I am quite behind on my blogging, but I was such a sucker for this shoot. Partly because they included their pup. :) Congrats to Kim and Jake who become Mr. and Mrs. in a few months! 

​Location: McDowell Creek; Lebanon, OR

This last week I had the privilege of capturing this beautiful couple's adoption announcement. There are few shoots as exciting or as fun as this one. It felt like it was building up for a huge explosion of beauty and joy, but also of great trust and endurance. It was one of the first big steps in their adoption process and I was absolutely HONORED to be a part of it. 

It is such a privilege when couples trust me with their engagement shoots. Or any shoot for that matter. Here is Shelby and Brad's engagement shoot. Beautiful people on a beautiful February day in Pacific City, OR. Up on the rock where this first photo was taken is also where Brad proposed. Way to go Brad!
