About our blog

People say to me all the time: “You're so lucky. You get to go to weddings all the time." They're right. We are lucky. We get to be among people having a great time, looking and feeling their best and participating in what is often the most important day in someone's life.

Here’s the other thing we are lucky to see: the terrific style and creativity that our clients bring to their celebrations. If there is one thing we’ve learned while photographing weddings, it is that a wedding doesn’t have to be expensive to be lovely. We dedicate our blog to sharing the terrific ideas that we’ve seen before and will see this coming season, with a focus on ideas that are simple, elegant and stylish.

All these images are the work of us or our associate photographers from events we've photographed. So, we say "thank you" to our clients who have shared their warmth and happiness with us. 


About John & Theresa Valls

Because we love to travel, we photographed our first wedding together in exchange for two plane tickets to Europe. That was our original plan: we'd photograph a wedding or two, basically just enough to underwrite our love of italian food eaten in Italy. What we hadn't counted on, however, was how much we would grow to love everything about shooting and working together.

John's wedding photography is influenced by his advertising work with agencies, companies and magazines he shoots for. Avoiding an overly-produced style for his photos, John's images reflect his light touch as well as his ability to capture what is descriptive, yet beautiful.

My background in design management helps us create wedding albums that are both contemporary and timeless. I'm an avid believer in the strength of a killer edit, so I work with our clients to compile a photo selection that will meaningful and satisfying 25 years in the future. 

 

Sneak peek: Jessica and Stefan at Cannon Beach

January 8, 2009 Posted in peek, slideshows, venues

Jessica and Stephan at Cannon Beach

What could be better than a December wedding? Twinkle lights and cozy fires. Evergreens and rich colors. Jessica and Stefan’s ceremony at the beach was the classic winter wedding. Jessica and her bridesmaids carried gorgeous roses, red for the bride and white for her attendants. The scent of evergreen filled the packed church, which was decked out in traditional Christmas decor. And because Stefan’s dad is the Pastor of the Community Church where they married, their circle of friends reaches out to nearly everyone in town. Afterwards, the couple danced and celebrated with all their friends at the ballroom of the Surfand Resort.

Congrats to you both. Here’s a link to a slideshow of our favorites. And another to all the photos from the day. To see our ideas for an album for Jessica and Stefan, click here.
