Genna & Josh Wedding in Minnesota

Jason and I had the opportunity to travel to film and take photos for Genna & Josh in Minnesota. We had the best time with them and their families. We conquer the most humid and hot weather ever and had tons of fun doing it. Enjoy 🙂

Zulaikha + Anwar

One of my favorite projects to work on are weddings. Lately, Jason & I have been able to work with several Somali couples. Two weeks ago we photographed and made a video for Zulaikha + Anwar. They had their main venue at the Ramada Hotel in Portland, Oregon. The decoration was so elegant. We loved it!

Somalian Weddings are not like your regular expected weddings. First of all they have an all women’s night. Usually there are not men there. Here is when the celebrate the bride to be. It is usually the night before the big wedding party. Their celebrations are during the night from 9pm-2am. They are full of dancing and joy.

The second night is when they celebrate the marriage. The bride has several outfit changes and for half of the reception it is just the women. On her last outfit change the groom comes to the reception with her and so do the the rest of the men invited. They are full of culture, dances, and love. We love working with the Somali people. They are beautiful!!

Safiya + Hamza

Safiya + Hamza were the cutest couple to photograph. They had a gorgeous Somali wedding here in Portland, OR. Love doing their Bridal photos! Somali Weddings last two days. So before the women’s night started we took a little trip to the outside of the hotel Venue and found some beautiful cherry blossom trees. Enjoy 🙂
