Katie: Wow, beautiful photos!! (08.25.09, 04:27pm)

Bryan Aulick: I'm keen on your close crop style. Beautiful. (08.24.09, 02:41pm)

Amberleigh: I was wondering if you have the style number for the Alvina Valenta dress... I'm in LOVE with it. So so beautiful. (03.16.09, 04:32am)

Jeff Bear: I really enjoy your use of depth of field to throw the background out of focus, I need to do that more, as well as shoot from more odd angles. Personally, I do not like the filter effects of aging the photographs, but that is my opinion. (09.15.08, 10:20am)

myra :: twigs & honey: Oooh! Ali looks so gorgeous!! Congrats lovely lady and now hubby! I have been meaning to stop by your cafe!! I hope you and your beautiful ladies liked your hair pieces. Everything is perfect!! xo-Myra (09.08.08, 11:38am)

ali: kaitlyn, Alvina Valenta is the designer of my gown (09.06.08, 05:33pm)

Mary: Is anyone interested in this dress? I bought it just last month but changed my mind. It's never been worn or altered, and is brand-new with tags. Feel free to contact me at mrsh2be@gmail.com for details. Thanks! :) (09.06.08, 12:21pm)

The Pissed Off Brid: This wedding is awesome. So many great details were captured. Amazing job and it looks like the wedding was a blast. I LOVE THE DRESS!!! (09.04.08, 05:38pm)

Maggie: I am swooning over every detail of this wedding! Your photography is outstanding, and that dress is simply stunning on Ali... do you happen do know who makes it?! (09.04.08, 01:21pm)

David: Holy cow. Seriously. There's something . . . playful. Awesome. Something . . . incredible about these shots I can't put my finger on. If I had just one of these from a weekend wedding shoot I'd be gleeful. Why does someone always have to be *so* much better at this than I!! (08.28.08, 04:28pm)

leliakate: what a beautiful affair! (08.26.08, 01:33pm)

laura: gorgeous photos - truly inspired. does anyone know who made the wedding gown - it is exquisite! (08.25.08, 07:18pm)

delane and gavin: I'm a little overwhelmed. Laughing. Crying. Oohing. Aahing. That's manageable. The wondering if maybe after seeing these images no other photographers for any event (including our own wedding) will measure up was not something I was prepared for. The feeling that my everyday eyes and meager recollection might miss the extraordinary details worries me. But instead of hiring Our Labor of Love to capture the details of me at work, on the way to the store, calling my mom, I instead will look at this wedding album for inspiration to tilt my head, or crouch down, or close an eye to see what is so beautiful, exotic and intoxicating about color, light, stripes and the smiles that surround us. And I will see, also, if we can have them at our wedding. (08.23.08, 01:01am)

Amy Mc: Beautiful pictures you guys. Well it must be easy with a couple as ridiculously good looking as Ali and Evan. And the wedding party! pugs, CAKE (oh my god, raspberry deliciousness)... Great colors. You guys are awesome. (08.22.08, 09:46pm)

Phyllis Eckstein: wonderful.. creative... playful....such fun, just like the wedding. (08.22.08, 07:58pm)

Metolius Mark: Saw the whole shabang...loved your work. Loved being there even more. But I love everything about these two...would if I was blind in both eyes. Glad I'm not, because there was a lot to see; you captured it well oh Photographers extraordinaire. (08.22.08, 07:24pm)

Joe Moreland: As a rather serious amateur photographer myself, I've seen a lot of good photographs and taken a few myself. These images are technically outstanding and artistically inspired. Kudos!!! (08.22.08, 04:39pm)

julie durkheimer: Ali and Evan's photos are a creative journey that well represent the experience of their unique and glorious wedding. Thank you for capturing the spirit of them and their lives! (08.22.08, 03:57pm)

Mike & Hadra: What a fun time. Thanks for including us. These pictures capture the personality of the event but don't reallly do justice to Ali's outward beauty, but then, what camera could!!!!!!!!!!! (08.22.08, 08:18am)

Sonny Jepson: Whitney & Jesse: During the planning process, Ali & Evan shared their reasons for selecting you to be their photographers. Not only did meeting you at the event confirm they made the best choice, your pictures are, let's say, the frosting on the cake. Thank you for being part of this wonderful event and ,when you return to Oregon, the first egg sandwich is on me!!! (08.22.08, 12:25am)

Barbara Durkheimer: Fabulous photos- great subject matter, creative and unique... (08.21.08, 11:06pm)
