Wow! Elizabeth and Tim’s gorgeous wedding had all the feels (crazy laughter but mostly sweet tears) at Bingham Estate exactly a year ago! After first meeting Elizabeth and Tim during their very epic Crater Lake engagement session– I knew their wedding would be a love fest! Their wedding was like stepping onto the pages of a folktale…. only this Snow White leaned in and traded in her little cottage for a rustic estate and a gorgeous gown from Anna’s Bridal. With red brick archways overgrown in vines and wrought iron balconies, the fantastical Bingham Estate was the perfect setting for Tim and Elizabeth to declare their love among their best friends and family. Florals by Blum perfectly complimented the gorgeous grounds and old-time classic garden feel. Thanks to Nora and the Bridal Bliss team the ceremony was perfectly planned and there wasn’t a dry eye in the audience when Tim first set eyes on Elizabeth. After the ceremony Elizabeth and Tim and guests mingled on the lawn and had music by Event Team Entertainment.Then introduced into the first dance to “Unforgettable” by Nat King Cole and guests enjoyed a delicious three course meal courtesy of White Pepper with a stunning cake and dessert from JaCiva’s. The remainder of the night was a whirl of dancing beneath the stars in celebration of Elizabeth and Tim’s sweet love. Many magical moments to come, Elizabeth and Tim!

Love this pic of the new bride and groom and their cute pup Zoe! The talented Travis, with Shields Films was documenting with HD video and plenty of 8mm.
Timberline Lodge is a breathtaking location and the perfect spot for a wedding!
The veil was dancing in the mountain breeze, which made for some cute pics of J&S.
Love the color palette and the turquoise jewelry.
The Bad Mitten Orchestre played and kept the dancing and hollerin’ going on all night! This band seriously rocks.
There were even fire dancers from Flamebuoyant Productions who came to perform an artistic and magical fire show with acrobatics with Mt. Hood in the background. (Did I mention that this wedding was off the charts awesome!?)
The coolest photobooth- The Original Photobooth kept the laughs up all night and I even snuck a few pics of the couple behind the curtain. Love these tender moments.
Jaimee and Steve… What can I say!? Their celebration of love under the stars, beneath Mt. Hood was nothing less of incredible. Jaimee and Steve are a very compassionate and artistic couple with lots of love. Erica and I were thrilled to document their amazing wedding in July with perfect weather, gorgeous flowers, a great band, fun friends, all night dancing, fire acrobats, a vintage-style photo booth and endless amounts of love. SO happy to have documented such an inspiring event! Hope you love the sneak peek J&S! xoxo
