Ben and Claire were married at Hoot Owl Hill in Dundee, Oregon. The day was perfect and we could have not asked for better weather. We had a beautiful sunny day with blue skies and a slight breeze to keep us cool. This was a very intimate wedding with close friends and family. You could feel not only the love that Ben and Claire have for each other but also the shower of love that family and friends were pouring out on them. I love watching everyone pull together. Family and friends worked very hard to make this a special day for Ben and Claire. And special it was! This was probably by far one of the funnest group of people. The laughter, the jokes, the wit, the love, the beer made especially for them and imported from California…..It was the Ben and Claire WEDDING, an unforgettable day!!
Ben and Claire thank you so much for allowing Curt and I to be a small part of your wedding day. It was such an honor to not only witness your special day but to capture the memories of your wedding. We love you guys and can’t wait to show you your album and the rest of your images and hear all about your honeymoon.
My favorite of Claire. Claire’s tattoo is in memory of her MUM and the lace on her hair piece is made out of Claire’s mum’s wedding dress. Such a sweet way to honor her mum. 
First look always makes my heart melt!
I did mention what a fun couple they are. There was so much laughter at this wedding. 
A tender moment between Ben and his Grandmother. 
Randy, Claire’s dad, not only cooked for all of the guests but he also manged to make this awesome dessert. And when I say awesome I mean AWESOME! I drool everytime I see these pictures. 
Randy, you did an amazing job with dinner and dessert! Curt and I truly enjoyed talking to you at the reception even if it was for a short time. I hope that our paths will cross again sometime in the near future.
This image says it all! Father, Daughter dance…. PRICELESS!

My favorite of Ben and Claire! 
A huge shot out to my hubby and my favorite second shooter, Curt, and my daughter Vanessa for being the best assistant I can ask for. We make an awesome team!
