This intimate Hoyt Arboretum wedding kicked off in the late morning, right as the light started to settle into the trees. It was that sweet spot where the forest feels bright but calm. Y + C invited a small group of their closest family, many of whom traveled up from Southern California to be part […]

T+E’s story starts in California. After moving north and settling into Oregon life, misty forests and waterfall hikes became more of a normal weekend plan. So when T started thinking about how to pull off an epic proposal, choosing an iconic Pacific Northwest spot felt like the obvious move. A casual “group hike” made for […]

It was a calm, overcast morning at Salted Roots Cabins, the perfect setting for H+T to start their Alaska elopement day. They eased into their day slowly, intentionally, and completely together. The light drifted in through the cabin windows while they completed their pre-ceremony routine. H slipped into her gown from Orainda’s Bridal, and T […]

When R first told me she wanted her fall mountain engagement photos to feel like a full-on Gilmore Girls autumn special, I just about screamed. She and Z fell in love with my fall session from last year and wanted just that. We arrived at Mount Rainier during peak fall glory. The meadows were absolutely […]

E+K’s Alaska glacier elopement began slowly, intentionally, and was surrounded by wild beauty. Their Airbnb in Glacier View was tucked right into the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, with towering evergreens outside and light spilling through the cabin windows. It was a perfectly peaceful morning. They spent the morning getting ready separately. E’s dress was […]

A + A had already said “I do” the week before, but without a photographer there to capture it, they decided to make up for lost time, and I’m so glad they did. These Cannon Beach wedding photos turned into something even more special than a typical wedding day. Cannon Beach never misses. The salty […]

A+A flew out from Minnesota for their Cannon Beach honeymoon, and honestly? They couldn’t have picked a better spot to kick off married life. There’s just something about the Oregon Coast. Idk, maybe it’s the towering evergreens, salty ocean air, or cliffs that make you stop mid-sentence? We planned a two-hour adventure session that gave […]

When T+R reached out about planning a beach anniversary photoshoot for their 5th wedding anniversary, I was stoked. They had traveled from Omaha, NE, to the Oregon Coast for vacation. What makes these kinds of sessions so memorable is how they celebrate a milestone in a way that feels intentional and true to who you […]

M+S came all the way from sunny Florida to the Pacific Northwest, and could there be a better excuse to take some epic Mt Rainier engagement photos? They knew they wanted something more than just a cute park or beach back home—they wanted the mountain. And let me tell you, Mt. Rainier did not disappoint. […]

A couple’s photoshoot is extra special when it marks a decade together. Ten years of inside jokes, countless adventures, and probably at least a few “what do you want for dinner?” debates that still don’t have a clear winner. For C+M, their anniversary session kicked off in Portland’s own backyard—Hoyt Arboretum—where redwoods and winding trails […]
