Mount Jefferson Majesty

For my wedding anniversary in August we backpacked in to the Mount Jefferson Wilderness Park for a couple days. It was a gorgeous hike with amazing views of the Mountain. We had to set up camp in the dark after taking our time coming down into the park so I could capture this picture.


Here's more from the beautiful mountain and surrounding parkland. For more, you can also visit my Landscape Gallery.

Cabe Family

The night before Nick and Julia's Wedding, we took a few minutes to get a new family picture for the Cabe's.

Nick + Julia Wedding

Nick and Julia had a very memorable wedding day! Intense thunderstorms, catching a break in the rain for their pictures, breaking a bench,
pouring rain in the middle of the reception, squeegeeing off the dance floor for the lovely end to the evening... it all made for a memorable
day that just brought out the laughs, because what else can you do? Congratulations Nick and Julia, the two of you made it a beautiful day!

Now this was fun. Scott had the awesome idea to have pictures done for his girl, and it turned out to be a great birthday gift. Like I said, fun!

Carlos + Angela Wedding

Meet Carlos and Angela! They had amazing weather for a March wedding here in Western Oregon and the day went beautifully!

Chefs For Liberty House | Salem OR Event Photography

Earlier this month was time for the annual Chefs for Liberty House event. Supporters can learn more about the organization's mission, donate, play games, enjoy an amazing meal and participate in silent and live auctions. This year the event was at the Putnam Center at Willamette University.





There were lots of great silent auction items...


...and fabulous live auction items




Chef Alberto "Massimo" Brofferio of the Drunken Cook, Chef Daryl Gossack of Loustic Catering, and Chef Joan Taylor
and Chef Joshua Green of Bon Appetit came together to create an amazing meal for the event.


Heads or Tails! Buy some beads to play the game and see if your choice of heads or tails
matches the flip of a coin long enough to earn half the pot from all the beads bought.


The live auction ends the night and with all the excitement. I love covering this event.


Some of the happy tables at the end of the night.
