Rae and Troy’s Wedding: Preparations

November 17, 2011

Rae and Troy were married on the shores of the mighty Columbia, close to Hood River. In October! As it so happened, fortune favored the brave, and the rain held off for an intimate and distinctive celebration.




Dan and El

June 4, 2010

As was to be expected, I spent far more time wrangling my toddler (pictured right) than taking photos at Dan and El’s wedding (pictured left). Was so wonderful just to be there… and in a non-professional capacity!

Will and Lizzie: Formals

April 13, 2010

I approach formal shots with a certain degree of trepidation; posing people doesn’t ever feel right, and at the same time you are aware that these are the pictures that will grace the walls and mantelpieces of relatives for decades to follow. Still, it went OK, and the little girl recovered from her spill!

Will and Lizzie: The Reception

Quite apart from the people, there was sumptuous food and a short speech – and a rather splendid cake with a rather splendid topper!

Will and Lizzie: Informal Portraits

April 12, 2010

I’m not sure I do anything quite as well as candid portrait photography, and wedding receptions present the perfect excuse to indulge myself.

Will and Lizzie: The Ceremony

April 9, 2010

The limited space and challenging lighting were of course only a distraction for the photographer.

Will and Lizzie: Preparations

April 8, 2010

The hour before the wedding… the bride and her girls prepare, the table for the wedding breakfast is set, the groom stares pensively at his BlackBerry…
