From unloading a massive trailer (shoutout to @mamagipe & mary, for the hookup 🙌) to setting up one of the biggest sound + lighting rigs I’ve ever built—this wedding was special.

Cami & Joe’s big day, 9.20.25 💍✨ The ceremony was beautiful… but the reception? Pure chaos in the BEST way. 3 hours of straight dancing, high-energy party vibes, and honestly one of my best performances yet. 💃🕺

Congrats to my sister-in-law & new brother-in-law—what a way to kick off forever together. ❤️

A Thursday wedding! Always great to be back at @abernethycenter celebrating another couple getting married!! @bmk.charles and @_kiara_jane were such a lovely couple to work with when planning this day!
The both looked stunning! And it was a tear filled ceremony, watching two people so in love exchange vows and rings and make it official.
And of course the party was epic! Something for everyone! From 50’s all the way up to today’s music! The couple had great taste!

Wonderful day yesterday spent on the family farm, celebrating the marriage of David and Kyndra @kyndrakerslake

Beautiful ceremony under the oaks, a wonderful cocktail hour at the train station! Emotional toasts given by family and friends and an epic 2.5 hours of dancing! Non stop packed dance floor!

Thank you for having me and trusting me to rock your party! May you have many happy years together!

If you don’t follow me on tik tok, just know, I like to practice music over there and chat when I get bored at night. Shout out to @fender for this beautiful guitar… star caster is by far my favorite fender I own.

One week a year, I get to be with some of my favorite people - 24 hours a day, doing fun stuff. And important stuff. And silly stuff, and most of all impacting the lives of kids. This year, I was able to bring the whole trailer full of gear and help provide an awesome music experience for camp. Grateful to be with the other talented musicians @tcano135 @graceann_bohn @asa0_635 @joshhawkpdx …. It’s always great to be in a room with them. Creative ideas flowing, few speed bumps, but that’s music. And I love all of them so much. Big thanks to @mckahanmcguire @sarahbauer_15 and @sharpsquatch for leading the week. And Winema staff for all your hard work year round @winema_christian_camp taken in Wi-Ne-Ma Christian Camp by @djraintree

Golden hour at Bridal Veil Lake, Oregon. ✨ As the sun dipped behind the mountains, every reflection, every breeze, and every glance felt like pure magic. Some moments don’t need direction—they simply deserve to be remembered forever. 🤍
