Hayley + Austin / Oregon Vineyard Engagement
Chasing the sunset at Alloro Vineyards with these two was a perfect way to spend a Summer evening. We are so looking forward to their wedding in the Columbia River Gorge later this year!

Our last engagement session of 2017 was spent exploring the forested side of Sauvie Island with Ruthie & Grant. They did a great job of keeping each other warm on this chilly day!
We recently spent a magical Fall day enjoying all the colors of Portland with Christine & Alex, from the leaves of the Hoyt Arboretum to some of the city’s newest and most striking architecture on the Eastside. Now, it’s time to settle into the grey and rain while we eagerly await their wedding this July.
Out soaking up the sun & exploring some of our favorite spots on the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge.
Last Summer we met up with Tiffany & Ryan on a perfect evening to explore Pittock Mansion and Hoyt Arboretum in the hills of Northwest Portland. We are looking forward to their rustic barn wedding this Spring, and the warmer days ahead!
Some couples meet through friends, or online, or even at a bar. Well, John & Bridie met on a boat at a sailing race. Needless to say, there wasn’t much doubt about how we should approach their engagement photos. We met up on a long Summer evening and got out and set sail on the Willamette River just outside downtown Portland for some truly unique photos. Their wedding also proved to be one of our most unique of the year, so stay tuned!
A Texan girl meets a Northeast boy and they set out for a life of adventure together in the Pacific Northwest . . . Jen and Seth spend a lot of their free time exploring the mountains, beaches and forests of their new home, so it was a natural choice to head out to the Columbia River Gorge for their engagement photos. We visited some well-known landmarks, as well as a few off-the-beaten path favorites, and it was so much fun to share this unique landscape with these new friends!
Spring delivered a fresh blanket of snow for this session with Lauren & Andrew at Mt. Bachelor. Which is awesome, because that is the one request they had for this shoot (thank-you Mother Nature)! We also explored Bend’s Shevlin Park underneath the towering pines and enjoyed an awesome afternoon in the beauty of Central Oregon.
I absolutely love it when couples are up for mixing a little adventure into their shoot! Kim & Luke had scoped out Oneonta Gorge as the location for their engagement session, which is always worth a visit. After shooting at the gorge and nearby tunnel, I suggested a nearby spot that I wanted to explore but didn’t have much experience with. These two were totally up for the adventure, and it turned out beautifully! At the end of our time at Oneonta the day turned dark & dreary, which had me a bit worried on the way to our next spot. Lucky for us, the sky parted on the horizon just before sunset and gave us some brilliant light. After this adventure, I’m super excited to document them as they embark on their next one this Summer!
