A New Bride
Posted on September 27, 2014
Jordan couldn’t wait to whisk Trisha away for their honeymoon…it was only a dozen miles or so up the road! The Clark Creek area is stunning and Jordan had already secured a riverfront spot earlier in the day. This image was taken after the sun had disappeared behind the hills but there was still some soft twilight filtering through the trees. I hiked up here with the couple, my trusty off-camera light in one hand and my camera in the other, so we could visit the cave at the top of the climb (more on that in my next post).
A Walk with Dad

I love finding unique perspectives. When the bride and her father made their way across the bridge I wanted to capture a sense of the venue, which was way out in the woods with no electricity and no cell coverage. This shot conveys a little of that; I really like the small opening in the trees that afforded me a ‘sneak peek’ as they approached the path leading to the aisle. This wedding was at Clark Creek Campground, out past Lowell, Oregon.

Roses are Red
Posted on September 8, 2014
Trisha and Jordan were married at the Clark Creek Campground this past Saturday; yes, during the Michigan State game! Since there was no power and no cell service we were all able to keep our focus on the joyful celebration of marriage between these two. This shot was made after the sun had already gone behind the hills. Using an off-camera Canon 600EX-RT speedlight, softened through a white umbrella about three feet from the couple, I was able to use the light from the flash to freeze the petals in mid-air and also have enough ambient light to keep the rest of the frame from going completely black. My ISO was at 6400 but my Canon 5D3 was up to the task.
