    I am not going to lie, getting a wedding or session published on a much beloved wedding blog makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. And don’t you couples lie, it is fun to see your photos on a larger site getting all kinds of love. Let’s be honesty, it’s just fun!

    Last week I had the pleasure of having Natalie & Kevin’s August 2011 Bridal Veil Lakes wedding published on the always lovely & inspiring DIY Bride.

    is there anything better than wedding dress shopping?

    It was my pleasure this weekend to hang out with the lovely ladies of AniA Collection in downtown Portland. The shop is always amazing, but the glamor was extra special this weekend with the Lazaro Trunk show in town. I was asked to come in and capture some of the show, and assist soon to be brides with photos of them in their wedding dress options. It really was such a fun time. I mean really, what is more fun thank trying on glamorous wedding dresses?! The show was a busy one, and the AniA staff was extra busy, but we all had a great time, and met some beautiful brides.

    Here are a couple snaps from the show.

    Flowers provided by the lovely & talented Stephanie Major with Petalos.

    Amy & Greg’s over the top amazing NYE wedding

    What can I say about Amy & Greg, they are sweet, creative, endlessly stylish & know how to throw a party.  (You may remember Amy & Greg from their fun engagement session not too long ago.)  These two knew what they wanted, and put together one of the best weddings I have ever had the opportunity to capture. When we first met Amy said she had a clear vision of what she wanted but was having a hard time finding the right vendors to pull it all off. Imminently I knew Amy needed to meet my girl Stephanie of Petalos. Stephanie does floral & event design, but that really does not cover it. She has a super creative mind, and the know how to pull it off. She is an artist. After these two met I started getting all manner of pinterest links, styling boards, and excited voice-mails. Yeah, I knew it was going to be a good wedding. :)  

    The big day was held at the Hotel DeLuxe, and every detail and moment went off seamlessly. Amy & Greg celebrated with friends and family into the new year. The flowers, the food, the favors, all so much fun.

    Aside from the styled elements and details, (and man they were amazing!) the wedding was heartfelt and incredibly moving. Every detail from the officiate’s speech to the kiss at midnight made me so darn happy to spend my new years with this special couple. I loved getting to know their entire family and loving groups of friends. It was an amazing day, and I am so excited to share it with all of you!

    Here are a few of the vendors that made the day so special:

    Event planning, paper goods, coordination & floral: Petalos

    Venue: Hotel De Luxe

    Amy’s Dress: Ivy & Astor from the English Dept

    Bridesmaid dresses – Nordstrom

    Chauffeur – classic chauffeur 
    Umbrella – Bella Umbrella

    Food: Gracies on site

    Music: Event Team Entertainment

    Cake & Desserts: Le Cookie Monkey

    On to the photos already!

    You are comfortable right? This is going to be a LONG one kids…

    Amy & Greg thank you again for having us out to capture your amazing wedding. It really was my pleasure to point my camera at you two again. From the first moments of getting ready, to the last kiss of the night it was an amazing day. I truly loved getting to know all of your friends and family. Weddings like yours remind me how much I love my job, and make me even more excited for all 2012 holds. I am so happy for you two, wish you all the joy in the world and much love in your life together. I hope you are loving your sneak peek. I have SO many more for you when the whole gallery is done.
