Grandpa's 90th Birthday - Sneak peek

Last Saturday marked my grandpa's 90th birthday. All of the immediate family were present and convened at my family's farm in Washington. We had a great time with a lot of laughs and photographs! Here are just a few teaser photos during the celebration. Grandpa really enjoyed getting to see all of his family and to share in his special day. More to come!

I did some individual portraits of each family too...

Marc and Katie - Chewelah, WA

Marc and Katie were married on a gorgeous summer evening in Chewelah, WA. Chewelah's golf course and country club was the perfect venue for this outdoor-loving couple! The clouds burst out rain during their rehearsal the night before, but it only made things fresh and beautiful for their wedding day. You could tell Katie put a lot of thought into every detail and it did not go unnoticed! Her dad made the arbor for the ceremony (complete with elk antlers). Even the fathers-of-the-bride's shoes were pink and green. This wedding party was a lot of fun and we enjoyed getting to know them over the weekend. The families were all terrific, relaxed and a good time was had by all. Thanks for sharing your special day! Best to you, Marc and Katie!

Barns of Wallowa County

I grew up on a farm in Eastern Washington and there grew my love for barns. The barn on our farm was/is a landmark in the area, and a beautiful tribute built by our ancestors. I've always loved old barns and their symbolism of America and hard work. They stand proudly, beckoning others to pass through their doors and sit on a bale of hay for a spell. Oh the stories those old barns could tell! Their musty smell of dirt, grease, leather, and barn cats don't make me turn away; I could spend a day inside, imagining people and animals before me using the barn, working, and enjoying its strong, encompassing beams. Of course, some barns are not so lucky. Time and weather have torn some barns apart, leaving just fragile pieces of boards and rusty nails behind.

On our trip to Wallowa Lake, Jeremy and I decided to do a "barn tour" on our way back home. The Wallowa County area has an abundance of old barns. Each time we stopped at a barn to photograph it I'd say, "hey, I can see 4 or 5 more barns just down the road!" We took in as many as we could before heading back to Idaho. Talk about gorgeous beauty. We both decided we want a house/cabin/ranch there some day. Those people are certainly blessed with some beautiful landscapes!
