I finally found myself back in Portland for a third time… I really just cannot get enough of Oregon. It is so beautiful! This time, I photographed this engagement session in the redwood forest in Hoyt Arboretum.

The Hoyt Arboretum is a true gem just 10 minutes outside of Portland. With several different landscapes to choose from, it makes a perfect spot for your engagement session!

This was my second time in Portland, Oregon and I just knew I had to do a couples session at Hoyt Arboretum for Judy and James. The Hoyt Arboretum is a gorgeous museum of living trees, right outside of Portland! How amazing is that?!

Warren Dunes State Park truly is a beautiful engagement session location in Western Michigan. No matter what you’re looking for, Warren Dunes has it all!

Maddie & Tyler had SUCH a gorgeous elopement right here in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Their Michigan forest elopement was on the perfect dreamy day to capture some glowy photos. I’m local to the area; I would love to help you with your Kalamazoo elopement!

Camping elopements are some of the most intimate, immersive and close-to-nature ways you can elope. However, they don’t come without some compromises, specific gear, and skills. Here is everything you need to consider before running away into the woods together.
