When you meet a couple that have been together for over a decade, have travelled the world, laughed and danced together, you know it’s going to be a truly incredible wedding adventure. Liz & Richard and I met up at the cherry blossoms at the Tom McCall Waterfront Park and had a blast in the blooms. Although it was scheduled to rain, we lucked out and had a great time. We then headed to the Japanese Gardens and made magic. Richard and Liz have a deep love of Japan and have travelled there. It was fun learning about the different garden features, ikebana and sensory experiences. It was a truly an amazing few hours spent with these two and I’m beyond excited for their wedding in wine country this weekend!

Kami & Brett
Eliot Center Wedding
Kami and Brett are an incredibly compassionate and sweet couple with great style!
The Eliot Chapel at the First Unitarian Church in downtown Portland is stunning.
Love this pic that the uber talented Mark Adams, of LaCour fame captured of Brett adjusting his tie.
Kami was a gorgeous bride in her Cocoon Silk dress!
Jordan of Blum Design In Flowers created the stunning bouquets!
Kami and Brett and I all took the Max to the reception. Super fun pics!
Culinary Artistry catered the event and the food was outstanding! The lovely and yummy cake and cupcakes were created by Le Cookie Monkey
The World Forestry Center is a very cool spot for a wedding! Located in Washington Park, the landscape and the architecture are incredible.
This moment between Kami and her mom makes me smile.
Kami and Brett met beneath the Hawthorne Bridge while they were parking their cars, and it was love at first sight. Their wedding had a lot of incredible and fun moments and I’m so happy that I was able to document it! I love the juxtaposition between the traditional and classic, mixed with the modern and urban environments. K&B, I wish you both a lifetime of happiness and love!
A very special thanks to my friend Mark Adams for second shooting with me. You rule.
