The Roelke and Coddington families all met up at the beautiful Kruger’s farm on Sauvies Island for their family photos! Rachel is a hilarious and wonderful woman, friend, mama and incredible wedding and conference coordinator and I was honored to document her rad family. The grandparents and aunt and uncle joined in the fun while we hung around the farm too! While photographing beneath the gorgeous oak tree there, a miniature horse was walking by with it’s owner and I jumped at the opportunity to photograph little man Everett with the horses. SO COOL. Needless to say I had a blast with this fun, stylish and smart family and I love that they created some awesome custom canvases for their home! Have you heard the news about the fall mini-sessions? Here’s more info about the family photos in Portland, Bend and Wilsonville this autumn, and I would love to document your family soon!

A Portland Golf and Country Club Wedding
Is there anything prettier than a spring wedding? I love classic country club weddings for that elegant town and country vibe that can only be achieved at the best venues. Columbia Edgewater Country Club is gem of a location tucked away in the industrial Columbia River area, this country club is surrounded by English gardens, sweeping views and great patios. Julie and Dylan actually wed in Hawaii in a personal and intimate elopement and later celebrated with their extended family and friends here in Portland, complete with another ceremony to include Dylan’s darling daughter, Charlie. Julie’s stunning dress was designed by Lian Carlo, with elegant hair and makeup by Kirstie Wight Makeup and the timeless bouquets from Jordan at Blum Design in Flowers. The party was fun with all ages on the dance floor and mad beats from DJ Royal. Thanks so much Julie and Dylan for choosing me to document your gorgeous Portland wedding celebration!

Allison Inn Engagements
Kelsey and Josh and their super cute boxer Cassius, met up with me recently at the remarkable Allison Inn in Newberg Oregon. This couple is super sweet together and gorgeous! Their engagement day started out rainy, but luckily the Allison had a ton of incredible indoor spots for photos, like the beautiful pool and perfect spiral staircase. Kelsey and Josh actually dated in high school and went to prom together! After reuniting a few years later, the love was true and obvious (and the glitter, Boyz II Men and prom dress sleeves were no longer in the way!) and they will be saying their I Do’s at the Left Bank Annex this September. I’m so excited for their wedding day, it’s going to be a blast!

Timberline Mt. Hood Engagement Photos
In case you’re wondering, Mt. Hood in April and a parking lot in Welches, OR is where these images were taken. Timberline is a personal fave of mine for so many reasons. It’s a cool, historic hotel with a stunning view and a great history. Bobby and Jennie love to chillax here on the weekends, and snowboard, hike and hang out and it made perfect sense for us to photograph their engagements here! Hope you love the sneak peek B&J and I’m SO excited for your summer wedding at the beautiful, Oregon Golf Club!
