to find someone I TRUSTED + that is HARD. As a photographer, when you choose the people you want to work with there are certain guidelines you have to follow in order to keep your brand + aesthetic for the sake of consistency.

I won’t get too blabby about the whole thing but we are forever grateful for Sydney + her husband for saving me during these tough times. Forever grateful. NOW! Enjoy these gorgeous images + this adorable couple! November 14th, 2020 couldn’t come soon enough!
