Before Jenna and Joe’s wedding at The Croft Farm on Sauvie Island, I spent an hour with Joe and his guys at a trendy local Portland barbershop called Cloak & Dagger. Along with their fresh shaves, Joe and his guys also got whiskey shots to loosen up before the day got under way. It was […]

Taysha and Erik’s Seattle Aquarium wedding was so fun to photograph especially because it was at such a cool venue. It was right on the ocean and throughout the wedding you could roam around the aquarium and check out all of the sea life. You could even play with star fish. The ceremony was held […]

Last year was super busy and because of that I never got around to blogging any of my personal adventures. Amid all of my summer weddings, I managed to sneak in a mid-week hike up to the summit of Mount St. Helens with my friends James and Robert, who were gracious enough to invite me […]

For Quinlyn and Ren’s engagement, we photographed the majority of the session on Alberta Street. They had, however, recently moved into a new house, so we started there with some casual shots on their front porch and in their backyard to commemorate their new place. Afterward we drove over to Alberta Street for the remainder […]

Meghan and Zach’s wedding at Wind Mountain Ranch was on an unforgettable day. On my way to the wedding, as I drove along the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge a grey haze was accumulating on the Oregon side and slowly drifting across the river. When I arrived at Wind Mountain Ranch to begin […]

Suzy and Neil hosted their wedding at Springhill Cellars Winery, their gorgeous family vineyard in Albany, Oregon. Leading up to their wedding at Springhill Cellars Neil proposed to Suzy in the most romantic way one night while sitting in a giant windowsill overlooking a small city in Belgium while the townspeople roamed the streets below […]

After a six-month hiatus from blogging I’m back with Naomi and Nick’s Zenith Vineyard Wedding. I really wish I could have posted their wedding photographs, along with many others months ago, but I took on several more weddings than I have in previous years, which was great because I got to work with so many […]

One of the most touching parts of Annie and Mitch’s wedding at Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond, Oregon, was early in the day when Annie invited over for brunch all of the important women in her life. During that time, Annie explained to all of them how much they meant to her and how they […]

One thing that I love about photographing weddings at the Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Oregon, is that there is absolutely no shortage on color. Color has always been so important to my photography, both in the capture and in the edit, and when I have so many beautiful flowers to work with at the Oregon […]

I’d been looking forward to Meghan and Zach’s engagement session at Mt Rainier for a long time. Meghan and I actually went to the same high school and college, and Meghan likes to often bring up the hilarious fact that we used to swing dance together an awful lot during school dances back when Zoot […]

Kate and Hans were married at Rebers Riverside down a long gravel road in the middle-of-nowhere Yamhill. It’s the type of place where the local farmers and ranchers fly in on their personal airplanes for Sunday brunch because it makes more sense than driving. That’s quite literally what a maintenance man told me. Rebers Riverside […]

Sean and Elyse had the most amazing dance party during their wedding at the World Forestry Center in Washington Park. Photographing their friends and family on the dance floor was a highlight of the day. Their moves were so good! But before the reception got underway, there was tons of other good stuff, too. The […]
