On a quiet street outside of Las Cruces there are views one only dreams of. The colossal and jagged peaks of the Organ Mountain loom over the simple prairie. Between the dark blue sky and the yellow tall grass a simple and stark canvas is created, and greenery from the recent desert rains brings a touch of variety to the otherwise bi-colored landscape. Stephanie and Chris chose this almost surreal location as the backdrop for their engagement shoot. Stephanie grew up on this street, with the high desert as her backyard, and wanted to incorporate how much she loves this space into their shoot. I was more than pleased to photograph this sweet couple in such a meaningful location. We spent the first part of our time together exploring around the farm and hills that surround the family home. No posing or guiding, just fun playing with cows and searching for rocks with her little one. And then as the sun started to set we made time for just the two of them. It was beautiful and romantic, and I am so looking forward to photographing their upcoming wedding. Enjoy…
