Kaelene and Helgi - Mount Pisgah Arboretum Wedding, Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer
To say that this one was one for the books would be an understatement. There were so many little pieces that came together for the day to be perfect and magical, but a lot of those little pieces had to travel 6,184 km (which I had to translate into miles via Google to 3,848 for all of us Americans) to get here. Kaelene and I are from the same small town, Creswell. We knew of each other peripherally (she was the same age as my younger brother) and, like all good small town kid


Travis & Mikaela's Backyard Wedding, Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer
Happy one month anniversary to Travis and Mikaela who were married last month in a beautiful backyard ceremony. The day dawned exceptionally smoky and warm and at first, I was so worried that the photos would be negatively impacted by all of that haze! On our way to the wedding site, we saw multiple firefighter base camps (which was actually sort of cool!) and from the ceremony site itself, we could see a location where firefighters were coming out of the forest and switching


Tessa + Tyler, Cottage Grove, Oregon Wedding Photographer
Tessa and Tyler were married at the Living Faith Assembly of God late last month in Cottage Grove, Oregon. It was a gorgeous church and a beautifully sentimental day of love and family. The day was so perfectly crafted to be about Tessa and Tyler. I loved all of the delicate details that were incorporated throughout the venue. Even the entry table had one of the most amazing "guest books" I had ever seen - a large, wooden sign with two deer incorporated into larger trees with


Lindsay & Ryan's Benson Hotel and Leach Botanical Garden Wedding, Oregon Wedding Photographe
Lindsay and Ryan were beautifully married on a Friday in late September. All week, the forecast called for rain but somehow, it held off and we ended up with a partly sunny, beautiful afternoon. I do not typically travel for weddings, but I was not going to say no to Lindsay... First of all, I have known Lindsay for almost 10 years. She and I have a lot of the same best friends and our circle of people definitely know how to throw a party. When she told me she was getting re


Chele & Kyle's Wedding Day, Mount Pisgah Arboretum, Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer
Michele and Kyle will always have a special place in my heart as they are the only couple who has ever booked me two years in advance! I remember feeling so privileged and so excited about their wedding from the moment I met them. They are so very sweet to each other and naturally perfect posers. Plus, they were a referral from one of my past favorite Pisgah couples, the Mintzes from 2014! We were slated for success! Of course, nothing ever goes quite perfectly at weddings. T


Kristen & Luke's Chic Orchard Wedding at Jack Scott Farms, Lebanon, Oregon. Eugene, Oregon W
Kristen and Luke had a stunning wedding last weekend at Jack Scott Farms in Lebanon, Oregon. Kristen was sent my way by my friend from high school, Darci, and I must thank Darci a million times over for sending this sweet, loving, beautiful, and camera-aware couple to me! I was welcomed on site by the bride's out-of-this-world bouquet (seriously, popped right off of Pinterest) crafted by the talented Amanda Dant of Morning Glories Floral. After taking an abundant number of ph


Lydeea & David's Timeless Wedding at Albany Golf and Event Center. Eugene, Oregon Wedding Ph
David and Lydeea kicked off my 2016 wedding season earlier this month at the Albany Golf and Event Center - my first time at the beautiful venue. When we first met last year, I fell in love with the little details they had already planned out for their wedding day. I particularly loved their color scheme and the timeless elements they were able to incorporate utilizing the indoor venue. It was obvious throughout the day how head over heels David and Lydeea are for each other.


Sydney + Wade, Village Green Resort Wedding, Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer
Sydney and Wade are one of the most sweet and caring couples I have ever been fortunate enough to photograph. Not just to each other, but even to me! Their wedding day forecast was questionable, in true Oregon October fashion, but the ceremony was set up outdoors in the beautiful garden at Village Green Resort. An hour before the ceremony, the rain started. There was a covered pavillion with the beautiful fountain as the backdrop and Sydney and Wade made the last minute decis


Jennifer + Junior. Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer, Lane County Weddings
I felt so fortunate to be a part of Jennifer and Junior's wedding day. When Jennifer first contacted me, she asked what dates I still had available for the summer because she knew she wanted me as her photographer - biggest compliment EVER! We met for the first time with Junior and I knew these two were so head over heels in love that their wedding day would be wonderful! They did not disappoint! The day dawned a beautiful August morning. The couple got married at Jennifer's
