Lauren and Ryan tied the knot at the gorgeous Portland Lan Su Classical Chinese Gardens. It was a super fun wedding, coordinated by Kerry Garrow of Signature Weddings and Events. The other vendors for this Portland Chinese Gardens wedding were like a best of the wedding vendors in Portland. Lauren and Ryan wanted a Portland theme wedding and allocated enough time for us to go around town on Portland wedding pedicabs (Portland Pedicabs). We got some amazing pictures going around town. The beautiful bridesmaids and handsome groomsmen did their part in making the day run smoothly as well! The getting ready was at Hotel Lucia. After Hotel Lucia, the wedding moved to Chinese Gardens. I had some unique toasting images and instead of the cake, they had amazing cupcakes from Cupcake Jones. The crowd danced until late hours with help from amazing DJ Eric Wright of All Wright Music. Delicious food was served on bamboo platters - perfect for the theme and the environment, thanks to Vibrant Table Catering and Events. Flowers are by A Floral Affair.

I loved the colors Erika chose for her Portland World Trade Center wedding! It is not always easy to make the blue work but her wedding party rocked it!
One of the most lovely things was Erika’s grandfather officiated the wedding at the Portland World Trade center! It was a very touching moment!

Alex and Shane had a low key and intimate wedding at the Peninsula Park in Portland, Oregon. I love shooting at the Peninsula Park, I used to live nearby and always enjoyed the beauty of it. Peninsula Park was Portland’s first public rose garden and the official rose of Portland, named Mme. Caroline Testout, was cultivated at Peninsula Park. Ok, enough trivia, now to more details.
Alex wore these amazing shoes! I love them. And Shane was like a GQ model. It was strictly family affair and featured some amazing Indian food. Getting ready was at A Painted Inn bed & breakfast, and the reception at their house. The flowers are by Punch and they were beautiful! This was a short coverage but we got great photos!

Jillian and Desi had a Turkish themed rooftop wedding at the On Deck Sports Bar in Portland on a beautiful summer day. I had the pleasure of photographing their Istanbul engagement pictures. Their wedding planner Mandi of Champagne Events helped them with some beautiful details and thanks to her, everything ran beautifully. They also had a great idea - instead of wedding cake, serve baklava! Of course, I knew where best Baklava in Portland was, so I steered them to 7 Hills Turkish Food Cart on 48th and Division (check it out!).
The flowers were by Floral Designs by Alicia, who is very talented as well. The wedding favors were Nazar Boncugu, or Turkish Evil Eyes, beautiful glass pieces that help ward off evil! The DJ was one of the top DJ’s in Portland: http://www.djalicious.com
