Kit and Ryan’s day was everything a spring, Phoenix wedding should be — sunlit, romantic, and effortlessly stylish. Their Phoenix wedding at Brophy Chapel and Papago Golf Club captured all the elements of a perfect desert celebration.

They exchanged vows at Brophy Chapel, a stunning historic venue in the heart of Phoenix, surrounded by the people who know them best. Later, guests gathered under the stars at Papago Golf Club for a reception filled with glowing string lights, spring blooms, and that unmistakable golden-hour warmth Arizona does so well. Their Phoenix wedding was truly a beautiful one.

The entire day felt elevated yet natural — the kind of wedding that invites you to slow down and soak it in. Elegant but never overdone. The kind of day you feel, not just remember.

The morning of Kit and Ryan’s Phoenix wedding was calm, sunny, and full of intention. Kit got ready at a gorgeous, light-filled Airbnb surrounded by her closest friends and family, while Ryan prepared at their apartment across town. The quiet energy of the morning set the tone for the day — simple, personal, and deeply meaningful. One of the most special moments was watching Kit’s sister help her into her dress — a quiet pause that felt intimate and unforgettable, like the kind of memory that becomes more treasured with time.

Before their ceremony, we took time for portraits around Brophy Chapel — and it couldn’t have been a more perfect setting. The architecture was timeless, elegant, and so fitting for a wedding this meaningful. Kit and Ryan began by reading their vows privately, and it was one of the most emotional parts of the day. I always get sentimental during vows, and theirs were especially heartfelt. Afterward, we explored the chapel grounds together, letting the light and space guide us. It was quiet, intimate, and full of presence — the kind of portrait time that feels less like posing and more like remembering.
