congratulations christina & jason!

christina and jason tied the knot earlier this summer in southeast portland. they are such a fun couple, and their wedding was so sweet! i loved that christina sang as jason played guitar as part of their wedding ceremony- so cute! there were so many great people that were a part of this day- what a good time! thanks, j&c!

married in the vineyard

i love-love-love winery weddings! and it doesn't get much better than the perfect september day that randall and jamie tied the knot at elk cove vineyards in gaston, oregon. the perfect blue sky, the lush, green vines, and jamie's gorgeous wine colored roses- wow! cheers, you two!

atsushi and shanti's amazing day

...yet another wedding that i had the pleasure of shooting with the fabulous katie kelly!
atsushi and shanti met while shanti was traveling in japan, and now they live together in tokyo. it was so incredible to have atsushi's friends and family at the wedding all the way from the other side of the world! these two are so in love, and so fun to be around. it didn't even matter to anyone that it started sprinkling during their reception at the rhododendron garden! how do you say "congratulations" in japanese?!

my very own portrait

earlier this summer my dear friend katie kelly snapped a few shots of me so that i would have a decent photo of myself for my website. while i still haven't made the time to re-work my site, here is one of my favorite photos from that day. thanks, kk! i love ya!

aaron and andrea!

i photographed aaron and andrea's wedding with katie kelly. this sweet couple got married on august 12 in front of several hundred friends and family, and had a memorable and colorful reception. i loved the flowers and other details of the day. congratulations a & a!

rachel & derek tie the knot!

i felt so fortunate to be able to be a part of my dear friend rachel's wedding a few weeks ago. rachel married her sweetie at their gorgeous new home in southern california. she looked amazing (yes, her hair is naturally red and long and perfect!) and it was so sweet that their children were a part of the ceremony and festivities. congratulations rachel and derek! i love you guys!
