Emily and Mark, April 29th 2011
There are several elements of wedding day that make each one unique. The couple, along with their friends and family, is one factor that is always different. There are also the varying elements like the location and the decor. However, the moments that happen during a wedding day; the smiles, the tears, and the gestures, […]

Jessica and Paul, February 18th 2011
Hello and happy March! It’s hard to believe that it’s been a month since we’ve had a new blog post.

Rachel and Jason, October 16th 2010
I love a classically romantic wedding.

I’m very excited to finally share with you a few of our favorite photos from Laurel and Josh’s wedding day.

I can’t believe that it’s almost the end of October. It seems like it was just last weekend that we were photographing Ann and Ira’s beautiful wedding at Skamania Lodge.

Looking back through their images, I fell […]

This winter, when rain has set in, the sky is gray, and the air is damp and cold, I will go back to Leah and John’s wedding photographs to remind me of the warm, romantic, sun-soaked days of summer. You may remember Leah and John from their engagement photo session this spring. We had so […]
