Josh and Elsie had their spring engagement session on a cloudy day in May.  I’m in love with these photos… they are quiet and calm, I think they truly reflect how kind and loving Elsie and Josh are to each other. We had our session at Keizer Rapids Park, one of my favorite spots in […]

I know I am not the only photographer with a bucket list of portrait session locations. We dream of having our couples agree to go to one of our dream locations- some more elaborate than others. Photographers are always on the hunt for new and beautiful places to go. From dreaming outside the car window […]

Today’s post features garden engagement session with the most adorable couple. Before even having Wayne and Bethany’s session I had my eye on Bush Pasture Park for their beautiful gardens, stunning Victorian house, and sweet greenhouse. I had a feeling the location would be absolutely gorgeous for some portraits! I love the ability to be […]

I met Bryan and Koryssa for their fall engagement session at Clearwater Park and Landing, in Springfield, Oregon. I think I can safely say it’s the perfect location for photos that combine forest, rustic look with an airy romantic feel. In mid-October, you never know which way the weather will go, but we got a […]

Part Two: The Engagement (check out part one of my love story HERE) After knowing each other for ten plus years, it was so easy to fall in love. Oh, and did we fall in love fast. Without even being together long, our family and friends already started to question when we were going to […]

This session was an absolute dream!

May and Kevin were our giveaway winners on Instagram (you should definitely go follow), and […]

This creek-side engagement session was probably the most adventurous sessions I have done! After living nearly my whole in Silverton, I have never made my way to Abiqua Falls in Scott’s Mills. I never knew what was in store! Brett and Kimberly envisioned romantic, whimsical portraits in the water. And, while we did achieve that, […]

Although I am not good at doing most of these, as it is so easy to get caught up with the day to day life. I have to remind myself to love selflessly. There is just something about a loved one doing the little things, that show your love, that makes you fall in love […]

You spend so much time, money, and effort putting together every aspect of your wedding day together. Making sure every element reflects you and your partner, and has so meaning to your story. They complete your wedding story. I want to make sure everything is documented beautifully so every time you look at them you […]

After spending the morning with countless brides I have compiled a little wedding morning guide to help future brides. Some things are obvious, like making sure you have your dress, while others are some I have come across throughout the years. First, I believe that the prep should take place WAY before the day of […]
