Carly and Mischa's wedding was like a burst of sunshine in every way. The bright primary colors of the bridal party, details and florals added such exuberance to the gorgeous rustic wooden scenery of Cooper Spur. Everywhere I looked, sun, trees, lavender, and the majesty of Mt Hood, and the beaming faces of everyone present. A kazoo rendition of "Lean on Me", a fun "how well do you know them" game, and oh my gosh the toasts. I'll never forget the beautiful, heartfelt, and hilarious stories that were told and I'm sure no one else will either. 

what a celebration. i'm so thankful i got to be there to document this wonderful day, and so very happy for Mischa and Carly and their loved ones!!

Katie and Ashley were married this past spring in the most beautiful ceremony at Saint David of Wales Episcopal Church. It was such a joy to photograph them together in the trees at Cedarville Lodge before joining their cozy reception - lit with candles and filled with their family and friends. Great food, sweet toasts, dancing, and an awesome paper-airplane exit capped off their day!

oh what?! a new blog post? (hides)

ridiculously overdue, this wedding is from this past fall but i still wanted to share it - Chuck and Leah are the loveliest couple and i had such a wonderful time with them, and with their warm and welcoming family and friends. they got married at the Surfsand Resort in Cannon Beach during that crazy storm we had. they practically got blown off the dunes by the wind but we still got some photos on the beach and these two still managed to look phenomenal! such a memorable day, crowned with an unbelievably beautiful sunset. xx

one more blog before i head to los angeles to photograph one of my sweet 2017 couples for their engagement session! (side note, i am writing this at 445am, after my dearest child decided 230am was the time we should wake up for our 7am flight...send coffee)

Sondra and Casey's wedding was one of my favorites ever, for many many reasons. First and foremost these two are warm and inspiring, kindred spirits. Their fantastic day was deeply heartfelt, unique and quirky, and so very meaningful. And they sure know how to throw a party! I'll let the photos do the rest of the talking. 

Big thanks as always to my wonderful second shooter, Sarah Valentine - some of her beautiful work is mixed in below.

Jess and Justin were married under a brilliant blue sky surrounded by sand and sea and loved ones. It just so happened that there was a tourist playing his ukelele near where the ceremony was to be, and he agreed to play for them. It was a beautiful and serendipitous addition to the wedding! xo
