Travis & Marie's Ethereal Woodland Wedding at Leach Botanical Garden | PDX & RVA Wedding Photography

 
Marie&Travisbest-36.jpg

Travis & Marie’s wedding was everything a wedding should be. Their closest family and friends walked down a beautiful mossy path through the woods to get to the ceremony site. It was quiet, peaceful and whimsical. The ceremony was heartfelt and intimate, followed by a beautifully presented multi-course dinner that I couldn’t stop photographing (and eating)! The live music and perfect weather just made it even more memorable. Travis & Marie are just exceptionally adorable and their families were so incredibly sweet and welcoming. This was the first time I photographed a wedding at Leach Botanical Garden and it was such a nice, laid back experience. I hope I get to photograph again there one day!

Congrats Marie & Travis!

PDX & RVA Wedding Photography | Molly & Paul's Wedding at House on Metolius

Oregon has so many incredible wedding locations, but House on Metolius is SERIOUSLY beautiful. This was the second wedding I’ve photographed there (check out Katie & Mark’s wedding there too!) and it was even better than I remembered. It’s quite a trek to get there from Portland and includes almost 100 miles of twists and turns through Santiam Pass. We even had to help someone get their car out of a ditch on the way home! But there’s definitely something special about getting married in the middle of nowhere, especially when your family and friends make the journey with you. It forces everyone to relax, take a vacation, enjoy the scenery and experience everything that Oregon has to offer. Now that I live in Virginia, I miss Oregon and it’s beauty but I’m lucky enough that my job allows me to travel back and forth between the two states. I’ll gladly fly back to Oregon to photograph at House on Metolius any day.

Congrats Molly & Paul! You two are the cutest! <3
