I love these two! I’ll admit it – I’m a sucker for PDA-filled shoots, and these two are just so clearly smitten with each other. Weirdly, I met Emily *years* ago when I was still in college, up in Portland visiting my sister. Emily was friends with my sister, and we all went to see the Sea and Cake in concert. Years later, after multiple moves across the country on both of our ends, she finds me while planning her wedding without realizing that she knew my sister. Small world time, folks.

The rains again held off and it was a beautiful afternoon for Mandy and Brad’s wedding. The day was full of sweet, meaningful moments – from Mandy’s father officiating the ceremony at their church in Portland, to hearing details of how Nebraska-raised Brad fell for good country girl Mandy. A pilot, Brad has a great love for old airplanes, so the Pearson Air Museum in Ft. Vancouver, the oldest operating air field in the U.S., was a perfect choice for their reception.
One of my favorite bridal portraits…
Brad’s Dad was convinced to showcase some accordion stylings!
I’m continually drawn to children at weddings…they have a beautiful sense of awe and wonder for the bride and the groom. The kids at this event definitely thought Mandy looked like a princess.
The look on this little boy’s face just kills me…how adorable!
That’s an airplane engine!

There was a lot of hand-wringing and sky-watching the morning of Colleen and Tim’s wedding, as we were just getting into the late May/”June-uary” weather spell that’s left most of the Pacific Northwest wondering what we did to be punished with all this rain. Both of them very much wanted to hold their ceremony in the beautiful outside gardens of the Abernethy Center, instead of inside in one of the ballrooms. At some point, everyone just had to trust that it would hold off, and what a payoff! We even had 10 minutes of lovely sun during the ceremony; just a perfect touch. After a sweet, touching ceremony (goodness, I was even tearing up!), everyone headed inside to celebrate and share the love, even as the rain started pouring down shortly after.
