Ashley & Caleb

I had a wonderful evening hanging out with Ashley and Caleb and taking their engagement photos. They chose St. John's Bridge for their shoot location, and being that it's my favorite bridge in Portland, I was quite excited. We had a beautiful fall evening with some gorgeous light, and Ashley and Caleb were awesome. Their session was filled with laughter, and as I worked on their photos I almost started laughing myself, remembering that every time they were laughing, I was laughing as well. I'm so grateful to work with such wonderful people...

Ashley and Caleb, thank you so much for hiring me to take your engagement photos. It was great hanging out with you guys for the evening!

I hope everyone had a great start to their week today!

Katie & Joey

I spent a lovely evening with Katie & Joey at Methven Vineyards. Methven is a beautiful vineyard and the staff was so kind to let us come and take pictures there. The whole night the clouds threatened to rain on us, but we threatened them right back, and clearly we won :)

Katie and Joey, thank you so much for taking the time to do this session! It was so great hanging out with you both and I'm so excited and thankful that I get to shoot your wedding this next summer! You both are such fun, caring people, thank you.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! We've got a gorgeous wedding in downtown Portland with outdoor photos at St. Johns Bridge (weather pending, get your fingers crossed!).

Courtney & Mark (+ Quincey)

I've known of Courtney Jade for a long time, but I was so excited to finally meet her at her and Mark's photo session. Courtney is a fantastic photographer and graphic designer. You can see her work at her photography website by clicking here, and of course, because she's a graphic designer she has gorgeous design and branding. Courtney and Mark were both so awesome and so much fun at their session. They were both really laid back and I was inspired by them because they were both so humble and kind. We decided to have the session at a U-pick apple orchard, because orchards are so beautiful, and Mark also really likes apples. Marquam Meadows Fruit Company was kind enough to let us use their orchard even though they weren't open! Thank you so much you guys! Courtney and Mark also brought along their dog Quincey, which added some fun flare to the session, as did all of the awesome props they brought.

Courtney and Mark, thank you so so much for hiring me to take your photos. It was so great to finally meet you both and I'm really glad for the time we had to hang out. I hope everyone had a great Wednesday today!
