We’re so excited for Rasha and Vanna’s wedding this summer. I first met Rasha when she modeled for an id magazine cover shot, we had such a great time in that session. We simply had to work together again. I met up with Rasha and Vanna on one of our particularly perplexing spring afternoons at the Kennedy School in NE Portland. We somehow timed it just right so that we were only minimally rained on. The Kennedy school was such a great place for an engagement portrait session, at times it looks like a lush tropical garden, other times, a really cool old building. And we got to hang out and chat over a beer afterwards! An ideal Saturday afternoon.
Congratulations Rasha and Vanna! (more…)

I love my job! This summer I had the pleasure of planning and photographing Rich and Kevin’s lovely wedding at Timberline Lodge. It was classic and elegant, just like they are. They poured their hearts into every detail, making it a very special day. The live music by Matthew Kern and the Rose City Hot Club gave the day extra celebratory flair. Rich and Kevin made their own “eco-fabulous” wedding favors of a tree sapling ready to be planted, what better way for friend and family to remember this beautiful day. The weather couldn’t have been more clear and temperate. It was the perfect summer day in Oregon.

I just can’t say enough to express how fun and beautiful Delisse and Liz’s wedding was. As you can see they are beautiful women, but more so they are wonderful people and so in love! They both have such caring families who celebrated every moment with them, smiling, laughing, and high fiving the whole way. AND, it just so happened to be the most beautiful November day ever. Liz and Delisse decided to have their ceremony and reception at The White House B & B in Northeast Portland. A really gorgeous place surrounded by big, beautiful trees, showing off all the glorious colors of autumn. Everything was as it should be!

Watch this slideshow to see the story of their day!
