The newest Ritz-Carlton property, Dove Mountain, is located about 45 min. from the Tuscon airport in AZ, and is truly a special place!  I was recently invited to photograph a wedding there by my friend and business partner in The Wedding Summit, Kristy Chenell, whose father, Rick, was set to marry the beautiful Holly on May 30, 2010.  The hotel and the surrounding grounds are just amazing and not like a regular hotel at all.  It's like a luxury resort that one might find in Mexico or Europe somewhere.  Only imagine being tucked back into a valley of dessert mountains where 5,000 years ago humans drew hieroglyphs on the rocks that you can now climb around on and touch.  There is also a huge pool and a water slide and hiking trails all around.  Not to mention the first class service from the entire Ritz staff no matter what you are doing.   I was there for the entire weekend and captured some really amazing moments and experienced (and of course photographed) some gorgeous raw desert light and scenery.  I truly hope that the entire family will treasure these photos forever.  One of my personal favorites is the shot through the telescope of Saturn taken at the rehearsal dinner.  It was SO amazing to see it and some of the other planets and stars so clearly.   That's what you get when you're in the middle of the dessert with no light pollution.  :-)  Here are a few of my favorite images and also a link to their slideshow.  I hope that I will have many more opportunities to photograph weddings at Dove Mountain!

Welcome to my Blog!
My name is Frances Marron  and I love the excitement and joy that surround wedding days!  I am a creative and free-spirited woman that has a lot of energy and love for the world.  I believe strongly in the law of attraction and that everything in the world happens for a positive reason.  I live just north of Denver across the street from beautiful Standley Lake with my two dogs/children, Cheyenne and Charlie Brown.  I love living in Colorado near most of my family and am borderline obsessed with snowboarding and the mountains. I hope you enjoy my photo-journal of all the weddings and other photo shoots I do for both business and pleasure. Your comments are welcome!
