Beautiful Engagement Portraits
Couples are so fun to photograph, especially when they have officially committed to each other and are eagerly looking forward to a shared future together. There is that sparkle in the eyes and the ease with each other. It’s interesting how people get such strong ideas in their heads about how photogenic they are. These ideas are almost always based on bad experiences with people who aren’t very experienced taking photographs. You simply can’t base your photogenic qualities on snapshots. If you think you’re hopeless give me a chance. I honestly believe I can make every single person look great in my portraits. That’s my job!
Tips For Shooting Rainy Weddings
Who says a little rain will ruin your wedding day? This is Oregon! At this wedding we saw it all. Glorious sunshine, light drizzle, torrential downpours, and even hail! Here’s some advice on how to handle a rainy wedding:
Rockin’ Through the Ages
Back in March I went to Southern California to shoot a Sadie Hawkins Dance with Jonah Gilmore. The theme of this dance was Rockin’ through the ages, so each couple was dressed up as though they were from an era of rock and roll. We had everything from flappers to hippies to 80’s hair bands!
Vintage:Modern Wedding
I had the pleasure of capturing photos from this beautiful wedding last weekend. The bride had such a great look, with a mix of modern and vintage pieces. Her veil was made by a friend and was absolutely stunning, one of the most fun pieces to photograph!
Wedding on the Cape
I adore casual wedding assignments. The bride and groom welcomed me like family and as a result I was allowed to capture some really intimate photos that they will be able to treasure.
Holiday Party Photo Booth Mania!
I had a great job this past weekend at a holiday party. The hostess said “I just want some fun pictures”, so I suggested setting up a sort of photo booth in the basement. I brought lights and encouraged people to have fun with it, and the results are some really spectacular photographs that are not at all your typical party candids!
Will He Ask Me?
I don’t do a lot of large events, but I’ve been working with Jonah Gilmore of Rocket Science Photography on some high school dances this year, and it’s been a whole lot of fun!
Solstice Wedding
After their many years together, I was honored to capture this couple’s absolutely perfect wedding day, many years of happiness await you.
Engagement Photos on a Walkabout
This beautiful couple is getting married this summer, I had so much fun taking them down to the waterfront for engagement photos! We walked all around and managed to do a variety of urban settings. I couldn’t include nearly as many as I would have wanted to since they all came out so well! We [...]
