“It’s official- I’m having you do my wedding! Don’t know when that is - not engaged yet, but I’m calling you guys!!! Your pics are wonderful!” - Anna

I love getting emails like the one above! My friend Matt who lives up the street in NW Portland says he’ll hire us to shoot his wedding, we just have to find him a bride. So we’ve decided to start an online dating website called www.gabrielboonedatingservicesandphotography.com . Just kidding. But really, we love getting emails like Anna’s.

Now that Thanksgiving is over… its that time of year again… Elf Yourself time. Click on the link and enjoy (be patient - it can take a little while to load). Don’t worry, we don’t elf too many of our clients after photographing them! Happy Holidays!!

And since every good entry needs a photo, here are some berries from our trip to B.C.

Got to spend some time at “In the Kitchen” last week. We also had the priviledge of spending second Thanksgiving with them today. Two down and one more to go! Yes that’s right. Thanksgiving Day 3 is tomorrow with my parents! It’s almost like a stovetop stuffing commercial.

I’m stoked! Jacqi and I are taking advantage of the holiday weekend and are heading up to British Columbia for a couple of days. Since we met and spent most of our time dating up there, we thought we’d take a quick jot up there and visit some of our favorite spots. Maybe I’ll take a few photos and post them here. Just maybe…

In the meantime I’ll share this sunrise photo taken on a hike with my Father in-law in the Columbia River Gorge. We summited Mount Defiance in late September. At around 5000 feet, Mt. Defiance is the highest peak in the Gorge I guess. Its quite a trek starting at sea level. Even though this view was only around 600 feet high, I believe it was the best view we had all day.
