When someone thinks of Arizona, they instantly think of the desert. It’s covered with the iconic cacti, mountains and valleys, dirt everywhere, and various whimsical-looking trees. Every year, I visit New River, Arizona to see my parents. They live down the block from acres and acres of scenic desert land that’s accessible to the public.
As I visit destination Arizona twice annually, couples book their engagement photos at this very spot.Â

” Miranda is such a talent! Something to note, especially for couples out there, a photographer who can make you feel confident and at ease is KEY to getting those amazing images – and Miranda is that photographer. She cares about your experience and will invest herself in making sure you’re getting the product and service that you want. I can not recommend her enough – I would use her for a wedding, an engagement shoot, a maternity shoot – virtually any moment that I would want to freeze in time and revisit in my life. If you were debating between her and another, this is your sign to go with Miranda – she is amazing.”Â
Hi! I am Miranda Suess, based in New York City and travels to Arizona a few times a year to visit my parents in New River, Arizona. Just a few miles outside of North Phoenix and an hour from the iconic Scottsdale, Arizona. I don’t charge travel fees while I am in Arizona as I have access to a vehicle and pay for my own airfare. My clients only pay for my time to produce the photoshoot, capture the sweet moments, edit the photos, and deliver them quality images they can feel. Please contact me below to book your Arizona engagement and weddings photos session 🙂
