A Boho-inspired Love Story
In the heart of the stunning Mogollon Rim, Woods Canyon Lake shines as a hidden gem. Surrounded by towering ponderosa pines and the earthy hues of Northern Arizona, it sets the perfect stage for a romantic yet laid-back Mogollon Rim engagement session.
Venturing 30 miles east of Payson, we embarked on a picturesque journey to capture the day’s beauty. We aimed to harness the breathtaking views, serene lakeshore, and captivating natural backdrops, creating portraits that resonate with an intimate “Mogollon Rim Engagement” feel.
The bride-to-be
The bride-to-be chose a flowing cream-colored dress from Free People, featuring a dramatic low-cut back. It effortlessly embodied the boho aesthetic we sought to capture. Her fiance complemented her style with coyote-tan pants and a relaxed blue button-down shirt. For some standout shots, he casually rolled up his sleeves, unveiling forearm tattoos, each one weaving a unique tale of his journey.
We greatly appreciate when our clients choose attire that seamlessly harmonizes with the surroundings, allowing their genuine connection to shine. To be honest, this couple’s magnetic bond could shine through almost any attire.
The Mogollon Rim
Mogollon Rim often graces us with a gentle breeze, and on this day, it playfully tousled the bride’s chestnut hair. Her choice of gold disc earrings echoed the highlights in her hair, adding a touch of elegance to her ensemble. Bathed in the warm, late afternoon sun, her bare shoulders and radiant complexion stood out against the faint haze. Staying true to the natural beauty surrounding her, she opted for minimal makeup, if any at all. Her beautiful smile lit up her face, particularly in those intimate close-ups as they leaned into one another.
It felt as though we were invisible, merely capturing a moment that was exclusively theirs—a true “Mogollon Rim Engagement” story.
