I photographed the annual corporate party of Vibrant Table catering. It was at the super fun Oaks Amusement Park in Sellwood, which is a cool amusement park with roller coasters, bumper cars and just about everything else fun! There was even a Sumo wrestling showdown between the staff! It was awesome! I love photographing Portland corporate parties where the staff gets to get crazy!

Pamela and Aaron, a lovely couple from New Mexico decided to have their wedding in one of the most beautiful vineyards in Oregon, Garden Vineyards. We met up a bit early to capture both Pamela and Aaron getting ready with their friends and family, we followed them in a bus that they rented to the Pittock Mansion in NW Portland. There is an amazing view of the whole city from that view point!
After the ceremony the evening festivities took over, featuring a delicious meal from Art of Catering and then to Aaron from Maushole Productions taking care of the music and setting the mood on the dance floor. At the evenings end Pamela and Aaron had one last task to accomplish, the gauntlet of fire. No, just sparklers, but they look pretty scary when your running through them fast!
Guests and family can see the full set of pictures here. Please ask for the password from the couple.

Vibrant Table did a tremendous job in decorating the event. Everything was top class. The resulting affect was amazing and it was one of the most wonderfully designed events we’ve ever seen produced from Vibrant Table! Music by Ruslan String Quartet and Design Band!
Here’s some of our favorite highlights from the event:
