Wedding

McKenzie and Rahul
A Gerding Theatre Armory Wedding

McKenzie and Rahul threw an absolutely incredible wedding for their family and friends! I loved working with this kind and wonderful couple for their 2017 summer wedding at the Armory Gerding Theatre. The style, the food, the music, the dancing, oh so much fun! Will with Don’t Mess with the Bride did the coordination and Marianne with Petal Passion made the gorgeous bouquets. The food from Swagat was all delicious and incorporated Rahul’s Indian Heritage. Loved Rahul’s classic blue tux with the black lapels and McKenzie’s hair and makeup from Marissa Freeman was spot on perfect. The vows were extremely touching and I personally loved that they literally danced down the aisle together! Congrats McKenzie and Rahul and I’m so happy that you found each other!

Elopements

Hannah and Jacob
An Indigo and Bluehour Portland Wedding

Hanna and Jacob emanate goodness. They laugh a lot together, ask a lot of questions and truly make this world a better place. For real, he is a brain surgeon and she is a researcher for childhood developmental disorders. Needless to say after getting to know them better during their oh so fun urban engagement shoot I was beyond honored to photograph their classic and elegant wedding day. With a ceremony and reception at the award-winning Blue Hour restaurant the vibe was timeless class with a modern touch and I loved every detail! Spot-on coordination from Molli and her team at Soiree Wedding Planning, stunning blooms and beautiful Chuppah from Zest Flowers and a classic cake from Dream Cakes. This wedding was so pretty to photograph and filled with so much joy! Thank you so much for choosing me to photograph your amazing wedding Hanna and Jacob!

Wedding

Rachel & Anthony
Ecotrust Wedding

Rachel and Anthony are a beautiful couple with big hearts.

Something Blue!

A sweet moment between Rachel and her mom.

A Cinderella moment in the limo. Love her shoes!

Portland in the house! This is one of my favorite pics, and it will mean a lot to the couple very soon, as R&A are moving to NYC soon!

The Portland rain didn’t stop Rachel and Anthony from having a blast and gallivanting around with Erica and I while we took fun photos!

The amazing Jordan with Blum Designs in Flowers created the stunning bouquets and boutonnieres using fresh hydrangeas.

haaaaay.. The guys looking fly.

This makes me cry happy tears. SO in love!

The roof top terrace at EcoTrust is a stunning place to say your I Do’s.

The venue is so very hip and urban with an elegant, yet eclectic feel.

Saint Cupcake created the lovely tower of treats, and the favors were environmentally friendly grocery bags for the guests.

It was a super fun party with awesome music, dancing and friends!

Rachel and Anthony are an intelligent and incredible couple who recently tied the knot on top of EcoTrusts roof in the heart of the Pearl District. The wedding party was a ton of fun and R&A could not have been happier! Rachel and Anthony met here in Portland while Anthony was in town for business, and now business is moving them to NYC for an awesome job opportunity. R&A – I wish you the best of life, happiness always and don’t forget to write! Portland will miss you! xoxo Hope you love the sneak peek!
