Miranda + Nate

We were so excited for Miranda and Nate's wedding in Salem June 19th. The weather was on our side, and everyone was ready to celebrate this special occasion! Thanks for sharing this day with us guys :) Look for more to come soon...

Katie and Andy!

Katie and Andy were married this weekend in McMinneville. The wedding was beautiful. They were both so easy going, and they gave me lots of time for pictures... which was awesome, because we ended up getting so many different backdrops for their photos! Right now they are honeymooning in Maui! Have a fabulous trip guys!! Thanks for an awesome night!

Mmmm, grilled cheese and Voodoo Doughnuts.

Kenny loves Wendy. Wendy loves grilled cheese. Kenny and Wendy are getting married, so why not stop at the Grilled Cheese Grill to take some photos? Why not indeed. Kenny and Wendy were a blast to photograph. Having already photographed their engagement session we all definitely knew what was needed for great photographs. As the wedding day neared, weather (of course) was an issue to be prepared for. They were getting married at the Acadian Ballroom but wanted to take advantage of the surrounding neighborhoods. It was sprinkling throughout the morning and the skies were pretty gloomy. Being the weather guru that I am, I predicted that there should be a window of an hour and a half to take photos outside. I knew this by ancient techniques taught to me by Steve Jobs and the 10 different weather apps I have on the iPhone.When all the inside photos were taken and it was time to go outside, we all popped our heads out and breathed a sigh of relief. Blue skies with puffy clouds, just what the doctor ordered. We all hurriedly made a break for the car. Kenny, Wendy, her twin sister (good thing one of them had a big white dress on or I would have been in trouble) and I jumped in and headed for Peninsula Park. From there we went to the Grilled Cheese Grill and a beautiful church on Alberta. Even though they were closed, the good people at the grill let us use their bus without any hesitation.This is one of the many reasons I love living in Portland! After our outdoor romp we made our way back to the ballroom only to have it start raining again just as we stepped into the doors.Being the true Portlanders that they were, instead of having a cake they choose to have Voodoo Doughnuts as their dessert choice. The reception music soundtrack was so nostalgic, bringing me back to my awkward and awesome teenage years. It’s always great to have great clients, great music and great photographs.

Trina & Steven

We had so much fun with this beautiful couple! Trina and Steven have been in love for over two years and decided to wed Friday 23rd April in the South East. After the reception, we ended up roaming around downtown for some night shots and captured these beautiful images! Thanks for an amazing day guys!

Vista Hills with Melissa and Josh!

Friday night Melissa and Josh got hitched at Vista Hills Winery. Their great taste came through in everything from the all natural centerpieces made of driftwood and rock to the rings the groom designed himself! Melissa and Josh have so much love, respect and admiration for each other! It was great getting to know them and being a part of their beautiful day. Thanks for an amazing night guys!
