Shandi and Kurt got married on a cloudy day, and we were scared for just a moment that it would rain, but we escaped it. You just never know when you get married in Oregon!

A vineyard is such a nice setting for photographs – I love how green everything was in the background.

This was a great ceremony, with a great minister who delivered a message about patience in marriage. I always joke with Eric that I have the best job in the world because I get cake every weekend, but I also get a hefty dose of uplifting marital advice (yes, I listen to the sermons while I’m photographing – I am a multi-tasker)! This week’s tip: “It’s not about marrying the right partner; it’s about being the right partner.”

Be sure to come back tomorrow to see the conclusion of Shandi and Kurt’s wedding!
