ARIZONA WEDDING & FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Arizona is the kind of place that invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and celebrate love in landscapes that feel both wild and grounding. Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate elopement among red rocks, a desert-gold wedding at sunset, or simply want to capture this season of life with your person, I’m here for it. After six years as a Seattle wedding photographer, I’ve traded evergreens for saguaros — and I’m so excited to continue documenting honest, heart-led stories here in the desert. As an experienced elopement photographer, I specialize in capturing intimate, adventurous celebrations in the landscapes that make you feel most like yourself. I am based in Queen Creek, but excited to explore all of Arizona!

CAPTURING UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS

IN THE ARIZONA DESERT

Blake Reid is a destination photographer specializing in weddings and elopements throughout Arizona and the Southwest. We photograph weddings, engagements, and commercial work using both film and digital formats.

We’re a husband-and-wife photography duo now based in Arizona, capturing real moments and honest wedding stories for couples who value connection over perfection. Over the past decade, our work has taken us across the West — from coastal ceremonies to mountain elopements — and now, we’re excited to call the desert home. Whether you’re planning an intimate sunrise elopement among the saguaros or a full wedding celebration beneath Arizona’s incredible skies, we’re honored to document it.


Our goal is simple: create meaningful images you’ll love for a lifetime. We’ll be with you every step of the way—from the first conversation to the final delivery—making sure the experience feels easy, supportive, and true to you.
