Lisa + Kåre . Cloud Mountain Farm . Trout Lake, WA Wedding

Lisa and Kåre’s wedding was one of my favorites. Ever. Why? Totally casual and low-key. Around 70 guests. Amazing setting (that’s Mt. Adams serving as the backdrop to their ceremony). Swedish traditions that made the day completely unique (Lisa is half Swedish, and Kåre moved from Sweden to be with her). A bicycle-shaped wedding cake. The best food I’ve ever had at a wedding (Taste Unique in Portland just opened last year, the chefs are straight out of Rome). And for their first dance, they got down to a live band performing Guns N’ Roses – Sweet Child O’ Mine. Awesome.

Britt + Jeff . Desoto Rooftop Terrace . Portland Wedding Photographer

Britt & Jeff’s wedding was a unique one for me – One of Britt’s bridesmaids is a wedding photographer as well, so I was brought in for a few hours to cover the ceremony and reception. It it was a gorgeous day and I’m so glad I could be there! It was kind of a weird feeling jumping in right before the ceremony and missing all of the getting ready and posed portraits, but there were still a lot of great photo opportunities and I had a lot of fun :) Congrats Britt & Jeff, thank you so much for having me!

Susan and Zack . Thyme Garden Wedding in Corvallis

Earlier this summer I photographed Susan and Zack’s wedding outside of Corvallis at The Thyme Garden – These two are so adorable, and I loved the setting. It was the perfect spot for an outdoor wedding – it’s out of town a ways, but there was a whole area where guests could set up tents and camp out for the night so they didn’t have to worry about driving the windy highway back to civilization after a few glasses of wine ;)

Here are a few of my favorite photos from their wedding!

Katie + Kevin . Wedding at The Fairgate Inn . Camas, WA

Major blog backlog going on here! All you Pacific Northwesterners know how it is – We have to take advantage of the nice weather when it’s here, so I’ve been doing a ton of shooting and not much blogging. There is a LOT to be posted though! Here are a few shots from back in July of Katie and Kevin’s wedding at The Fairgate Inn in Camas, Washington.

Emily + Alex – Engagement Session

These two were so adorable, I had a lot of fun shooting their engagement session a few weeks back – I think I told them how cute they were at least 200 times :) I’ll be shooting their wedding in Eugene next month, can’t wait!
