Alisha & Ryan [wedding]

Fun, fun and FUN best describes Alisha and Ryan's wedding in Hood River this past weekend! The weather was perfect and the love was flowing! Alisha and Ryan shared their special day with an intimate group of friends from college. I felt 'part of the family' considering they had a dedicated place setting at their table just for me too! Thanks again guys :)

Amanda and Jacob Engagement Session

Met up with Amanda and Jacob along the Portland waterfront this past Saturday evening for their engagement session. As it turned out, fortune really did smile upon us (once we found parking) as we got the best mix of all kinds of lighting, from wonderful diffuse clouds overhead to gorgeous "golden hour" sunlight. We wrapped the shoot on the East side of the river along the esplanade. These two have great chemistry together and many of the end images look downright cinematic. Looking forward to shooting their wedding this coming holiday season!

Margie and Evan

Margie and Evan were married on May 15th at The Old Church in SW, downtown. Their reception in Lake Oswego was absolutely beautiful and so much fun. They had some of the most gorgeous decorations I've seen at a reception. Bright colored lanterns, candles everywhere and gorgeous flowers to match. Their families were so much fun! Thanks for such a fabulous wedding guys! So glad to have been a part of it!

Becky & Ryan

I had a wonderful day Sunday at Edgefield McMenamins celebrating the marriage of this warm and loving couple! The weather was not looking so favorable for an outdoor ceremony but by the time 4:30pm came around, we were fortunate to see the sun peaking through the clouds! Becky and Ryan had a small intimate ceremony followed by a reception with all their closest friends and family. Thanks again guys for such a memorable day!

Sarah and Eddie

I had so much fun shooting with Sarah and Eddie for their engagement session! It ranged from sun to hail to thunder and lightning to rain back to sun! Despite the rain we had a blast at the marina on the west side and they handled the weather so beautifully. Their dog joined us for the shoot too!
