abbi + keith // engaged {portland engagement photography}

holy moly, two months since my last blog post! i've been busy with various assignments and a whole lotta mamahood, but i definitely need to get back in the habit of blogging! i am so excited for the upcoming wedding season, mostly because of couples like this one - Abbi + Keith! these two are so warm, friendly, smiley and sweet to each other, and their engagement session was so much fun. we took a walk around Commonwealth Lake with their two pups; we had the most lovely fall light. 

more engagement sessions are coming. oh yes they are.

Katy & Robby {Portland Engagement Photography}

I'm so thrilled to be photographing this awesome couple's wedding this August at Wellspring Spa near Mt. Rainier. They are from Seattle but came down to Portland for a little mini-vacation for Katy's birthday and braved the rain with me for their engagement portraits. We went down to Waterfront Park, checked out the saturday market, headed over to Forest Park, and then back over to the Eastbank Esplanade. It was really fun getting to know these two and I'm so looking forward to their wedding!
 

Ellie & Jesse | Oregon Coast {Oregon Engagement Photography}

I had the best time with this wonderful couple, Ellie & Jesse. We walked around all afternoon, from their adorable beach cottage, to the ocean, to a special lookout point, and then finished out their engagement session at the Cape Meares Lighthouse. It was such a beautiful day, especially for January. Ellie and Jesse are both very kind and creative souls and I'm so excited for their wedding this July!

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 & Molly | Forest Park {Portland Couples Photography}

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!
