Portland Temple

This is our favorite wedding picture. It was taken towards the end of the day, and it is hard to believe that it rained for most of the day with the brilliant blue sky in the background. This shot hangs proudly in our living room.

Wedding Rings

This is one of my favorite images from our wedding day. It is funny to think that I actually bought Jon's ring before he bought mine. I guess I was absolutely sure that he was the one for me. I loved my wedding bouquet too.

Wedding Lift



This is my strong husband carrying me and my heavy wedding dress because my feet hurt so bad. He is so cute!

The Groom



Look at that sexy man! Jon looked so good in his tux. He picked it out. His favorite part of his tux was the tie with the big knot. I was a little skeptical when he picked it out, but after seeing it on him, I was sold. His vest picked up a hint of lavender which was one of our wedding colors. I don't think it'd be possible to find a better looking groom!

The Bride



This is actually a picture of me on our wedding day squatting down because my feet hurt. I work a pair of white high heel prom shoes that I wore my Junior year of high school to our school prom. I looked cute, but boy did they hurt. I loved my wedding bouquet too. It was absolutely perfect.

Portland Rose Gardens


We began out special day by taking photos in a very special location. This shot was taken by my photographer Kelly Chandler at the Portland Rose Gardens. The Rose Gardens have special memories for me because I remember visiting them as a little girl with Grandma and Grandpa Radimak. I felt that it was a very fitting location because they could not be here with us. It is hard to believe that the morning started out with a down pour of rain. The rain ended just as we pulled up to the gardens. Although it made most of the grounds a muddy soup, the glistening water drops on the roses and greenery were beautiful.
