Oregon Wedding Photographer: Enchanted Meadows Forest Wedding


This was a lovely day that began with one of my dearest friends, Dawn Alderman, owner of John loves June. She offers Wedding planning and has some of the most beautiful wedding rentals you'll find in the pacific northwest.

We rose early to allow time for foraging wild flowers (a first for me) prior to the Wedding.  Available throughout the hillsides were abundant patches of queen ann's lace & fern. Afterwards several hours of flower arranging began which was also another first! And while I don't see myself becoming a full time florist, I'll admit that selecting the flowers and placing them with thought into the vases was a lot of fun.  Throughout the entire process the ability to appreciate nature and have some thoughtful mediation was quite nice.

After the flowers were arranged it was back to my camera as usual. Lukily, the rain decided not to impose itself upon the wedding and gave us some beautiful soft light instead through the clouds. Had I brought better shoes for trampling throught the dewy grass, the day would have been perfect.

The bride and groom were gracious and wonderful people. Their families and friends equally as wonderful as we spent the day photographing and being a temporary part of their family.

That's always my favorite part of shooting weddings. Im greatful to share in such close and precious moments.
