Jessica Lemmons Photography Blog, Longview Washington (Wa.) photographer.

It feels like just yesterday I was photographing Shay’s senior photos.  Well…..she grew up!  Met a handsome young man who swept her off her feet and when he asked, she said yes!!!  I was honored to be a part of her special day.  With as many times as I’ve photographed her and members of her family, I almost felt like family at this wedding.  It was so gorgeous – these two were SOOOOO creative with all of their wedding details.   I had fun following her blog as she got ready for the big day and I was not disappointed at all!   These two were so in love…..in fact there was one moment towards the end of the day where Mike scooped Shay up to give her a kiss, tripped, fell, tackled Shay to the ground and in the process ripped her wedding dress a good 10 inches.  Most brides would have cried at the sight of their ripped dress….Shay burst out laughing and then kissed Mike while laying in the dirt and grass.   It was the cutest thing EVER.  :-)  And I’m not going to lie, both my second shooter Cindy (who did AMAZING btw!) and I both teared up several times during their ceremony.  We looked so funny sniffling and grinning in the back!

And lastly…..my favorite image of the day!  :-)

My youngest sister turned 14 back in August – and what did she ask for for her birthday present from me?  Pictures of course!   We had a little session out near my parents home this summer, and she looked adorable for it!

These guys were so fun!  We did the session at Willow Grove back in July, I LOVED that they all brought sunglasses for a photo.  Thank you guys for having me as your photographer!

When Casey and Monica came to me last year to book their wedding I thought they were so cute – and so was their little boy!   He was SUCH a charmer, I totally fell in love with him!  C & M had a themed wedding, and it was new theme for me – Camoflauge!  Both of them are avid bow hunters, and so of course it made perfect sense to incorporate that into their wedding.  I had a lot of fun coming up with creative ways to incorporate the bows and rifles into the photos – the group photos were a blast!

Thank you Casey and Monica!  Lots of blessings to you guys in your new life together!

This is late in coming, but I wanted to share from two of my July mini-sessions – You might recognize both families from their sessions here and here.  The kiddos have grown lots over the last year, and it was great to see them again!!  Thank you guys for having me as your photographer!
