Katie & Charlotte’s amazing night.

    Remember the lovely and adorable Katie & Charlotte? Well last Friday they got all dolled up and made it official!

    It was my pleasure and an honor to capture their expression of love & some images of the big day. It was COLD one for sure, but we did not mind at all. The love between these two warmed us all up, and we had a great time running around downtown Portland getting some great images! Special thanks to the wonderful Maricar for being my right hand woman for the day. Waddling around downtown Portland at 7 months prego would not have been possible with out her!

    Charlotte & Katie  got ready at the amazing & elegant Hotel de Luxe in NW Portland, we shot downtown, and then did some photos at the ceremony site of the stunning Armory & Gerding Theatre. These two are absolutely wonderful to work with, and just spend time in general. When the couple is this beautiful, and the settings are this amazing, smiles all around!

    So on to the photos!

    Here are a few of my favorites so far:

    And check out Katie getting all pampered and looking amazing. Hair & make up was done by the lovely Ashley. (Girl you need a website so I can link to you!) Ashley was a champ working on her Birthday right!

    I also loved Charlotte & Katie’s rings, both complimentary and different.

    And here are our beautiful brides. Not the typical first photo together, but when you walk out side to some crazy firetrucks in front of the hotel you have to use it! Quite an exciting start to the evening!

    The bouquets, they can be found as a DIY kit (how I made ours) or custom style by the more talented then me, Megan at http://www.princesslasertron.com. It was one of my favorite projects for the wedding.

    Emily- you did a marvelous job! All the pictures are fabulous. Katie & Charlotte- everything looks so beautiful, especially you two!

    [...] Katie and Charlotte ordered their own felt flower kits to create the bouquets for their commitment ceremony last December. They are the perfect example of what I envisioned when I decided to start selling the kits–taking inspiration from the materials and creating something that perfectly suits you as a bride.
