Anne Marie + Chris: University of Portland Engagement Session

I LOVE it when couples choose locations for their engagement sessions that are sentimental to them! This University of Portland engagement session was exactly that!

Jessica + Bryan: A Gates, Oregon Engagement Session

There have been many times when I will get requests to shoot on a client’s private property or property of a family member.

Lauren + Jacob: A Wedding in Seabeck, Washington

Weddings in this season look a little different. This beautiful wedding in Seabeck, Washington was a Plan B wedding. Larger receptions and guests lists are being replaced (temporarily) with smaller and more intimate ceremonies. Though these restrictions are not something any bride or groom want or should have to go through when planning the most […]

Featured Friday: The Woods on Crooked Finger

Talk about a woodsy fairytale setting! The Woods on Crooked Finger, located in Scotts Mills, Oregon and run by owner Faith Fennimore, is one dreamy spot to tie the knot! I worked alongside Faith during a wedding I shot here late last year. It felt like I stepped right into the wedding scene from Twilight! […]

Once upon a time, nestled back into the trees at the edge of a glorious cliff overlooking the Columbia Gorge, sat this enchanted historic manor. The Columbia Gorge Hotel and Spa. Surrounded by 7 acres of romantic gardens, winding pathways along a gentle flowing creek, of which you’re likely to see ducks splashing around in […]
