Sedona Elopement Photographer: Zach and Samantha Rothschild

Check out this elopement, I’ve been posting sneak peeks for the last couple weeks but finally the Blog is here. Samantha found me on a Facebook post searching for vendors as they had to cancel their weeding due to covid. Making the decision to elope to Sedona may not have been their first choice however it was a beautiful one. Meeting up, I first met Samantha’s father, and Grandparents. I learned they had yet to see the bride so we set up a first look for them. The photos will not disappoint. Samantha’s Dad became overwhelmed at the sight of his daughter and moved me to tears. Grandma and Grandpa also looked at Samantha and joy and pride beamed from them. You could see just how loved our bride is. Once we set forth to the ceremony site I pulled Zach away to get him all set up for the first look of his very soon to be wife. While calm and collected Zach admitted to being a bit nervous but overall excited to be getting married to Samantha. He was a natural model, I’d make a suggestion he’d be set in pose before I could finish my request. (making my job soooooo easy) I had him wait on the path while I brought his bride to be back for their first look. Samantha’s beauty strikes again, taking the breath away from her groom and moving him to tears. Zach turns, his face was full of surprise and admiration, clutching his chest in disbelief he was shook. As Samantha walks toward her groom he starts to cry, they embrace and she dries his tears. Giving them a few moment to soak it in and appreciate the moment I just keep clicking away. Once they were ready, I took them to another little spot just bit away from their party to keep their moment uninterrupted. These two were so easy to pose and work with like previously mentioned I’d make a suggestion and before I could finished they were posed into exactly what I was looking for. Soon the Minister arrived and we began the ceremony, The Sedona Mountains surrounded them making their ceremony a magical spot. Immediate family watched while the couple said their vows and were married. Simple sweet and to the point.

Samantha and Zach,

It was a great honor to capture your wedding day, I hope you love the images as much as I do! May you have a long successful and happy marriage! Cheers!
