Adding another notch to our “extreme destination wedding photographer” belt– we braved the wind, rain and cold this September at the Oregon coast in the town of Oceanside to capture Katie and David in the midst of the emerging rockforms. Later we headed in the opposite direction of Portland to the Columbia River Gorge where we took full advantage of the amazing waterfalls in the area. We do love a good bride in a tree! Enjoy!

We traveled to Decatur on Labor Day weekend for Jamie and Mark’s elegant wedding at the Country Club of Decatur. Just two days prior temps were in the 100′s with humidity just as high– so they were blessed to have this sun-kissed and much cooler day out on the course! Enjoy this peek into their day– check out the Notre Dame ice sculpture!
It’s no secret that Kailey loves the color yellow! Take a look at this little peek into their yellow and gray wedding day in the country town of Wyoming, Illinois.
