Classic B&W reception photos
I love the timelessness of this pair of images. They depict the romance of a new couple’s first swirl on the dance floor together. It could be 2010, or 1980: black and white seems to strip away all the characteristics that date an image. What remains? Only what is classic, emotional and beautiful.

Finding unique moments.
Weddings are FULL of great moments. Some beautiful, some emotional…and some quite unique. 
I love watching brides and grooms interact, but keeping an eye on guests and family is always just as great.

Bridal Style
A double strand of pearls. A flower behind her ear. A beautiful black wrap. A delicate bouquet of baby’s breath. These are just a few of the ways Erin defined her look on her wedding day.

Details
I love the details at wedding’s. My philosophy – if you paid money for it, I’m taking a picture of it! Wedding photography is so important. Pictures are the only thing you have to remember the tiny details you spent so much time planning, making, getting ready. The details tell a huge part of the story of the day (like the makeshift red “panic” button the groom put on the bouquet for his bride) and they are often my favorite pages in the album.

Air Guitar is so 2008!
Sarah and Matt were married at her family home outside Corvallis and celebrated well into the wee hours. When the sun went down, the glow sticks came out. Matt literally didn’t miss a beat!
It’s the moments like this that make the memories of your wedding. We’d love to capture yours!

Funny toast
Toast time is always great time for photos. It’s great to hear the stories about the couples from the people closest to them. Most of the time the best shots are not of the toaster but the reaction to what they are saying. Showing the love and laughter of the wedding day is always important to me.

A Little Help From My Friends
We all need a little help from our friends, especially when it comes to keeping our teeth clean for wedding photographs. (You can see another hilarious photo of a groom flossing his bride’s teeth on our blog.)
You can read and see more about Megan’s wedding carnavale on our wedding photography blog, and see more of our work on our wedding photography website.
At Fritz Photography, we love to tell love stories. Especially funny ones.
A Lovely Veil
A veil done right can be the perfect touch completing a bride’s look. Ensieh’s is one my favorites and I just love the drama it creates in this image.

Dad’s & Daughters
It must be because I have two girls myself but when a father gives a great touching heartfelt toast at the wedding of his daughter I get choked up. This toast was wonderful and when dad broke down and his daughter reached out for him, it was a very special moment that I was glad I got to share.
You can see more touching moments at my website www.karlmaasdam.com and if you need a photographer find out who is available for you wedding here.
The First Dance
The music starts, she places her hand in his and together they take the spotlight for their first dance together as husband and wife.
All the chaos of the wedding day becomes still and everyone’s attention turns to the newly married couple on the dance floor. The intimacy of the bride and groom, the mother and father holding each other with tears in their eyes, the little girls with big eyes dreaming of their wedding day… all comes together with the first dance. One of my favorite moments.

Who knew?
Alan is hard pressed to understand just how heavy that new ring is… I don’t think any of us is ready for how much we are aware of the new weight!
I remember my own very clearly… it seemed to clang against things for weeks but I was also glad to have it so… a sweet reminder of a new journey.
Good photography is real and should bring back all sorts of sweet memories.
Come see more of my work… I’d be happy to talk to you about what we could do.

Let’s Toast
I always enjoy capturing the toasts that are made to the bride and groom. When properly captured, the subtle gestures and fleeting expressions can really bring the photograph to life. Pair this with the bride and groom responding to the toast and you have a compelling set of images that tell a complete story.

Fill Light by Snow
Here’s another from a recent engagement shoot on Mt. Hood. The snow created an incredible light to shoot in…especially for these blue eyes.
Bride by Barn Light
I love light, all kinds of light. Sun light, barn light, car light, or candle light. It’s all wonderful if used correctly!
