If you are considering using Aaronstadt for your wedding photography we really appreciate that! We have been telling wedding day stories, with images, for many years and could not think of a better way to spend an afternoon, evening, weekend or whatever it takes to make those memories come alive again and again for you.

For more images of Clara Mae and Mark's wedding, CLICK HERE

Clara Mae and Mark were married on June 26th 2016 at the Ainsworth Hose and Gardens in Oregon City. Our favorite venue was blessed with nice warm weather, specular blooms, love and joy, family and friends and a great party,  AND out Favorite DJ! Everything came together to create a wonderful celebration.

Clara Mae and Mark were married in the afternoon under the Giant Ponderosa Pine on the property. Those that have been around a while suggest the age and wisdom represented by this gentle giant have an influence on the marriages performed beneath it. Nice to think about isn't it? and it really is a majestic creature of nature

We created some wonderful images with Clara Mae and Mark in and around the gardens. 

The ceremony was officiated by Pastor Mark Reams who was Mark's(the Groom) youth pastor years ago and came all the way from Florida for the event.

The party was directed by Kris Kropotich who happens to be our favorite DJ extraordinaire, he KNOWS how to run a reception. We had lots of fun and lots of photo ops.

Thanks guys! it was a fun day.

Once upon a time there was a beautiful bride and a handsome groom. They also had a little princess with gorgeous red hair full of curls and big blue eyes. They are quite a happy little family. On Saturday, June 25th they were all married under a giant ponderosa pine tree. It is the giantest in the land, some, I've heard them, say it has magic qualitities. For if you get married under the giant pine you can hear it whisper, "You'll stay with me till the very end."

It was a  wonderful celebration! It all happened at the Ainsworth House and Gardens in Oregon City.
The day started EARLY before the  hot weather came  upon us, which was pleasant. We had time to wander the wonder and whimsey that is the Ainsworth Gardens.

The ceremony was performed by our favorite Officiant, The Rev. Kevin Yell, who also co-owns the venue. Then we adjourned to the party.

Bagels with cream cheese, pastries and sweets were on the menu for the day. Nice to get a sugar rush just as things are winding up to party level! The DJ was Trevor, with Dancin' Tunes. He had some good moves and taught them to those who appeared shy or just dance-move impaired.

All-in-all a great way to start the day, thanks guys for letting us shoot your wedding.
