Real Wedding: Camilla & Paul 7-4-09

07.29.09

Camilla and Paul said their "I Do's" on the 4th of July and Travis and I had the pleasure of photographing their vintage-inspired elegant wedding! The day was beautiful and the wedding was really fun and filled with smiles and laughter. Camilla and Paul had an intimate wedding at the stunning, Bridal Veil Lakes. but first got ready and did a few fun pics at, the always fun, Edgefields, with the talented make-up artist, Jennifer Walker completing Camilla's vintage look with soft and romantic shades.

Considering the history surrounding the 4th, the couple chose to re-create their ceremony to read as though it were in 1776. As soon as they were announced as husband and wife, they exited in a yellow canoe, complete with a parasol. Thanks so much Camilla and Paul or choosing me to document your awe-inspiring wedding!

Amber & Kody are getting married in August at the beautiful Shakespeare Gardens in the International Rose Garden, with a lunch wedding reception at the amazing Portland City Grill. We recently met in SE Portland at Laurelhurst Park with their awesome dogs! (Yes, that's pretty much the cutest puppy you've ever seen!) I love photographing at Laurelhurst because it's a huge, inspiring nature park in he middle of the bustling city. I am super excited and honored to photograph Amber and Kody's wedding on August 3rd.

Jessica, you do such amazing work! We love the pics and can't wait to see more. We had such a great time working with you, it was relaxing and fun. It went from "Sit. Sit. Stay....no! Dresden Stay......Puppies! Look over here!" to "Now kiss......hold it.....hold it.......now smile!" We (and the pups) can't wait for the big day!
