being the super good-looking and stylish couple that they are, max and mandi graciously agreed to model for me in october. right before they moved away to california, sadly. these images make me miss them! happy weekend everyone!
Niscelle originally planned this shoot long distance from Washington DC as a surprise anniversary present for Molly, who is a Portland native - after talking to Niscelle over the past few months, I could not wait to meet them both! apparently, they met in Forest Park, so it turned out to be the perfect place to photograph them.
a sweet, silly and fun-loving couple. crisp fall light. a walk through the leaves. can't really ask for much more than that!
I just have to say, there is something special about fall in Portland. Sure, it's chilly, but the light is so beautiful! To start off Amber & Jason's engagement session, I met up with them at one of their favorite coffee places. I took a few frames from their apartment balcony as well before we went down to the Broadway Bridge and wandered around a bit in the Pearl. I had such a good time photographing these two - they are such a sweet couple and I can't wait for their wedding in Hood River next summer! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
a mini-session with this super sweet couple. quite a nice way to spend a sunday morning. here are a few of my favorite images!
These two were so much fun to photograph - they are goofy and sweet and love to make fun of each other (in the nicest way possible, of course). Chris & Jayme, I wish you the best of luck with everything!
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!
I've known these two for a long time but hadn't seen either of them since early college. Heard they were engaged through facebook, and then randomly ran into them at a bar a few months ago when they moved to Portland from St. Louis. To be asked to shoot their engagement session was an absolute privilege and a joy. They are so sweet and so comfortable with each other - photographing that kind of love is so much fun.
Shaun and Jessica had two concepts for their engagement session: on the one hand, an urban "Portland-y" vibe; on the other, a nod to their Mardi Gras-masquerade-themed wedding. We met up early to catch the early morning sunshine - worth it. Oh, and no big deal, Jessica had strawberries, bagels & cream cheese, and orange juice waiting when I arrived (yum).
I'm so happy for both of you - and so happy you live in Portland now!
