Pam & David {Oregon Wedding Photography}

in ,

Pam and David were married at their home in Silverton, Oregon. Their ceremony was non-traditional in many ways, as this is the second marriage for each of them. Instead of the usual bridesmaids and groomsmen, their grown children stood with them at the altar. It was so beautiful to see them surrounded by love from their joined families.

Their house is just gorgeous, and is surrounded by beautiful flowers and greenery - as well as a vineyard on the property (sadly there wasn't time to go there for portraits, but we found fun spots anyway!).

Pam looked so beautiful!

David has owned the property since the 1970's, and there are all sorts of cool antique objects around the barn that they used for the reception.

As favors, Pam & David gave their guests jars of homemade jam, with the most adorable labels and decorated lids.

All of their family was so funny and easygoing - I had a great time with their portraits!

It was such a lovely ceremony!

The rain held off until exactly the end of the ceremony - that's Pam's daughter Carolyn trying to shield her mother's head from the raindrops - but it wouldn't be a true Oregon wedding without a bit of rain. :)

The guests hurried to the barn for the reception. The barn was decorated beautifully with twinkling lights, flowers, and family photographs.

Congratulations, Pam & David!

Joanne and Jared were married at the Pacific Crest Grand Ballroom in Oregon City in May, surrounded by their wonderful families and friends. I can't say enough nice things about this wedding - everyone was so nice and the ceremony was so meaningful. Joanne and Jared are also ridiculously good-looking, as you will see. :) Thanks to Jay Eads for having me along! We began at Weatherford's Grand Lodge for portraits of the bridal party.

I just love the giddy smiles in the next one.

everyone wants a cake-cutting picture :)

Congratulations to Jared, Joanne, and their families!

I have been on a sort of blogging hiatus this month - what with getting settled in Portland and trying to get my portfolio site up and running, I've let it fall by the wayside! But I'm excited to share some of the work I've done lately, starting with this headshot session. Maggie and I met in NW Portland to shoot her new headshots. Huge congratulations to her for getting signed to a new modeling agency! I had a wonderful time photographing her - she's so athletic, not to mention drop dead gorgeous. Enjoy!
