Gorge Crest Vineyards Wedding Photos | Libby + Steve

I cannot say enough wonderful things about these two.  I spent such a special day with them for their wedding, and from the moment I showed up I felt like I was surrounded by my own friends and family.  I had a blast laughing with Steve's brothers, and hearing stories of their adventures on Mt Hood as kids.  The way that I felt invited into their wedding made the day special for me, and the day flew by.

Mt Hood was a bit shy for us, which she can tend to be at times, but she showed herself partially, never fully, throughout the day.  So much joy in this event, these people were so happy to all be together and even I just as the photographer could really feel it.

Bogus Basin Wedding Photos | Molly + John

"For better AND for worse".  As a photographed Molly and John's ceremony, I heard this and thought to myself "Wait is that usually what they say?  No, right?".  I quickly thought to myself what a beautiful and true statement this is, while continuing to click the shutter button. 

This small wording change, fits Molly and John and their wedding so well.  I met them for the first time on their wedding day, but I instantly liked them, and could tell that they are such loving people and people that what you see is what you get.  Their wedding day unfolded as a beautiful representation of their community, I could write pages about it, but I won't, but I've photographed over 300 weddings in the last ten years, and this one truly stood out.

If all the meaningfulness wasn't enough, with the darkness came a full on onesie dance party, accompanied by silent disco and a gorgeous light show.  I left in the middle of the night, but I texted with John the next day and the dance party went all the way until the sun came up.  Hands down one of the most fun weddings I've ever shot.
