Wedding Photography Timeline Intro The wedding photography timeline is going to set the tone for your wedding. So establishing a smooth flow is extremely important. Below I’ve created a fairly comprehensive list of recommendations that I give to all of my clients. I believe they make a wedding day photography timeline run effortlessly. This post […]

Quinlyn and Ren’s wedding at The Colony in St Johns was one of the last weddings I photographed in 2018, and it was a great way to cap off the year. The newlyweds were one of the most genuine couples I’ve ever worked with. I had the joy of shooting their engagement session at their […]

Booking a wedding venue may be one of the biggest wedding planning decisions you make. There are a number of factors in play: location, price, easy of access, aesthetics, services offered, etc. It can be a lot to account for everything, and it can be easy to let important details fall through the cracks. For […]

When Jessica and Cameron first contacted me about photographing their wedding in Sequoia National Park, they really want to have their portraits taken at Moro Rock. I had never been up to Moro Rock before, but the pictures I found online looked like it was a beautiful location for wedding portraits. I was definitely on […]

Smith Rock is one of my favorite locations for photographing engagement sessions. The landscape is seriously epic. It’s also very accessible, and you don’t have to hike a bajillion miles to get amazing views. During our initial meeting, Zarina and Chris told me how they had gotten engaged on a mountaintop in the Dolomites. I […]

I actually photographed this Mt Hood Meadows wedding at the tail end of last winter. For whatever reason I never got around to posting it. Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of client meetings, shooting, and editing I don’t find time to post every wedding. Now that I’m all caught up on last year, I’ve […]

Last year wrapped up my eighth year photographing weddings and engagements and it was a wild, rewarding ride. I kicked off the year with a few winter weddings in and around Portland before jetting off on a month-long trip to Europe to photograph an elopement in Switzerland and explore a few other countries that were […]

I had been eagerly waiting to photograph Morgan and Kyle’s destination wedding in Sonoma, California all year. I mean, who wouldn’t love an excuse to visit the beautiful rolling wine country hills of Sonoma County? Last year, I first met Kyle when he contacted me to photograph him surprise Morgan with a ring at the […]

Lauren and Brennan hosted their wedding at Gorge Crest Vineyards one of my favorite venues to photograph in the Columbia River Gorge. Gorge Crest Vineyards is located on the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge across from Hood River. It features a gorgeous barn with large doors that face open toward Mt Hood framed […]

I would have to say the big highlight of my summer was hiking South Sister. People have been telling me for your years to do this hike, and I’m stoked to finally tick it off my bucket list. It sure did impress. Two of my friends and I summited together. This was our third attempt, […]

The Redwood Deck in Hoyt Arboretum is one of my favorite places in Washington Park for an engagement session. I often find myself returning to this spot. The red color of the giant sequoia trees’ bark lends the forest a warm glow that’s incredibly peaceful, and standing on the deck being surrounded by these redwoods is […]

Morgan and Lee hosted their wedding at Roshambo Artfarm in Sheridan, Oregon, one of the cooler venues I’ve photographed a wedding at this year. Every structure and decoration at the farm appears to be some kind of found object piece of artwork. The vibe of Roshambo Artfarm reminds me of a mini Oregon Country Fair, […]
