Lea and Stephen’s Vancouver, Washington wedding was a small, family affair with a lot of personal touches. From a bagpiper to Scottish dancing to brooch bouquet made by Lea’s cousin, there were many personal touches. And there was even a Skype guest to watch the wedding remotely from Scotland. I love small weddings where everyone knows each other!I also loved that they used their engagement picture as the background for the vase during the sand ceremony!

Nicole and Alex tied the knot at a garden ceremony at a beautiful private residence in Lake Oswego! There was no shortage of color, from the striking decorations and flowers by Monty to glass art work by Chihuly.
I had a chance to work with some amazing vendors as well! Austie Eckley, one of Portland’s premier make up artists did a fantastic job with Nicole and the weddign party! Delicious food by Food In Bloom, gorgeous flowers and coordination by Monty from A Fine Flower Company and awesome bangra, jai ho! and bollywood party by DJ Prashant. In fact, DJ Prashant (and Armaan) got the crowd going crazy with their fun style and had the bride and groom on stage showing how it is done!

I loved the colors Erika chose for her Portland World Trade Center wedding! It is not always easy to make the blue work but her wedding party rocked it!
One of the most lovely things was Erika’s grandfather officiated the wedding at the Portland World Trade center! It was a very touching moment!

Alex and Shane had a low key and intimate wedding at the Peninsula Park in Portland, Oregon. I love shooting at the Peninsula Park, I used to live nearby and always enjoyed the beauty of it. Peninsula Park was Portland’s first public rose garden and the official rose of Portland, named Mme. Caroline Testout, was cultivated at Peninsula Park. Ok, enough trivia, now to more details.
Alex wore these amazing shoes! I love them. And Shane was like a GQ model. It was strictly family affair and featured some amazing Indian food. Getting ready was at A Painted Inn bed & breakfast, and the reception at their house. The flowers are by Punch and they were beautiful! This was a short coverage but we got great photos!

Here are some quick highlights from Stephanie and Wiley’s wedding at the LDS Brogden Building and reception following at Abernethy Center in Oregon City! I have never seen a couple that laughs so much! It is contagious. My favorite parts of their wedding include the custom cuff link’s made by Wiley’s relative, and an Italian Soda bar. They also had a very cute video interview about themselves and the bubble send off worked really well!

You just realize how nice and genuine Jerae and Steve are the moment you meet them. They are super sweet together and a joy to work with. Their wedding reflected their easy going and fun personalities. One of my favorite details was Jerae making her own brooch bridal bouquet with brooches from Ebay and Etsy (and lace around the handle is from a family heirloom wedding dress). Mike Piper with An Affair To Remember did a wonderful job with the flowers and Garden Vineyards is such a gorgeous location to start out with, not much needs to be done!
The wedding favors are seeds to plant! One of my favorite things is the presence of kids at weddings, and there were quite a few super cute kids! Oh cake is by Beaverton Bakery, and hair and make up was by Heidi Cuthbert of National Beauty. The DJ is one of my favorites, Maushole Productions. Food, amazing as usual, is from Art of Catering.
Enjoy!

This is one of my favorites: The groomsman on the right forgot to turn off his cell phone, and of course it rang during ceremony. The ring bearer’s reaction is priceless!
