Engagement: Paul and Abby

The biggest recent news in my family is that my sister, Abby, is engaged! As a courtesy to a family member, she let me take a few engagements for her and her fiance, Paul. Despite my sarcasm, I hope they know that they are both very, very photogenic. Thanks guys!

Jeff and Amber: Wedding Reception

WHEW! One of my great friends, Amber, got married today! She asked me to take some detail/candid shots at her reception and here is a taste of what I came up with. Such a wonderful day, a beautiful reception, and one extremely happy newly-wed couple. Certainly a day to remember.





note: the cake was amazing, and the little girl is Jeff's niece.

Lake Oswego

My friend Michelle and I wanted to go out and take pictures. After a little discouragement finding that our desired destination was closed, we wandered through LO and settled on this little area.

Manzanita: Little Apple

Today I took a day off and went to the beach with two of my best girlfriends. Amongst all of the silly photos I found a few that I think show how beautiful it is out there.




a good day indeed.

Here and There.

Today I didn't have to work at all and Abby was home so...
AND, it was nice outside.

Memorial Day: Champoeg State Park

Here are several reasons why I love Oregon so much!











Happy Memorial Day!

Amber and Jeff: "round 2"

While we already had one session of engagement photos in Provo, Amber and Jeff decided that we could not pass up the opportunity to take spring engagements in Oregon. I took them to one of my favorite parks for photographing. The same park where I myself had my senior pictures taken. We had an adventure as the rain interrupted the sunny morning and drenched us all before making it back to the car. But we waited it out and got some great shots.
