Adam + Sara

Wedding Date :: March 2014

How they met :: Online Shopping! (Match.com) We were both getting ready to take a little break from online dating craziness. Luckily, we each decided to give it one last try.

3 Things you love most about your relationship? • 1. We are willing to do what it takes to build and continually maintain a strong relationship. We both come from strong families and have parents that have role-modeled commitment. • 2. We can (and do) talk about anything. Silly subjects, serious subjects... they are all on the table. We can also agree to disagree. The rule is: You can be right as long as I am not WRONG. • 3. We can play. We can be straight-up goofy. Sara can make Adam laugh so hard he can't stand up straight and Adam can make Sara giggle/laugh to the point she can't talk.

3 Things you love most about Sara? Passionate, Independent, Caring (family-oriented), Loyal, Silly/Playful.

3 Things you love most about Adam? Loyal, Caring (loves family), Determined/persistent, Funny/Sarcastic, Romantic, Humble (more fabulous than he realizes).

Name your 3 favorite things you enjoy doing together? We love to take walks, particularly on the weekend morning, and especially if they involve a detour for coffee. • A movie theater is a favorite escape from the blazing Arizona sun, but we have to avoid movies that are too, too scary or gory because those give Sara nightmares. • We've been spending a lot of time sprucing up Adam's house. It is a good thing that Sara enjoys painting. • Sport Events, just TRY and pry Adam away from the game during football season.

Name 5 places you have been together? We celebrated out first Christmas together in the Desert Botanical Gardens. The music and twinkling lights and the luminarias lining the pathway made for a special evening. We are really looking forward to returning to the gardens for our wedding in March. We also enjoy going to D'backs Games, particularly if there are fireworks. Sara likes to snuggle up to Adam and watch the show. We also go to ASU Football Games. Adam and his dad have season tickets and have "guy time"... but when dad is out of town, Sara gets to go! So much fun.

What music means the most to you as a couple? I won't give up on us (Jason Mraz), Green Eyes (Coldplay), A thousand years (Christina Perri)

Your ideal date night? Bowling, enjoying a meal at gluten free restaurants, and ending the night with our guilty pleasure, gelato.

How would you describe your relationship in one word? Forever (aww..)

Phoenix Family Portraits : Leivian Family

Title_Leivian

Phoenix, AZ

Photographer : Stuart Thurlkill

The Leivian's are such an incredible family. We have had the distinct honor of knowing them for many years and on many different levels. We first met Jackie while she worked at the Phoenix Art Museum. When we first met Jackie we immediately connected as she is fun loving and down to earth. We were thrilled to hear the news when Jackie and Matt decided to get married at the Arizona Biltmore. We got even more excited when they selected us to be their wedding photographers! Now we join them as they celebrate and introduce their second baby Vivienne to the world. Matthew, Jackie, Beecher and Vivienne, you are loved!
