Love in the Time of COVID-Part 2
As luck would have it, Blake and Eli were already getting married in Montana. They were already getting married outside. They were already having their reception outside. So, that worked out. Whew! Just add in some masks and a few more rules and no probs. Business as usual. Thank goodness! They got married on an absolute perfect day, with all …
Love In the Time of COVID, Pt. 1
Isn’t it good to know that not all hope is lost? That there is still joy to be found right now? I’m sure glad for that.
Life as Art
My year wasn’t supposed to start like this. It’s not exactly how I planned it. Nor did my next door neighbor or some of my friends. This last Saturday I went to my second funeral this month. Death is not the way to start a new year. It’s not really the way to start anything, but this is where we …

I think you will be as well once you see these photos. The Dammarells are adorable, wonderful, fantastic and very in love. …
Where the Party’s At
Forget New Year’s, this wedding was the party of the century. There was something for everyone. Do you fancy a snow cone? Check. How about a hoppin’ party with a DJ who’s got it? Check. Fantastic food brought to you by one of Portland’s best food carts? Check. A truck full of beer on tap? Yes, literally a refrigerated …
Perfectly Portland
I’ve been a little busy the last few months…or a lot busy. Believe me when I say I am NOT complaining! Thank goodness for busy. It really does keep me out of trouble. I’ve been in what I have dubbed the “wedding tunnel”, which is exactly how it sounds, very wedding focused. Yea, because I love, love, love weddings! The …
