Although Martin and Alexis both grew up in the small town of Battle Mountain, Nevada and graduated two years apart in school it wasn’t until college that the two of them  parked up a relationship in 2012. Martin was attending Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo, California and Alexis was attending Feather River College in Quincy, California.

All the pieces seemed to fit together following their initial meeting, which happened after Alexis made a spontaneous trip to San Luis Obispo during spring break to visit Martin  for the first time. The two of them found themselves inseparable after returning back to their hometown the following summer. The next few years Martin and Alexis spent many of their weekends traveling back and forth from San Luis Obispo to Reno or occasionally meeting in Sacramento to see one another. Many of their weekend dates  consisted of hockey games, college rodeos, amusement parks, traveling, and many more adventures. However, the weekends never seemed to be quite long enough.

After five years together, Martin had relocated to Elko for a job and Alexis was getting ready to finish up her undergraduate degree from the University of Nevada, Reno. Alexis  decided to make the move out to Elko from Reno a little over a year and a half ago. Since then, Martin and Alexis have relocated out to Lamoille, Nevada and are engaged to be married on September 8th, 2018! The two of them look forward to starting their next adventure as Mr. & Mrs. Paris and can’t wait to share their special day with family and  friends!

-Martin & Alexis, I am beyond excited to capture your love story this year! You two are absolutely incredible to work with and I enjoy documenting the underlying love you two have for one another! It shows so naturally. Thank you for all of the giggles, jokes, and of course ending our session in the rain! I can't wait for your wedding day. 

-Another special "Thank You" to the de Braga's for continuing to rent out 7th Canyon Ranch for portrait sessions and wedding ceremony and receptions! Their land is so breathtaking, who wouldn't want to get married here?
