I am a huge animal lover and after reading World Without Us (must read) and realizing how many birds die each year (from cats, windows, wind turbines etc) and how hard life is for them in general, I wanted to get a bird feeder and help these little guys out a bit more. I had a bird nest right outside my window and it was awesome to see the little guys grow up and take flight.
Backyard Birdshop is a very cool shop - the staff is friendly and knowledgable , and they have a good, earth friendly collection of bird feed. Box store bird feeds have either lots of fillers or they have seeds that are non-native which can start growing if they fall to the ground.
Anyways, check them out in the Portland - Vancouver area:

This is amazing - Google is hosting the entire LIFE Magazine archive:

What a treasure of vintage photos, from wars to weddings to any other aspect of life.
It is so nice to hear from our clients that how much their images mean to them, and that we were able to make them happy. I got two notes today, and I wanted to share them! The first is from Anna and Brian:
Hi Evrim,
Wanted to send you a quick note that I absolutely LOVE LOVE our wedding album. It’s gorgeous and even better than I imagined it would be. The cover photo is perfect and I loved how you put the words over the glare of the sun, very cool. J
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and get to take some well deserved time off!
Cheers,
Anna
and then I got a quick and nice note from one of our Mexico clients as well, from Amy:
Evrim,
It was wonderful meeting you. If your pictures are anything like your personality they will be great!!!
Amy
Love it!
Joni and Jeff had their wedding with friends and family at the Columbia Gorge Hotel, with breathtaking views of the Columbia River. Their ceremony was held on the edge of the Gorge with the river right behind them. After the ceremony everybody enjoyed the ambiance of the historic hotel.

I am getting ready to email my current clients with designs of my Christmas cards, so sit tight before sending in those cards! They are very nicely priced and turn around will be very quick!!
I think one of the most “oh my god!” moment we saw shooting weddings happened at Allison and Michael’s wedding - Michael reached for the ring shortly before the ceremony, and then realized the rings were not there. The sequence is pretty cool (in hindsight) and the rings came in later after the ceremony and they did a mini ring ceremony. Everything else ran smoothly as Emee from EJP Events did a great job making sure everything ran smoothly.
Other cool thing highlights: Allison and Michael’s dog, from Oregon Humane Society, was their dog ring bearer (and did a great job!) and they also had a fire dancer!
Catering was done by Vibrant Table, and make up was by fabuluous Event Cosmetics. The scene was beautiful and I love oregon farm weddings!

Christine and Matthew were married in Salem’s Zenith Vineyard. The vineyard was in a beautiful rural area, we even crossed the Willamette River on a ferry boat to get there, it was pretty cool. Everything looked spectacular from the table settings and food by Vibrant Table to the flowers by Green Thumb. The whole day was quite remarkable, especially the sunset over the vineyards. There was also the super funky DJ Nickel that they brought up from LA who had the dance floor packed the rest of the entire evening. It was so much fun!
