a couple of weeks before matt and paula’s big day, miss rendy and i took paula out in portland to shoot some bridals.  we had a lot of fun, and paula was up for anything…which made our jobs that much easier!  i was a wreck about her dress the whole time, as we walked up and down the streets, and in and out of stores…but paula just said “no one is going to be looking at my dress anyway, they are going to be looking at me.”  she’s so laid back.  love that:)

paula’s easy going attitude really came in handy when we headed back towards home to catch the sweet light in a field near my house.

i took this as a good opportunity to play around with my lensbaby…and i’m so glad i did.

thanks for trusting me paula, and thank you to rendy for coming out and shooting.  we really had a blast:)

i’ll leave you with matt and paula’s wedding video shot by the amazing Tyler Faires.  check out his site.  he is extremely talented, and super fun and easy to work with.  he came along on the “after” session i did with matt and paula, and got some really great shots.  so if you are ever in need of a videographer, he’s the man.  i’ll let the video speak for itself:)
