Portland Oregon Wedding and Portrait Photographer
Joni and Jeff had their wedding with friends and family at the Columbia Gorge Hotel, with breathtaking views of the Columbia River. Their ceremony was held on the edge of the Gorge with the river right behind them. After the ceremony everybody enjoyed the ambiance of the historic hotel.
I am getting ready to email my current clients with designs of my Christmas cards, so sit tight before sending in those cards! They are very nicely priced and turn around will be very quick!!
If your company have a corporate Christmas party or holiday event, please keep in mind that we are available for photographing them! Last year we did quite a few, and also worked with many top companies such as Microsoft, so you can rely on us to photograph your holiday season parties!
I think one of the most “oh my god!” moment we saw shooting weddings happened at Allison and Michael’s wedding - Michael reached for the ring shortly before the ceremony, and then realized the rings were not there. The sequence is pretty cool (in hindsight) and the rings came in later after the ceremony and they did a mini ring ceremony. Everything else ran smoothly as Emee from EJP Events did a great job making sure everything ran smoothly.
Other cool thing highlights: Allison and Michael’s dog, from Oregon Humane Society, was their dog ring bearer (and did a great job!) and they also had a fire dancer!
Catering was done by Vibrant Table, and make up was by fabuluous Event Cosmetics. The scene was beautiful and I love oregon farm weddings!
Christine and Matthew were married in Salem’s Zenith Vineyard. The vineyard was in a beautiful rural area, we even crossed the Willamette River on a ferry boat to get there, it was pretty cool. Everything looked spectacular from the table settings and food by Vibrant Table to the flowers by Green Thumb. The whole day was quite remarkable, especially the sunset over the vineyards. There was also the super funky DJ Nickel that they brought up from LA who had the dance floor packed the rest of the entire evening. It was so much fun!

Sarah and Tony were married at The Resort at the Mountain in Welches, Oregon. The Resort at the Mountain is a gorgeous golf resort at the base of Mt. Hood boasting breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, and the Zig Zag river. Their ceremony was a top a hill overlooking the golf course. Sarah’s brother and Tony’s sister both delivered heart warming performances during the ceremony which brought both tears and smiles to all the guests. During the toasts, Tony’s brothers showed a classic video which Tony had made of himself as a teenager flexing his “pythons” for the camera. The video went on for about 8 minutes, the whole place was alive with laughter, it was great. After the toasts and the cake, the dance floor was occupied all night long ending with Sarah’s rendition of Mr. Roboto. Domo Arigato.

Sarah and Patrick had a lovely wedding at the beautiful Blackberry Hall. The day started with a little oops when Patrick, on his quest for some pear brandy and whiskey broke some glasses at the McMenamins store, but that was the only misstep during the whole day. Everything ran smoothly, there were lots of dancing and everybody enjoyed the good times!
I also have to mention the many different types of pies that were waiting for the guests and the cool pie topper!
Ada and Brad had a very unique wedding, starting at the First Baptists Church in Portland, and then moving to Governor Hotel Heritage Ballroom. They had around 400 fun guests. Ada had three dresses for the various events, such as the tea ceremony - a traditional white dress, a red dress and a pink dress. Their wedding place cards were golf themed. The table decorations were gorgeous!
