Happy Valentine’s Day!! j’lynn mak | arizona lifestyle photographer
Posted on February 14, 2010
I recently entered the first photo shown here into a contest with over 500 photographers from all over the world to win a spot in a amazing light workshop. The theme was Valentine’s Day, and I would be lying to say I was not more than a little bit worried!! Since my work is pretty unrehearsed I was trying to figure out what I could do and still be true to my style. I ended up loving how these turned out, and I was so excited to find out I took 2nd place!! I am currently attending the workshop, and cannot wait to try all the new things I am learning.
Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!!
XOXO

a gorgeous mingus mountain wedding…j’lynn mak | arizona lifestyle wedding photographer
Posted on November 11, 2009
Above Jerome there is a spot at the very top of Mingus mountain that overlooks the entire Verde Valley. From here the views of Cottonwood, Sedona, Flagstaff and beyond will leave you simply breathless.
This is the spot Tim and Bridget chose to start their new life together.
I was so excited when Bridget contacted me about their upcoming wedding. A wedding on Halloween with the only white coming from the glow of the full moon above us. Excited does not really cover it!!
This was the most gorgeous non-traditional wedding I have ever seen! Bridget’s stunning iridescent gown, her lovely daughters in their crimson gowns, the beautiful black orchids, and the little ring bearer with the Mohawk all set in the middle of the forest was breathtaking.
The love Tim and Bridget share, and the way they incorporated the two little girls into every part of this day was beautiful. I thank you for choosing me to be a part of your special day, and wish you all a long and happy life!!
Enjoy your sneak peek!!

I had the pleasure of shooting Ben and Sarah’s engagements last week. They were in town visiting family before heading back to their duty station on the east coast, where they both serve in the United States Navy.
There is so much love between these two it was lovely to watch them together along with Sarah’s beautiful daughter.
I cannot tell you how excited I am to be shooting their wedding next summer!!
I hope you guys enjoy your sneak peek!

Finally more from the gorgeous wedding in Flagstaff two weeks ago. I was so honored to be able to second shoot for fellow photographer & friend Jennifer Fauset. Jen is an amazing photographer from Salt Lake City, Utah. Check out her site for more shots from this wedding @ Fauset Photography.
The wedding was held at the Church of the Nativity in downtown Flagstaff, which offered a beautiful backdrop for Guin & Jeff’s special day. We then had a quick stop at NAU for some more shots before heading to the reception at Thornagers on Kilte Lane.
I realized something about myself at this wedding…as toasts were being given by the maid of honor, and the best man I found my camera hanging low around my neck and tears in my eyes. I hadn’t even realized that I was so moved by these beautiful toasts that I had failed to take one photo in the last ten minutes. I looked over to see Jen shooting away, it was at this point I realized what a newbie I am!
