A River Bell Wedding | Jefferson, Oregon

If I haven’t mentioned before that I love weddings, I LOVE weddings! I love love. I love it when two people come together & express their love for each other & their friends & family come together to witness it & everyone is happy! I have been in 6 weddings in my life, as a bridesmaid, matron of honor, or ya know, the bride, I have also helped plan them & photographed many more than that & I don’t get tired of it. So, when someone comes to me to talk about a wedding, you can bet I get excited!

Dennis & Karen

When I met these two cute kids, I knew right away that I wanted to be a part of their big day. I didn’t have to explain why wedding photography is important, they already knew! They knew what they wanted & we had a great connection. I’m telling you; they are some of the nicest people I have ever met. When we had our wedding meeting at Storm Coffee in Turner, I could tell that they have such a strong bond, it almost felt like they were already married lol. I also loved the way Karen was so organized!

Planning fall weddings in Oregon is difficult because of the weather. Some of us are glued to weather apps to see what part of the forecast is going to change & this day was no different. Between on & off rain, sudden downpour, & total overcast, the sun finally decided to peek through a couple of times & we were able to get all those traditional wedding photos done outdoors!

We all get a little bit excited about wedding food, right? Please tell me I’m not the only one! There are so many different options for meals, but I have never had PIZZA at a wedding! I don’t think anyone was complaining though lol. Dough-On-The-Go did an amazing job making so many pizzas for all the guests, plus it was really cool to see a pizza oven with wheels lol! & the awesome bartenders from Travelin’ Taphouse kept the drinks flowing all evening!

Congrats to Dennis & Karen!

I wish you nothing but the best in your future together!
