Kim & Jon

Kim and Jon have been together for 22 years (though you could never guess it from looking at them)!  I think the secret is that they play together. These two were SO much fun to photograph.  They took everything I said to heart and really leaned into the experience.  They were silly and loving and open and honest.  The result?...I love them.  I want to put them in my pocket and take them home with me.  I want to have double dates and dinner parties and be their best friend.  Oh, you mean the photographic result?  Right here...

Karlee & Matt - Engaged!!

I've known Karlee since she was two, so it is a little bit of a shock to me to be taking her engagement photos!  I used to babysit the girl!  She has grown into such a beautiful woman (how did that happen already?!) and I can hardly believe she is the same girl I used to play "kitchen" with in her bedroom and draw horses for.  What, you didn't know I could draw horses? Psht.  I'm a horse drawing fool.  Actually...probably the last horse I drew looked more like a camel and I drew it for Karlee in like 1990, but hey whatever. 

Karlee and Matt are super sweet together and you can definitely tell how much they enjoy each other.  I'm so excited an honored to be photographing their wedding in September!  Little Karlee is all grown up and she's picked a pretty awesome guy to call her own. :) 

We met on a sunny day in the Pearl in Portland and enjoyed just wandering around and finding fun little nooks to shoot in.  I had a lot of fun making them do silly things and watching them laugh.  Thanks to both of you for being up for anything!  See you in September!!!
