You two are just so fun together! I love your story and it was such an honor to photograph your engagement pictures!! Not to mention, I am delighted that we were able to track down some snow!! I cannot wait for your wedding this summer.....
We Steal an Hour from Study & Care
“when breezes are soft and skies are fair,
I steal and hour from study and care,
and hie me away to the woodland scene,
where wanders the stream with waters of green,
as if the bright fringe of herbs on its brink
had given their stain to the waves they drink;
and they, who’s meadows it murmurs through,
have named the stream from its own fair hue.
while o’er them the vine to its thicket clings,
and the zephyr stoops to freshen his wings,
I wish that fate had left me free,
to wander these quiet haunts with thee,
till the eating cares of earth should depart,
and the peace of the scene pass into my heart;
and I envy thy stream, as it glides along,
through its beautiful banks in a trans of song.”
Thank you, Lauren, for inviting me to join your afternoon of exploration and play! It was such a breath of fresh air... quite literally.
Best Treasure Hunt Possible | Portland Engagement Photographer
Well folks, it is mid-January of a new year! Unbelievable. I have been busy with reorganizing life (post-holiday pick-up) and booking weddings for this year! Of course, there are a few side projects happening, like reupholstering and refinishing two bergère chairs and experimenting with the recipes in my new cookbooks!
One story that I had the pleasure of photographing was the precious and creative proposal of Daniel & Rebekah! Congratulations, you two! What a delight it was to hear your story and see the bits and pieces of that story unfolding in a scavenger hunt!
Daniel... you found a gem.
And off he goes, before his lovely girlfriend showed up for their coffee date!
