Some updates...

I guess I'll start with the bummer news first...I was rear-ended yesterday after picking up my son, Noah, from school. We're all ok, I woke up this morning and my neck wasn't hurting too bad, but it looks like the whole back end of my car will have to be replaced. :(



Noah was pretty shooken up, but he seemed alright fairly soon after...



And, Calvin didn't make a peep! lol




So, now on to better news! I will be out of town this weekend in New York attending a photography workshop. I'm really excited to get to work with some really awesome wedding photographers from around North America. I'll try and post some pics while I'm there, and I will definitely try and keep up with e-mails as best I can!

Also, I will be unveiling a brand new website very soon! I know so many of you have experienced hours (okay, maybe just minutes) of enjoyment with the images on my site changing from B&W to color when you hold your mouse over it, but I think this new site is more me, and represents my work better. So stay tuned!

10.27.07 - Erin & Matt

Another beautiful fall day yesterday for Erin and Matt's wedding at Oaks Pioneer Church. It got a little chilly as the evening went on, but I was glad to take advantage of the pretty changing leaves outside! Congratulations, and I hope you have a wonderful honeymoon in Kauai!

I love the colors in this shot of the church...








The beautiful bride...she did her own hair and makeup. Can you believe it? She did an awesome job!








I love this candid moment of them after the ceremony...















The reception at Kennedy School...











Thanks for looking!

DIG Recording

I went and did some shots for the owner of DIG Recording today. I had a lot of fun with my 50mm 1.4, and the kids even came with me because my husband was there recording an album with his band (see the slackers on the couch, lol).




























Aren't they cute!




I love this one of my oldest, Noah, playing the piano.




I love the look on Calvin's face. It's like, "Daddy, you're crazy."






Thanks for looking!

Karli & Nick - engagement session

Karli & Nick are getting married next year, but wanted to take advantage of the beautiful fall colors before all the leaves fall off. We really lucked out with the weather today, I was convinced it would pour just like yesterday, but we were very excited to see some blue sky after all! Nick suggested we go to the Lewis & Clark campus for pictures, and I am SO glad he did, because it is absolutely beautiful there! There are so many photo opportunities, and I'd love to go back there again! Here's a few of my favorites...














He brought his guitar and played a song for her, how sweet is that!





I love her adorable smile...










Thanks for looking!

Greg's senior portrait session

Greg was such a sweet guy, I really enjoyed working with him today. Luckily the weather was beautiful, so we were able to go to the waterfront to get some awesome pics! Here's just a small sample of them...
