Save the Date


Save the Date, originally uploaded by swstyles.

I have done a couple of Save the Date cards in the past. This wedding isn't until October but Carmen wanted her cards out ASAP. I hope she likes them.

Josh and April Engagement Sitting

Josh and April's engagement sitting was the last of what I would call a crazy week and a half. Within the course of 10 days, I had 8 engagement sittings. Talk about love for the job, I shot half without an assistant and I became very skilled at quick light setups.

April is as stunning in person as Josh is handsome. They were a great couple to work with and I can't wait for their wedding day. Congratulations Josh and April!!!

Kyrsten Senior Pictures

Kyrsten and her parents came out a couple of Sundays ago to have some senior pictures taken. We ended up at Verrado in Buckeye which I have come to really, really love. Every time I take pictures there, I seem to find something that I have never seen before. Thanks to Kyrsten for being a super sport by trying new things.

Enjoy the pics!!!

Marcela's Pre Quinceanera Shoot

I met Marcela and her family last year as they were searching the market for a Quinceanera photographer. At the time, I hadn't really done many Quinceaneras and wanted to book a few just to get some more experience with them. As it turns out, Quinceaneras can be and usually are more difficult than weddings. You are dealing sometimes with upwards of 15 kids ranging in age from 8 - 18. If you approach a Quinceanera with care, you will get out of it what you put into it. Marcela and her family were the right clients have been great through the whole process. The images below were taken this evening and this would be our second sitting. Our last sitting took place around the summer of last year. It was a bit of a test which went very well and Marcela came ready to pose tonight.

Enjoy the pics!!!

Saul and Patty

Talk about quick weddings...
Saul and Patty put their wedding together in under a week. They weren't looking for engagement pictures but as always, I insisted that they get one. We ended up shooting at the Glendale Sports Complex near the AMC Theatres. Saul served in the armed forces in Iraq and just returned from his tour of duty. Congrats Guys!!!!\
