Please visit Sherrlyn's website listed above for complete gallery and information.  Sherrlyn Borkgren is an international photojournalist photographing for magazines and weddings globally and locally in the US.  Just recently the NEW A'La Carte wedding has been added. This is especially for  you who demand taste and quality but just don't have the budget to do it all. Even though  Sherrlyn is a highly trained professional she believes in you, in humanity and in kindness.

  You can count on her to be honest and forthright in all her personal and business dealings. Being a small business means she demands the highest quality from herself and all those that work with her. From the first meeting to making sure your images are online and perfectly printed in your gallery book Sherrlyn will be there with you. If you decide on a gallery book she offers fine handcrafted books made in the USA or Italy.

Are you saying your wedding vows in the warm sands of an exotic country or right here in your backyard? Whether your wedding is in dreamy Oregon or you are saying your wedding vows on a mountaintop in Tahiti or in Santorini Greece, Sayulita, Mexico? Sherrlyn tells your wedding story beautifully, romantically and with lots of love and fun. Oddly enough most all who she photographs become lifelong friends. Please see Sherrlyn’s wedding website http://www.BorkgrenPHOTO.net and if you want a "real" photojournalist you will find a link to her journalism work there.
It’s your big day and Sherrlyn’s stress free attitude grown from years of experience will help make your day wonderful. Come visit!
