{Prom 2010} Pilot Rock Senior Photographer

Prom night, the last dance for the senior class.  A plethora of fancy food and fancy dress.  The beginning to the final countdown for graduation.   I have to say they are a pretty good looking bunch of young men and women….Well gorgeous actually!  Here are a few of my fav’s.

{Chantell & Gabe} E-Session | Pendleton Engagement Wedding Photograper

We have been friends for quite some time now.  I have known Chantell and Gabe before they were a couple.  They are so dang cute together.  I have been eying this groovy laundromat with pink and blue dryers for quite some time now, an just knew it would be a perfect backdrop for this hip couples engagement shoot.    The weather was really crappy, and we only had a very small window to get any shots outside in between hurricane winds and rain.  This lovely couple will be married in the forest of the Blue Mountains on August 7, 2010.  Chantell has planned a completely unique, vintage wedding loaded with romantic touches and style.  Congrats you two….

{The Cat’s Meow} Pendleton Oregon Senior Photographer

{The Cat’s Meow} 1920′s slang meaning: Something splendid or stylish; similar to bee’s knees; The best or greatest, wonderful.

The cat’s meow completely defines my latest photo shoot and with one of the most beautiful models anyone could ask for.  We started the day off at one of my favorite spots for shoots, the old train depot in Pendleton.  As we worked our way around town we found some really nifty spots.  The highlight of the day was venturing off to a small town north of Pendleton and finding some really swanky hats and mink stoles.  Which we used straight away at a few of those nifty locations found earlier.  The weather was swell, and the shots turned out gorgeous!  The car in some of the shots below is just like the one sold to Jay Leno from the same guy in Pendleton a while back!

Michelle - 03.28.2010 - 9:45 am
