Chelsea and Ryan's Earth Toned Fall Wedding at Valley View Farm | Oregon Wedding Photographer

Wedding

Nov 19

Chelsea and Ryan smiled and laughed every single dang minute during their earth toned fall wedding Valley View Farm. Seriously. I can still hear them laughing just looking these photos!! The level of energy and hype they brought to their wedding day is something Red Bull will want to study and bottle up. I just wish I could carry them around in my pocket and keep this kind of joy around me forever y’all.

We all met in person earlier this year (in the cold, cold winter to be exact) for their Pennsylvania engagement session, so I knew how much fun these two liked to have. But add all of their family and friends, the most amazing fall weather, the perfect fall foliage, and one of the most attentive and caring venues in the industry, and THEN the real celebration begins.

I was obsessed with the color palette from the moment Chelsea told me they chose neutral tones. Especially in the fall with so many other rich earth tones around, a neutral wedding party of beige and navy highlights everyone faces, works with the environment, and doesn’t overshadow any of the details. To top it off, she used my FAVORITE flower of all time— toffee roses. These rust colored flowers remind me of terracotta pots, and are the dreamiest matte tone and smooth texture to photograph.

The ceremony was officiated by a dear family friend, and they each read their own vows, making promises big and small that had everyone in tears and stitches at some point. Every single member of their wedding party so was excited and helpful during the day— I always need a little assistance wrangling friends and family for group pictures, and I was never empty handed this day.

Chelsea and Ryan, I am SO happy to see you surrounded by such a devoted, energetic, and caring community who loves you so much. Your wedding day was a freaking blast, and I hope you continue to laugh this hard all of the days of your lives together. I love you two so much!!!
