Portland Oregon Wedding and Portrait Photographer
Molly and Jason had a beautiful wedding at the Governor Hotel! I had recently photographed Molly’s sister Kelly at the Oregon Golf Club.
Molly looked absolutely stunning with her dress from Anna’s Bridal. The flowers were by Star Flower. Catering was top notch by Jake’s Catering.
One of the highlights was the little photo shoot we did outdoors. It was very cool.
Guests and family can see the rest of the pictures here. Please ask for the password from the couple.
Teresa and Alton’s wedding was held at one of our favorite venues, the Acadian Ballroom. Their ceremony was in the center of the ballroom with a stunning array of beautiful flowers from Event Floral that amplified the natural style of the ballroom itself. Once the ceremony was over the party began, big time! Cocktail hour, Dinner, and Dancing. The works!

Ophelia and Matthew were married at the gorgeous Adrianna Hill Grand Ballroom, having both their ceremony and reception taking place in the large open room. Chinese traditions such as a tea ceremony during the reception and special details found throughout the wedding day, made the whole event both extra special and unique to Ophelia and Matthew. We also took the time to walk the streets of downtown that evening - this made for some romantic shots of just the two of them, peppered in amongst Portland’s downtown scenery such as Old Town and the Max line.
Their choice of a warm winter red for the details looked gorgeous juxtaposed to the incredible blue ceiling in the ballroom itself. Blue Hour Flowers incorporated that same red into all the bouquet’s and the groomsmen boutonnieres, creating flowers and details that visually popped throughout the room.
We also had the pleasure of working again with Travis, of Shields Films. The evening was further complimented with music during both the ceremony and reception and was provided by Stephen, of Celebration Music & Events.

Rachel and Andy tied the knot at the Acadian Ballroom, a classy ballroom for wedding receptions at Portland’s Alberta Arts District. Getting ready was at the Heathman Hotel, which provided some great window lighting for beautiful b&w pictures. We stopped by the Park Blocks for some portraits where Andy saw Rachel for the first time and could not hold back his tears. We got some more photos in front of the Oregon Historical Society and then headed to the Acadian Ballroom! The ballroom was beautifully decorated for the ceremony and then immediately after the ceremony, it was quickly switched by the talented staff to the reception seating.
Couple cute highlights from the wedding: The couple asked the guests to leave their favorite recipes for them (picture below), and also they made some goodie bags for the little ones to have a good time at the wedding!
Rachel and Andy put some beautiful pictures on the tables from their past couple years, and the cake table had pictures of their parents and grandparents pictures of cutting cake (cake by Beaverton Bakery). Tables were decoratedby beautiful flowers from Sophisticated Floral Designs.

Arian shot this wedding at Crown Ballroom which has a very unique look to it. Rose and Jon had a very cool idea about their wedding ceremony - everybody was arranged in a circle and they stood in the middle, at the center of a circle of rose petals.

Max train, as seen from Pythian Building where Crown Ballroom is located (and also Adriana Hill Grandballroom is there as well). Two great places for weddings!
Vada and Geoff’s wedding was full of fun people. It started at Salon 77 with make up, then to hotel Vintage Plaza and then to Old Laurelhurst Church. The reception was at Acadian Ballroom with a very energetic crowd! At one point Geoff took over the drums and rocked the place 
There was even a cute pug present on the dance floor!
Here is a little slideshow if you want to see more photos than what’s below.
This is right after they walked down the aisle!
Geoff rocking!
lawnmower baby!
Right outside the ballroom there was a car accident where a SUV and truck collided. Nobody was seriously hurt but I wonder how fast they were driving to flip over at Al berta Street?
