August was definitely wedding month for this gal. Five to be exact!

I'm still reeling about Sam & Trenton's day though. Who could have predicted that on August 29th, it'd be about 82 degrees with a little fall-feel in the air.

These two are just about as great as they come. The love, the tears, the smiles. What a gorgeous day!

Sierra & Harley~

These two made the ultimate surprise during their wedding ceremony that they have actually been married for 1 whole year and yesterday was their 1 year anniversary! They eloped on the coast last summer, and yesterday was made for celebrating. What a sweet day this was, and a beautiful couple!

The Wade Family~

I've had the pleasure of capturing Matti & Jeremy's relationship over the last 4 years. From our first session together on top of Mt. Ashland in 2022, to their wedding in Portland in 2024, and now their blended family session in Hood River featuring sweet baby Hazel 🥹. A house full of stunning ladies.... Jeremy, you're a lucky guy!
