Katie's Bridal Shoot

This was a first for us. We want to start offering "bridal sessions" to our brides next year which is an extra session after the wedding just with the bride. We usually don't get enough time with just the bride on her wedding day to get some phenomenal shots of her all dolled up in her beautiful dress with her special jewelry and all the rest of those details that go into being a bride. Therefore why not take her out one more time and really have some fun before she takes her dress off to the cleaners for the last time?

Katie was the perfect fit for what we wanted from the session. She is sweet, funny and gorgeous! Not to mention, we love love love her dress! Not many can pull off such a cool dress. We took her out on the town earlier this month for an hour and had a great time. We walked around downtown portand and couldn't have asked for more amazing weather! There was bright blue skies and beautiful fluffy white clouds. It was amazing!

Anyways... enjoy some of our favorites from the day below and click on the slideshow link to see more!

Tina & Dana's Wedding

Tina & Dana 08-04-07

Tina and Dana have a way they look at each other. The look that just shows how much they care for each other and are so happy to be together. It was our pleasure to document their day with all of the moments of laughter and tears from their beautiful ceremony through their wonderful reception.

A favorite moment for us was during the ceremony when the clouds broke and a sun beam warmed their faces. All day there had been wind and clouds blowing around Portland. Yet when the sun broke through for those last moments of the ceremony it felt like time stopped.

Thanks for having us along on your wedding day! We truely enjoyed documenting the sweet love you have for one another!

sharing is nice

Josh and I have developed the habit of showing our clients shots as we take them. We hope it gives our clients some confidence and excitement with how they are working with us. It is hard not to let clients see, especially when Josh and I start "oooohing and aaaahing" as we look at our cameras. Gotta love digital!! Here is a shot I snapped of Josh as he showed off one of his shots to Tina and Dana at their wedding this August 4th.

Meg & Mick's Wedding

What a celebration on 07-28-07!
This was a vacation for all the people attending Meg and Mick's wedding. It started 4 days prior at Anderson Lodge. There was fishing, swimming, vollyball and just having a great time. On the day of the wedding, everybody was in a wonderful mood and ready for the wedding to kick off as the grand finale of the week. Seeing how in love Meg & Mick are and capturing it through our cameras makes our job the best in the world.

Oh, and we must give props to one of the best dogs we have ever worked with. Meg and Mick's dog Seb was so fun to work with all day. He is very well behaved and so sweet! He was thier ring bearer during the ceremony and hung around all day with everyone.

Thanks Meg and Mick. Your wedding was fantastic!

Senior Photo's

Our awesome niece Kristine travelled all the way from Colorado at the end of
July to come visit us up here in Portland. She helped photograph two weddings
with us and at the end of her trip we had the pleasure of doing her senior
portraits for her. It was a first for us, so we had a ton of fun! Kristine is
nothing but smiles and laughter, not to mention she is gorgeous!

Thanks Kristine for the fun! And congrats on your final year in Highschool!

If you know anyone that needs some senior photos, we would love to take some!
