We spent the most beautiful Santa Fe evening with cuties Elsa and Matt. These babes are tying the knot in 2022, but we were so excited to spend a little bit of time with them before they make it official.
These hunnies met before the pandemic, but grew super close during 2020’s lockdown. Matt and Elsa eventually moved in together, got engaged, and now have the sweetest pup, Otis. We’re beyond thrilled to be a part of their sweet Los Poblanos wedding next year!
Bring on all the golden hour engagement sessions with the most stunning couples, we’re so down for it all!!!

James + Alanna, an Enchanting Los Poblanos Engagement
Perhaps one of the most amazing moments of 2021 was when our absolute wedding day ANGEL, Alanna, asked us to photograph her sweet engagement session with her amazing fiancé, James. We met up with these lovebirds at Los Poblanos for the dreamiest, most romantic day.
James and Alanna first met back in 2013 at work and after what they called “the best first date ever”, these two just knew it was meant to be. Now over four years later these two have built the sweetest life together complete with James’ three adorable kids and a whole bunch of amazing little fur babies (or as Alanna likes to call it, a zoo lol). They’ve been engaged for a little over a year and we’re so damn thrilled for them.
And as if we couldn’t be any more obsessed with James and Alanna, these cuties describe their relationship as one filled with love, patience, inspiration, and growth. Alanna loves James’ intelligence, humor, and kindness while James admires Alanna’s compassion and her love for everyone in her life. These two encourage each other to grow and become the best versions of themselves every single day.
James and Alanna are planning on making it official in 2022 with a potential Hawaiian wedding (!!!!!). We’re so very inspired by these amazing souls and can’t freaking wait for them to start the next chapter of their lives together. James and Alanna, we love you guys to the moon and back!!!
xoxo, the ALP team

David + Kelly, a Dreamy Santa Fe Engagement
Even though these Texas cuties are tying the knot in Charleston, South Carolina, they spent the prettiest evening with us in the heart of downtown Santa Fe. We loved exploring some of our favorite old locations with these babes.
David and Kelly met in 2020 on Hinge right in the middle of Covid and they just knew it was meant to be. These hunnies bonded over their mutual loves of cooking, listening to music, and of course planning trips around the world. David and Kelly are going to make it official with a small, yet so freaking special wedding with only their closest friends and family this November and we couldn’t be more excited for them.
