Janene + Kaveh, continued… - Portland, Oregon Wedding Photography

Wednesday, June 24, 2009 Posted in Weddings

Alright Janene, my wedding present to you is getting this post up quick - and with a ton of photos, no less! :)

Janene and Kaveh tied the knot this past Saturday at Abbey Road Farm outside of Portland. We had a bit of rain off and on, but it was a gorgeous day. Janene and Kaveh have been so great to work with, I’m so glad I was a part of their wedding!

A Persian wedding tradition, where two hardened cones of sugar are rubbed together above the bride & groom:portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_10portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_11portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_12portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_13portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_14Of course it started pouring as we were setting up this shot - There were a few people holding umbrellas over couples while I arranged them, they ran off and I literally fired off 3 shots and told them to run for it. What can you do, it’s Oregon!portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_151portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_16portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_17portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_18portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_19portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_20portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_21portland_wedding_photography_kaveh_janene_22

Katie - Senior Portraits

Tuesday, June 23, 2009 Posted in Seniors

Just a few of my favorites from Katie’s senior portrait session last week! We met up in Salem for the shoot, I loved this location. Thank you Katie for putting up with my dorkiness at the shoot ;)

There were these HUGE dandelions - seriously the biggest either of us had ever seen. I’m sure somewhere, someone out there knows what they were! They didn’t work too well for the below shots because the fluffy seed things (I’m so technical, haha) were so big that they didn’t come right off. But it was funny to watch Katie try! :)salem_portland_oregon_senior_portraits_katie_4salem_portland_oregon_senior_portraits_katie_5
