Fall is my favorite time of year for a wedding. The light is beautiful, the leaves are changing, and the weather is perfect. The most wonderful thing about this wedding was celebrating the union of a perfect match, Andrew and Hanne. The two decided on the Ecotrust Building for their wedding as a way of having their wedding fit their love of the planet. The Ecotrust building is a LEED Certified building in NW Portland. They exclusively work with other vendors who create or provide earth-friendly options for clients like Hanne & Andrew’s caterer Simpatica. The fabulous flowers were provided by a local favorite Sammy’s Flowers. Hanne’s chic wedding dress was found at a downtown dress shop The English Department – I just can’t get enough of Elizabeth Dye’s designs. green.salon made Hanne’s curls look so lovely. Andrew had a suit taylor made for the event at one of my favorite places in Portland, Duchess Clothier, and it looked so snazzy! Andrew and Hanne are big time beer fans and they toasted their guest with a delicious selection from theUpright Brewing Company. Ooh and I musn’t forget the delectable cake and cupcakes from Petunias. Everything about this wedding was fresh, local and fantastic! They planned it out so well.
Now the two love birds are off to enjoy some fun in Hawaii!
Congratulations Andrew and Hanne. To see all of the image from the day view the gallery.

We have so enjoyed getting to know Kaitlin & Phil in the past few months leading up to their big day. We photographed Kaitlin and Phil last year as guests at Kate & Brian Griffis’ wedding, so we were just thrilled when they asked us to shoot their fantastic wedding this summer. As fate would have it, the newlyweds simply could not have asked for a better day to tie the knot. The late summer weather in gorgeous Marion County cooperated wonderfully (despite a little drizzle early in the day), with the pastoral sprawl of rolling green hills and golden fields setting the perfect backdrop to capture the occasion. The entire wedding party seemed to be jumping for joy from the very beginning, and that spirit of happiness and love certainly didn’t make it difficult to capture the candid wedding day moments we love so much. We wish Kaitlin & Phil the very best and can’t wait to see what great things they have in store for the future together.
