Tricia & Brent – Oregon Golf Club Wedding – Portland Wedding Photography

Recently I photographed Tricia & Brent’s wedding at one of my favorite venues, the Oregon Golf Club. We had beautiful warm weather, a wedding filled with family & friends, lots of bridesmaids and groomsmen and some funky dancing late in the evening. Special thanks to my awesome second photographer for the day, Maricar of Maricar Liane Photography. And since Tricia & Brent are fellow teachers (at a school that was a huge high school rival to my alma mater) I wish them both congratulations and a great school year!

Jenny & Mike – Gerding Theater At The Armory Wedding – Portland Wedding Photography

A few weeks ago I photographed Jenny & Mike’s wedding at the Gerding Theater at the Armory in Downtown Portland. I love working at the Gerding, its such an amazing building with spectacular architecture. Plus the Bride can get ready in the dressing rooms backstage which is a very cool ‘getting ready’ room. Before the wedding we hopped over to Tanner Springs Park in the Pearl District for photos of the Bride and Groom. The ceremony took place on the stairs in the theater which made for a very striking background. Jenny and Mike also had one of my favorite wedding traditions, a Hora or chair dance…the facial expressions of the bride and groom are always priceless! Congrats to Jenny and Mike! It was an honor to spend your wedding day with you.

Kennedy & Benjamin – Siam Society Wedding – Portland

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing Kennedy & Benjamin’s wedding at Siam Society…a swanky Thai restaurant on NE Alberta.  I was ecstatic when I booked their wedding since I live about 10 blocks away from Siam Society.  The restaurant is in a very cool, historic building that used to be a power substation…lots of high ceilings and weathered concrete.  Kennedy & Benjamin’s wedding had a very warm feel with friends and family helping with decorations, invitations, the ceremony and even the dress.  We captured some amazing images. I really enjoyed working with Kennedy & Benjamin.  Congrats!!!

Polaroids!!! – shot with my favorite Chocolate Film

August 15, 2010 - 7:10 pm Janet Smith - Sean is a fantastic photographer and he has mastered the art of being invisible while recording our happy event. I would gladly recommend him to anyone who needs a top rate photographer. Thank you, Sean!

Ashley & Scot – Portland Engagement Photography

Last week I met Ashley and Scot for their engagement session in Portland. We started At the Oak’s Bottom Refuge in SE Portland for some great evening light and grass fields. I even captured a rather cool sequence of photos of Ashley jumping into Scot’s arms…special surprise below. After Oak’s Bottom we headed into the Pearl District in NW Portland. Ashley and Scot were great to work with and I’m really looking forward to photographing their wedding at the Oregon Golf Club later in the year.

First, some polaroids. These were taken with my new favorite polaroid film, named ‘chocolate’. It has an amazing vintage look to it that I love.

The jump sequence!

and a little special animation

August 20, 2010 - 12:00 pm Bill B - The photographer must have had an easy time working with such great subjects. Although one came out gorgeous and the other...well, never mind. When you look back on these photos in 50 years, may you both still be as happy and in love. Hopefully, with each other. :-)

Boram & David – Gray Gables Wedding in Portland

A few weeks ago I had the honor of photographing Boram & David’s wedding at Gray Gables in Portland. It just so happens that Gray Gables is the same venue where my wife and I were married four years ago! It was a beautiful wedding filled with family & friends…and an entire table full of candy for the guests. During the reception Boram, David and I snuck out to take some very cool photos at night around the grounds. Lindsay from JL Chirst Studios came along and 2nd shot for me and did a fabulous job.
