This is one of my favorite images on the planet.  It's Crystal and her dad a few weeks ago in Cannon Beach, OR.  There's nothing I can say to emphasize my love for this shot, so I'll stop talking now :)

This photo takes me back to when Crystal was about 8 or 9 and she used to give me a big hug as I headed out the door for my nightshift patrol duties. I miss those days!

the hokes
October 9, Portraits
We first photographed Jared & Katie in January at their amazing Alderbrook Resort wedding.  To say that Katie was a stunning pregnant bride would be an understatement.  We recently had the opportunity to photograph them as a family...Jared, Katie, and Signe.  It's a true privilege to see a family blossom and share a small part of their lives.  Of the things we love about our business, the relationships we build along the way are what we cherish most.  Meet the Hokes.
