Casa Rondeña Winery, Los Ranchos, NM

I could probably comment on a hundred things about Mariah and Alex’s engagement this past Saturday, but I’ll keep this short since there are SO many gorgeous photos to look at in this post!
First of all, they are getting married in August and plan to have a Catholic high Latin mass here in Albuquerque, and I am so excited to capture that beauty this summer!!
Second, they are an incredibly sweet couple, and their long distance engagement reminds me of my own in quite a number of ways! They were quite honestly the most ideal models behind my camera because of their gentle personalities and go-with-the-flow attitude about their engagement shoot, which is why there’s a million great photos!
They chose to have their engagement pictures at the incredibly beautiful, Casa Rondeña winery in Los Ranchos, NM. This is my absolute FAVORITE venue in town. It has so many beautiful locations on the property and provides a great backdrop for literally every single photograph and moment.
Both Mariah and Alex went super classy and timeless in their outfit selections, which ALWAYS, always, pays off in photos. Mariah’s burgundy dress complimented the Spanish style architecture of the buildings, and her cream dress coincided perfectly with the vineyard, which is still dormant this time of year! Gosh, just so beautiful and perfect!
This was the dreamiest way to kick off wedding season for me, and I’m not only so very honored to be their wedding photographer, but also can’t wait to serve them and their families on such a holy Sacramental day of their lives!!
Mariah and Alex, I hope you love these images as much as I do! You guys are thee cutest and I can’t wait for you to see the rest in your gallery! Xoxo
