Like a lot of brides, Julie wanted her and Nate’s wedding to look great, down to the last detail. This included garnishing the chairs of the head table to reflect the seasonal change from summer to autumn.
Laurel & Jacob were married this past August at the Seven Springs Ranch near Glide, Oregon. Their ceremony site was located near the lodge, which is nestled in a deep valley that gets dark much sooner than the surrounding hillsides. Looking out at those hills, after the cake had been cut, I saw this golden light so I grabbed the newlyweds and their best…
Every bride wants to look her best on her wedding day and finding a great wedding dress is a must. Deanna, shown here, was very happy with her dress, especially after that morning’s fitting was a little hectic…Deanna’s mother was adjusting the dress and suddenly we all heard a ripping sound. Nobody could find where it had come from and the dress fit perfectly,…
Emily and Billy were married at the St John the Wonderworker Serbian Orthodox Church in Eugene and had their reception at Mt Pisgah immediately afterwards. I wanted to take advantage of this great, late-afternoon light coming in, so I told the couple to walk towards an open field and that I’d meet them there. This gave me a chance to follow them, surreptitiously, and…
Removing the garter from the bride is a time honored tradition. A lot of young couples these days, however, are finding ways to insert a little creativity into it. This bride tied hers on in such a way that it was much harder for the groom to remove. All the guests knew about the slipknot; the groom did not:)
Leanne & Ryan were married at Whisper’n’Oaks on a beautiful summer day. The wheat fields had just been harvested so I suggested we move into the grove of oak trees that gave the venue its name. I really loved the long shadows cast by the trees, and that golden sunlight coming in behind them. I wanted to create an image that popped so I…
During this Mt Pisgah wedding reception, it was the priest who tagged along and got some ‘grab shots’ of the bride and groom! Normally, when I take a newlywed couple away for their portrait session, I’m trailed by the bride’s parents or her maid of honor. This was the first time I’d seen a priest so intent on capturing the moment:) Perhaps that’s because…
Katie and Adam were married in Portland, under the St John’s Bridge. I had them leap off one of the support columns because I like how much the base of the column blended in with the upright part behind it; it looks like they’ve really taken a big jump!
The See-Vue Motel, in Yachats, is a great coastal hotel. Dating from a more laid back era, this hotel retains the typical washed-out look of a lot of coastal properties…all that wind and rain really does its job. At this particular wedding, the couple knew the owners of the motel quite well so they had the entire place rented out. I shot this image…
Our Daily Bread is a restaurant in Veneta, Oregon. Formerly an old church, the building has been beautifully converted into a fine eating establishment and event venue. Most weddings at Our Daily Bread happen in the backyard area but this one, shot last weekend, took place entirely inside due to the cold, wet weather we normally get in November. I couldn’t pass up a…
