Both Rob and Christy are amazing. They both made me feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. They're prices speak for the work they do. They're both amazingly creative with different point of views. If one can't do it the other can! Get any and all photos here. I will recommend all my family and friends to go to them.

I’ve never felt so comfortable working with photographers. Christy and Rob both made this experience an amazing one and I can’t recommend them enough. They are thoughtful and considerate and make the process insanely easy. I’ve told all my family and friends and I highly encourage y’all to reach out to them for any photography needs!

Love this woman and her eye for photography! She’s laid-back, sweet, understanding and compassionate. I have known her for many years and I’ve seen her photography skills range from senior portraits to newborn to extended families and of course, weddings. She knows when to take charge and to pay attention to every single detail. if her photos don’t say enough about how utterly talented she is I will let you know that you would never regret hiring her and you would be looking back at these photos for years to come!

We're thrilled that you've chosen to embark on this beautiful journey of life together. Here in the heart of Portland, Oregon, we're all about those special, intimate moments that make your love story truly unique. As your trusted photographers, we're excited to guide you through your pre-wedding engagement session. Think of this as a fun opportunity to get to know each other, while creating some stunning visuals that will add to your love narrative.
&nbsp;
Let's start with outfit choices. Comfort is key - choose attire that makes you feel confident and reflects your personal style. Remember, these photos are a celebration of your love and should showcase who you are as a couple. Whether you opt for casual jeans and tees or go for a more formal look, the choice is yours. You could also consider bringing a change of clothes to add variety to your photo collection.
&nbsp;
Next up, location selection. This can be as personal and meaningful as you want it to be. It might be the place where you had your first date, your favorite hiking trail, or even your own home. Outdoor environments often provide beautiful, natural lighting and a variety of backdrops. However, indoor locations can create an intimate, cozy atmosphere. Whatever location you choose, ensure it's a place where you both feel relaxed and at ease.
&nbsp;
Now, let's talk about posing. Don't worry, you don't need to be a professional model to ace this. It's all about being natural and enjoying the moment. Remember, the best photos are often the ones where you are laughing, hugging, and simply being yourselves. We'll be there to guide you and suggest poses, but feel free to express yourselves and be spontaneous.
&nbsp;
The engagement session should be a memorable and enjoyable experience, a chance for you to take a break from wedding planning and just enjoy being together. Don't stress too much about getting everything perfect - it's the raw, authentic moments that make the best photos.
