5th Place | Wedding Photojournalist Association

“Here’s an image of near perfection as a musician plays “outfield” to an “infield” backdrop of the bride and groom at their wedding reception. Nonetheless, our “center field” musician fields the play with an upward gesture that wins the game for this photo. With symmetry and style this is a silhouette that needs no introduction.”

Ryan & Rebecca | Estate Wedding Featured in Style Me Pretty
portland wedding photographers
“Ooh, la la. I don’t say that often, but today, with this gorgeous Oregon wedding on my plate, definitely calls for a Ohh la la. The stunning bride and her Prince Charming decided on a vintage garden theme for their special day – and with that, she added a touch of whimsy, a little DIY, and just the perfect amount of fun. The result? A fanciful wedding filled to the brim with amazing little details, from streamers, to vintage milk bottles, to some pretty amazing patterns. The whole affair was captured by the talent that is Daniel Stark Photography.”

“Rocking an aqua Balenciaga cocktail dress, Paige looked Portland-chic on her wedding day. The two lovebirds wed at Mt. Tabor park: right in the center of their neighborhood, and where they spent lots of time together. Community oriented, Paige and Gregg were married by a childhood friend — Gregg’s buddy since fourth grade. To Paige, that’s what the day was all about. The ones who loved them most.”
