This is why I love when children are included in their parents weddings!! The authenticness and meaningfulness that comes out of the photos are memorable in their rawness! Kids can make adults feel that it's ok to be a kid again!

Amie + Amy celebrated their recent marriage by having a party this summer at Aspen Hall in Bend, Oregon. It was my honor to photograph them during this special time where their friends could show their loving support and throw down some dance moves with them!

Plus Size Wedding Dress Photo Session in Paris, France:

Now this is a story you just can't make up! This is about a unique opportunity in Paris where we got the chance to photograph designer plus size wedding dresses. Wendy and my dream was to spend an extended time over in Europe at some point when our daughter Shelby was young to give her life experiences you could only get through the wonderful gift of travel. We have both grown up with open minds and hearts to be at a place in life, filled with gratitude in the desire to connect with different cultures and everything great which goes along with this curiosity and love.

That dream became reality in 2019 as we headed over to Europe for three months. On our way we took a fantastic side trip to Manhattan for an engagement session on the Brooklyn Bridge.

A big part of many of my best memories traveling the world has been with Couchsurfing.org, (check it out)! After finding a family in North Eastern Paris who accepted our couchsurfing request for a full week, (which is longer than the typical 2-3 day stays)! Iohanna and Jean-Luc invited us into their home with their 3 children and it was an amazing experience!

So, Iohanna home schools the children and they have a group of homeschoolers that get together at times for socialization/connection. We went to one of these gatherings and while the kids played, we got to meet some of the other parents including a lady by the name of Carol. I always love learning about what people's careers are about so when Carol told me she had just taken the jump to start a wedding dress business focused on plus size brides I was very intrigued and excited at how we were in the same industry! I remember telling her that I've always wanted to do a photo shoot with brides in Paris and much to my amazement, she invites us to join her for a photo session she was planning for the following week.

I cannot thank Iohanna and family, Carol, and all the models for graciously including us in your lives for this wonderful opportunity in Paris to photograph designer plus size wedding dresses. We all went away from this experience with warm hearts!
