Whose fav season is Fall? 🍂

The cooler weather, the pumpkin lattes and the changing colors.

It’s that time of year.

Château de Lis has ALL the color. Consider doing a session there to get the stunning architecture as well as all the oranges, yellows and reds. It’s a perfect spot.

Swipe through to see the château in all its beauty.

What have we been up to? A lot.

It’s been a busy few weeks but not in the way you think.

Here’s a little life update ♥️

- We listed our Airbnb in Brightwood for sale in June and it is officially sold. Yeah, sad but true. It wasn’t working out so we had to end that chapter with a big sigh of relief. What it means is SO MANY Facebook Marketplace listings and so many “is this still available?” messages. Look, Facebook users! If it’s listed it’s available LOL. We had a yard sale and sold most of the big stuff! But conversations for days trying to sell everything under the gun before the the closing date! We are getting there! Anyone need any fake house plants??

- It is Fall Family Session time! I have three different days set aside for sessions. One of those days is already full and the others are filling up so book your slot if you are thinking about it!

FULLY BOOKED

- I was in San Francisco recently for a maternity session and loved the beaches there. Especially enjoyed the trails up on the cliffs giving some spectacular views. I would love to go back and explore even more!

- We have been editing a ton. Lots of galleries up on our screens as we work through weddings while we have a less busy window. If you’re waiting for a full gallery know we are editing away over here!

- 2027 is taking off. Inquiries are flooding in. Meeting lots of couples and hearing lots of love stories. Always fun! Excited to see where 2027 takes us and looking forward to the ride!

- Busy weekend for us this Saturday. Our entire team is working which means lots of weddings! I’ll be at Abernethy Center, Dom and Noah are at The Foundry and Gabby is at The Portland Yacht Club. Be ready for ALL the BTS!

Any other special or big update? Hmmm. 🤔

I think that’s all for now. But life moves fast so I know there’ll be more going on soon!

I hope you are making it over the hump today and have some plans to enjoy the last days of summer!

Happy Wednesday, friends ♥️

Talent, comedy and pure entertainment.

Carson has it all.

What a fun moment to capture.

Will, the groom, loves saxophone so his bride surprised him with live sax during cocktail hour and Carson crushed it.

The best way to start off the post ceremony festivities.

A little peek into last weekend’s wedding at Juniper Preserve with the sweetest & fun-loving couple.

We had it all - sun, rain, “icing”, laughter, tears, moving toasts and some epic dance moves in the cave (scroll to the end for that)

Some of my favorite moments this season happen right after the ceremony, when best friends finally get to come together after the moment they have been waiting for and celebrate. All the emotions. Pure magic.

Congrats N&W 🍾

The flowers were popping. Sunset was hitting just right.

Us to the bride: “Are you able to walk out of the soft dirt in your heels?”

The groom: Swoops the bride into his arms unexpectedly and carries her out.

The moments you weren’t expecting ♥️

Can’t wait for C & B’s wedding ♥️

Can we take your picture?

Seriously, we’d love to! 📸🫵🏻

Our calendar for 2027 is filling up and we already have some fully booked weekends.

To all the couples who have booked - we are so excited!

To all the couples who are thinking about connecting - fill out our contact form and take the next step!

A little update from our life:

- We just got back from Denver for Andreea and Jesse’s wedding! It was absolutely stunning and we are so thankful we got to capture their love story so far. We didn’t realize we’d be shooting at 9,000ft, so we’re adding altitude training to the prep list for future CO weddings 🤣 We didn’t get to explore Denver this time, but we’ll be back!

- What a weekend! Thursday, Gabby photographed a wedding on Thunder Island. Friday, Dom was at Camp Cedar Ridge. Saturday, Gabby was at Sah-ha-Lee Golf Course while Noah covered a ceremony at the Guru Ram Das Temple, and we were at Northstar Gatherings. Sunday, Noah was at Jacquot Vineyards and Gabby was at Mt. View Orchards.

- This coming Saturday, we get to photograph a wedding at Juniper Preserve in Bend. The venue even has a cave, and we can’t wait to share the epicness of it and the couple’s big day.

- Sunday, I’m flying down to San Francisco for a maternity session with the sweetest couple! Can’t wait to reconnect with them and spend some time capturing more of their love story.

But in the meantime, if you need us, we’ll be editing full speed ahead at home this week!

Did someone say busy season? Let’s go!

Happy Labor Day friends! Sending you all the love! Hope y’all get a little sleep in and have some fun planned for today!

Guess where I’m headed!

I’ve been waiting for this day for the past three years.

Right now I’m on a plane to Denver, Colorado to photograph Andreea and Jesse’s wedding.

Three years ago we got to do their engagement session at Artist Point, and it was unbelievable.

The weekend starts with details and flat lay photos this afternoon followed by a sunset session tonight, then their wedding tomorrow at North Star Gathering.

It’s our first time in Denver. For when I land I’ll need some coffee so drop your fav coffee spot recs in the comments 🙏

I’m looking forward to working with this amazing team! Watch our stories for tons of BTS from this weekend!
