Rain can’t stop us. We shot these engagement photos Downtown Portland on one of my favorite streets for shooting photos, just outside the Ace Hotel. Even with full on rain, there are a handful of sick spots to grab some frames. Dan + Rachel brought it for their engagement photos and we’re just getting warmed up. Their wedding at the Benson Hotel is just around the corner.




I would be totally alright if all engagement sessions wrapped up at Por Que No.

A few rad things about our session at Discovery Park: the looming weather and droopy clouds, an awesome couple that wasn’t afraid to laugh and have fun in front of the camera (see image below for example), their awesome dog, almost getting leveled by a St. Bernard the size of a small elephant, bikers in spandex, talking about good food. (And now it’s midnight and I’m craving noodles!)

Kevin + Alex will be getting married in Sacramento, but we shot their engagement photos in the Pearl District where they live. I was stoked to find out Kevin plays for the Timbers, so after their engagement session Jacqi and I went and watched them beat Salt Lake City Real at Jeld Wen Field.

EMP, Seattle, WA - We’ve been busy coordinating and photographing engagement sessions around Seattle and Portland. Here’s a frame from everyone’s favorite magenta wall.
