The day was packed with great friends and family at a beautiful setting. Heather looked beautiful and Matt was as calm as they come. We wish them many years of happiness and look forward to the honeymoon stories.



The beautiful Verde River Rock House B&B was a fantastic site for the ceremony

Susan Jacobson did a wonderful job on the floral arrangements.

Kim and Gary came to JATart via a mutual friend (thanks Margaux) for their upcoming wedding. When asked where they would like to have their engagement shots done they suggested Tempe town lake. I hate to admit it, but I have lived in phoenix for over 15+ years and I have yet to go to the lake since they redid it. WHAT A FUN PLACE. Kim and Gary were looking for some formal and casual shots at the same time. They also wanted to bring their dog Dozer in for the fun! They are a great couple that enjoy making each other laugh! Looking forward to the wedding when everyone lets loose!


what Gary's dreams are like

Not too long ago we received an email at JATart for a senior shoot for a synchronized swimmer. Now we didnt know much about synchro swimming but we were up for a fun challenge. Leah was a GREAT model and we had a fun time with her shots. She has a fun carefree attitude that really comes through in her pictures.

Well we have been busy lately with photo sessions and some landscape photography. My family and I took a day trip up to sedona and took some pictures. We love heading up there to get out of the heat and revisit where my wife and I got married.

This 4th of July was fantastic with some great friends and our sons first fireworks display. It was also fun to try out the new camera. Here are a couple shots from our last minute firework planning. I’ve always wondered how they create the firework to explode with different colors on different halves.
