Kendra + Aron: Wedding Day Part 1

Prepare yourself for a very long post with LOADS of pictures.  We ended up having about an hour and a half to take pictures on the temple grounds because some of the family got lost and we had to wait for them to get there to take family group photos.  On the positive side, the scheduled rain held off for the whole time!  Can't beat that!

It is a good thing I took a lot of group shots here, because I didn't get the chance to take many group family shots at the reception. . . which I will try and post tomorrow.  

Kendra + Aron: Preparation

With a temple wedding ceremony starting at 10:00 a.m., 45 minutes away, Kendra's day started early--so did mine.  Here are a few of my favorite shots at her home before leaving for the temple.

Next up. . . post ceremony pictures at the Portland LDS Temple.

Beginnings. . .

Two days ago my "little" brother got married.

We are so thrilled for the two of them.

They've known each other for years and years. . .

And for years she was married to Jed's best friend.

Until he passed away last year.

After all they've been through, we could only smile along with them on their special day.

I can't wait to see what their photographer captured for them.  Of course, I couldn't help but snap a few pictures for myself.

And my girls were thrilled to get a few new cousins to play with.
