Heidy & Grant-Weddings on the Hill-West Linn

Heidy and Grant's outside cermeony and reception was a G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S one; held at Weddings on the Hills, a 5,000+ sq foot historical house built in the 1920's.  I instantly fell in love with Heidy's taste of style and decorative choices.  Congratulations, Heidy and Grant!  Wishing you the best!

Heidy & Grant-Lower MacLeay Park

This couple is so special and were a joy to be around. Heidy has just an infectious laugh, that she had us all laughing by the end of the evening.  Heidy and Grant  have been together for 10 years, and on 6/28 tied the knot. One week prior to their wedding, we did a little shoot at Lower MacLeay Park. Much thanks to my friend Amy, for joining and helping out. Click here for more pictures from their session.

Erin & Steve- Engagement

What can I say, other than Erin and Steve are one cool couple! They are both artists, being glass blowers and they have a shop in their backyard where they work together. They were such a blast to hang out with and the highlight for me was after we wrapped up the engagement session on Mt. Tabor and went back to the shop for a couple more photos of them working together with the glass.  To see more pics of their session, click here.

Beach Family Session-Igor and Margarita

Although this session was over a year ago, I happened to stumble across from it by searching files in my computer.  I forgot how adorably cute the kids were.  It was such a beautiful evening with a perfect sunset to follow.  To see more pics of Igor and Margarita's family session, click here.

Heather & Kristian's Mini-engagement Session Sneak Preview

Growing up, I pleaded with my dad to get a horse so I could train it.  His response was, "Rachel, dogs are cheaper, how about you train them instead?"  Many years have passed, and while dogs are the love of my life (other than my husband, of course), horses have always had a special place in my heart.  So when Heather told me that the place she had discovered for the perfect place for pics was Mountain View Stables, and that she wanted to incorporate horses into the engagement sessioin, I was estatic.

We couldn't have asked for better weather! The grass was so green, the horses were gorgeous and well-mannered, and Heather and Kristian were naturals in front of the camera.  There were so many "blooper" shots that I might end up posting later.  To see more pics from this session, click here.
