Helen and John, July 22nd 2012
When picking a wedding venue, Helen and John wanted to choose a place that highlighted the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Undoubtedly, Mt. Hood is one of the loveliest and most majestic of Oregon’s natural gems. After visiting the Resort at the Mountain, Helen and John decided that this getaway tucked in the Mt. […]
Jenna and Bryan, July 21st 2012
We’ve had a very busy summer so far, photographing portrait sessions and fabulous weddings like Jenna and Bryan’s. We have lots of beautiful images and moments we’re planning on sharing with you and I appreciate everyone’s patience as I prepare each wedding and/or portrait session for the blog.

If an intimate vineyard wedding on top of a hill overlooking the Willamette Valley sounds like your style than you must view this next blog post. Cherra and Bill were married on Saturday, July 14th 2012 on what turned out to be an exceedingly beautiful summer day. Kramer Vineyards was the perfect setting for their […]
Anna and Jason, June 16th 2012
This next wedding is too lovely for words. I’ll spare you my usual paragraph and will sum up Anna and Jason’s wedding day at Mt. Hood Organic Farms in one sentiment: Magical. Anna and Jason, your wedding day was full of love, joy, beauty, and abundant sunshine. Best wishes to you for a future together […]
Annalese and Aaron, March 24th 2012
If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you know what a rare gem a warm, sunny Saturday in mid-March is. It just so happens that Saturday, March 24th, 2012 was a beautiful day in Oregon. It’s on this gorgeous day in early spring that Annalese and Aaron chose to exchange their vows. Their intimate wedding […]

2011 in Review – Weddings & Engagements
At the beginning of each year, I like to take a moment to look back through everything that we photographed the year before. I feel fortunate to report that 2011 was a very good year for us. We photographed 22 weddings, 9 engagement sessions, and one save-the-date mini session. While that may not seem like […]
Kristin and Jeff, October 15th 2011
It’s here: our final wedding blog post of the year. As I’ve mentioned in years past, posting our last wedding of the year is always a little bittersweet for me. Although Lincoln and I look forward to a respite from our busy season, I know that we’ll also miss documenting happy days, like the one […]
Libbi and Aaron, October 9th 2011
It’s hard to believe that it’s already November. Time flew by too fast in 2011! We only have a couple of weddings left to the blog and I’m excited to share our next post with you. After shooting their save-the-date and engagement photo sessions, Lincoln and I had a feeling that Libbi and Aaron’s wedding […]
Rebecca and Logan, September 30th 2011
Meet Lobecca. Lobecca is the nickname for the dynamic and adorable duo pictured below, a.k.a. Logan and Rebecca. They were married this year on the last day of September at one of the loveliest natural areas in all of Oregon, Bridal Veil Lakes. Before you take a peek at this blog post, you may want […]
Brittney & Andrew, September 10th 2011
What a fun and memorable day this was! On Saturday, September 10th, 2011, Brittney and Andrew were married at St. James Lutheran Church, located in Portland’s South Park Blocks. After the ceremony, the bride, groom, and their guests walked or took the Portland Streetcar to the reception location, Urban Studio, located in the Pearl District. […]
Julie and Stephen, September 3rd 2011
If there are two people who love living life to its’ fullest potential, it’s Julie and Stephen. They are people who care deeply. They care for their family, their friends, Henry and Lexi (their dogs), and they care for one another. We had the opportunity to spend some time together just a few days before […]
Brandy and Adiam, August 27th 2011
Brandy and Adiam’s wedding day was one of the most exciting and action-packed celebrations that we’ve ever had the opportunity to photograph. They were married on Saturday, August 27th at The Madeline Parish in NE Portland, and their reception followed at the Adrianna Hill Grand Ballroom in downtown, Portland. As a couple, Brandy and Adiam are radiant. […]
Allie and Justin, August 21st 2011
It’s always exciting to travel to a new location to photograph a wedding. Lincoln and I especially enjoy traveling around the Pacific Northwest because the geography and climate vary dramatically, sometimes within miles of one another, and the landscapes are always breath-taking. With that in mind, we’d been looking forward to our trip to North […]
Melissa and Nick, August 13th 2011
If you love romance, you’re really going to love this next wedding. In fact, I think that it would be fitting to say that Melissa and Nick’s wedding embodied the word romance in every way! Surrounded by miles of grape vines, sweeping views of the Willamette valley, and the smiling faces of their family and […]
Jo and Ryan, August 6th 2011
Jo and Ryan’s wedding at Youngberg Hill Inn & Vineyards on Saturday, August 6th was full to the brim with so many beautiful and personalized details, I don’t even know where to begin! As someone who believes that weddings are not only about joining two people, but also about joining two families, I feel that […]
Shelly and Nathan, August 5th 2011
Love. That is what this next set of photos is all about. Love and playfulness wrapped up into one sweet couple that is Shelly and Nathan. You may recognize these two from their adorable engagement session that we did in and around the Pearl District last fall. We had such a great time that chilly […]
Danielle and Aaron, July 30th 2011
Trying to summarize how exciting it was to witness and photograph the wedding of two people who are not only our clients, but who have also become our friends, is not easy. Over the past year, Lincoln and I have had the opportunity to spend some quality time with Danielle and Aaron. We’ve witnessed to […]
Carolyn and Paul, July 17th 2011
I will never forget Carolyn and Paul’s wedding day. It’s not just because Carolyn and Paul are two of nicest people you will ever meet (they truly are) or that their wedding was wonderful on so many levels, it’s also because they had to make an unexpected venue change the day of their wedding. In […]
Laura and Eric, July 16th 2011
This next set of images reminds me that nothing can diminish true love or the human spirit. Just six days before they were to be married, Laura and Eric heard the news that their wedding venue, the View Point Inn, had been destroyed in a fire. With less than a week to find a new […]
Melanie & Chris, July 9th 2011
Of all of the photos we took on Melanie and Chris’ wedding day, the one below is my favorite. The reason why I’m smitten with this photo is because it’s sweet and playful, much like Melanie and Chris and their lovely wedding celebration. This adorable couple was married at a private residence in Estacada, Oregon […]
Keri and Ricky, July 3rd 2011
Keri and Ricky are one of the happiest couples I’ve ever met. You may remember these two from their engagement session last December at Peninsula Park. During their session, Lincoln and I learned that Keri and Ricky were high school sweethearts that were awarded the superlative of ‘Mr. and Mrs. Sunshine’ their senior year of […]
Sarah and Erik, July 2nd 2011
Sweetly romantic. Wildly beautiful. Comfortable and relaxed. These were just a few of the words that came to mind when thinking of ways to describe Sarah and Erik’s wedding day. Photographing this day was like documenting a chapter in the beautiful love story that is Sarah and Erik. They are in love and they were, […]
Stephen and Whitney, June 25th 2011
Sometimes I’m at a loss for words on what to write for each post. It’s not because I don’t have any thoughts or feelings about the photos or the people in them. It is simply because I feel that the photos tell a much better story than my words ever could. I believe that this […]
