walker and natalie | married at ecotrust | portland oregon wedding photographers

Walker and Natalie's wedding was hands down, one of my favourite celebrations of the year. I say celebration, because man, these people know how to celebrate. Also, big props for serving the most mind blowingly delicious entirely vegan/gluten free meal I've had in my life. Yeaaaaaaaah!

What started out as the desire to create a couple clean, beautifully lit bridal portraits, turned into something so much more, and for that, I am thankful. I am also thankful that things did stay simple, true to my approach to photography. Don't muck it up with a bunch of complications. Celebrate how you want, with who you want, and I will be honored to capture it just as it happens. Cheers, friends.

madeline + trevor | married at two rivers farm | portland oregon wedding photographers

One of my favourite parts of the summer was getting to second shoot more than I have in the past. I have been second shooting on and off since the beginning of my career, but since I'm still new to Portland, I wanted to gain as much local experience as I could. Second shooting provides such a lovely chance to change perspective, to capture a wedding day without the pressure of being the primary.

Madeline and Trevor were married at the incredible Two Rivers Farm, on a hot, hot July day last summer. These two are such a beautiful couple, and were so genuinely thrilled to be getting married. Plus, that moment during their vows, that the bride and groom (and everyone present) got so emotional that their dog came racing up front to comfort them pretty much made my heart explode.
