I know I’ve promised these pictures for a while now, but now I’m finally done! The getting ready pictures and portraits were taken at the Nines in downtown Portland, the wedding ceremony was held at Southwest Bible Church in Beaverton, and the dinner reception was held at Columbia Edgewater Country Club on Marine Drive.
Thank you again for choosing me to photograph your special day!

I’ve photographed many weddings, but this was the first sealing I’ve shot at. For the uninformed such as myself before I was invited to come photograph the event, “sealing” is being married, forever! This is a big step as weddings end with “til death do you part”. Here, you are married even after you die! Pretty sweet.
Anyway, here are the photos from Portland Oregon Mormon (LDS) Temple:
I had the privilege of attending Lori and Sikhiu’s Wedding this past weekend at the Embassy Suites. I wanted to be more of a guest than a shooter, so I tried to stay out of the way as much as possible again. The good news is, I didn’t shoot as much as Julie and James’ wedding so I got to mingle a bit more instead of hiding behind my camera. The bad news is, my definition of a simple set up was a D700 + 80-200 2.8 AFS… not exactly small – but it is the only zoom lens I own and I can safely grab shots from a distance. I even left my camera bag in the car! Highly pocketable combo if you fancy MC Hammer pants.
Anyway, it was a beautiful wedding at the Embassy Suites in Downtown Portland.
Without further ado:
