MoscaStudio LLC : Professional Photographers. Portland Oregon and Destinations Worldwide.

This is one of our favorite places to photograph a wedding, hands down. There is everything imaginable for a whimsical, barn, outdoor, panorama, country-chic, elegant wedding day. There are even beautiful horses and sometimes, herds of elk! It's a historic homestead, curated by a wonderful family.  Mt Hood Bed & Breakfast  is am amazing place. Are you about to decide on your own wedding venue? If you need images from Mt Hood Bed & Breakfast, let us know. We'd love to show them to you and to possibly chat about being YOUR wedding photographers! Here are a few samples from a beautiful wedding Alice photographed this past summer 2013 on behalf of another photographer who asked for her to take over due to an unfortunate illness. We have a wonderful network of vendors, ready to help each other out, which is something to be proud about :) Thanks for looking!

Those clients whom have already gone through our services at least once (the engagement session, if not both engagement AND wedding) will probably recognize our little "Aaaaand KISS!" phrase ;) It's funny but it works! You walk away from us, or towards us as it may be, you may be sitting on a bench someplace, or even leaning against a wall... we'll get you to kiss with this little phrase... and we will capture it! ;) Just for fun, and because 'tis the season for mistletoe and kissing under it... here is a fun collection of many of our beautiful couples, kissing! Some are in fields of flowers or groves of trees, some are at their wedding, while some are in city parks. ALL are in love and embracing of one another. Ours has to be one of the most happy and personally rewarding job in the world! Some are posted here as a preview, while all 92 of them are in the slide show below ;) Roam through and hopefully this helps put a little bit of a smile on your faces ...

Every year, at the end of the wedding season, we gather all of the images of the bridal bouquets used by our wedding couples, and organize them into one big blog post. This year (better late than never!) is no exception. It's fun to see trends come and go as each season passes, but it's also interesting to see which colors and styles seem to be more timeless, remaining popular throughout the seasons. Below is this 2013 wedding season's flowers. Thank you SO much, as always, to all of the amazing florists in Portland! Every one of them is incredibly talented and possesses a unique style. I would have SUCH a hard time choosing a florist for myself! :) If you are curious about our 2012 wedding season wedding flower recap, here is the link to that blog post .  As usual, here are links to our favorite wedding florists in the Portland Oregon, Columbia Gorge areas. They are the ones we've worked with this year. There is something special about each of them! ...

Meet Jen and Alex, everyone! I have known Jen for YEARS (since 2000), when we were both working as archaeologists in Phoenix Arizona. Some of our past colleagues were at their wedding too, so it was a sort of awesome reunion for us!  AAAAHHHH how I love California weddings, especially among old friends! They married at University of California's Botanical Gardens and it was glorious. The ceremony was in an amphitheater among the majestic Redwoods on a perfectly warm and sunny October California day. The reception was at the hall within the botanical gardens, which was beautiful too! To get to it, everyone had to walk through the Redwood grove and then the gardens themselves... So beautiful! Jen and Alex are two peas in a pod. They met while excavating in Egypt and have been inseparable and in love ever since. I could not possibly be more happy and excited for the two of them and their life together. It has been a few years since I had seen Jen and it was an honor to s...

Danielle and Jeff are going to marry at the beautiful Red Ridge Farms in Dundee, Oregon , next summer. It's in Oregon's wine country and it will be beautiful! We had a blast getting to know them and photographing them on this beautifully sunny and crisp fall day in Portland this year. They live in Los Angeles but came north, to Portland, to meet with some vendors and to have the opportunity to get their engagement session done.... SO glad they came up when they did: the weather was perfect and we had a blast! We can't forget to mention pretty little Bella... She's the little doggie in some of the photos below. #aww ;)

Meet Sharon & Matt! They are two fun and funny and loving lovebirds - that's right! loving lovebirds! - who's wedding was not made any less awesome and meaningful, despite the crazy weather. This was the weekend during which the remnant of a huge typhoon was making it's way over the Pacific Northwest. Winds were whipping heavy rains sideways and big billowing clouds were covering everything, including the usually exposed and impressive Mt Hood. Sharon and Matt live in Seattle. They decided to have somewhat of a destination wedding at the base of Mt Hood. The weather did not cooperate that weekend. HOWEVER, everyone had a blast anyway! The two of them laughed their way thorough the part and at the end of the day... were MARRIED! We had a blast. It was like being around old friends. We're seriously so excited to know these two and are equally as exited to have this very detailed sneak peek of their day. Such a fun day! Thank you so much to all who helped make thei...
