The day started with alot of rain, and by the time I joined Shannon & Don at the Riverplace Hotel downtown it was torrential. We started with a few photos at the hotel before taking off to the Falls for the ceremony.
Shannon the bride was in good spirits though, after all is was wedding day.

We decided to try a quick photo down by the waterfront. The marina was really full.


Off to Multnomah Falls. Luckily the heavy rained stopped and it was light showers for the ceremony. The kiss by the falls.

Try holding a umbrella, a camera and a tripod and shoot a ceremony. Thanks to a kind stranger standing there who offered to hold it for me.

And finally a hike to the bridge for some shots. Tennis shoes are a must.


A vintage image of the bridge. She looked fantastic in her tea length dress.

A little fun in the tunnel.

Ahhh…finally some warmth by the fireplace. We all had fun on this rainy June day.

A beautiful sunny February, hard to believe, the grass was so green. And a great day to get married. The Bell Tower Chapel is so charming and beautiful, the light filters thru the chapel and creates a wonderful mood.

Holly and her Bridemaids were alot of fun to shoot, they were a lively group.

A lick on the grooms head…for luck?

It’s so much fun to be a Flower Girl!

Beautiful Holly with the golden hair.

Wheee….

A little excitement after the wedding. B&W Photography tells the story.


Can’t leave home without the dog.

A moment to ponder at the end of the day….

Michael and I had a chance to get away for a couple of days and went out to Warm Springs area for some sun and fun. Here’s a couple of my favorite photos from the trip.

The hills are so mesmerizing with the light filtering though the clouds. The grass was still green due to recent rain.

This was just out off our balcony of the Kahneeta Resort, such a peaceful place.

Two awesome photos of the sunset!

I’ve always liked the lighting around the resort. I decided to do some night shots.


Here’s cool one of Michael.


Still a bit of snow coming through the mountains. Soon to wash down the hills to the valley. Hopfully it will not cause any flooding.

I was very lucky to worked with Kimberly and Benjamin on New Year’s Day at the Community of Christ Church (http://www.cofchrist.org) here in Portland Oregon. It turned out to be a lovely day. The church has some gorgeous stained glass windows, so I decided to utilize them for some beautiful photos. The two of them we’re very excited and they were so much fun to be with.


The earrings, they always seem to be a struggle to put on, but Kimberly got a good laugh from it.



A peaceful moment before the fray.


A little bit of reflection…


Oh what fun it is to get the final word!

Amy & Jordan and Michael and I had a great time enjoying a beautiful fall day at the park. They were alot of fun to shoot, both of them are very athletic, so naturally we had to capture the two of them at play. Here are a few of our favorites.
