From “I Do” to a Family of Six — The Yee Family Story in Photos

I’ve had the honor of photographing the Yee family several times over the past few years, but what makes their story especially meaningful to me is that I was there at the very beginning — when Kiri and Brian said “I do.”


Back in 2011, I captured their wedding day at Brophy Chapel and Arizona Biltmore — a stunning celebration of love and laughter. Not long after, they moved back to California to start their next chapter. So when I heard they were returning to Arizona (with three adorable kids in tow!), I was beyond thrilled to reconnect and photograph their growing crew.


Soon, three became four — and I had the joy of capturing a combined maternity and family session here in Scottsdale. A few weeks later, baby C arrived, and I was honored once again to document this sweet season of newborn snuggles, doting big siblings, and a whole lot of love.


These sessions are more than just photos — they’re chapters of a love story I’ve had the privilege of witnessing for over a decade. It's truly an honor to me that Kiri and Brian continue to invite me in to capture the real, the beautiful, and the in-between moments that matter most.


They’re the sweetest family. The kids adore their baby brother, and watching their dynamic evolve each year has been such a gift. This is what I love most about being a family photographer — not just the images, but the connection, the consistency, and the shared history that builds with time.
