Nate and I (Tim S) photographed a wedding at Montelucia Resort for the first time yesterday. It is one of the newest resorts in Scottsdale, actually Paradise Valley, and is a picture perfect location for a wedding and reception. There is a beautiful chapel and bride’s room that was designed specifically for weddings. Other than the 108 degree weather, their day couldn’t have been any better. Christina and Dan are such a great couple and because everyone was so relaxed, we were able to capture some great moments throughout their day. (By the way, if you are planning a wedding in this area during June, July or August, think about hiring someone to follow you around with a portable air conditioner to keep you cool.) Luckily, they were handing out cooled, wet cloths for everyone to put on their faces and necks – awesome. There is an amazing spa at Montelucia where we stopped for a few photos of the couple. We walked up the huge spiral staircase, taking pictures of them along the way, finishing on the top where Nate took the crazy photo with the cool flare. We can’t wait to shoot another wedding at this sweet venue.

Nate started taking pictures of us when we are shooting and it’s usually while I am squatting in some stupid pose trying to get the shot, at least I was on the ground for this one…

And I got him back when we were waiting for the Ceremony to begin…
