I was so blessed by all the fabulous weddings I had in 2008 and am so thankful for all the new relationships that grew from them. 2008 was such a whirlwind of a year, I booked about 4 weddings each month and am so thankful for that. But I decided when the summer was over that 2009 was going to a bit different, I will only have a limited amount of weddings this year and so far their booking fast! I want to thank you all for choosing me to be a part of such an intimate time in your lives and for allowing me to get beautiful images from fabulous clients! Heres a tidbit into the year.
Jen & George- When they asked me to be their photographer, I could not refuse! George has been a cancer survivor for several years and Jen has been there with him through all of it. They are so much in love and little did I know I would gain two friends out of this very special experience.
I caught this little princess in the aisle without a show and Had to get a shot or two or three ok maybe 4!
These two for so much fun! We sailed away on the Portland Rose Sternwheeler and at sunset they were married.
This wedding was so cool! They had so many different little attributes included for instance instead of toasting champagne glasses, they had Tiffany & Co. Crystal Beer Mugs, and baseball bats for the guest book, etc.. Great work on all the plans and everyone over at Gray Gables Estates did a fabulous job!
What a gorgeous wedding On top of Mt. Tabor in Portland, Cherry blossoms everywhere and beautiful sunshine! This couple was one of the sweetest couples I had ever met!
I just loved this one of her father walking down the aisle with her.
This shot cracked me up, I asked them to be creative in their jumping, whether that would be doing flips or the splits, they were more then willing! Notice the groomsman on the left LOL
This one I loved because of the lighting but also of how the light is directly on the groom staring at his bride while her father gives her away.
Crystal & Dennis were married in Seattle on Lake Union at the fun Lake Union Crew they were surprised with a seaplane to pick them up after their reception!
Great fun with Jen & Dan, The guys were having to much fun pretending to beat up Dan, meanwhile the girls were getting ready with tons of laughter and girly stuff!
This wedding I will never forget! Marisa & James were married on August 16th which happened to be 107 degrees. The church had no air conditioning inside and it was just as hot outside so let me say everyone was ready to jump in a pool or ice cold water! They are such a sweet couple and trucked through it like no otha despite the heat!
Jennifer & Dale were such a joy to work with, there was wedding was absolutely perfect, we stole some shots of them in between the ceremony and reception at their favorite date spot Commonwealth Park and right before sunset.
These girls were so much fun and all just beautiful!
Blake & Dave had a spectacular wedding with bold rich browns and greens on the cliffs of Canon Beach, OR at The Ocean Lodge , they were so welcoming and really such a blast to work with!
Megan & Chris were married at her parents house in Washougal, WA. It is such a beautiful piece of property and their home is breathtaking. I could not have asked for a better group of people, everyone was so much fun and so inviting. This was indeed a blast!
I got a shot of these lovely ladies during the father & daughter dance, it was such an emotional and special moment
OK I think Ill stop at those for now, I will share some of my fave Detail shots of 2008 as well as famill & Child shots of 2008 soon! Blessings for 2009!
