The Little Daisy | Jerome, AZ

Some wedding days feel like they’re straight out of a storybook—Tatum and Jacob’s intimate wedding day was exactly that. Set against the historic charm of The Little Daisy in Jerome, Arizona, their wedding was intimate, relaxed, and beautifully untraditional.
From the moment they inquired, they made it clear that they weren’t looking for a “typical” wedding. They wanted a day that felt personal, unique, and full of love—exactly the kind of celebration that resonates with my approach to wedding photography.
The day was perfect but full of unexpected moments - before their ceremony, strong winds toppled florals, prompting a last-minute move of the reception tables and set-up indoors to the long windowed corridor... this twist only added to the charm of the day, making the already intimate celebration even more cozy and personal. Surrounded by warm oranges, earthy tones, and deep greens, Tatum and Jacob soaked in every heartfelt moment alongside their closest friends, family, and their beloved pup, Piper.
After sharing a short but sweet first look on the top floor of The Little Daisy, they exchanged vows in the simple yet stunning setting, thoughtfully designed by Cloth & Flame. A joyful champagne toast followed, leading into a relaxed reception featuring all the best things—pizza, cannolis, and a simple layered cake that perfectly matched their laid-back vision.
AND, because one dress simply wasn’t enough, Tatum made a mid-celebration outfit change, adding an extra touch of effortless elegance to their day.
As an Arizona & Michigan based travel wedding photographer, I love capturing couples who embrace their own vision for their wedding day. Tatum and Jacob’s wedding was a perfect example of why I love this job so much — it was REAL, unposed, and filled with love.
