Hello September! Gosh can’t believe we’re already almost through with summer. It’s been a very busy year for us and we’ve really been enjoying it. Can’t believe we were at Kasse & Dylan’s wedding 3 months ago! We have lots of films for this year all finished and stoked to post them all.
Kasse and Dylan’s day started far out into the hills of West Linn. From there we traveled to The Grotto in Portland for the ceremony, and then to The Aerie at Eagles Landing in Happy Valley. For as much moving about as there was, the day was very relaxed. The wedding occurred in that small sweet short window of time where Covid restrictions were minimal, and it felt so weird(and nice:) to not be wearing a mask all day.
There are moments in this film that are simply magical. I love so much of it, but I would have to say my favorite moments are from the sunset at The Aerie. By the time we got out to the greens to do sunset portraits, the sun was setting pretty fast and we had lost the golden long light where we were. After some scouting though, we found a hill where the sun was still glowing, and we got the most amazing sunset moments.
I have to say Kasse is the most photogenic person we have ever filmed. Now, we never expect any of our couples to be comfortable in front of a camera because, how many folks go about perfecting that skill? Also its OUR job to make you feel comfortable and look great! I love when a Bride or Groom tells us before their wedding that they are awkward in front of camera, because we have the highest level of confidence that we can make our couples feel great about it, and that’s fun:) All that being said, Kasse did the coolest dreamy magical stuff with her dress in the sun, and we all just had so much fun geeking out about how cool everything looked.
Other notable moments were Dylan’s red bottom shoes(and whole tux in general), The priest’s wonderfully lovely words during the ceremony, and the sibling toasts. It really just felt good to be in a packed reception again with lots of people having an awesome time talking and laughing.
Hope y’all enjoy! Still booking for 2022 and 2023, and we’ll be posting many more films in the coming months.
Much Loves,
Chris
