Jenny & Keith : Engaged

They first met at the hospital. She was doing a rotation and he was finishing up his residency. The attraction was mutual and before long, the after-work group dates turned into after-work romantic dates.

Yesterday, Jenny & Keith met me at Sellwood Riverside Park for their engagement session and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. From the beginning, one can see that they have a love that is built on friendship, adoration and respect. They are two of the kindest people and I am honored to be photographing their wedding in July.

Married : Chris & Joanne

I was photographing what was supposed to be my last wedding of the year when I received a message from Chris. I'm getting married in three weeks. I know it's short notice, but I was wondering if you were available? The next day, Chris and I spoke over the phone and made arrangements for me to photograph their upcoming wedding.

It's not often that I don't meet the bride and groom until the wedding day, but because of our short timeline, such was the case. However Joanne was warm and welcoming the minute I entered her hotel room to take some getting ready photos. By the end of the evening I felt like Chris and Joanne had been friends of mine for years. I truly have the most amazing clients and am so blessed to be allowed into their lives to capture their milestones.

Chris & Joanne's wedding took place at the beautiful St. Stephen's in Portland and the reception took place at Gracie's.

Lauren : Portland Senior

Today, I met up with Lauren and her father for Lauren's senior portraits, and what a gorgeous day it was! I forgot how much I love working with seniors and it was so refreshing to spend the afternoon with the beautiful Lauren.
