Holly and Sam | U of P and Left Bank Annex Wedding

01.24.12

It truly is a wonderful life, and Holly and Sam's wedding made it even more wonderful! Their wedding was a breathtaking day of magic, love, and Mike Piper! I highly recommend Mike, with An Affair to Remember for your wedding coordination and florals. Everything ran smoothly, looked incredible and truly made for an unforgettable evening of whimsy in a wintery wonderland filled with vintage details and luscious florals. I love Holly and Sam and their families and I was truly honored to document their first steps together as husband and wife. Holly looked gorgeous in her Lazaro gown from AniA Collection, and shoes from Vera Wang. Courtney Rogers did all the beautiful makeup and Heather from Dezi salon created the stunning updos. We started at The Nines, Portland's premier boutique hotel, for the getting ready and first glance. The ceremony took place at the University of Portland chapel and the reception was held at the Portland Left Bank Annex, a super unique event space. The theme of the evening was inspired by It's a Wonderful Life, the famous Frank Capra film from 1946. I loved that it was playing silently in the background throughout the evening! The talented Judy with Dream Cakes made the incredible cake and Eric Wright with All Wright Music emceed the evening and kept the dance floor packed! Vibrant Table made sure the food was perfect and delicious and Hybrid Moon filmed the evening's celebrations. The candlelit ceremony and reception warmed the guests, while Holly and Sam's amazing energy and true love filled their hearts.
Wow...Thank you and Congrats!

Holly and Sam's Rehearsal Dinner | Firehouse Restaurant

01.23.12

Holly and Sam are the perfect definition of true love. Their rehearsal dinner at the N. Portland Firehouse Restaurant was nothing short of perfect. The ambiance with the exposed brick, amazing flowers and soft candlelight provided the hip yet cozy backdrop to a fun night. I felt honored to document the toasts about childhood stories, true laughter and a great family union. Firehouse was a delight with great service and delicious food. An unforgettable night with two amazing people and their wonderful families! Stay tuned for their remarkable wedding soon!

Kelly and Joel | Oregon Engagement Photography

12.22.11

Kelly and Joel and I met up in early Autumn and we started the shoot at the SW Waterfront and continued onto the beautiful Rhododendron Gardens. Kelly and Joel have been dating for a long while and have continued through college and now, onto grad school. Joel is currently studying business and Kelly just finished medical school and is applying for residency. This couple is kind, gorgeous and intelligent and I'm honored to be working with them both for their May wedding at the Governor!

Stephanie and Nathan | Timberline Lodge Wedding Photographs

12.07.11

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Stephanie and Nathan's wedding on October 1st at the historic and beautiful Timberline Lodge. Their love is so flirty-fun and poetic and I had a blast photographing this amazing couple. Stephanie looked stunning in her dress which was a beautiful Wtoo by Watters dress. Nathan and all the guys looked awesome wearing classic and timeless tuxes which I think works well for an autumn ceremony and adds a sophisticated elegance. I loved the NW flair they added with the sapling favors, the earthy colors and the super fun dancing. Michelle with Amore Fiori created all the stunning flowers. Lynn with Media Jockeys kept the flow of the party and the dancing going all night! Thanks so much Stephanie and Nathan for choosing me to photograph your stellar wedding!

I have known Steph since she was 7 or 8 years old and these pictures with Nathan capture the spirit of Steph. She is a woman now but I can still see that happy, innocent, careful child from long ago. Your pictures are beautiful!!
