The skies in Portland are always amazing to me and whenever I see a beautiful one I take a photo with my iPhone. So when we shot John & Briana's photo shoot I was thrilled that one of our locations had a perfect sky for them. Jon & Briana are among the busiest couples I have met but finding the time for their photo shoot was well spent. It was a very cold day filled with a perfect elements. Photographing them was wonderful. Briana has such a beautiful, strong and passionate look and Jon being the true gentleman that he is gave frequent compliments to Briana throughout the entire photo shoot on how beautiful she is. It was sweet. I very much look forward to there wedding this summer. 

I never would expect perfect weather for a February wedding in Portland but Jonathan and Colsey's day was nothing but sunshine. Their wedding was held at a quiet little church in Sellwood and the reception was at the beautiful Waverley golf club (originally first opened in 1896). Jonathan & Cosley both have one of those great and contagious smiles that can just light up a room and those around them. Playful and interactive for their portrait session, the couple's real and passionate connection made for some artistic images. As a gift for their first dance, Jonathan surprised Colsey with a original song that he wrote on his guitar and then recorded. It was such a great song and a wonderful display of Jonathan's love for his bride and his gift for playing music.

This is Greg from 94/7fm Alternative Portland. Greg has more passion for music then any one I have ever met. In the very early AM hours Greg is awake and working at the radio station. After that he head over to his music studio in SE Portland where he runs a record label called Arena Rock Recording Company. The first time I met Greg I was walking the halls of the studio building and his door was open so I glanced inside and he said hi with a big smile. He is very nice guy who loves cats, runs a lot and is always up for grabbing a beer at one of the local breweries. He never ever has his photos taken but today he was up for the task and did a great job.

Thanks Greg
