Thirteen is a magical number for Kim & Kris. These two disregard the superstition that 13 is unlucky. In fact they rejoice in Friday the 13th because that is when they met. They met at a local bar that they both frequented but it wasn’t until that “lucky” day that their paths crossed. Kris stuck with the 13th theme and proposed to Kim on September 13th. On their way home from a fun weekend in Bend Kris stopped at an overlook. While Kim was checking out the view Kris was getting down on one knee. Kim said she sobbed tears of joy… and of course, said yes! So when is the wedding? June 13th! Kim & Kris will share their marriage vows at the historic Balch Hotel in Dufur, Oregon. I know it’s going to be a beautiful rural wedding and a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to photographing their wedding!
Kim & Kris- it was so much fun shooting your engagement photos. I love country sessions, so thank you for walking through tall weeds and getting some mud on your shoes. …Do you think you’ll have 13 children? 😉 I hope you enjoy the photos and I will see you both in June.






















Alison - Lovely photos! I especially like the one with the leaf in focus with the light shining through it.
Geoff (Steep Stories) - What a wonderful story. Truth be told, Friday the 13th is only unlucky because a certain grandmaster of a certain knight’s order was executed on that day.
Glad to see folks are taking it back.
Catherine - I love that one of them dancing in front of the barn! So gorgeous.
Sue - Perfectly paired! You’ve captured their natural emotion! Love the BnW of them just laughing!
