Under the Lights, at Silvan Ridge

Lane County has so many great vineyards, it’s hard to see them all in one day. I recommend staying at The Blue Rooster B&B and making a weekend out of it. One of my favorite places to photograph weddings is at Silvan Ridge (formerly called Hinman Vineyards), directly across the road from Sweet Cheeks. This couple, Krista and Brian, flew in from Chicago and had a few days to make the place their own. Brian installed these lights over the dance floor and I thought that was a great idea. This was taken late at night, after almost everyone else had gone home, and it was just the bride and groom alone for the first time all day.

Smoke’em if You Got’em

At this wedding in Veneta last Saturday, at Our Daily Bread, all the guys wanted to step outside for a cigar. The weather cooperated beautifully that night: no wind and no rain! This allowed the smoke to go exactly where the guys aimed it…right in front of the groom.

Faith and Tradition

While I was waiting for the bride to begin changing into her wedding dress I looked around the room I was in and noticed this book. It appeared to have something in it so I opened it up and saw the wedding rings!
