Well, we’ve officially been wedding photographers for five years (although this depends on who you ask — I say six since I count our very first year shooting friends’ weddings — Tim being a more conservative counter says five). This year has by far, been our favorite.

I still remember one year ago setting a goal to shoot out of state — this year took us to Catalina Island, Seattle, Wyoming — and in just a few weeks Kauai! Over half of our weddings this year were outside of Bend, and it was SO MUCH FUN!

Being a wedding photographer is more than just having good gear, being professional and taking great photos; it’s about recognizing what you love about each couple, and letting that shine through in the images. We’ve been able to meet some of the most kind, gracious, creative and adventurous couples this year. We really can’t express how grateful we are to them for entrusting us with such an important event in their lives.

Here’s our little tribute to those couples. We are so humbled to be your storytellers.
