Rashree and Anthony had their wedding on Abigail’s Garden at the Abernethy Center in Oregon City. This was such a fun group of people I really had fun capturing their day. They had an early morning wedding complete with a waffle brunch that was deliciously made by the caterers at Aberenthy Center. Half way through the reception the ladies in the bridal party changed into beautiful multi-colored sari’s.

We had a blast photographing Megumi and Ben’s wedding at beautiful Garden Vineyards in Hillboro, Oregon. Liza from Quince Flowers in Portland made the venue so elegant with her amazing floral design. Art of Catering did a amazing job too! I loved that they were serving cocktails in mason canning jars, so much fun.

Portland does not have a lot of rooftop wedding venues. So when we I heard that Melissa and Minh were going to have their wedding at DeSoto Rooftop Terrace, I was very excited!
The wedding was tons of fun. It was a beautiful day and Melissa and Minh turned their backyard into a beautiful wedding site. The guests were a very friendly bunch. There were even couple Turkish people there, which was really cool. Grandpa was the ring bearer and did a great job! It was also interesting to see a twin lens reflex camera. Melissa’s sister Airyka is also a professional photographer and was shooting with a Yashica TLR. Meanwhile at the house, I had the pleasure of seeing Minh’s photography as well. Great job!
Minh gave each flower girl an ukelele! They loved them! The couple went from the ceremony at their house to the wedding reception at Desoto Rooftop Terrace with pedicabs! It was fun.
And during the formals, we had a visitor from Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence!
The guests were welcomes at the ceremony and reception by a gypsy jazz / swing band, and it was fun to see some of the familiar faces.

Tiffany and Thomas were married at the elegant Fairgate Inn in Camas Washington. It was a great ceremony officiated by their friend, but what’s even more unique is that the officiant used his iPhone instead of traditional methods, including Thomas’ vows were on it. The reception was filled with fun dancing and ice cream from Party Scoop, a photobooth from Paparazzi Tonight and a grand sparkler send off!

Afif and Elizabeth’s wedding as a high energy wedding with lots of kids and belly dancing! Ceremony was at Calvary Lutheran Church at Stayton.
During the reception, Elizabeth started doing some middle eastern/belly dancing as well. There were beautiful hand written prints on the walls at the reception. Also, bride’s sister, Jae, is a very talented singer / songwriter. She was singing during the first part of the processional which was very special for the family.

Marissa and Daniel had their wedding at the stunning Skamania Lodge overlooking the scenic Columbia Gorge. I have always wanted to photograph a wedding at Skamania lodge as I have eaten their awesome Sunday brunch many times and have always been mesmerized by the location.
This being a Jewish wedding, there were many Jewish traditions too, my favorite it is the hora (chair dance) of course. I love seeing the looks on the faces of whoever is being lifted in the air. Since their wedding was on July the 11th they also served Slurpees to their guests, honoring their 7-11 date. Marissa was a trouper - she had a cast/boot on her leg but you could not tell from the way she danced all night! The groom had scrabble cuff links - very cool! Marissa’s mother, Carol, is an accomplished photographer - check out her beautiful work here. Her dad, Daniel Isaak is also a very respected rabbi.
