Troutdale Wedding

Yesterday was a gorgeous day in the Portland area and a perfect day for a wedding! Shawna and Leon were married at The Troutdale House, which is a beautiful and intimate spot in the heart of Old Town Troutdale.  The wedding party had a great time taking photos and the dance floor was constantly hopping! It was a fun day! Congratulations Shawna and Leon who are now off to The Dominican Republic for their honeymoon!

Enagement Session

I recently met up with this wonderful couple at Lacamas Lake Park.  It's difficult to express exactly how much fun I had with these two!  They were so excited to be there and to have their photos taken, they were willing to do all kinds of things like trample in the weeds, fight spider webs, and risk grass stains all for the sake of art.  We were laughing so much, my cheeks hurt by the end of the session!  They are so in love and enamored with each other, you can see it in their eyes!  I look forward to photographing their wedding in August!

Architecture

I'm a HUGE advocate of REACH Community Development and began working & volunteering for them a couple of years ago.  I would photograph anything from fundraiser car washes and dinners at McMennamin's Kennedy School to open house events and architectural shots.  I recently got a call from an architect that worked with REACH on one of the projects I photographed.  They liked my work and gave me a call to capture their Bridge Meadows building. Soon after photographing that property, I got another call to shoot a property in Washougal and then another building in Tigard!  It has been so much fun and I already have two more properties to photograph soon!  Here are some shots from the last few buildings.

Elk Cove Wedding

This couple was thrilled to have a break in the rain for their wedding!  We've had such a wonky year with weather, it's been difficult for brides/grooms to know what to expect on their wedding day.  Driving out to this wedding was gorgeous and I must say, the sunshine and blue skies didn't hurt!  Elk Cove Vineyards was beautiful and the reception hall had huge windows which overlooked the rolling hills and vineyards.  The ceremony was lovely and the family celebrated by dancing the night away at the reception!
