Awarded "Top 10 Barn Weddings of 2015" by Rustic Wedding Chic
Today started off like any other day. I woke up, got some tea, and checked my email. Little did I know, there was a huge surprise waiting for me in my email!
One of my favorite weddings from this past year was featured by Rustic Wedding Chic blog back in October. Now this blog features only the best weddings, so it was a huge honor just to be featured on their website! Dane & Kirsten's wedding was a dream to photograph, with rustic beauty and handmade details all around. (Not to mention they are one of the sweetest couples you'll ever meet!). However, when I woke up this morning, I was notified that of all the weddings they've seen this year... Dane & Kirsten's wedding has been awarded "Top 10 Barn Weddings of 2015!"
A big thanks to the Rustic Wedding Chic blog for selecting this wedding as one of their favorites from 2015. I feel so blessed and thankful to have been given such an honor.

Black Butte Ranch, Oregon Wedding - Tyler & Amy
The skies were blue and the sun shining as Tyler & Amy said their vows in front of a breathtaking backdrop of aspen trees. Amy is from California, Tyler from New York, they got engaged in Paris, and married in Oregon. So naturally, a theme of maps were a fun, little part of their wedding. The view from the ceremony and backyard-deck reception was breathtaking with Mt. Bachelor's snow-capped mountain in the distance. We stole the couple away for a bit to capture some romantic portraits of the two of them while guests took in the beautiful surroundings. At the reception, guests had fun making their own ice-cream sandwiches from a bounty of home-made cookies, roasting the couple during toasts, and partying it up on the dance floor. I would tell you all about how lively their dance party was and how much fun we had just watching it all play out, but I think the photos speak for themselves. :)
Thank you Tyler & Amy for letting us be a part of your wedding day! We're so thankful you let us come along for the ride.
