I do apologize for my leave of absence and keeping everyone in suspense. We have had some major changes happen lately. I'm talking MAJOR. Firstly, we have moved to the Salt Lake Valley in Utah from our beloved little Idaho. We moved two weeks ago and as of Wednesday, there are no more moving boxes in our humble apartment. We are trying to sell our home in Rigby. We will still be making trips to Idaho, so don't hesitate to ask about portrait sessions if you live in Idaho and would like me to take your pictures. Secondly, we have been experiencing technical difficulties here at Tasha Poulsen Photography. They were big enough that it made it impossible to post. Thankfully, the technical issues have been resolved and I will be back to posting regularly.
Onto the happier moments! I had two weddings in Portland while I was there. This couple is Jeremiah and Yana. A couple who has worked very hard for what they have and waited for a little over a year for this very special day. I'm so glad they asked me to capture it!
We did a "First Look" set up. The First Look is when the groom sees his bride for the first time in here wedding gown. This was the evening before their wedding and the lighting was beautiful! Jeremiah was trying to be patient, but he was so excited to see his gorgeous Yana.
Here's that First Look! The look on Jeremiah's face was priceless.
I love this picture. Even at a distance you can see how much they love each other.
Prince Charming is so sweet!
I really enjoy candid shots of people because they are truly in their element. It also gives them time to relax and get comfortable.
I bet you can guess who Yana's looking at, because it certainly isn't me!
Absolutely Gorgeous!
Totally Handsome!
But so much better together!
Jeremiah was the sweetest groom!
And then he unexpectedly pulled this on me!
Their family and friends were so excited for them!
And just a few more shots of the happy couple, especially since Jeremiah was wearing a different suit. This suit was tailor-made in Russia for him. Did I mention that the lovely Yana is from Russia? Her family had it made for him.
This image probably has the most interesting story I've ever had happen at a wedding. As were taking their portraits, a little girl came up alongside me that I hadn't noticed as part of their wedding party. She was whimpering and I turned to ask if she was alright. She said she wanted a picture with them; a little confused, I asked if she knew Jeremiah and Yana. The girl replied, "No" but she still really wanted a picture. Turning to Jeremiah and Yana, I asked if they would be okay with it. Surprised, they were happy to fulfill the girl's request. It was the most humorous thing I experienced that entire weekend.
Thanks Jeremiah and Yana for letting my share in your special and long awaited wedding. You two are a beautiful couple, inside and out. I know you will be very happy together.
