2014-01-31_0023Last weekend was gorgeous here in the Pacific Northwest.  I decided to celebrate the beautiful 64 degree, sunny day by taking a road trip to Cannon Beach with my dear friend Amber (and her tangerine scarf.)

Here are some of the highlights;

  • frozen fresh cod for lunch
  • joking about fresh seagull on the menu 
  • double mountain beer
  • driving hwy 101 with the sunroof open
  • acknowledging national compliment day with a few compliments
  • hiking down to shortys
  • yoga on the beach (well kinda)
  • selfies
  • rocky road fudge
  • gorgeous sunset
  • more selfies
  • fish & chips for dinner

I love having Fridays off, sunny winter days and road trips.

    These pictures are so cute. Looks like a fun day, thanks for sharing them.ReplyCancel

Meet Daniel + Alexis…. We met at Edgefield a couple weeks ago to take their engagement portraits and I couldn’t be happier to share them… especially the adorable heart shaped marshmallows I made specially for the shoot.  Alexis picked up the adorable chalk talk mugs from cost plus!  So cute.

Daniel + Alexis have a very sweet engagement story.  Daniel had been planning a special date for weeks.  He sent her flowers and a sweet note the day before and then picked her up really early the next morning keeping the location a “secret.”  After breakfast in Seattle at a cafe in the Alexis hotel he took her to Bainbridge Island.  They had been once before after a Mariners game but didn’t have much time to explore.  This time they explored all day and Daniel asked Alexis to marry him in Port Gamble at a pretty spot overlooking the water!  They will be saying “I DO” next June in St. Helens…  

Hope you enjoy the engagement pics… they were so much fun to photograph!

      Thanks Sarah!!! They are so cute… can’t wait for the wedding.:-)ReplyCancel

I first met Amy at a Starbucks in Sellwood. I immediately knew that I wanted to be her photographer…. she was really organized, knew exactly what she wanted, was gorgeous and complimented me on my punctuality. 🙂 Soon after our chat she signed a contract and booked me for her November wedding.

Fast forward a few months. It was about a month before her wedding… we hadn’t made any plans to take engagement pics but I really wanted to take them. The portland waterfront was so beautiful in October so we choose that location to take a few pictures (Click HERE for a peek.) It was great getting to know Amy + Clark better that day which made shooting them on their wedding day a breeze.

Amy + Clark told me that they met at Trivia. Clark was the host and Amy got up the nerve to write down her phone number, walk over to Clark and put it in his shirt pocket. What guy wouldn’t LOVE a beautiful girl making the first move. I’m sure it didn’t take long before Clark made “his” move… and the rest is history… love, weddings and happily ever after! They are the most adorable couple and I could literally photograph Amy for hours… she really knows how to strike a pose (which might be from watching all that America’s Top Model) haha.

Florist was Hilary @ Emerald Petals on N Mississippi and the coordinators were Leslie King and Kara Dahl who were absolutely amazing!  They don’t have a website yet so if interested in their services please contact me.

I hope you enjoy.
