Desiree and Kate are the kind of couple you meet and just click with. Hours seem like minutes and my face hurt from smiling so much. I loved their plans for their engagement shoot around Portland, incorporating wine tasting at Enso, a vintage arcade and a walk in the woods with their three labs. It makes me so happy when a couple truly uses their engagement shoot as way to reflect on their shared interests and hobbies. The wine was a little more Des, the arcade a little more Kate, and the woods were truly them. We had a blast and I am so looking forward to their downtown Portland wedding in April! 
Engagement
When you first meet Michelle and Chris, you can’t help but notice how so full of love, kindness, joy and adventure they have together and for others! Michelle and Chris fell in love among the castles of Germany and Chris proposed on top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, so I knew these photos would be something epic! The engagement session started as a fun day along Mississippi with a beer/photo stop at 
Laurie and Brett are a super kind, gorgeous, fun-loving couple and we lucked out with one of the last nice days of the year! We met in the Pearl and walked around the ever-changing neighborhood to find some nooks and crannies and we found a sky! Not just any sky either, the clouds were amazing and the blue was perfect. So thrilled to be documenting Laurie and Brett’s wedding in Bend this Summer!
Yes, Sarah and Carter are truly this beautiful! Their love for each other was immediately apparent in the way they interacted with each other and I love how absolutely happy they both are. It made me happy! After a few emails about cool locations, we wanted a mix of industrial and elegant, but still very Portland. So we met up in the NW industrial area and had a blast capturing their great style with interesting backdrops. I noticed right away that they were pretty comfortable in front of the camera, and then I found out that Carter was a child model! I can see why! Also, Sarah is a fashionista with an incredible (and addictive!) beauty blog called 
Lucy and Tim have a beautiful energy together. Their fun and exuberant love is contagious! Their cute pup tagged along for our first location around their neighborhood in Multnomah Village and finished the shoot around the waterfront and on the Broadway Bridge around dusk with some incredible light. I’m so excited to be documenting their first steps together as husband and wife in September!

Becky and Scott invited me to their Portland home for their engagement session recently and I had no idea what I was in for! A stunning home, incredible gardens, cute kitties, flowers, berries and a greenhouse! Becky and Scott are SO inspiring, kind and compassionate and have planted their incredible garden by hand and with love. It makes perfect sense that their wedding take place later this month at the gorgeous
