SW Portland Urban Winter Engagement Session!

Crista and James are FUN! We had been communicating via email for months (since they live out of state). When we finally met in person, two days ago, it was as if we had known each other for ever! We totally bonded and had a blast on their engagement session... and their wedding is today! ;)

Here is a sneak peek of their engagement session. It was a non-rainy day in Portland (which is rare for this time of year!) but it was COLD! We all bundled up and had a blast walking around SW Portland, near their hotel. I predict a fun-filled wedding day today with them!

Happy Holidays! Timberline Lodge, snowy and lovely Engagement Session!

Timberline Lodge is a stunning place. Full of history and warm comfort. It's a local destination for many Oregon and Washington residents who love the snow and love to ski. It's also a popular destination for shoots such as this fun engagement session (and of course, weddings)! 

Stephanie & Josh live in another state and are in Oregon to visit family. They stayed at Timberline Lodge over the weekend, which is when we drove up to meet them for their session. It was BEAUTIFUL and FUN exploring the place and getting to know them! Genuine souls, grateful for life and long-time sweethearts. We had posted one quick image as a sneak peek two days ago, but now we're ready to show you many more! 

Today is December 25th 2012, so... if you celebrate: HAPPY HOLIDAYS to everyone, and especially to Stephanie & Josh, featured here! ;) If you don't celebrate: LOVE AND PEACE TO YOU AND YOURS!

Timberline Lodge Winter Engagement Session!

This is one suuuper quick, single-image, sneak peek! As we work on the rest of the images from our session with Stephanie & Josh from yesterday, here is one that really shows the beautiful winter wonderland that surrounded the two of them. Timberline Lodge was gracious enough to let us photograph on their premises, inside and out. We started off inside and then moved to the outside towards the end. It was FUN! Stephanie & Josh are sweethearts and live out of state. They came to spend the weekend at the beautiful lodge, which is WONDERFUL because we LOVE to drive up there in the winter! So much snow and great energy. Can't wait to show you more!

Portland Waterfront Pearl engagement session.

Katie and Todd are two love birds. We explored Portland's Waterfront Pearl and Tanner Springs Park, which are two special places to them, as they live in the area. We had a blast laughing, walking around and getting to know them! After the shoot, they were so kind to invite us to their condo for a glass of wine... we are SO lucky to have clients who are as genuine and loving as they are! Thank you, you guys!! Here is a handful of their session...
