Ryan + Beth :: Latourell Falls Elopement :: Columbia River Gorge

This was my first elopement and all I can say is that I am hooked for good. It was pouring the whole time, which added to the excitement and sense of adventure this couple has built a relationship around. I am so grateful I got to witness such genuine sweet souls experience the exhilarating thrill of sharing vows right next to a waterfall. I drove away with a smile on my face and a natural high from a morning spent doing what I love, with such fun, genuine, and (so very) kind people. Thank you Beth and Ryan, I loved being a small part in your big adventure. 

Katie + Adam :: Gorge Crest Vineyards :: Underwood, WA

When a bride is super calm and easy going on her wedding day, I think it says a lot about her and also the couple's relationship. Katie and Adam were such a dream to work with, and I loved getting to know them so much more through capturing this day for them. Their friends and family adore them together, and it is clear to see why. They are both such genuine, kind, easy going humans. I am so lucky this seems to be a theme with my clients! The weather was perfect, even though Mt. Hood was tucked away until the sun began to set, when she decided to make her debut against the most beautiful wildflowers and puffy pink clouds.

Congrats to you Katie and Adam, thank you for trusting me with these precious moments. 

Heather + Robert :: Columbia Gorge Wedding :: Cape Horn Estate :: Stevenson, WA. ::

Hail, downpours, a slight drizzle during the ceremony, and a double rainbow made for an eventful and dramatic display against the beautiful gorge backdrop. One thing that did remain constant throughout the day was the undeniable admiration and love between this sweet couple. 

Also I have to note that the bride's mom MADE her gorgeous dress. 

“Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.” Rainer Maria Rilke
