09.29.07 Priya & Jesse

What a way to end a busy, yet awesome wedding season! I have the next three weekends wedding-free, but have plenty of work to keep me busy with all the different shoots I've been doing. Anyway, on to today's wedding! Priya and Jesse were married at the beautiful Mt. Hood Organic Farms. The weather was supposed to be somewhat rainy, but I didn't feel a drop of rain the entire day (although it was pretty chilly). Congratulations to the two of you!

Here's a couple scenic pics (you can just barely see Mt. Hood out in the distance)...


There were so many beautiful flowers around, which I wasn't expecting at this time of year...


Some bride and groom pics...
















The ceremony...





Unfortunately, the clouds had completely covered the mountain by the time the ceremony started, but you can see a little of the bottom here...


Jesse's parents...








The reception...


The day felt like it wasn't only about the bride and groom, it felt like a huge family party. Priya's mom and her friends...


Throughout the many toasts, there was laughter...


Shock at some of the stories told (I'll leave it at that!)...








And, tearful speeches...


Although the dog was not amused...


And last, but not least (Priya, this is JUST for you! Sorry Carmen), the smoking monk...


Thanks for looking!
