Kas & Kathryn's Art Deco Hotel DeLuxe Wedding

I have so many great memories of Kas & Kathryn's wedding day. First of all, it was beautiful. They put together an outstanding party, left no detail untouched and had amazing taste in their decor, colors, flowers, and formal wear. The location, The Hotel DeLuxe can't be beat! We shot their engagement session at the same location back in (brrr) January. I love the rooms for preparation and the beautiful architecture of the Screening and Editing Rooms where we shot our photos. To top off the details, Kas and Kathryn have an AMAZING group of friends. They were so welcoming to my assistant and I, offering to help us, brought us water, providing us with chairs... so very sweet! I had an awesome time and was so honored to have witnessed such a warm, loving, and truly amazing couple come together and pledge to spend the rest of their lives together. The room was so alive with love as their friends and family told fun stories during the toasting portion of the reception and recounted how they all "just KNEW!" that Kas and Kathryn were the ones for each other from the start of their relationship. They're one of those couples who it's obvious the moment you meet them that they are a perfect match. Congrats Kas and Kathryn! Enjoy your sneak peek and a lifetime of happiness!

Beth & Drew 3.30.12 In Downtown Portland

I'm a little a lot behind in my blogging, mostly because I've been too busy taking photos which is always a good thing! Nevertheless, this gorgeous wedding deserves some face time. Back in November, I captured Beth and Drew's engagement session at Cathedral Park in North Portland and from then on I knew that their wedding photos would be amazing. These two have such great chemistry and camera presence!
Their wedding was at the West End Theater in Portland, with preparations and first reveal at the Hotel DeLuxe nearby. We cruised around downtown Portland on their sprinkly March day ending up in a park near an old school with lots of blooming cherry trees and later found ourselves in the Governor Hotel before heading back to the West End for the ceremony.
