BEFORE OUR EYES

Trillium Lake and Columbia River Gorge Engagement Photos.

A+N love the outdoors, everything from backpacking to rock climbing. After considering options we landed on a combination of two iconic locations outside of Portland, Oregon. First we started at Trillium Lake in Mount Hood National Forest. Trillium lake is a great spot for engagement photos because you get a view of the beautiful lake, the iconic Mount Hood, and access to some short trails. We started on the trails headed to the lake, captured A+N with Mount Hood and then headed off to Government Cove in the Columbia River Gorge.

The next spot we headed was Government Cove, a perfect spot to catch golden hour that overlooks the Columbia River Gorge.
