Southeast industrial family session :: Portland, Oregon lifestyle photographer

My sister-in-law and her family were visiting Portland and they got to be my guinea pigs for this industrial photo session. I have been dreaming of doing family photos around City Liquidators and their festive flags for a very long time. It was a fun change of pass from my usual more natural environments I love to photograph in. Luci Glenn's "tree" also added a nice touch at the end of their documentary style family session. Photographing people I love in a fun new environment made for one of my favorite session to date. Now please, someone else book a photo session at City Liquidators with me! 

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.
