Liz + Gerardo

0 Comments/ in engagement / by Ryan

It was really fun to discover this area around Cape Horn in the Columbia River Gorge with Liz & Gerardo on such a stunning day! They were so enthusiastic about exploring this unique location, despite it being near freezing and more than a little windy. Such are the sacrifices we make for a beautiful mid-winter day in the Pacific Northwest!

Kasey + Jeff / Columbia Gorge Wedding

0 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Photographing Kasey & Jeff amidst the beauty of this stark Oregon desert landscape was worth battling the over-100-degree heat! Their wedding took place on Kasey’s parent’s ranch near Rufus, Oregon.

Kate + Steffen / Bridal Veil Lakes Wedding

0 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Kate & Steffen’s wedding re-affirmed my belief that trust is one of the most important elements in wedding photography. Although we met face-to-face for the first time just days before their wedding, we immediately connected and I could feel how excited they were for the images we were about to create together. They reiterated that they had spent a lot of time searching for the right photographer and were so excited to be working with me.  After that meeting, I knew that I had their complete trust.

I am not writing this to sound like an arrogant, over-inflated egotist.  In fact, it’s quite the opposite.  I’m extremely humbled when a couple chooses to work with us out of all of the talented photographers in our area, and am honored each and every time we get to document this single day that they will remember for the rest of their lives. The fact that someone is entrusting us with such an important moment is a big deal, and being able to feel that trust is so important to creating meaningful, genuine images.  So, Kate & Steffen, thank you for that trust.

Meaghan + Dianne / Gorge Crest Wedding

3 Comments/ in gorge crest weddings, weddings / by Ryan

Meahan & Dianne had a late-Summer wedding overlooking the Columbia River Gorge.  Although clouds & forest fires hid Mt. Hood for part of the day, the view from Gorge Crest Farms was still stunning. We really enjoyed getting to know these two lovely ladies & seeing all the heart & soul they put into planning this day. It was particularly wonderful to see their families come together to celebrate their relationship. Everyone got a long so well and genuinely enjoyed each other so much that it was hard at times to tell which side of the family they belonged to, which is what a wedding is really all about!

Brandon and Stephanie’s Mt. Hood Organic Farms Wedding

0 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Yes, Brandon & Stephanie chose a stunning venue for their wedding (Mt. Hood Organic Farms is one of our favorites); yes, nearly every detail was lovingly thought out and designed by the couple; and yes, the food was amazing (more on that later). Despite these things, the most memorable part of this wedding was the pure joy that emanated from this couple the entire day–infusing every inch of their ceremony and celebration with a palpable enthusiasm. We see grooms shed a tear or two now and then, but it was really touching to see the tears welling up in Brandon’s eyes while he was hanging out with his groomsmen, well before the ceremony and seeing his bride.

Back to the food. Mt. Hood Organic Farms prides itself on preparing delicious fresh, local foods yet this wedding took that locavore concept one step further. The bride and groom grew nearly all the fruits & vegetables on the menu on their small farm outside Portland. We had the opportunity to meet them there for a photo session earlier in the Summer, and it was awesome to see all their hard work savored by their close friends and family. I could go on about how much we enjoyed shooting this wedding, but will let the photos tell the rest of the story . . .

Heather + Ryan / Bridal Veil Lakes Wedding

0 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Heather & Ryan’s wedding took place at one of our favorite outdoor venues in Oregon (which is saying a lot, given the number of outstanding options for outdoor weddings around here!) Bridal Veil Lakes is a rustic spot tucked away in the forest of the Columbia River Gorge, yet is it just minutes from downtown Portland. It’s a great place to showcase the natural beauty of our area to out-of-state friends and family, yet still be close to the city. Beauty was in full abundance for Ryan & Heather as forest fires nearby (but not too nearby!) created a fine haze in the sky & gorgeous light all day! We even had the chance to head over to Crown Point before the ceremony for photos with the bride & groom, and a great view of the Gorge.

Jenny + Steve / Mt. Hood Bed and Breakfast Wedding

42 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Jenny & Steve were married at one of our favorite Mt. Hood area venues, Mt. Hood Bed & Breakfast.  Fabulous food, lawn games, and a margarita big enough to serve the entire wedding party made for an awesome day. Plus, their make-your-own-trail-mix bar may be the best reason ever to have a wedding near the mountains!

This past Fall, we met up with Heather & Ryan for an afternoon of photos in and around Stevenson, WA, in the Columbia River Gorge.  The beauty of the Gorge was on full display with gorgeous light, fall colors, a full moon rising, and lots of wind!  Heather scouted many of these locations and did an amazing job–we discovered a few new spots we will definitely be heading back to!

Margi + Scott / Mt. Hood Organic Farms Wedding

0 Comments/ in weddings / by Ryan

Friends & family from around the country convened in the Columbia River Gorge to celebrate the marriage of Scott & Margi!  Their wedding and celebration took place at Mt. Hood Organic Farms, a beautiful venue in the heart of one of our favorite locations in the state–the upper Hood River Valley!

Many of the details from their day highlight the very best of Oregon and say a lot about this couple’s commitment to environmental sustainability in both their personal and professional lives. There were many local & regional touches planned into the day that we are excited to share! The delicious locavore dinner included loads of summer goodness from small farms in the area, and many of the flowers were harvested from the venue itself.  Scott even brewed up 4 different batches of beer for the occasion! For favors, the couple picked three of their favorite environmental charities and supplied rustic wood tokens to represent donations made in their guests’ honor. To top it all off, they had one of the most original and awesome “guestbooks” we have ever seen! Have you ever signed a pair of antique skis at a wedding!?

We were so honored to be able to capture this special wedding, and we hope you enjoy the images as much as we loved making them!

Nicole + Marcus | E-session

0 Comments/ in engagement / by Ryan

We are excited to photograph Nicole and Marcus’ wedding this weekend. They are such an easygoing couple and a lot of fun to work with. We met up with them earlier this month for their engagement session in the Columbia River Gorge, and despite passing rain-squalls a great time was had by all. Thank you, Marcus and Nicole for being so relaxed despite the crazy Oregon spring weather!
