Wedding

Sara and Will
Timberline Lodge Weddings

Sara and Will’s amazing wedding took place at the stunning Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood. This is one of my favorite places to photograph, I love the architecture, the alpenglow at dusk, the fire, a snow capped mountain top and wildflowers. Love this spot. Sara and Will’s great energy and style made it even better plus s’mores made by the guests!! Sara’s hair and makeup looked soft and beautiful, done by the lovely Kirstie, of Kirstie Wight Makeup. The gorgeous organic wild flower bouquets were created by Lisa with Bloomsberry Floral. Thanks Elijah for second shooting. Congrats to a great couple!

Wedding

Jennie and Bobby
Oregon Golf Club Wedding

July started with a bang! On July 2, Bobby and Jennie tied the knot at the lovely Oregon Golf Club in West Linn, Oregon. Everything from the sky to the suits to the flowers, the food, and the love, was oh-so perfect and beyond marvelous. Liam and I had a lot of fun documenting the day. Starting with a meaningful tea ceremony at Jennie’s Aunt’s lovely home, the family gave their blessings and we were off to the club. The ceremony was dreamy and had beautiful views and the reception rocked! The decor was luxe and romantic and the dancing didn’t stop! Thank you SO MUCH for inviting me to document your whimsical, and oh-so lovely day!

Tiff & George – Garden Vineyards Wedding

Garden Vineyards is take-your-breath-away venue with vistas and gardens in every nook and cranny. A picturesque dream.

Tiff and her dress were stunning and she found it at the incredible Divine Designs Bridal Shop in NW Portland.

A handsome scene!

Yeah sister love!

T&G are just as compassionate and kindhearted as they are gorgeous!

A touching and beautiful ceremony. The super cool and ridiculously talented Paul Rich shot along side me and captured this beautiful pic during the ceremony.

Love this pic!

Their awesome dog Vivi was the ring bearer!

The “OMG those are incredible” flowers were created by the gifted ladies at Quince.

The tables were named after locations that T&G had traveled to together. The invites, table cards, menus and name holders were crafted with love by the brilliant Julie with Studio Olivine.

The excellent food and staff provided by Art of Catering.

George is in a band and all of his talented band mates and friends performed during the ceremony and cocktail hour.

Yes, T&G are so cool they had Voodoo Doughnut in lieu of a wedding cake. Their personal doughnut was the maple bacon heart… mmm true love and bacon!

Karaoke From Hell provided the kick ass entertainment with a live band and karaoke from Tiff and George’s family and friends. George performed a few songs and has an awesome voice!

Tiff and George are a terrific couple and they had an incredible wedding. Although it rained here and there during their wedding, the sun came out and shined at the perfect moments creating breathtaking memories throughout the magical day. Tiff and George are true soul mates and it was wonderful to witness their family and friends celebrating their love. Thank you SO much T&G for inviting me to document your surreal day. Your wedding really proves that love can turn and gray sky blue. Big love

Kimberly & Peter
Portland Wedding Photographer

Kim and Peter had an incredible vintage-inspired wedding with their closest family and friends at their NE home.

K&P were inspired by vintage photos of their family and we tried to replicate the poses and coloring of these cherished photos that adorn their walls.

Kim looked incredible in her hand dyed dress, mary janes and feathers in her hair.

The ceremony was short and sweet and took place in their dining room with about 6 attendees. Very intimate and cozy.

The invites and cake topper all came from their illustrator friend who used the couple and Edward Gorey as inspiration.

The delicious food and bar was catered by the lovely folks at Holocene.

Duchess created and tailored the suit for Peter and they are awesome.

This wedding was so beyond average. It was laid back, artistic, intimate and tons of fun.

Kim and Peter created an incredible afternoon and evening of festivities surrounding their marriage on May 8th. With a small ceremony in their dining room, a cocktail and appetizer reception in their turn of the century home, this wedding was very one of a kind. Inspired by vintage images of their families ancestry and the illustrations of Edward Gorey, they created a unique atmosphere for their family and friends. I loved everything about this wedding and hope K&P love their sneak peek. Thank you so much for sharing your day and your story.

Wedding

Nicole & Beachum
West End Theater Wedding

My most favorite image of 2009 for all the right reasons.

Nicole’s amazing Prada shoes make my heart flutter.

Their lovely letter press invites and unique rings, alongside the stunning bride, whose makeup was in the good hands of Nicole Wagner… Ahhmazing!

Love this image~ Beachum looking dapper wearing Dolce&Gabbana and Nicole transcended “bride” in her silver Vera Wang with a backdrop of modern day graffiti in SE Portland.

Love that the tables were named after the Portland precincts, and their favors were customized jam jars, created by the couple from Beachum’s family recipe! The incredible Mandi Downs with Blush Bridal Consultation did an outstanding job making the day run smoothly.

The West End Theater fit their modern day vintage vibe perfectly.

Instead of the traditional cake cutting, the couple chose to break creme brule. (my personal favorite)

Considering this was our last wedding shoot of 2009, I can’t contain my excitement about how incredible and perfect this wedding was. From the super hot style, the gorgeous flowers (created by Nicole’s grandmother) to their first dance song by Neko Case, I couldn’t have planned a more perfect day for this artistic couple. Nicole and Beachum are filled with compassion, sincerity and kindness and I’m so so so honored to have been in the presence of their family and friends as we celebrated their palpable love. Thank you so much to Nicole and Beachum for sharing the perfect wedding to close out a wonderous year of weddings. Love you guys big.

Happy 60th Anniversary!

My grandparents are incredible and I’m so blessed to have them in my life! Shirley and Doug (aka Grams and Gramps) are super active and love tennis, bridge, their Christmas tree farm and their mystery club, which is this cool club they belong to that holds their meetings at a mystery location each month! I recently discovered these photos of them and wanted to share in the bliss.I love the wedding pic on the doorstep- taken 60 years ago! This photo is a testament to my passion and mission as a wedding photographer… To document timeless and endless love that future generations will smile about, if only for a moment.
