Sneaking you a little peek behind the scenes of Toni & Ian’s wedding day ✨

Their ceremony took place on the redwood deck at Hoyt Arboretum, surrounded by towering trees, soft sunlight, and the sweetest live music drifting through the forest 🌲🎶 The weather couldn’t have been more perfect — warm, gentle, and absolutely made for saying “I do.”

After vows, we headed downtown to Adina for their reception.

Just another example of why I love what I do — capturing love stories and every in-between moment, not just the posed ones 🤍

Well, you can't say that's not original. 😅

Sneaking you behind the scenes of Sarah & Daniel’s intimate “I do’s” at McMenamins Grand Lodge in Forest Grove ✨

From the moment I arrived, their day felt relaxed and joyful. McMenamins always makes everything so seamless — kind, attentive staff, in-house table and linens, plus delicious catering ,all under one roof 🙌. Letting couples be fully present, because they know the day is in good hands.

There were so many smiles, much laughter, and so many little moments in between. These are the kinds of days that remind me why small weddings are so magical — nothing forced, just love, joy, and your favorite people close by. 🥂

If you’re dreaming of an intimate celebration in Oregon, Washington (or beyond!), I’d be honored to tell your story in a way that feels true to you. Let’s start planning your day together. 💌

Behind the scenes with Cari & Forest 🤍⁠
Lavender Owl Farm in Canby was the perfect setting for their wedding day — clouds in the sky, the strings of a violin as the ceremony began, and the soft hum of guests settling in. 🎶🌿⁠

Their sweet daughter is still a bit too little to be a flower girl, but she took her job as “official front row observer” very seriously, watching Mom & Dad say “I do”. 🥹✨⁠

Family, friends, and even a few curious chickens wandering by (farm perks 🐓) made the whole day feel relaxed and intimate. ⁠

If you’re dreaming of a wedding day that feels honest, joyful, and real — I’m here to tell your story exactly as it unfolds. 📸💕⁠

To everyone who celebrates, I hope you had a beautiful Mother’s Day. 💐

Shout out to all the moms, mom-to-be’s, bonus moms, grandmas, aunties, and every single person who lovingly steps into that “mom” role. You are seen, valued, and deeply appreciated. 🫶

Shortly before Mother’s Day, I had the honor of photographing amazing mamas with their families (including mine—can you spot us? 👀) in a fun photo booth sponsored by .realtor and . Moms were treated to drip coffee, flowers, and of course a photo with their family!

It was such a fun event, I love turning quick little moments into memories you can hold onto for years. 📸

How did you spend the day? I’d love to hear about your Mother’s Day in the comments. 💛

Early morning magic at the World Forestry Center ✨

I spent the morning touring and photographing, this stunning venue, with an incredible group of corporate event planners, and wow — what a treat! Between networking with so many talented pros, sipping hot coffee, and drooling over the most beautiful conchas, it was the perfect start to the day. ☕️🥐 Big shoutout to Cheryl's on 12th for the beautiful spread and the agua frescas — the watermelon was my absolute fav 🍉🙌 Also to Arden Event Collectivei for the beautiful and bright linens, they really helped bring out the Cinco de Mayo theme.

We explored their premium event spaces, each one with its own charm. I’m especially smitten with the Discovery Museum and Fountain Hall — such a beautiful setting where guests can not only gather, but actually play, explore, and have fun. Imagine a corporate event that feels like an experience, not just a meeting. ✨🌲

If you’re dreaming up your next retreat, gala, conference or corporate celebration, this spot is one to keep on your radar.

Pssst….they also host weddings too!

May the 4th be with you ✨

A favorite thing about so many of my couples, is how delightfully nerdy you are. As a fellow sci-fi lover, nothing makes me happier than when you bring that fandom into your love story—like showing up to your engagement session with your *own* lightsabers! 🔦💫

From dramatic “duels” at sunset to cozy, starry-eyed moments that feel straight out of a galaxy far, far away, these sessions are such a fun reminder that your photos should feel like *you*. Your quirks, your inside jokes, your fandoms—this is what makes your story uniquely yours, and it’s my honor to capture it all.

So here’s to the jedis, the smugglers, the princesses, and the droids who find their perfect co-pilot. 💍🚀

Some weddings just feel like a big warm hug, and Jade & Isaac’s day was exactly that. 🥹✨

From the moment I met them (thanks to the sweetest referral from past PBC couple Jordan & Ryan 🙌), I knew this was going to be special. And then, to my total surprise, a future 2027 couple of mine, Kevin & Whitney, just casually happened to be guests?! My photographer heart could barely handle it. 🥰

Great people know great people. And this day was FULL of them.

Behind the scenes we had it all:
🐴 a *serious* mini horse hunt
🍌 banana katanas (yes, really 😂)
💍 so much love, laughter, and happy tears

These are the kinds of days that remind me why I do what I do—documenting not just the big moments, but the silly, chaotic, joy-filled in-betweens that tell the real story.

Tell me in the comments: what’s the most unexpected or hilarious thing you’ve ever seen at a wedding? 👇
