Sarah & Dallas...
My good friends Sarah & Dallas got married last weekend out at the Grand Lodge in Forest Grove and I got to shoot the day! Very well-planned and choreographed, the day went smoothly and their song list was incredible. They are both fabulous dancers and when they hit the floor for their first song, Leonard Cohen's "Dance Me To The End of Love" it was an emotional high and there wasn't a dry eye in the house! All the best, you two!
I am a commercial photographer based in Portland, Oregon, USA. Originally from NJ, educated in AZ, PA, & NY, I moved to Oregon in 1996, shooting primarily advertising, editorial and lifestyle; weddings, portraits, products, locations , seniors, sports, reunions and special events, capturing moments and telling visual stories.
Partial client list includes: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Caldwell College, CBS Records, Coates & Clark, Danskin, EC Company, Exxon, Johnson & Johnson, The Lawrenceville School, Lionel Trains LLC, Manos del Uruguay, Manufacturers Hanover, McCarter Theatre, McNeil Pharmaceuticals, Mid-Atlantic Country Magazine, New Jersey Outdoors Magazine, Nike, Northwest Sports Photography, Paragon Tile & Stone, Platt Electric, Premiere Homes Magazine, Pfizer, Sierra Club, Sprint, Tower Records, Weldotron.
Often I'm asked to be a guest speaker for art associations, communication/business groups and I always enjoy speaking to student groups as well. When not photographing in the studio or on location, I have fun with my wife and daughter, family and friends, camping, traveling, rafting, cross-country & downhill skiing, and photographing nature & motorsports!

Must have been a lovely wedding. For some reason they always make me soppy :) I also love the second image, very cool indeed.
Love the action shot. Just went to a wedding and know that this would be a great compliment to so many of the posed/feature shots.
