Sci_Fi_Wedding_12.jpg Pretty much my favorite ring shot ever. T&D had a “heaven and earth” theme and was inspired by that for their colors and details.

Sci_Fi_Wedding_8.jpg In lieu of the traditional boutineers the guys (and one groomswoman:) wore Star Trek communicators and the ladies held vintage umbrellas rather than bouquets. Totally rad.

Sci_Fi_Wedding_15.jpg Tora made all the flags for guests to wave using iron-on transfers. These made me smile.

Sci_Fi_Wedding_13.jpg Complete with a rocking cake incorporating the theme, an Italian soda bar, custom made invites and programs and collections of vintage vases gathered on each table, the reception was hella cool all around!

Tora and David are rad. They had their morning wedding in Oregon City at The Abernathy Center in the Veiled Garden with a lunch reception in the ball room. T&D had a lot of DIY, little bit of indie, a dash of Sci-Fi, and pinch of comic book inspiration to create a stylish and smart wedding with a ton of flavor. Special thanks to Maalaea of I and M Photography for second shooting with me! Tora is the creative force behind Tora Illustration, her amazing illustration company. Her style is fresh and fun and you should check out her site and blog! http://www.toraillustration.com/ I’m super honored and blushing that I was cool enough to be a part of the badassery of Tora and David’s wedding. Thanks so much guys for choosing me to document your awesome day. Hope you love the sneak peek!

    You took a terrific pic. of my cake! I had been working at the Abernety Center when I created this cake. I’d very much like to post this picture on my site with your watermark/credits appearing on it of course. Would you be willing to email me the picture?
