Phoenix wedding photographer shoots southwestern wedding in Gilbert, Arizona.

On Saturday the 13th, I second shot at a wedding with my friend Gretchen of Gretchen Knoblock Photography. Michelle & Drew celebrated their big day with family and friends in the backyard of the Drew’s parent’s Gilbert, Arizona home. They did a great job of decorating and making the whole place look really nice! The couple involved their adorable son and daughter in the ceremony as the ring bearer and flower girl. The groom and groomsmen all wore cowboy hats giving the whole event a fun southwestern flair! Here are some of my favorite images from the day:

Phoenix wedding photographer joins the family for more birthday fun.

Yesterday was my sister Cheri’s birthday. The Skiba side of the family joined at my grandma’s house to celebrate the day and of course, I felt the need to document the momentous occasion. One thing is for sure – Cheri is much too young to be 39! I think the photos pretty much speak for themselves. Happy birthday Sis!

Phoenix wedding photographers frolic with family

About four times a year, we have a big get together with the Gotcher side of the family to celebrate all the birthdays. Sunday was the fall birthday celebration so we made the drive out to Glendale to join the fun. It’s always a blast to hang out with Ryan’s cousins. They are tons of fun – always full of silly antics. Here’s a few shots from the evening:
