holly's senior portraits at the grand lodge

holly chose mcmenamin's grand lodge in forest grove for her senior portraits and it was a gorgeous fall day.  perfect light and colors.  here are some of my favorites.  congrats on your senior year, holly!  you have a real natural beauty.  good luck to you!  








we doubled up during this portrait session for some quick family shots as well.  this is a really convenient option for busy families of seniors.  :)

fall oregon wedding

i shot these photos during leah and john's beautiful wedding at bridal veil lakes in the oregon gorge.  they were determined to keep their ceremony outside and it paid off.  it rained a bit during our portraits but not at all during the ceremony.  then, when we were all safe under the dinner tents, it poured buckets!  a true oregon wedding.   congratulations leah and john!
