Just couldn't resist. This is on our way to the Seattle Mariner's game.

Casey & Racquel Wedding (previews) - Salem, OR Wedding Photographer

Just a few previews from Casey & Racquel's wedding....!

Tobey Family - Salem, OR Family Photographer

When I got the call From Cecelia Tobey requesting to do family photos at the beach I knew I was in for a ride. I've known the Tobeys for quite some time, have been close to Dot Tobey, in fact, it was Dot who introduced me to Ryan, my boyfriend. Lots of character and plenty of quirks, the Tobey's were both a challenge and a joy to capture on camera!

Kevin and Cecelia are parents to four beautiful daughters, Sarah, Amy, Dot (short for Dorothy) and Natalie (how's a linguistics specialist in the Navy). Sarah, the oldest is married to Sam and they've got two boys, Daniel & Kaden...So cute!

Amy flew in for a visit from Oklahoma and Natalie from her Navy base (??? I can't remember where) to spend some much needed time together. Sitting at the table with them for Sarah's homemade fajitas after the shoot the camaraderie, and laughs were as plentiful as fresh salsa.

Meet the Tobeys.

Wayyyy Overdue: Racquel & Casey's (Engagement) - Salem, OR Engagement Photographer

You know an engagement blog is overdue when you just shot the wedding two days before.

Getting to know their families over the weekend has helped me get to know these two individuals so much, and see why they love one another so sweetly.
