Sneaky Sneaky!

Candy and Hula and Mazel-Tov ... Oh My!

John & Kayla get hitched!

As promised, here are some of my favorites from last weekend. Miss Deyla Huss was wonderful enough to let me tag along last Saturday (to see her "sneaker" click here). We had a great time; I am truly blessed to have such talented mentors in the Portland area. I'll miss you guys!

Anyway, how can you not get beautiful pictures of a couple so obviously enamored with one another? Gives me butterflies. Enjoy!











... this is priceless ...


Cheers and Congrats!

As promised, here are some of my faves from my cousin's wedding last spring. Isn't she gorgeous??

1.10.09 Hunter & Ginger's Wedding

Two weeks ago, Mike and I flew back to Montana to attend the wedding of our friends Hunter and Ginger. When they got engaged six months ago, they immediately decided to have the wedding in January in order to take advantage of the best cross-country skiing possibilities. Why? Because that's how they fell in love - night cross country skiing.

They ended up choosing the Izaak Walton Inn in Essex, Montana. Essex is a town (if you can call it that) across from the East entrance to Glacier Park in NW Montana. It literally consists of the Inn, cross-country ski trails and a train stop. That's it. So, as attendees, we were imagining the worst ... a wedding? In Montana? In January? In GLACIER? Long story short, the weather was beyond perfect, everyone was able to get to middle-of-nowhere Montana, and what ensued was a true, Montana wedding - complete with hippie dancing, bongos and a red wedding dress. I will never forget it.

I did not take my camera out on our night skiing endeavor due to my extreme inexperience (both legs strapped to separate waxed apparati are not my forte - I stick to one big board usually), but I did get a few in the dark, basement bar as well as during the ceremony. These pictures are not my best, in a technical sense, but I love them all the same. So here is my "artsy" take on our friends' very unique winter wedding.

Abby and Brian, June 25th, 2008

It's been a while since I posted anything, so I thought I'd add a few that I've done as personal projects (not officially work!). Mike's best friend, Brian, got married in South Dakota a few weeks ago. South Dakota was surprisingly fun and was a beautiful state to spend five days in with good friends. I, of course, took my camera and these are a few moments I enjoyed from the "best wedding I've ever been to" ...

Cameryn and Joshua, May 3rd, 2008

Last weekend, my cousin got married in Missoula, Montana. I was blessed to be a part of Cameryn and Joshua's special day. Here are a few of my favorites, and congrats to the newlyweds!
