“beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. the least we can do is try to be there.” - annie dillard

what a joy to photograph Zach and Shaina for their engagement + wedding, and, most recently, as they were awaiting the arrival of their first baby - and then to meet her a few months later!

it is never lost on me what an honor it is to glimpse a little twinkling of the precious lives of the humans i have the privilege to work with, to observe the beauty and depth in these moments and reflect them back.

Eileen & Brent | Washington Park {Portland Engagement Photography}

These two are a lot of fun, and so is their awesome pup Oscar!! He was a very patient model, only demanded one short break to chase a squirrel. Really looking forward to Eileen & Brent's wonderful wedding this August!

Carolyn & Kyle {Portland Engagement Photography}

i had the privilege of photographing Carolyn's mother's wedding a couple years ago (check it out here), and was incredibly honored to be asked to be Carolyn's photographer when she got engaged to Kyle! We had a fun walk around Old Town taking their engagement portraits, walked across the Steel Bridge where Kyle proposed, and ended up at the Rose Garden. You miiight be able to tell they are Blazers fans. I can't wait for their wedding this September at Leftbank Annex!
