Karyn and Scott's Wedding

Karyn and Scott were married on a beautiful hot and bright day at the Portland Rose Garden (June 26, 2009). The ceremony was small and intimate, followed by a large reception at McTarnahan's brewery.  The wedding coverage included three photographers...including Kate, Erin, and Erin's husband Ken. Prior to their ceremony, Karyn and Scott planned ample time to be photographed. This not only permitted us to get some wonderful "getting ready" shots, it also gave us time to walk around the gardens with the bride and groom looking for unique photo opportunities. 

The ceremony took place in the afternoon only one week after the summer solstice. We were inundated with intense sunlight, and shade from nearby trees. This created a massive lighting challenge, but one we took full advantage of. This shoot really enabled us play with shadow, light, and spacial composition. For these reasons, you may notice that the following photos have an 'ethereal' feel to them, especially in the photos that embrace light rays and lens flare.
