Recent Adventures at alyson levy PHOTOGRAPHY
I’m so excited that Spring is here and Engagement Sessions are back! I had a lovely afternoon among the cherry blossoms at Ft. Vancouver with Stephanie and Brady recently, and I couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out! I can’t wait to photography their wedding later this year.
I met these two at Sebastian’s grandmother’s family reunion/wedding celebration last summer, and I’m so excited to be capturing their wedding later this year! It’s always so fun to return to clients as their families grow over the years. Cascade Locks treated us to a lovely late afternoon glow and a view of the Bridge of the Gods, one of my favorite spots in the Columbia River Gorge. I can’t wait to see what it holds for their wedding this fall!
I had such a lovely time with these two up at Timberline Lodge! It feels good to be getting slightly back to normal, and it’s so much fun to spend time with some of my clients who are getting married next year! We lucked out with some beautiful weather and a lovely sunset. Engagement session win!
This tiny church is one of my favorite places in Portland for a tiny wedding. It’s super small and intimate, but the stained glass, big chandeliers, and beautiful light streaming through the big windows make it feel very stately and grand. And Sellwood Park, only a short block away, always provides beautiful opportunities for lovely photos with the happy couple. So I was delighted when Aaron and Kacie called about photography for their small autumn wedding. . .
Engagement session season is back, and I couldn’t be more excited! It was so lovely to meet Jeremy and Savanna and to get to take some photos of them at one of my absolute favorite waterfalls in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge just as the leaves were beginning to change. We lucked out with some gorgeous fall weather, and I got to see how adorable theses two are with each other. . .
I’m delighted to share another beautiful, tiny Portland wedding - this time on the Redwood Observation Deck in Forest Park. 2021 has been a great year for lovers of very intimate weddings - I love ceremonies that include all of the wedding guests and just feel really personal and special. And despite its size, this tiny wedding felt really grand, with a setting of giant Redwoods, all the separate pieces of a traditional Jewish ceremony, and music by a three-piece klezmer band! It was such a privilege to be a part of it.
Ryan and Jordan’s beautiful Langdon Farms wedding was a long time coming, but so worth the wait! It was so lovely to return to shooting big weddings after a looong hiatus, and I definitely wasn’t the only one excited to be back. It was so great to see these two families come together and celebrate after delays and rescheduling.
Man, did I miss spending time with people on their wedding days! Emily and Fred came to Portland to get married a few weeks ago with their closest friends in attendance. After a few false starts (damn you, Portland bridges!), we got together on the waterfront to take some pictures beforehand, and then headed to the Nines for their small ceremony with the lovely Rev. Cathy Hume. . .
