We are gathered here in the presence of this company to join Cory and Jade in marriage. Nothing worthwhile in life is sudden. We wait for birth. We wait for life to reveal its meaning, year by year, experience by experience. Waiting is the law of life, the measure of love. When two individuals meet, so do two private worlds. None of our private worlds is big enough for us to live a wholesome life in. We need the wide world of joy and wonder, of purpose and venture, of toil and tears. What are we, any of us, but strangers and sojourners forlornly wandering through the night until we draw together and find the meaning of our lives in one another, dissolving our fears in…

On Sunday, I got to be a bride. No, I didn’t get married, but I got to be a model for Rocked, a Portland Bridal Event hosted by Portland Bride & Groom and The Nines. I wore a gorgeous 1950′s silk embroidered taffeta wedding gown with cinched waist, cascading train and boat neckline from Xtabay Bridal Salon, the same salon where I found my dress. I felt incredibly regal. The event took place on the 6th floor of the hotel. It was unbelievably gorgeous with views of the Courthouse and Pioneer Courthouse Square. Special thanks to Cory for being photographer/dress carrier for the day! I wouldn’t have made it through the day without you! Here are a few more snapshots of the event… Twitter / Facebook / Pinterest / Illustration
For this week’s 52, I got all dolled up for date night with Cory: dinner and a Broadway show. I figured a red lip was required. And now, my incredibly busy week in pictures… Sunday (Feb. 19): For Christmas Cory got me tickets to go see Broadway’s Beauty and the Beast at the Keller Auditorium! Sunday was finally the day so we got all dolled up, went out to dinner and then to the show. For those of you who don’t know, I have a problem. I love musical theater. My freshman year of high school my dad took me to see the Phantom of the Opera and I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve seen Phantom of the Opera, Lion King, Avenue Q, Mary Poppins, 42nd…

You read right, I, Jade Melissa Sheldon, of sound mind and body, am participating in a 365 project (along with a 52 weeks project). I know a lot of people who have gone on the 365 journey and while some have expressed how much they loved it and others have grumbled about how much they hated it, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say they didn’t learn a thing or two about themselves and their photography through it. I know I’m a bit insane especially with how busy this year is going to be already, but I felt the need to follow through and do it. I want to be able to look back at this year in pictures and be proud of…

The Story in Pictures: The WHOLE Story {Written by Cory}: Two days after Christmas last year, I was let go from my job (along with 600 other employees that were a part of the company). A few weeks prior to that, a feeling started to arise in my soul that it was time for me to begin planning for my engagement to the woman who had stolen my heart years before; Jade. Being let go from that soul sucking endless pit of a job was the best thing to happen to me to kick start my journey. I was able to get on unemployment, start going to the gym again, get back into school and spend more quality time with Jade while looking for…
