Holly + Casey: An Engagement at Willamette Mission Park

August 14, 2023

The golden days of late summer cast their warm glow over the Pacific Northwest. Willamette Mission State Park was the perfect place for Holly and Casey’s engagement session! Nestled in the heart of Oregon, this enchanting setting became the backdrop for a love story destined to unfold.

Willamette Mission Park

Willamette Mission State Park has become a long time favorite of mine for engagement sessions, family portraits, and even senior sessions. It’s absolutely gorgeous in the spring, summer, or fall. This time of year I just love when the grass of the fields grows tall and soft and blows gently in the breeze. This completely set the stage for an intimate and romantic photo session with Holly and Casey!

A Sweet Couple

Holly and Casey are such a sweet couple, whose love story is as timeless as the park’s rich history. As they embark on their journey towards marriage, Willamette Mission State Park becomes the perfect setting to reflect the depth of their connection. The warm, soft sunlight filtered through the leaves and cast a dreamy glow on everything it touched. These two took full advantage of this enchanting light, and allowed it to highlight their love in every frame. The stolen glances, shared laughter, and tender moments that define their unique bond just melted me.

As the sun began to dip below the horizon it cast a warm, orange glow across the park. Willamette Mission State Park, with its rich history and natural charm, became the silent witness to a love story that will continue to bloom and flourish through the changing seasons of life. I can’t wait to capture their wedding day next summer!
