Eryn & Niall: the wedding

When ever I sit down to do these posts I always think, “ok how do I want to tell this story”… but this time really, I am thinking “how would Niall tell this story”.

The thing is I adore this couple. They are sweet, kind, stylish, and oh so full of fun stories.

Also close to my heart, the groom of this darling couple comes from Ireland, the land of story telling. He is so good at it too! I had SO much fun just listening to these two talk about their love story, wedding wishes and plans over the last year. It was such an honor to see it all come together on one fine day.

The weather was kind to us, the flowers were amazing, the love was palpable. It was an amazing day. I love every second from the last touch of lip gloss, Niall’s friends teasing him endlessly, our stunning bride walking down the isle, dramatic winds during photos, the best toasts ever, the food, (THE FOOD!), the dancing, and the Irish stories being told over tea & whiskey at the end of the night.

It was an amazing day, and one story I am so proud to tell. Check out the HUGE post below for the visual story.

Welcome to the world baby girl…

Just a few short weeks ago, it was my pleasure to capture the most darling baby girl.  She was sweet, sassy, and oh so beautiful. Even if she did make me work for the images, I am so happy about our session together. Oh those cheeks!

I met these lovely folks a few years back at a wedding I was photographing, I am so happy they looked me up when the time came to capture their sweet baby girl. I even adored meeting their charming puppy.

Check out a few of my favorite images…

As you know from your friends I do love a blog contest. If you can get 30 people to comment on this blog post, I will throw in a darling set of brag books on the house.

It’s Tradition!

Hey Friends & Fans!

Fair warning I will be leaving early Wednesday morning to attend OUTDOOR SCHOOL! It is the tradition of my lovely 5th grader’s class to head to the Oregon Coast for three days of camping, learning, and living outdoors. (She is the redhead in the middle of the cute cousin sandwich above) I am super excited to attend and be a cabin mama!

If you need me please email me and I will do my best to get back to you when I return this weekend. I will bring my phone but it will be out of service and spotty most of the week.

sky high love

Every love story is an adventure, but Rhea & Dave took it to a whole new level. This weekend it was my pleasure to capture their special day. We spent time at their beautiful home, captured vows at 41,000 feet in the air on a Learjet. Oh and to top it off Dave surprised Rhea with a special ride home in a helicopter! The whole day was over the top, and oh so special for these two adventure loving people.

Here are a handful of my favorites so far…

Tess: class of 2016

A huge congratulations to Tess, who in just a few short weeks will be graduating.

We met a few weeks ago to capture this special time. I had a great time with her, and her Mom. Talking about the country, future plans, and even met a few farm animals!

Check out a few of my favorites:
