Liz & Laurence – Exchange Ballroom
Liz and Laurence live in Hartford, Connecticut so planning their destination wedding in Portland Oregon relied on many experienced vendors from Portland. One of the most important vendors for them was finding The Exchange Ballroom and Cascade Rooftop atop the Eastside Exchange Building. It was perfect for the size and dynamic of their wedding, especially with Portland’s best catering and events company, Vibrant Table Catering & Events, who provided them with exceptional design, production,...
Francis & Greg – Portland
Francis and Greg know how to play and are willing to dive into any situation and make it their own. This chemistry to "invent" within their relationship is absolutely genius and beautiful. It really doesn't matter where they are, they just make magic happen. When we stepped near this fountain in Fernhill Park and the water spontaneously turned on spraying all of us, they just dove into it. And this was the beginning of their "engagement photo shoot" which means they were drenched with water...
Ava & Michael – Youngberg Hill
When we heard Ava and Michael recently hiked 14 miles at the grand canyon,18 miles down the Zion Narrows, visited SE Asia, Portugal/Spain, and love to create new experiences and learn about different cultures, we knew we were in for a real adventure. Our experience with them began with a lifestyle engagement photo session in their hometown, Chicago. It was then we learned about how much they listen, communicate and trust each other and their deep love for family and friends. We immediately...
Ava & Michael – Chicago
Exploring a date with Ava and Michael while adventuring along the Chicago River Walk. A beautiful June day together enjoying the magnificent backdrop of the historical cityscape of Chicago. The river walk offers wonderful architecture to explore with photography. Under bridges, greenways, and endless restaurants. This was the perfect evening for these two as we connected with them about their upcoming wedding at Youngberg Hill. Photographers: Jos & Tree | Location: Chicago River Walk...
Caroline & Will – Cafe Brauer – Chicago
Full story coming soon. About 180 guests. Ceremony, cocktails, and reception all at same location - Cafe Brauer at the Lincoln Park Zoo. Ceremony and reception/dancing was in the Great Hall, and cocktail hour was outdoors on a covered loggia while they flipped the room for dinner. Decor was simple and minimal - instead of flowers lots of greenery and candles on the tables and above the dancefloor. Photographers: Jos & Tree | Shooting Assistant: Farhad Khan Planning Coordinator: Tigerlily...
Chris & Kirstin – Ubud, Bali
It's not every day you have the opportunity to walk through sacred grounds in Bali and celebrate your engagement. Energetically this is about as unique and meaningful as it gets. We met Chris and Kirstin at our beloved TWO MANN Alumni Reunion retreat and immediately fell in love with their love. After 5 days of connecting with 25 other photographers for what we called "summer camp" we extended one more day to celebrate Chris and Kirstin's engagement by walking through some sacred grounds just...
TWO MANN Alumni Reunion – Bali
Quality time with friends is an extraordinary gift. We joined 25 photographers from all over the world in March 2019 for a wedding photographers “summer camp” in Bali, Indonesia. Our mission was to find joy, connect, and re-imagine life. Here in this photo Jesh de Rox is welcoming Erika & Lanny Mann (with TWO MANN STUDIOS) to connect using his brilliant Superfeel invitations. Real moments are always available, we just sometimes need to be reminded how to see them and “be” in them. When...
Robyn & Trevor – Timberline – Silcox Hut
Robyn and Trevor are as unique as they come. Robyn is a firefighter, teaches aerial ski jumping, loves snowboarding, camping, wine tasting, traveling Thailand, Mexico, mountains and building forts! Trying to describe Trevor is almost impossible, let's just put it this way he led Robyn on a wild goose chase on his motorbike and pretended something was wrong with the bike. He stopped the bike, had her try to solve the problem with studying the bike engine, big distraction, then as she turned...
Karina & Christopher – Columbia Gorge
Karina and Christopher chose one of the most beautiful locations in the northwest for their destination wedding: The Columbia Gorge Hotel & Spa. Its architecture has an old Hollywood feeling and beautifully transports guests back in time. This historic hotel is seated in the center of the Columbia Gorge National Scenic Area. Karina and Christopher fell in love with the views over Hood River and surrounding areas filled with sublime cliffs, waterfalls and epic vistas of the vast Columbia...
Karina & Christopher – Gorge
Inviting Karina and Christopher on an "adventure engagement date" in the Columbia Gorge was the perfect way to begin our journey. We wandered along gorgeous waterfalls and cliffs and strolled along the wide-open Columbia Gorge sandy banks. Luck was on our side with one of those last epic Indian summer autumn days. A gorgeous red-pink sunset filled the sky as they walked solo into vast openness. Absolutely stunning. This adventure was the perfect way to get to know them before photographing...
