Back yard weddings are my favorite and August produced another beautiful PNW day.  Tyler and Aubrielle said "I do" in Tyler's parents(Todd and Stacy Robinson)beautiful back yard meadow.  In Memory of Melanie Plagerman Aubrielle rode Melanie's horse Gus into the yard. Gus did great:)  That's just one of the many personal touches of this amazing day. We loved being a part of it. Congrats Tyler and Aubrielle!!

Congrats Graham and D.J.! You are loved! 

D.J. knew what she was doing when they choose Lairmont Manor.  It's just a stunning estate and as of now D.J. is going to be the wedding coordinator there.  This will be a perfect fit for her.  She planned their day to a tee (Golf tee that is;)  AND her working at Alicia's Bridal didn't hurt.  She found a beautiful gown and wore her dad's wedding ring in memory of him.  In loving memory of Garry Davis. 

Can I just say...I loved shooting this wedding!  These two are just a couple of great kids.  Graham is a friend of my son Alex's and happens to be a groomsman. And it was fun to see all the guys from their class.  And then through Graham we met his family and then D.J and her family.  It's fun how that works:)
