Cathleen & Francisco Wedding (sneak peak)

Here is a quick sneak peak from last weeks wedding. There are a TON of great images, but these jumped out at me on the initial pass through. The love between these two made my job easy.

Have a great time in Italy you two!

Keva & Seth E-Session

Doing a little blog catch up today. This shoot was actually a couple of weeks ago and we had a blast! We went to the Columbia River Gorge and drove up and down the senic highway. For those that don't know, there are several really cool waterfalls (one of my favorite things) and it's just an all around beautiful place to hang out. It was a great day, and because of that there were 1,078,345 people up there, but we managed to find a few less crowded places to capture some great moments.

Thanks Keva and Seth for hanging out and spending the day with me. I had a ton of fun and look forward to your wedding!

He are a few of my favs from the day:

Briana & Ryan Wedding 5.30.09

Wow, what a great time! These two are super cool and truly in love with each other. Normally I have to tell my couples "Ok, a little kiss here." Not these two. I couldn't stop them =)! It made my job easy as the emotion and love for each other just flowed throughout the day.

Their families were a lot of fun too and Ryan's team...well, they were a bit crazy. I loved it!

Thanks you guys for letting me be a part of your awesome day. It was an honor to meet your wonderful families and get to know everyone a bit. I had a great time and wish you two all the best as you start your new life together.

Here are some of my favorites from the day:

Briana & Ryan E-Session

Well it finally happened. Whew! We had this session scheduled probably 5 different times and had something happen every time. Everything from Briana's ring not making it in time to the weather being horrible got in our way. All the while their wedding was getting closer and closer. Yikes!

Monday was the day and we finally had things work out in our favor. The weather still wasn't ideal, but we made the best of it and got some killer shots! These two were troopers with their squinty eyes looking into a reflection while we waited a few seconds for the next cloud to cover the sun. Nothing was going to stop us this day!

I had a great day with you guys and it was such a relief to get this done it time. I know we were all starting to sweat it a bit. But, everything happens for a reason and we got some killer shots and made the deadline so it all worked out. You guys did great battling the wind, sun, clouds, sun, clouds, wind, sun....thing all day. I bet you were tired, but I think it was worth it. I'm looking forward to your wedding on the 30th!

Here are a few of my favorites from the day:




Love this one!



Sweet, sweet backlight...







Um, ride 'em fishboy?



Briana is going to look HOT on her wedding day!
