Richard + Betty | Zenith Vineyard wedding

Richard and Betty are the same delightful couple whose Saguaro Desert engagement photos I got to photograph this year. It was such an honor meeting and spending time with their families--they were super warm and inviting, not just to me but to everyone who was there on the wedding day. It was a smaller, intimate wedding back at Zenith Vineyards, and they even gave me a seat with a place card and everything along with the guests. I love it when couples include me in the festivities, because then I’m that much more integrated to get closer to their friends and family and get more moments of the day.

At a wedding, I live to photograph what matters most, not just for the day, but for the generations to come. Photographing what the wedding looked like is part of it, of course, but who was there, their relationships and love for each other, is way more important to me.

Peter Mahar

I'm Peter Mahar, a professional wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I grew up the youngest in crazy family of six--which was great, because I got to make my brothers and sisters laugh, and not-so-great, because I had to sit in the back of the van on the seat with the stupid bump in the cushion. I make pizza and talk a lot. I'm part Italian, so I use a lot of gestures (especially during photo shoots). I love deep conversations, a good fire, and a glass of wine. But most of all, I love Jesus!
