Oh man, where to start with these two? They’re just the type of people who make me so thankful for my job. They were so easy going, happy, and in love. What more can I say? Emma and Ethan’s wedding day was absolutely perfect! Sunshine and a light breeze in June. The bridesmaids and groomsmen […]
I have absolutely LOVED getting to know Casey and Drew. We had so much fun wandering around Portland for the Engagement Session and of course Casey was so much fun to photograph in my boudoir studio. Then at their wedding I learned that Casey and Drew know how to throw a good party and their friends know how to have a good time.
Casey and Drew were married at Langdon Farms on a very warm Saturday in August. They both got ready in the White House and we got to capture some fun moments where the guys and girls were out on the porches but couldn’t see each other. And then the bride and groom had one of the sweetest first look moments under the big tree by the pond. I think Drew was trying to keep his emotions under control, but really, what’s the point? Women like a guy that can show his softer side and photographers just eat that crying stuff up! Sorry Drew. 🙂
I loved getting to hang out with Casey and Drew on one of our recent sunny afternoons to shoot their engagement session. They’re kind of ridiculously adorable. It was a really fun and laid back shoot because we just went around to all of Casey and Drew’s fun date spots in Portland. The Matador is their most beloved Portland restaurant and of course Salt and Straw is their favorite place for dessert! Mostly though, they’re just obviously head over heels for each other and a perfect match! I can’t wait for the wedding at Langdon Farms this summer!
Some of my favorite wedding images are from the moments right after the first kiss when the bride and groom are announced as husband and wife for the first time. The first kiss is of course important to catch, but the looks of sheer joy right after are unbeatable! I’ll be sharing a few more of my favorite moments from 2014 but I wanted to start here because I think its a really overlooked beautiful part of the day.
Now this is what I really love about being a wedding photographer. Each wedding is like watching a movie. I get to see nervous excitement before the wedding, tears of joy and disbelief when couples see each other for the first time and of course, full on bawling during the ceremony! I just feel so lucky that I’ve had so many wonderful couples trust me with their most intimate moments.
I can’t quite share all of the gorgeous wedding details and fun reception dance images with you yet, but I have some sneak peeks of three very in love couples that I photographed the last three weekends!
