Her experience as a camerawoman is not only limited to her independent documentaries, but is grounded in her work for National Geographic, Discovery Channel, Fox and NBC. Vanessa’s camerawork and editing skills have garnered national and international awards, including ‘best of festival,’ ‘best documentary’ and ‘outstanding artistic achievement.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In part to support her environmental work, Vanessa makes select wedding videos. Her style is called Cinéma vérité, French for "cinema truth." Best described as "fly on the wall filmmaking," the filmmaker attempts to make his/her presence as unobtrusive as possible. Small cameras and natural lighting are preferred. The story is told in how the images are captured, which often makes editing unnecessary (greatly reducing cost). The footage in its natural and uncut form reflects the true essence of the event without editor bias; all the glorious intensity of laughter, tears, bonds, hope, romance, excitement, promise, and of course… love.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=Vanessa.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/Vanessa.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Helping brides stay calm and centered, Vanessa also teaches yoga in her home studio and at Bend’s healing center, The Bodhi Tree.

Mt.Jefferson rises off in the distance and peeks out over lush pastures surrounded by pristine white fences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=CascadePhotography2.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/CascadePhotography2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition to this beautiful location we’ve included the use of a private cottage for the brides and bridesmaids to get ready in. Along with two or three tents set up and decorated with white lights, ready in case rain should threaten your outdoor event. We also include a white wooden archway for your ceremony and three metal gazebos for the gift table, cake table and bar area. A dance floor, decorated with white lights and Chinese lanterns, is set amongst the trees offering an intimate setting for hours of dancing. For those wanting to relax with their guests, a bonfire awaits for everyone to gather around later in the evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=RockSteps.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/RockSteps.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=gardenbench.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/gardenbench.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=Studio404.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/Studio404.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you'd like more information on this fantastic venue in Central Oregon, please visit their website - &lt;A HREF="http://www.flyingdiamondgardens.com" target="_blank"&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The Gardens at Flying Diamond Ranch&lt;/A&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you need any other help when you're planning on getting married in Central Oregon, you can go to - &lt;A HREF="http://www.centraloregonweddings.com" target="_blank"&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Central Oregon Weddings&lt;/A&gt;</description><link>http://www.centraloregonweddings.com/blog/2008/02/featured-vendor-gardens-at-flying.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Central Oregon Weddings)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1426132971622518686.post-8176824158268098662</guid><pubDate>Mon, 11 Feb 2008 19:16:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-11T11:40:51.451-08:00</atom:updated><title>Featured Vendor - Country Catering</title><description>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_50vV5jjN17w/R7CktYhvJ2I/AAAAAAAAACM/DHf-SZok27g/s1600-h/Country+Catering+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165809872178980706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_50vV5jjN17w/R7CktYhvJ2I/AAAAAAAAACM/DHf-SZok27g/s400/Country+Catering+4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_50vV5jjN17w/R7Cfv4hvJ1I/AAAAAAAAACE/ixQJxGhuDgk/s1600-h/Country+Catering+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;With over 30 years of experience, Country Catering has catered countless parties and receptions.

Our one goal every time we pick up the camera is to create something that in some way will have a lasting impact on your life. We love people, we love the friendships we gain with our brides and grooms, and we love the raw expression that children have. Capturing the inner beauty of people is what makes our life and art very rewarding. Art is not what you see, but what you feel deep inside. That emotion helps lead our instincts and passions in order to express and illuminate the essence of love and emotion in an image. We hope that every image brings happiness and warmth to your soul, making your eyes water and your heart swell with joy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=untitled2.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/untitled2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=untitled3.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/untitled3.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=untitled4.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/untitled4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/?action=view&amp;amp;current=untitled5.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj199/centraloregonweddings/untitled5.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you're looking for a wedding photographer in Central Oregon, be sure to check out Stott Shots Photography. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kyle and Kacie Stott are the artists behind these amazing images.
