To a photographer, Portland’s Pearl District is like a slice of heaven. I never get tired of shooting there, and I find great new backgrounds at every session. I simply love it. Megan and Travis’ engagement session was no exception.

We chatted as we made our through the busy city streets, stopping to shoot as often as inspiration would strike. The session gave me a great chance to get to know  their personalities and styles a little better in preparation for their December wedding up at Mt. Hood (which I’m 100% psyched for!).  I love shooting engagement sessions if for no other reason than breaking the ice. It’s so nice to show up on wedding day and feel like old friends!

I picked a few of my favorites below. I think the hand-holding shot will be finding a spot on my studio wall in the near future!
