well… for this post; it is going to come in parts. This first part is the getting ready of the bride and groom before the ceremony. We just love the details, sweet moments with mom helping get the dress on, the random bursts of laughter that is captured, and all the little expressions in between!
When clients inquire about having us photograph their wedding, we make it as plain as we possibly can that we have a very distinct style, love the overlooked details, the not so traditional pictures, and love to tell the story of THEIR day through THEIR photos! We are super passionate about what we do, and ask that all couples let us get to know them, their style, what they love, and what makes them tick… after doing this, we ask two hugerooo questions: “Will you do EVERYthing we ask?” and “Will you go EVERYwhere we take you?” (we know that your shoes may get dirty (they will come clean), we know that your dress may get a bit wrinkled (no one ever notices and during your big day it will anyways), and you may have to re-apply your re-applied lip sticky all day (but then again… you might find a handsome man worthy of your kisses at your side all day anyways))… If the answers are undoubtably YES, then we excitedly take them on and anxioussly start the fun process. The truth is you have hired us for our picture style and it is all worth it in the end!
This was a DREAM of a couple to work with… Annd and I had full reigns, ran with our fun ideas, loved all of the details that they so carefully planned, and inturn… these pics are amazing, stunning, and quite simply: drop dead gorgeous with a romantic flair! The perfect couple, of course at the end of the night became hubs and wife and have been super patient with me during this process of making sure that their pics were perfect for them! Sooooo… Heather and Greg, here is your first of many sneak peeks! We loved working with you two and can’t wait to show you all of them soon!


these shoes are incredible… I will try to remember to find out where she got them and let you all know!

did I mention that we had a stunning house on the Deschutes River to work in and around?





I am pretty much in love with the way her red lips perfectly pop out in these pics… oh, and her nails too!


gimme those lashes


I always love catching a pic of the many hands that help!




momma just finishing it up!

this was by far the most intricate dress I had ever seen, and it was so tastefully put together too


oh, MR. Groom-man…

every detail on his outfit was carefully thought through too, from the boots and tie to this fun cuff link!
