John and Gary’s Holocene wedding in Portland was our 2nd wedding of the season this year and instantly we knew that the bar had been set. This was truly an amazing wedding between two of the most loving, honest and hardworking people we have ever met. John works in Obstetrics at the prestigious OHSU hospital here in Portland while Gary is a middle school math teacher. Their wedding was a lovely, barn chic inspired, brunch affair, complete with mimosas, biscuits and gravy and of course, the classic chicken and waffles.
But before we all entered food comas and hilarious mimosa inspired dancing, we first witnessed John and Gary exchange vows in one of Portland’s beloved nightclubs, Holocene. Their wedding was nothing short of a good old fashioned tear jerker, with guests, family and the couple choking back tears of joy as these two expressed their immense love for one another.
It was the kind of ceremony and celebration that leaves you feeling inspired and joyful. Every wedding we photograph is an honor. With this wedding, we not only felt honored but incredibly grateful that John and Gary chose us to be their photographers. Thanks you two.
Stunning! So full of love, emotion, joy!
Amazing. As always. Love this so so so much.
Great photos of a wonderful day. Congratulations again to you both!
So happy to see these! What beautiful reminders of a memorable and amazing celebration!
Such perfect photos that truly reflect a perfect day. I am so grateful to have these images which take me right back to the moment, thanks to your ability to capture the essence of the occasion. I have struggled to find the words to adequately explain the true joy of this day to others. I think these photographs will allow others to see what I couldn’t say with words. Thank you so much.
Great pictures! It was like being there again. It was such a beautiful wedding.
