Kelley and Jeff’s Snowy Timberline Wedding!

Portland Wedding Photographer - April 26, 2017

This is the second snow covered wedding this year for us. Though it was a snow storm outside at Timberline Lodge (ceremony and reception at Raven’s Nest) and Mt Hood only made very few appearances, and here were giant icicles, the couple and their guests had a fantastic time, thanks to wonderful food and service from Timberline Lodge, and great music from Dancehall Days band. The …

Julianna and Ian’s Hood River Wedding

Portland Wedding Photographer - September 14, 2016

A lovely, intimate wedding with tremendous views of Mt. Hood among pear and apple orchards – what else one can ask for! When I first showed up at Ian and Julianna’s wedding, Mt. Hood was covered with clouds and frankly I was a little bummed that we were not going to get some epic shots with the Mt. Hood. However, fate was kind to us …

Snowcat bringing wedding guests to Silcox Hut Wedding

Andrea and Aaron had a small, cozy and very windy wedding at the Silcox Hut. There was a 70mph snow drift storm that had blocked the main entrance to the hut, and it created a beautiful, but wild environment. All the windows were covered with snow. The fireplace burned rapidly fueled by the air flow outside. The snowcat brought guests 8 at a time. I …

Springhouse Cellar Wedding of Amy and Dan

It is always a great honor to photograph good friend’s weddings. I have known Amy and Dan for years from swing dancing, and they are a super cute couple. They planned a lot of the details with help of friends, and decided to utilize Springhouse Cellar Winery at Hood River, Columbia Gorge.

Portland Wedding Photographer - October 2, 2013

This was a very sweet intimate wedding at the beautiful Timberline Lodge, one of the most beautiful and Oregon-esk wedding venues around!

Peter and Keely are a super sweet couple, and we were blessed that the …

Summer and Jon’s Wedding Rehearsal on the Mt. Hood Railroad and Wedding at Stonehedge Gardens

Portland Wedding Photographer - September 4, 2012

Â Summer and Jon’s wedding was different than a lot of traditional wedding. First of all, their rehearsal was on an actual moving train! What a cool idea! And then they had a volcano at their ceremony. Pretty cool. I also really loved all the little details like the butterfly place cards – even I had one! Stonehedge Gardens is a very beautiful location as well …
