Melissa & Chris 08.25.07

Melissa and Chris were married in Corvallis at the Hanson Country Inn on an amazing day. Melissa was radiant from the moment we first encountered her. Chris and her were glowing all day and were nothing but smiles and laughter as they enjoyed the day with all thier friends and family. You could really sense the love between them.

Some key moments of the day were the heirlooms Melissa kept close to her all day. She wore a ring and kept a locket from her grandparents on her bouquet (see the photo below). I also loved the way they did their table assignments for dinner. They made Jam and labeled the tops with the names of each guest and where they were assigned to sit. I just thought it was such a cool gift for everyone! Lastly, The guests threw lavender at Melissa and Chris as they exited the ceremony as husband and wife! It smelled amazing and made for some cool photos!

Our friend and assistant Amy came along with me for the day and Josh was out at the coast for another wedding. Check out some of my favorites from the day and Stay tuned for photos from Josh's August 25th wedding.

Julie & Craig's Wedding 08.24.07

Julie and Craig were married a few weeks ago at Tyee Vineyard located just south of Corvallis. Friends and family traveled from all around the world to celebrate with Julie and Craig. They wanted to show everyone what the beautiful Oregon countryside is all about. There was a bluegrass band, wonderful wine and great company all evening long. The day ended with a perfect glowing sunset.

One thing that stands out to us were all the amazing colors all day long. From the bright blue sky to the soft pink flowers, the green vines to the golden sunset, we were so inspired all day long! Enjoy some of our favorites from the day and click the link below to view their slideshow.

Our clients are trying to confuse us...

So I didn't actually realize this until last week when I made my first mistake and put the wrong name on a slideshow (eek!). I'm pretty sure all of our clients are trying to confuse Josh and I ;) SO so so many of their names overlap. Here is a rundown for you all. Crazy huh? 10 duplicate names!

Corey & Lora > Laura & Greg > Greg & Sonja
Ann & Chris > Chris & Melissa > Melissa & Michael > Michael & Trisha
Evan & Jessica > Jessica & Ryan
Kelii & Katie > Katie & Spencer
Sarah & Derek > Derek & Ashley > Ashley & Kevin > Kevin & Robin

Joe & Tiffany 08.18.07

Joe and Tiffany were married last month in Salem Oregon. The day was phenomenal and we LOVED the big fluffy clouds moving around in the sky all day!

Joe and Tiffany share a sweet love together. They are always laughing which is great for any relationship but it also makes them really fun to photograph! In fact their engagement shoot is one of our favorites. You can check it out here: ENGAGEMENT SLIDESHOW From that you can see we were excited to work with them again on their big day - and they did not fail us! They were even happier on their wedding day (of course!)

One trend Josh and I have noticed is many of our clients this year are also artists in one way or another. It gives us drive to push ourselves and really try new things. I bring this up because Tiffany is a hair stylist (our third hair stylist bride this summer!) and Joe is going to school for Graphic Design (go Beavs!) I hope this trend of creative couples keeps on because it makes our work that much more creative when we get to work with people that understand us and appreciate all that we do!

Thanks Joe and Tiffany for the great time and enjoy your photos!

Laura & Greg 08.17.07

Laura and Greg had a phenomenal wedding up at Timberline Lodge located at the top of Mount Hood. Aside from the chilly wind the day was wonderful and everyone - especially the bride and groom - fought the cold with us to get some great shots. Despite the way it looked early on, the clouds broke and the top of the mountain was out in the sun all day. The ceremony was amazing and the most beautiful part was when Laura and her father walked down the mountain side to the ceremony below as Greg and the rest of the crowd looked on.

After the ceremony and photos with the bride and groom, the party went on all night. There was tons of laughing and dancing with all of their friends and family.

Thanks for having us along on your wonderful day.
