Inspiration for a Downtown Phoenix, Arizona Elopement

Courtney and Spencer’s elevated Arizona elopement in Downtown Phoenix was nothing short of amazing. The weather in March was perfect with a gorgeous sunset that painted the city in a warm, welcoming light. I simply adored their elegant style and the fact that they chose to do things their way. They opted for a courthouse elopement, followed by a quick and intimate photoshoot, and a fancy staycation for just the two of them. It is always heartwarming to see a couple prioritize their love and desires. Their elopement was a beautiful expression of their love, and I felt so honored to be a part of it. The old courthouse venue added an extra touch of charm and intimacy to their special day. Overall, their elopement was a delightful experience that left me feeling grateful to witness such a special moment in their lives.

Working with Courtney and Spencer was so much fun! They had a natural ease about them that made everything flow effortlessly. They were so easy to work with and be around, which made it easy for me to capture their genuine and pure connection. It was a pleasant surprise to discover that they found me through one of my college softball teammates, and we shared a similar background as fellow midwest-to-Arizona transplants. It was lovely to chat with them about home and exchange experiences. I always enjoy getting to know my couples and creating meaningful memories for them through my photography. It’s priceless to be able to look back on these moments and cherish them forever. As a photographer, I believe it’s essential to build a relationship with my couples, and I felt fortunate to connect with Courtney and Spencer so effortlessly.

Small Wedding, Big Style: An Arizona Elopement Look

Courtney and Spencer’s elopement was a true reflection of their charming personalities and effortless style. I absolutely adored Courtney’s short elopement dress from ASOS, which was simply beautiful and made her look like a modern-day princess. Her shoes were the perfect choice to complement her dress, adding a touch of glamour to her outfit. Also, her ring was SO stunning, sparkling in the sunlight. Spencer looked equally stylish in his black tuxedo, which suited the occasion perfectly. Together, they made a gorgeous and stylish couple. It was an unforgettable timeless elopement, filled with warmth and joy, and I feel so fortunate to have been a part of it. Courtney and Spencer’s impeccable sense of fashion only added to the magical atmosphere of the day, making it all the more special.
