One more from Kristen & Joel’s wedding. I recommend listening to the song Michicant by Bon Iver to accompany this photo. Full post coming soon!

I arrived at Willamette Mission State Park for Kristen and David’s engagement session, only to discover the park closed due to flooding. The clouds were threatening, but there was a break in the rain so Kristen and David and I decided to walk into the park. Ten minutes in and it basically starts “speed walk to your car” pouring, (not to be confused with “run to your car” pouring, yes I just made that up). So that’s what we did. Luckily on my drive in I was scoping out covered areas because I knew we would probably have to deal with quite a bit of rain, and I had found an old abandoned fruit packing shed. We headed to the old, ran down, tree growing through the roof packing shed and it was awesome. In the moments where the rain subsided we stepped outside and in the moments when it came down we stood in the places where the shed still had a roof. It was an awesome session, definitely an adventure and Kristen and David were hilarious and awesome.
Kristen and David, thank you so much for doing an engagement session with me! It was so great meeting you both and I had a great time hanging out!

Anyone willing chain up their car for their engagement session is awesome in my book! So glad to be working with such adventurous people. Can’t wait to share more from this session, full post coming soon!

If you take the time to look through these photos, you’ll know how much fun I had at Julie and James’ wedding. A lot. Julie and James are both incredible, but so were their wedding party and family. The groomsmen even stood on a high narrow ledge (see below) for me in Pioneer Courthouse Square.
The people are what made the day over the top awesome, but we also had some really fun, unique venues. We started shooting at The Nines, one of my favorite hotels in Portland. Since the weather was perfect (by perfect I mean not raining, it was FREEZING though!) we explored downtown Portland a bit and then headed to The Old Church for the ceremony and reception. Great people, great locations and also great vendors. Nicole Wagner dominated Julie’s makeup and Courtney Derrick did a beautiful job on the flowers, cake and catering. Alright Photos!!
Julie and James, so great working with you both, thank you so much for hiring me to shoot your wedding!

One of the good things about torrential downpours is reflections. Kristen and David, full post coming soon…
