Newberg, Oregon ~ Private Vineyard Small Wedding


I probably won't be able to forget this wedding for a long while! In the picturesque vineyards of Newberg, Oregon, I captured a heartwarming celebration where a bride and groom, along with their small families, married amongst pouring rain and shifting clouds. From their loving and silly moments during a whimsical first look among the grapevines to their intimate moments amidst the wine barrels in the cellar. This wedding unfolded with undeniable charm and was oozing with character. From sexy dancing to running through the vineyards-this couple really made the most of every moment on their wedding day.


Throughout the day, the weather sang to its own tune - shifting between rain and clouds and occasional sunlight. The pouring rain during the first half of the day added a sense of intimacy and resilience to the festivities while the bride drank champagne with her family and got into her dress and the groom hung around with his guys and took some epic photos in front of the vineyard cellar doors. The temperature throughout the day was perfect, creating a comfortable and inviting ambiance for the wedding ceremony and for the remainder of the celebration. This celebration showcased the joy of small weddings, the enchantment of rainy summer weddings, and the timeless charm of love amidst the grapevines. As a PNW photographer, I felt privileged to capture these treasured moments and tell this unique love story through the lens of my camera.
