So excited to share this beautiful Oregon Coast Engagement session! We almost rescheduled because the reports were predicting rain, but I’m so glad we didn’t – it turned out to be a gorgeous evening at Ecola State Park in Cannon Beach. Dramatic skies, a gorgeous sunset, a beautiful, happy couple and their darling puppy – these are the work days that keep me coming back for more!
When artists get married, their weddings are always especially beautiful. So it was with Amira and Noah’s lovely Oregon Coast wedding at Camp Magruder last September.
I first met Amira when she was a bridesmaid in Tim and Sylvie’s wedding in Minneapolis several summers ago. We all live in Portland, Oregon, but travelled to Minnesota for the wedding. Since then, I’ve worked with her several times, photographing her beautiful jewelry designs and making some environmental portraits to help promote her business. I was excited to photograph her wedding because I knew that she had great taste and the skills to translate her artist’s eye into very photogenic wedding. And she and her financé Noah didn’t disappoint!
There’s something truly magical about shooting on the Oregon Coast. Even on a fairly grey day, the skies and textures of the beach come through beautifully on film. That’s why I was so excited when a former client got together with some friends to hire me to travel out to Seaside to take maternity and newborn photos as a baby shower gift for Mandy and Dave.
