Annie Wright School Wedding

Annie Wright School in Tacoma in a stunning (and I mean stunning) wedding venue. Unexpected, dripping with old-world romance, charming, grand-- it's got all the makings for a perfect host for your wedding soiree. As a Portland wedding photographer, I love traveling to Tacoma to shoot weddings just outside of my hometown. Annie Wright School weddings can be indoors or outdoors in their on-site wedding chapel or the magnificent brick courtyard adjacent. The Annie Wright school property is also a beautiful backdrop for wedding photography, bridal portraits and golden hour photos. I mean, who wouldn't want to have portraits against all that Downtown Abby-esque beauty? 

  On a recent trip to Tacoma for a wedding, I shot 5 or 6 rolls of medium format film. Of course, these fine art images are by far my favorite of all the wedding photos captured that day. I really just need to shoot all film (except for the expense- eek!) 

  Enjoy these fashion inspired Annie Wright School wedding photos!

Castaway Portland Wedding: Jenny + Joe

Castaway Portland is one of my favorite venues because natural light just floods every room. I'll always have a soft spot for industrial spaces, and beautiful light is the key to amazing photography. Sometimes we "create" it using off-camera flashes, but most of the time we hunt for that window light that brings it's own creative freedom. 

Jenny and Jo met randomly in line at school and apparently it was love at first sight.  To be their photographer was like getting a front row seat for their love story as friends and family celebrated this long anticipated event. A very special part of their story is the miracle baby that Jenny and Jo were unexpectedly blessed to receive. Baby boy Herbst is coming in May :D They kept the gender a secret till their reception slideshow with their special announcement ;)
