What a beautiful wedding this was! I’ve been looking forward to Phil and Eric’s wedding at the Armory all year, and it didn’t disappoint. You could really feel how excited this lovely couple was to be tying the knot. They had a beautiful ceremony on the mezzanine of the Armory, followed by a delightful brunch. Afterwards, we were lucky enough to have perfect weather as we took photos of the happy couple in Tanner Springs Park, and then ended the day with an all-you-can-play party and pizza at Portland’s beloved grown-up arcade, Ground Kontrol. The day really could not have gone any better. . .
Jason and Patrick’s backyard wedding was so wonderful! They asked their guests to wear blue, yellow, and white, and planted their garden to match, making their sun-filled yard a photographer’s dream. Add in mimosas, lovely brunch, bubbles, and a bunch of adorable kids, and what fun we had. Also, their touching, personal ceremony had tears in all the eyes. It was such a lovely day. . .
This Crag Rat Hut wedding was incredibly personal and amazingly beautiful. Even just editing the ceremony photos, weeks after the lovely event, made me tear up all over again - there were so many beautiful, memorable moments over the course of a gorgeous day. From the brides' excitement during their first look, to the prayer sang in three part harmony by the whole group and the brides tearing up during their ceremony, to the dinner made with the help of friends and family - everything was unique to this amazing couple . . .
I couldn’t have been more delighted to spend Sarah and Becca’s big day with them. These two lovely ladies met in elementary school, so it was fitting that they should tie the knot at McMenamins Kennedy School, a converted elementary school in NE Portland, Oregon. After a beautiful wedding ceremony in the courtyard (during which – I admit it – I joined in on some of the happy tears), the celebration in the school gym was lively and fun, filled with laughter, love, beautiful people and beautiful things. As a side note, this was only my second time photographing a gay wedding (and my first here in Portland) but I hope to photograph many more in the years to come!
I’m so excited to photograph Becca + Sarah’s wedding later this month! When we met up at Mt. Tabor Park in SE Portland last weekend to take some engagement photos we got to see a beautiful sunset, snuggled with their adorable pups, and generally had great fun. I’m so happy with the way the photos turned out! Stay tuned for more with this adorable couple.
