Natalie: Senior Session

Rafael

Desperately trying to edit shoots! Here are just a few from Rafael's shoot last week:

Ashley

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend! I thought I'd try to relax a bit, and am now regretting it - It's been a super busy last couple of weeks (and future couple of weeks) for sessions, so I'm feeling a bit buried in photos at the moment!

I still have 7 seniors to blog from the past week, so hopefully you'll be seeing those soon. For now, here are a few of Ashley! She was adorable, and I'm looking forward to working with her and her dad's classic car in the near future :)

Ashley + Colette: Double Senior Session

Ashley and Colette met me at the farm a few days ago to do their senior sessions together. The weather has been perfect for shooting this week, not too hot and no rain!

First up, Ashley:









Next up, Colette:









Thanks girls, enjoy your last few days before school starts!

And for those who are interested in doing their senior session with a friend, email me for more info on how you can save a little $ by doing them at the same time :)

Mallory + Kelsey: Double Senior Session

Earlier this week (is it already Friday?) I met up with Mallory and Kelsey for their double-header senior session.

This is what happens when I choose blog photos in the middle of the nite - yep, this would be Mallory doing almost the exact same thing five times, haha! Don't worry, she's much more talented than that - although the jury is still out on myself :)











And Kelsey, who I managed to mix up a tiny bit more for this post:











Thanks girls, I had fun!!

Off to bed with me... I have five more seniors to blog just from this week so many more updates are on the way! I'll try not to do those in the middle of the nite :)

Morgan + Colt: Junction City Wedding

Continuing from the Morgan + Kip post :) ... Morgan and Colt had the cutest wedding out in the country at Colt's parents' house last Saturday

Great-grandma's pearls (the "something old"):

I love this one, Kip just had to be where his parents were at all times :)

Mmm... beef :)

So this is what happens when you try to get Morgan and Colt to pose together for some cute pictures -

I managed to squeeze in a few serious ones though :)

Gotta throw in this one of Morgan playing air guitar :)

Congrats you two!!

Morgan + Kip

On Saturday I photographed Morgan and Colt's wedding outside of Junction City - I'm working on getting a full preview together, but in the meantime I had to post these of Morgan and their dog Kip (the ring bearer).

Kip decided he wanted in on the photo action, and was great about helping Morgan with her train ;)









I don't use camera straps so I tend to do this thing where I rest my camera on my shoulder with the lens pointing up into the air - I had my big 70-200mm on at the time, and Kip got a little excited and started jumping around - He thought we were going hunting! Sorry Kip, maybe next time :)

More to come!

Marie + Jeff: Portland Wedding

Marie and Jeff, very good friends of mine, decided to get married on the HOTTEST day possible. Actually I shot hotter weddings back in June, but everyone who was outside on Saturday knows it was pretty miserable and humid!



My two favorite shots of the ceremony: Marie wiping the sweat off of Jeff before the big kiss...



Then wiping it off of herself after the kiss.. haha! Just realized I didn't post a photo of the actual kiss, they'll just have to wait to see those ones :)

The nurse and the fireman, awwww:

The girls warming up before the bouquet toss...

This one cracks me up, Jeff dancing in a sea of women... atta boy Jeff! :)

One benefit of shooting weddings for really good friends - after the "important" stuff at the reception is over, all is fair game :)  Erin, myself & Stephanie:

CONGRATS!! Have fun in St Lucia, bring me back a sea turtle or something :)

And thank you to Emily for being my partner in crime for the day!
