Judie & Ty

The first time I met Judie was over the phone, because her and Ty currently live in Wisconsin.  Phone meetings are always a little bit more intimidating than a person meeting to me, but talking with Judie was just like talking with a friend.  She was kind and lighthearted and from that conversation I knew that her and Ty would be awesome and I'd have a great time shooting their wedding. Judie and Ty's wedding was located at The Allison an incredible new resort here in Newberg.  Hooray for Newberg finally having an awesome wedding venue!

Leah's belly is getting a little bit too big to be running around with a giant camera for eight hours, so Hannah our new second photographer (who we'll have a blog post up about soon!) is now shooting with me.  She did a fantastic job on the girls getting ready pictures.

The Allison has a gigantic glass spiral staircase where Judie and Ty saw each other for the first time.  Sweet Nellies provided beautiful flowers for the day.  Ryan Hein of Perfect Memory Special Events kept the dance party going on all night!  I've worked on several weddings with Ryan and he's a great DJ and a rad and hilarious guy to be around.I'll let this photo speak for itself...

Judie and Ty, thanks so much for having us a be a part of your wedding day!  We had a wonderful time and so appreciate you and Ty's kindness and gentleness.

Happy Monday everyone, if you're at work, I hope you're dominating it :)

Summer Light | Coming Soon

Is there anything better than the warm summer nights we've been having. For Bryan and I, they've been perfect for front porch sitting, baby room painting, and of course photo shoots! We've been enjoying some pretty incredible evening light and some really special people. Here is a little glimpse of what is coming up on the blog. Leave a comment to tell us which is your favorite photo and how you like to celebrate summer. We'll give an 8x10 print to the beautiful people in whichever photo has the most comments over the weekend. Thanks for stopping by! Special thanks to the Apker Family, Espen, Judy & Ty, Micah & Laura, and Norah Jane for spending some time in front of the camera:
