Red Ridge Farms wedding day of Lise & Ben.

Lise & Ben are married! Their international family and mixed wedding traditions made the day beautiful. We get to witness so many weddings each year... I try not to shed tears at speeches since if I did, I'd be a mess for 4 straight months each summer! When Lise's dad got up to say a few words, I couldn't hold it. I hope that Josh didn't take any photos of me wiping my tears off! :)

Lise and her family are from the Cayman Islands and many came from there to celebrate her wedding day. Others live in Scotland and also made the flight to come see them marry. The setting was perfect. Red Ridge Farms in wine country Oregon was beautiful and everyone marveled on the views from the balcony. The fresh perfume in the air was a mix of olive oil and lavender. The sky was blue with some wispy clouds and Vibrant Table created a delicious dinner for all.

One more MoscaPhoto wedding that could not have been any more flawless! Thanks in part, of course, to all vendors involved. Here is a sneak peek of Lise & Ben's wedding day from this past Sunday July 10th 2011 with many more to come! Thank you for having us be a part of your day! <3

Country-style, Sauvie Island, farm engagement session.

Finally! The sunshine and heat have decided to show up here in Portland... PERFECT for our latest engagement session shoot! The day was this past Saturday, June 4th, on Sauvie Island, at the fun Krueger's Farm. Old-growth cottonwood trees, red bards, hey and fields of (last season's) corn ;)

Lise and Ben were great! She is native of Grand Cayman and wore a super fun, bright yellow, summery, flowy dress. Loved it for photos! Especially with the evening being so sunny and warm. Great choice Lise! AND thank you for getting your beautiful engagement ring all cleaned up for photos too! ;)

Their wedding is right around the corner! July 10th 2011 is the date, and it will be at Red Ridge Farms in Dayton OR. Vibrant Table is the caterer (YAY!) and our DJ Moe will provide the beats (also YAY!). Love working with talented vendors and sweet couples...!
