The day many of us were shooting weddings, working behind the scenes, attending a wedding, maybe even “zooming” into a friends from afar! This was my smallest intimate wedding yet, with just 4 guests plus the couple. They gathered in NW Portland to say I do, have a picnic, and eat cake. It rained all morning but the skies parted for their special afternoon. It may not have been the New Orleans wedding they had planned for, but it was perfect in its own beautiful way! Congrats Lisa & Dusty 🥂

Went to Mars on a little vacay 👽

The Alvord Desert is SO FREAKING COOL y’all. It legitimately feels like you’re on another planet with endless miles of flat cracked land. You can’t quite explain how amazing it is until you’ve seen it with your own eyes. I’ve never been somewhere as expansive and as creepily quiet. 11/10 recommend.

Just one more place to add to the list to elope in the PNW that is badass af✌️

Me running home as fast as I can from Trader Joe’s to eat everything I just bought 😉

For real though, these babes were so much fun to explore the coast with over the weekend! Butt touches, heavy wind, and lots of laughs. I wore shorts because the weather said 68 degrees - bad bad idea. Do not recommend.

Can’t wait for your wedding day next year Lizzie and Tyler!
