Andrea & Adam

Umbrellas Blazing & Temples Rising-

Andrea & Adam's Wedding

I have been behind on blog posts, because the new blog is in process and am looking forward to sharing it with you all soon.

Andrea & Adam were married Nov 10th 2009 at the breathtaking LDS Temple in Portland with a reception the next day in Olympia at the Heritage Room.

Since I am not Mormon, pictures were not allowed inside the Temple we did pictures outside. The Temple in Portland, OR is amazing!

Here is Andrea peeking out of the Temple doors, she was so excited to share the joy of being married with all of the people waiting.
& of course it was a joyful welcome to all.
It rained only after pictures on Tuesday...but the red umbrellas were a great accessory. Andrea gave each bridesmaid their own umbrella to keep, just in case. In fact right as me and the videographer got into the car, it poured buckets of rain. I guess Andrea & Adam were lucky!
Since many people could not attend the ceremony in Portland, the next day was their reception in Olympia, WA at the Heritage Room.

What an elegant reception it was, but my favorite part was doing the bridal party and family pictures outside by Capitol Lake. The autumn color, the stormy skies, who could ask for a more beautiful November wedding?

Fun Puppy! Photos

So our new Chihuahua puppy "Mouse" is inspiring me to get out there and take more pet photos and of course them with their people. This one of A Royal Frenchel (a mix between a Royal Spaniel and a French Bulldog) named Sunshine is so cute I had to get it made into a canvas. So cute. You can see some more of them at www.royalfrenchel.com

I have been MIA while I have been working on a new surprise and venture so stay tuned for more posts soon. I will be also getting a brand spanking new blog up soon too. Busy busy busy...
