Madison: Family

Ok I cannot believe how fortunate we have been lately with this amazing weather!  I met Madison and her family down at Esther Short Park for a session and we had a blast!  Being just a little over 18 months old Madison had a lot of energy and a desire to see and conquer the world!  So that’s exactly what we did.

Here are a few of my favs from our adventure…

Erin & Coby: Wedding

Photographers feed off emotion.  It’s what we live for.  So of course weddings are the highlight of what we do because let’s face it, the emotions tend to run wild.  Sometimes in a bad way, but to be honest I have been blessed with working with some AMAZING couples and consider myself fortunate for not having to deal with the bad yet.  Tears of joy, smiles, laughter, those long gazes into each other’s eyes, passion, yep that’s what I get to work with and I LOVE it!  So of course Erin and Coby brought their A-Game and I just froze the emotion in time.  It’s what I do best. 

 For those of you who do not live in the Northwest let me tell you a little secret.  If you plan a wedding in March there’s a 99.9% chance that it will rain.  God was definitely showing his blessing for these two because we didn’t just get sun, it felt like a beautiful summer day!  Or maybe that was just cause I hadn’t seen the sun for so long… 

Erin and Coby your day could not have been more perfect!  I am so excited for you guys in your journey ahead and wish you all the happiness and love that God can bestow upon you! 

With the awesome weather we got some amazing shots of Erin and Coby.  What made it even better was their desire to do a First Look before the wedding.  Brides if you want GREAT shots with your groom this is definitely the way to do it!

Breck: Senior 2010

I honestly sat here a while trying to figure something witty or sentimental so say.  Then of course the thought came to me,  "Johanna," my thought said, " you know most people probably don't even read your blog anyway. They just come to see the photos."  That's when I decided I just need to let Breck's photos speak for themselves.

I just hope they tell you how beautiful she is inside and out.  That she has a heart to serve which makes her an incredible leader and that she will touch and change other people's lives just by being around them.  Because of her strength in knowing who she is and above all her love for Christ.


So photo's: speak...

Michelle & Tyler: Wedding

One thing I love about weddings is how unique each one is. Styles… personalities… love… all so different in their own way and I get to experience it all. I LOVE what I do!

Michelle and Tyler are no exception to the rule. I had a blast with them and they were so easy to work with, so trusting and open to my ideas. Pretty much they were a photographers dream. They got married at McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse in the coolest looking barn I have ever seen. Where does McMenamins find these places?

Michelle and Tyler thank you so much for letting me a part of your special day. It was a pleasure to witness and see how God has brought you together. I pray that He would bless you as your love for each other grows more each day. Which it will ;)

On to the photos…
