Zenith Vineyards is one of the prettiest places to have a wedding in Oregon. Last vineyard wedding I shot there was completely outdoors, so I was excited to shoot the reception indoors this time. It is such a classy, elegant location. Of course, when you have a fun and photogenic couple, it makes my life easier too! Kyle is a professional soccer player who stole Brittany’s heart years ago. It was great to see their friends from school, from Adidas, and from other walks of life honor the couple at their most special day.

Lauren and Channing had a fun filled wedding at the Garden Vineyards. The day was perfect, not too hot, not too cold, the food was fantastic, and everybody had a great time! Michael Allen Harrison, pianist, and Tanner Johnson, violinist, performed great music for the guests. Teonna Earp was the coordinator and the florist, and it was some of the most creative and amazing flower arrangements I ever seen. Garden Vineyards was the perfect back drop for the wedding. I was also very impressed with how the cupcakes were hanging from a cupcake “tree”. Beautiful!
Lauren looked stunning in her Monique Lhuillier gown and Jimmy Choo shoes. Her hair was a beautiful vintage style.
Since we have a lot of photos, I am breaking it in to 2 parts - to see the rest of the pictures, click here: Part 2 - the Reception.

Brandi and Andrew started their morning off at the Vancouver Hilton getting ready for their big day. Once everybody was ready they all headed to St. James Catholic Church a few blocks away. Brandi and her father had the best ride though in her dad’s super cool vintage car! Their ceremony was at Vancouver St. James Church, which has one of the most stunning ceilings I’ve ever seen! After the ceremony their friends and family lined the steps of the church to greet them with bubbles as they exited the church. We drove South to the East Portland waterfront for some fun and romantic photos afterward. For the reception we headed to the West side’s Portland World Trade Center, which is an amazing downtown location with graced with abundant glass architecture with dramatic views of the Willamette River and the Salmon Street Fountain. I love the lighting at Portland World Trade Center, just yummy!

Leslie and Nick had their wedding in Portland on the rooftop of the Portland Historic Treasury Ballroom. We love rooftop weddings in Portland!
We got some great ceremony shots of Leslie and Nick featuring some of Portland’s more famous buildings on top of the rooftop terrace of Portland Treasury Ballroom. For their wedding cake, they had a great idea - truffles from a uniquely Portland chocolatier, Moonstruck Chocolates Truffles! After the wedding ceremony, the guests enjoyed great catering of food and drinks by Vibrant Table while Andy, from A Sound Choice was making the dance floor come alive with the wedding guests with his mixes! We also did some pictures of the wedding couple in front of Portland Treasury Ballroom!

Cathy and Ahmed were married on the beautiful patio overlooking the vineyards of the Northwest Viticulture Center. Cathy’s sister, a florist and owner of Rhyme and Reason in Salem, Oregon, beautifully decorated the entire venue with stunning arrangements. The undergoing theme of the wedding was Casablanca, which was projected on screens in the reception area. Casablanca took place in Morocco, Ahmed’s native country. Cathy and Ahmed loved getting their photos taken, so we got to shoot in many locations on the vineyard.
Some of the cool highlights: river stones with words on them to make poems, home brewed beer (it was good!)
Ceremony Location: Chemeketa Eola
Baker: Papa Haydn
Florist: Rhyme and Reason

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.
