Set in the stunning Columbia River Gorge, the CG Hotel was the perfect place for Jordan and Maria to gather their family and friends for one of the most beautiful weddings we’ve seen yet.

After seeing Maria’s attention to detail for her own wedding, I’m sure she could be as busy as she’d like helping other brides bring their vision to fruition.  Jordan?  He’s just cool.

Jordan and Maria are headed over this weekend for a little post-wedding session, which I highly recommend.  We’re looking forward to seeing them and their trunk-full of props…

Here are a few of our favorite things…

We packed up the SUV and turned a 5 hour drive to Boise into 9 glorious hours with the kiddos, complete with copious potty stops and cry sessions.  Eric, a family friend, was kind enough to invite our whole family, including Mema and Papa–who saved our lives by watching the kiddos during the wedding.

I can’t say enough about Eric and Melissa, they simply were made for each other and waited their lives for the moment they walked down the isle.  Eric had a huge tear coming down his cheek when he saw Melissa for the first time, I couldn’t help but get choked up.

The surprise moment of the night?  During the cake cutting, seemingly reserved Melissa politely took her piece of cake then proceeded to smash it all over Eric’s face, then reached in, grabbed a huge hunk of cake and shoved it her mouth.  Stunning and priceless.

In front of family, friends and the occasional golfer, Matt and Kristin were recently wed at Pronghorn, just outside of Bend, Oregon.

Easily one of the most beautiful and loving ceremonies we’ve seen yet, we counted ourselves blessed to be a part of their day.

Thank you Matt and Kristin…

Kate is a rockstar Senior at Summit High School.  We loved the fact that she was willing to do something a little different, so we did what first came to mind and went spelunking.

Rock on Kate, thanks for letting us be a part of your Senior year!

How cool is it when you get to photograph one of your favorite bands?

You can visit Elliot here, and don’t forget to purchase their new EP!

Here’s a few images from our short time in the studio…

We were blessed to spend some time with the wonderfully cool Steckman family.  The Steckman’s own and operate Cascade Eye-care.  We highly recommend you make them your eye care provider, we love them!

I absolutely love it when someone comes to us and says, “I want something different.”

In this case, Keana came from Klamath Falls to have us shoot her Senior Session and she brought along a dress that she wasn’t planning on wearing again…

Rock on Keana!

What do you get when you have a banker, a police officer, a beautiful family and wonderful friends?  You get “the” perfect wedding…

Blessings to you Tim and Molly…

We were approached by our good friends at Brand Navigation to so some shooting for our “local dog,” Bend Broadband. We were excited to meet and photograph the BBB mascot, Scout.

Scout has an amazing, laser like precision focus about her when doggy treats are involved.

If you’re driving around the Central Oregon area, you’ll see some of these images on billboards, and look out for a fun new campiagn shortly.

Rock on…
