I met Carly and Sean the day of their wedding. They live in Portland, Oregon and planned the wedding from the West coast. But, thanks to Facebook, I felt like Carly and I already knew each other. Carly and Sean and are huge animal lovers, their bridal party too. In fact, everyone in the bridal party has a dog!
They had a beautiful wedding at the Silver Bay YMCA. They read poems to each other instead of traditional vows and were game for all photos. Carly is an amateur photographer and her pet photos adorned each table. She is quite good! Everyone had a fantastic time and there were no complaints about the heat and humidity!
Carly and Sean: To stay with the wedding theme of poems, a line Kahil Gibran's famous poem, On Marriage, "You were born together, and together you shall be for evermore....but let there be spaces in your togetherness. And let the winds of the heavens dance between you."
I wish you both a lifetime of bliss!
Much love,
T.
All of the images in this post are in black and white, Carly's favorite!
Make a photographers day and leave a comment or two.....
It was so hot in that church, but you would never know it by looking at this image..

A little Norman Rockwell...
I normally don't post group shots, but these girls rocked! They were up for anything...our take on the bouquet toss....
All of them have dogs! Loved this wedding!
These guys were great, the "formals" were a blast!
These were the table markers, pretty cool eh!
Rockin' out the first dance..
This very awesome groomsmen (pictured here with his beautiful fiance), carried my very heavy camera bag during the formals..thank you!

And if Tracey came to Portland for a wedding, I could book her to do a family shoot with my mutts! Woo!
Tracey, everyone LOVES the photos and can't wait to see the rest...especially Sean and me! You were right, the back drop at Silver Bay really is a dream for wedding photos.
