Yvonne and Josh – Overlook House Portland
Yvonne and Josh had a lovely reception at the Overlook House in North Portland. I had never realized what a great location this was for a wedding, plenty of space both outdoor and inside the venue. The reception was held on the back lawn and the weather could not have been better! Yvonne made lots of the decor herself, and the whole reception had a really beautiful and somewhat vintage look to it (see the vintage cake topper as well). There was even a nod to star trek in the candy bags that guests received as gifts. It was a wonderful, really intimate celebration and I was lucky to be there!
Hilary and Michael’s Portland Wedding – Trinity Episcopal and Rontoms
Had a great time photographing the wedding day of Hilary and Michael. The wedding took place at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Portland, and the reception was at Rontoms. Hilary picked a beautiful shade of blue for the bridesmaid’s dresses that really complimented the yellow calla lilies in their flower arrangements. I loved the hand made flowers used to decorate the reception, and the day turned out to be mostly clear skies so the guests were able to make full use of the outdoor patio at rontoms.
Here’s a ink to the full gallery of wedding photos.
Portland Pug Crawl! Oregon Humane Society’s 12th Annual Pug Crawl
A few of our close friends have pugs, and last year when I heard about the pug crawl I was really disappointed that I’d missed it, so this year I made sure to head down and to Mactarnahan’s taproom and bring my camera along.
The Oregon Humane Society holds the pug crawl each year, proceeds go to help the OHS help animals in need.
All of the pugs (and people) looked amazing! The theme this year was Pug Nation, and the Parade of Pugs allowed all the pugs in attendance to show off their interpretations on the theme.
Below are some of my favorite pictures from the event, here is a link to the entire gallery of pictures.
If you see your pug and want a digital copy of the image, send me an email and I’d be happy to send it along. Thanks to everyone who dressed up their pugs and making this such a cute event to photograph!
Joanne and Garrett’s Wedding at Horning’s Hideout
It was such a lovely August day for Joanne and Garrett’s wedding at Horning’s Hideout near Portland, Oregon. Joanne looked absolutely stunning, and the venue could not have been a more perfect pick for these two. Dancing and celebrating went late into the night at their wedding site right near the lake, and lots of friends and family camped out at the wedding site after the ceremony. I was very impressed with all of the small details Joanne and Garrett put into their wedding, the beer, the decor, and Joanne even made all of the cupcakes herself (they were filled with a delicious custard, and I even got to take a few home with me, yum!). All in all, a very great day with a wonderful group of people.
