Raishelle and Riley met while they both worked together at Fred Meyer! (Or as most of us like to call it: Freddies!!) They were both in the electronics department and started having great conversations and realizing there was something magic there! When Raishelle and Riley and I talked about the possibility of shooting their engagements there, I was SO excited! Of course there are some challenges with a shopping store but I embraced them and love the results. We got permission of course and incorporated some of the awesome iconic Freddie’s magic into the session including that classic red sign, the crafts section, the outdoor garden center, and the electronics department! We finished the session with some beautiful images at Memorial Park in Wilsonville. Raishelle and Riley are kind, intelligent and a fun loving couple and I’m so excited to be photographing their wedding this summer in wine country! 
Engagement
Amy and Jeff and I met up along the waterfront on a gorgeous Friday afternoon at the same time that the iconic cherry blossoms were in bloom. It’s such a Portland landmark and it was one of the nicer days in a while so the waterfront was really busy and I was a bit worried that Amy and Jeff would feel a little awkward in front of the camera and a lot of people, but instead, they made magic happen. Their kindness, compassion and deep love came through in each image and I love the bursts of laughter mixed all in there! Amy and Jeff are truly a beautiful and perfect pair and I’m so excited to be documenting their wedding this June!
Wedding Ceremony: Vancouver Court House
