Clayt & Laura

June 27, 2008

Clayt and Laura couldn’t have picked a more beautiful day to get married! They got married on the lovely grounds of the Millport Conservancy. Courtney and I had a really great day with them!
These two were so funny – they weren’t so much into the lovey dovey intimate moments, as they were the practical details of the day. They have been dating for a good amount of time, and I think they were just READY to be married.
Here’s a touching moment we captured…
The Beginning

Laura was such a stunning bride!

The guys were good sports. Thanks for not dropping the camera Clayt! :)

This is Laura holding her adorable niece. The baby’s parents are missionaries in Japan, so I think this was the first time everyone had met her.

The cupcakes were delicious! I had to laugh when the DJ came over to us and said, “they are about ready to cut the cupcake!”

This last one is my favorite I think! Clayt and Laura, it is evident how much you love God and eachother. Thank you for letting us share this special day with you!

Love is in the Air

June 23, 2008

We had a great time visiting family on our recent vacation to Oregon. My cousin really wanted some pictures of her and her husband (and their very furry baby). So, I did a rather spontaneous shoot of them. It was fun – they were such good sports, and it was so evident how much they loved each other! Here’s few…

To the West Coast and Back Again!

June 21, 2008

Well, my goal was to post a blog letting everyone know we were leaving on vacation, but that obviously didn’t happen…as we are back now! :) We took a trip clear across the country to the West Coast to visit family in Washington and Oregon.
We had a great time! I was apprehensive about how our kids would do – but they really surprised me and did a great job. Here are a few pictures from our trip….

One reason we went was because my grandmother isn’t doing well. I know she won’t remember us b/c of her illness, but I’m glad we have pictures so my kids will always have the memory.

My cousin’s son just couldn’t stop giving my daughter hugs…it was so funny!
Hugs!

We really wanted the kids to say they have “touched the Pacific Ocean” – so we made sure to get to the beach while we were there. It was FREEZING outside unfortunately, so we didn’t stay very long.

We visited the gorgeous Multnomah Falls with my aunt and her boys.

We drove around a lot on our vacation! Poor tired kids! :)

This picture isn’t the greatest, but it is meaningful to me…I have a picture of me and my cousins together in the bathtub when we were this age…about 25 years ago!
