Kristina + Skeets: Sneak Peek!

07-28-11

As you may have inferred from their Whole Latte Fun Booth, Kristina and Skeets made a rockin’ good time their wedding weekend priority!! Luckily for me, they wanted it all captured for posterity and invited me to come along! So I’ve been ridiculously excited to share a few peeks of our time together…check it out and know that more of all of this goodness is heading your way soon!!

We kicked off with Kristina and her girls enjoying cupcakes and wine over manis and pedis at the fabulous Fabu Salon in downtown Portland!

Followed, of course, by their gorgeous, detail filled wedding in South Portland the next day! (Can I just mention how incredibly difficult it was to choose just a FEW photos for the peek!?!?)

And the we did an AWESOME “Day After” session the following weekend…when you don’t have to worry about getting the dress dirty anymore, the possibilities are endless!!

I know, I know- I can’t wait either!! But be patient, I have a whole slew of super fun sneak peeks lined up for you and then the awesomeness that is Mindy & Frick’s Bedford Village Inn affair!!

Oooh, I am just too excited to get to the good stuff to do much talking beforehand…I think these portraits speak for themselves!!! We had such a ridiculous amount of fun, it’s not even funny!!!

Check out Sarah and Denny’s slideshow here!

We began in Sarah and Denny’s neighborhood on their spanky new tandem bicycle…

I love love love this shot!

And then it was off to the Oceanana Pier…nothing like a long wooden fishing pier with a killer view at sunset!!

The light changes super fast this time of day, but I LOVE how blue the sky gets when you leave your shutter open…

The wind started blowing…so fun!!

They are just too gorgeous!!!

This is one of my favorites from the day!

Finished with the session, Sarah, Denny, and I decided that we were starving and decided to drop by the grocery store for some wine and snacks…ummm, wedding dress + grocery store? You know that there was just no way I could leave my camera in the car for THAT!! So amidst very strange looks from other shoppers…

Sarah and Denny…I have had SUCH a great time with you guys!! Thank you so much!!

Sarah + Denny: Day After Session Details

08-31-10

Sometimes the wedding day just gets a little crazy and things get missed amidst the chaos. Sometimes a couple knows that they won’t have time to take any shots of the two of them on their wedding day because they want to get to their guests as quickly as possible. Sometimes the bride wants to be able to take some portraits without worrying about getting her dress dirty or wet. There are a million reasons to schedule a Day After session and all of them mean that we will get some quality, relaxed time for portraits and details that result in fabulous photos!! Despite the name, Day After sessions rarely actually happen the day after a wedding! More often they happen weeks or months later…sometimes even years! But they are always ridiculously fun and I’m a huge proponent of getting to wear your wedding gown as many times as possible!!

Sarah and Denny knew on their wedding day that we were going to do a Day After session. Between the rainy weather and the desire to get to their reception and spend time with their guests, they chose to save some of their portrait time for another day! I won’t give away all of the portrait fun since that is coming up next, but I did want to share some of the details! I am officially obsessed with Sarah’s kitchen chairs, by the way…my ongoing love affair with painted, rescued furniture and all things blue has skyrocketed them to my favorite kitchen table chairs to date!!

Sarah’s fabulous J.Crew sandals…

Denny’s Vineyard Vines bowtie!

Not only were the invitations gorgeous engraved classics, but they featured the Rives family seal and werea beautiful match to Sarah’s parents’ invitation!

As Sarah’s wedding gift, Denny had their invitation engraved on this silver tray!
