Baker Maternity Shoot

We have some of the greatest people as friends here in Portland.

And they are about to have one of the greatest babies.

Meet Erinne and Travis.

And Charlotte.

We met with them on Travis' birthday and enjoyed an amazing, sunny day with each other.

Charlotte was either really hot, furious, hyper, excited, happy, sad, curious, or something similar cuz she was kicking and making the whole world know her presence.

Here's my favorite shot of the day.

New look to our blog!

Welcome to our new look here at the Still Music blog. It's reader-customizable, which is pretty sweet. Just move your cursor over the top left corner tab where it should say "Classic," and click on multiple looks. I like to keep it on "Classic," because not all of my pictures show up in the other viewing options.

I've been working the last couple days on major improvements to the blog. Adding lots of tags, checking grammer and spelling, trying to get a cohesive look going on, and fixing pictures and links. Picasa deleted all of my previous pictures so it's been pretty tedious fixing everything. I've just deleted like 35 of my oldest posts because it's just so much work to try to get all the images back.

I have big plans for my blog to try to reach more people. I want people to follow us here at Still Music, so add our URL to your reader.

www.jeremyhohengarten.blogspot.com

Soon I hope to add a "Email List" link. PLEASE share with your friends, especially the ones getting married (even if they have a photographer!). DEFINITELY "Like" posts that you enjoyed so I know what people like to see ("Like" and "+1" buttons are at the bottom of each post.

There's lots to look forward to in the future here at our blog. We'll be exploring options like interviews with other photographers, tips and tricks, advice, personal stories, flash back or rewind posts, author's picks and favorites, vendor recommendations, resources, maybe some videos, and we'll hopefully be exploring my own experiences with my own wedding and our wonderful photographers.

2012 is going to be a fun year for us.

We're going to be shooting a lot more hopefully.

We'll be shooting in:

warm and fashionable Southern California, 

on top of a ski resort, 

in ever-beautiful and sexy Napa Valley, 

in Seattle, Washinton (hopefully on a YACHT!), 

on a beautiful ranch in the foothills of the Sierras, 

and even at Union Hill where my wife and I were married.

Don't worry, I'll be bugging you to stay in touch because I want you to enjoy coming to visit us here. The following screen shots are your different viewing options for the blog. It'd be awesome to hear from you about whether or not you like it. I'm always looking to improve and perfect. And this is far from perfect.

Stay tuned cuz this whole look will probably change real quick.

Elise and Adam: October 15, 2011

Beautiful bride, beautiful venues, beautiful memories!

Such an easy group of amazing people we got to shoot.

The day was so special for Elise and Adam and all of their friends and family.

We were very lucky to share their day with everyone there.

I was just writing Elise and Adam yesterday telling them how much fun I remembered having while I went thru their wonderful pictures; I told them how much I miss that day!

In wonderful Sonoma County, the weather was perfect and the smiles were big.

Enjoy.

Here's the link for the entire slideshow!

Thanks to everyone visiting, and a special thanks to Elise and Adam for such an amazing time!

June 10, 2010: Vellenger Family

Introducing some of the most random, fun, funny and good natured people in the world.

The Vellengers are a wonderful species, and are entertaining to no end.

Very photogenic, the allow the artist to deliver the most pleasant of pictures.

Which says more about these fine folks than it does of my photography skills.

Amen, Vellenger...

April 10, 2010: Sarah and Lindsay

This was the first same sex wedding I have shot or attended, and it was such a beautiful day.
Two gorgeous brides with two wonderful families celebrated a long awaited union at Villa Ragusa in Campbell.
They both looked wonderful in their gowns and the whole day had a warm atmosphere and fun people.
I was so happy for them both.

September 12, 2009: Jami & Grant

Rewind a day: somewhere in the warm, stormy, rain spattered valley of California, deep in the countryside, a couple prepares for their marriage. 

The ranch is ready, the sky clears and the crowd gathers.

 Jami and Grant enjoy their wonderful day with their friends and family.
