    when you mix artist with geek you get photography :)

    Albums, Albums, Albums….

    Aside from actually taking the photos, one of my favorite parts of being a wedding photographer has to be designing the album. I love the process of retelling a wedding story through photos. Jenny & Matt’s wedding this summer was absolutely beautiful. Taking place at the Nine’s Hotel, then the stunning St. Mary’s Cathedral, and then the always beautiful Portland Art Museum.  I am just received their album back from print and man is is beautiful!

    I love that Jenny wanted to do a full page spread of this image:

    I hope all you lovely blog readers are staying warm out there! More babies and even a winter wedding coming soon on the blog! I also spending my time lately meeting with lots of 2001 wedding couples. If you or anyone you know is getting married soon contact me asap. My calender is starting to fill up fast!

    in honor of the drooly one I spend so much time with these days…

    As you lovely blog readers know I had a baby just over 2 months ago, many of you have emailed, blog commented, twittered, facebooked and called with your congratulations. I have felt very loved thank you all so much! To say thank you I want to give you all something back. A blog special! Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your mama I am running a special!

    Any baby or kids sessions booked between now and Mother’s day (Sunday May 9th) will come with a $50 print credit in honor of my sweet chubby babies. :) This would also work towards a gift certificate too, speaking of Mother’s Day!

    I have a few spots left in May & June and lots more availability in this summer months but now is the time to schedule. Once wedding season really starts rolling my calender gets packed, so contact me today to save $50!

    I look forward to seeing you all, and some new faces too this year!

    decorating my dining room for Haiti

    Last month I had the privilege of participating in an auction put on by some ridiculously talented photographers.

    The website “Switch Cities“  is run by an eclectic group of wedding photographers from all over the world. A few of them met in a photographer’s forum I used to regularly check into so I have been a fan for a little while. They do some great modern scenic work that is really inspirational to this girl who has little to no talent for landscapes. Well last month the Switch Cities twitter stream was all a flutter about an auction for Haiti, it started small, but soon grew into an amazing fun raiser! The end result of two different auctions was over 4K as far as I understand. These folks did some great work, and I was lucky enough to have the winning bid for an absolutely beautiful 16 x 24 canvas of Seattle by the lovely and talented Gabe of Gabriel Boone Photography.

    Check it out.

    We had been searching for the perfect print for our new dining room for some time, and the color was dead on with the warm grey I picked out. And of course it was for a great cause!

    Piece by piece will will get this new place put together!
