I was also excited about shooting this event because it was a completely vintage wedding at the Aero Space Museum of Calgary. I wasn’t disappointed… the vintage-styling looked amazing against a backdrop of old antique airplanes! The morning of the wedding day I hung out with the bride and groom while they were getting ready. Courtney was completely decked out…
Even though we’re based in Portland, Oregon, we love to photograph destination weddings around the country. Having the opportunity to do Anastasia and Rick’s wedding photography in Muir Woods, California, was a real treat! Anastasia is a designer for Free People. Her and Rick’s wedding was filled with a laid back, hippie-chick vibe; married on the beach with the forest…
Lauren and Rob’s wedding at the Resort at the Mountain was a real delight to photograph–in spite of the rain! They make the kind of couple that you enjoy watching, because it’s obvious how much they like each other. They’re constantly smiling at each other, making goofy faces, or nuzzling nozes. It’s adorable. Look for it in the following photographs….…
I love it when my brides become friends; such was the case with Jennifer. Through capturing her engagement and wedding photos our hearts knit together and we both did a happy dance when her wedding was selected for publication in A Paper Proposal. Michael and Jen were wed in the heart of Medford Oregon, on an idyllic lake surrounded by…
Kendal and Eric’s vintage wedding was held at Camp Colton, an 85-acre retreat at the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Their ceremony took place in a gorgeous historic chapel constructed with dark wood walls and pews, and the bridal party dance the night away at the old lodge just down the gravel road. Eric had a slicked-to-the side debonair hairdo…
Cindy and Aron’s beautiful wedding held at Youngberg Hill Vineyard and Inn was a beautiful, sunny day. And what better place to photograph than in Yamhill County’s wine country? The award winning French bistro Bistro Maison, located in McMinnville, Oregon, was the perfect location for their intimate reception with close friends and family. Congratulations, Cindy and Aron! At Fritz Photography,…
Kim has been dreaming about this picture, above, for a long time. She kept asking me if I could make it happen at The Nines Hotel, where she was getting ready for her wedding. While M’chel Bauxal was working on Kim’s makeup, we took the dress out and created some lovely portraits of it. And it was lovely–probably one of…
I’ll give you fair warning from the outset: this will probably devolve into a blog post about cute children. So consider yourself warned. Several years ago, I photographed Alex Freeman’s senior portraits, and a few years after that, I photographed his brother Dan’s senior portraits. I have to admit, it made me feel old to have Alex and Dan’s dad…
Lana and Brian’s wedding tops the list for the most unique wedding I’ve ever photographed. Held on the first day of Spring, the wedding was set at the rustic McMenamin’s Cornelius Pass Roadhouse, which was an ideal location for a vintage-styled wedding. Its old round barn, historic outbuildings, unprimed wood, and small forest were the perfect setting for creating some…
The current issue of Oregon Bride Magazine features several of our wedding photographs. One of them is featured in the Best Wedding Photos of the Year section, and this is the story behind the photograph: Dayn and Mandi are a very creative, fun-loving couple. They held their wedding in a county park outside of Portland, and it was one of…

Chris and Jessica have a love that is so comfortable and sweet that just sitting near them makes you feel better. I first met and got to know them during their engagement session. We spent time sipping and munching at Henry’s tavern downtown and then took a hike up to the woods of Forest Park. With their love of nature,…
