Mike & Stacey Anniversary

Remember when the weather was warm and the skies were clear just last week? Ahhh me too, well in an effort to make the most of the good weather and to celebrate a very important anniversary I spent some time with the ever so lovely Stacey & Mike. I love that they wanted to celebrate thier 15 years married with photos at one of their favorite places, the beautiful Vista Hills vineyards  Nestled in the beautiful Dundee hills it was the perfect location to take some photos and have a little fun.

Here are a few of my favorites so far:

Mike & Stacey were both just so lovely.

We were also a little silly, 🙂Mike & Stacey thanks again for having me out to your favorite spot. I had a great time meeting you both! I hope you like your sneak peek, I will have more for you soon!

Mike & Jody Love

I love doing engagement sessions, they are always fun and boarder on the silly side. Well some boarder, and some leap head first. A few weeks back I had the pleasure of taking photos of the super adorable Mike & Jodi. Planning their wedding from San Fransisco this was my first opportunity to meet Mike and only my second to meet with Jodi. I wanted some time with these two to get them comfortable with me and my camera before the big day. Especially when that big day was just two days after our session. 🙂 Well clearly we got along just fine, and I got to learn first hand what a goof ball our groom was. Just check out how we started the session…

See, goofball, I love it! We had a great time wandering around downtown Lake Oswego and taking some photos. Here are are a few of my favorites so far:

Mike & Jodi thanks for taking time out of your wedding planning buz to meet with me. I am glad we did. I will have wedding photos up here shortly for you to check out!

Erica + Mike + Banks!

You may remember a certain little squishy faced baby last year, well baby Banks is having his first birthday! He is such an adorable big boy, I can not believe it was just last year we were doing his first session! Banks being one is not the only reason to celebrate, there is also a very important wedding of a certain Mommy & Daddy coming up next month! So to celebrate all the big events and joy going around we arranged another session this time outside in the beautiful fall weather. Erica & Mike were great sports tromping through the weeds and bugs with me. We had a great time, and Banks ran his little tush off. Here are a few of my favorites from our first year/family/engagement session.

Check out the big birthday boy!

The whole lovely family, smiles all around. 🙂

Erica and Mike are pretty adorable just on their own.

Banks is even cuter these days, who knew that was possible.

We had fun running around can you tell.

I can not wait to shoot their wedding next month!

I just know it is going to be a super fun event.

And one last shot of the star of the show. Gah that smile kills me!

Erica & Mike thanks for joining me out on the trail, and for the Latte! You guys are the best. I am so looking forward to your wedding next month! Of course I know how you love the blog challenges. If you can get 30 comments on the blog I will throw in your choice of an 11×14 or another set of wallet brag books. 🙂 So leave some love people.

just one…

From my engagement session with the super fabulous Mike & Jody. I will be shooting their wedding tomorrow actually! Up from San Francisco I had not had a chance to get the two of them in front of my camera before this week. We had  a great time getting to know each other and acting like goofballs in downtown Lake Oswego. I am sure the wedding will be fantastic!

Robyn & Jake the wedding

I am not going to lie, I love me some Robyn & Jake. They are sweet, funny, down to earth, and well, they throw a great party. You might remember these two from their engagement session last fall. Back then wedding plans were a far off distant idea, well Miss Robyn worked all year to make her dream wedding come true, and it was amazing! The venue, the dress, the flowers, the food, all of it, perfect. Even her dashing groom had a blast and looked his best. I love it when a good plan comes together, and I love it even more when I get to be there to capture all the fun moments. Maricar (my best right hand girl) and I had an absolute blast at the ever so beautiful Zenith Vineyards working with Susan from Class Act Events and the always wonderful Vibrant Table. As you can tell with my obscenely large peek here. 🙂

Robyn & Jake thanks again for having me out to capture your day. You two totally rock. I enjoyed meeting all of your friends and family, you truly are blessed to have such fantastic people in your life! I loved every moment of it! I can not wait to get to work on your album, this is going to be a fun one! I will have the whole set done very, very soon. So with that friends and family please do leave a comment below if you would like access to the whole gallery. I will send the link out when it is all ready!
