Ummm....HELLO!!! This girl is stunning with a capital 'S!' Meggie is about to enter her senior year of high school and what better way to start off the year than with an amazing senior photo shoot!? She, her family, and I had met before the shoot to discuss her style, her hobbies, what she likes, and what locations/styles would truly bring out her stellar and fun personality. We decided on the Lewis & Clark College campus, the water front on the Willamette River, and Franklin High School, which were all absolutely perfect for the diversity of styles we were going for! The day of the shoot I sent Meggie to get her hair and makeup done by the amazingly talented ladies at Bliss Salon and Spa in Portland, and then we were off! She was so easy going, light hearted, and funny the entire time! She's also super involved in her high school on the cheer team and as the Spirit Commissioner on student leadership. Amazing. What a pleasure it was to spend my evening with her and her mom! During the consultation, Meggie also said that she loved the idea of the floral crown and as soon as the words left her mouth, I knew exactly which florist I would go to for it! Seventh Stem Floral in Portland made this absolutely jaw-dropping floral crown! Leave some love in the comments section for Meggie, Bliss Salon, and Seventh Stem Floral! Congrats and have a spectacular senior year, Meggie!!
I couldn't have been more thrilled to capture my beautiful cousin Joy and her new husband Chris on their special day! The wedding was held at Camp Arrah Wanna near Mt. Hood in Oregon, and took place right at dusk. It couldn't have been a more beautiful setting! All of the little details in this wedding were absolutely perfect for the location and fit their fun, laid back personalities so well! Joy was absolutely stunning and the two of them were just so beautiful together. After the breathtaking ceremony which was in a gorgeous secluded wooded area, we went to the lodge for the reception and the love between them and for them was incredibly evident! Family and friends spent the evening speaking about all of the ways that Joy and Chris are amazing people and are perfect for each other. The highlight of the evening though, which I think had everyone in tears, was Chris' touching speech about his bride. Such an amazing evening and I was so blessed to be able to capture it for them!
