Shannon and Eric chose the lovely location of Camp Colton for their wedding celebration on the 4th of July.  The venue is surrounded by a lush forest with the calming sounds from the running stream.  It is quaint and very romantic.

Shannon rode in with her father in a horse drawn carriage.  Guests were gathered around to witness the ceremony in a very intimate setting.  The couple exchanged vows and rode off on the same horse drawn carriage.  Shannon has a passion for horses - making the whole experience such a treat to photograph.

Naturally, with it being the 4th of July, a sparkler departure was in order.  Guests waved their sparklers in excitement as the couple rode off to catch the fireworks display in downtown Portland.
