Just a few months ago, as spring was beginning it’s transition into yet another sunny New Mexican summer, a parallel transition was happening at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Albuquerque. Michelle + Dennis, whose love began a long time ago, ushered in the evolution of their relationship from fiancées to newlyweds, while framed by the […]
Rick Saul Photography {Professional Spotlight}
We’re sure you’ve gleaned this from our endless scroll of real wedding and styled shoot content, but in case you haven’t: we. love. wedding. inspiration.

Urban v. Natural Engagement Photo Locations In Albuquerque
Ah yes, the time-honored tradition of engagement photos… Well, maybe not necessarily time-honored — this part of the wedding planning process actually gained popularity relatively recently in the history of weddings. It initially came about so couples could include a photo with their announcement in the local paper. Though somewhat new, it is one of […]
A Bride’s Best Friend: Pups in Weddings
Can you imagine a world where you could bring your dog everywhere with you? We can’t know for certain, but we’d willing to wager that crime rates would lower, there’d be triple the number of weddings every year, and everyone would have clear skin and a smile on their face at all times. {We can […]
Where Are They Now? Genevieve + Ricky’s Post-Wedding Perfection
Beginnings are always so beautiful, aren’t they? And what are weddings, except for a celebration of a new life beginning together?

Turquoise Tenderness: Southwestern Styled Shoot
Turquoise, ristras, and adobe — does it get any more New Mexican than that!? We’ve been sending so much love to our home place recently, what with the venue features and wedding spotlights. But it seems like we aren’t the only ones who have caught the bug and are showing more and more […]
Albuquerque’s Most Beloved Bakery: The Cake Boutique
Florists, officiants, and DJs, oh my! We say this a lot, but planning your wedding really is quite the task. You’ve got vendors to meet and book, aunts and uncles to invite (or not invite — we don’t judge), shoes to find, makeup trials, gowns to get fitted — and that’s not even the half […]
To Boudoir or To Not Boudoir? 5 Reasons Every Bride Should Have A Shoot
Not every wedding trend is going to be your jam, obviously. Maybe you opted for deep, jewel tones instead of the traditional muted hues and pastels. Maybe you went totally 1940’s classic chic as opposed to the rustic, burlap-and-lace vibe. Or maybe you threw out the whole wedding, and instead had a styled elopement! {Like […]
Local + Lovely: Albuquerque’s Favorite Wedding Show
SNAG YOUR TICKETS HERE! Okay, so maybe the Diamond Dash is actually your favorite wedding show. Which makes sense — where else do you have the opportunity to dive into a giant wedding cake and dig around for diamond jewelry? {No, seriously, is there somewhere else you can do that? Because we’d love a […]
