Se_Portland_Engagements.jpg one of my personal faves!

Se_Portland_Engagements2.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements3.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements7.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements1.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements4.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements5.jpg Danielle and Sean are super fun and we had a blast on the photo shoot. I couldn't stop laughing with them!

Se_Portland_Engagements6.jpg Se_Portland_Engagements8.jpg Yes, this is their campaign poster of love.

Se_Portland_Engagements9.jpg Danielle and Sean are in love with laughter, fun and each other. We met up recently at Laurelhurst Park in SE Portland and they brought some fun props like bubbles, candy and American flags that were made in China.... We laughed a lot and had a great time gallivanting around the park finding cool backdrops for the pics. I'm super excited to photograph their May wedding, which is right around the corner. Hope you love the pics D&S!

Francoise_Weeks_Flowers1.jpg Francoise_Weeks_Flowers4.jpg Francoise is a wonderful woman and talented florist who works out of her incredible studio in SE Portland.

Francoise_Weeks_Flowers3.jpg I loved the woodlands class, and I highly recommend taking it if you love nature.

Francoise_Weeks_Flowers2.jpg Francoise_Weeks_Flowers.jpg Francoise Weeks is an incredible European Florist who specializes in weddings and events. I was able to attend her woodland class last week and loved learning all about arrangements and the organic natural elements that go into these designs. Francoise taught me to look at my yard and garden differently and to explore the various textures of different plants and leafs within the design. My finished design is on the left hand side of the bottom image, and Francoise's is on the right. Francoise is great and I definitely recommend her! Check out her website here: www.francoiseweeks.com

This last pic makes my heart smile. I'm so honored and excited to photograph Tiffany and George's wedding this May at the stunning Garden Vineyards. I just found out that their wedding "cake" is Voodoo Doughnuts, and that's what they will be cutting together on the big night. So fun and awesome. Hope you enjoy the sneak preview Tiff & George and I can't wait to document your first dance into this beautiful dreamy life together as husband and wife.

Great pics as usual! So sorry I missed the event and the chance to hang out with some of my fave vendors!

ps. I'm drooling over the Monique Lhullier behind the jewelry... sigh. :-)

what a beautiful composition. i love the fact that the more traditional view of the couple embracing is referenced and framed in the mirror, but the rest of the image has this entirely different environmental element, with the eyes being drawn across the scene to land on the soft focused hands. nicely done!
