Downtown Portland Night Engagement Photography

Winter night portland engagement photographers

For our winter evening engagement shoot, we met at my downtown studio about an hour before sunset – Amanda and Michael drank hot chocolate out of home made mugs and snuggled, laughed and made crinkle noses at each other. (Well, Amanda made crinkle noses, I’m not sure if Michael can really do it)

Then we took a little stroll outside so we could freeze our faces off for a bit. Yes, it was a brisk 32 degrees that night! We walked around the PSU campus and then downtown to all the pretty lit trees! There is nothing like white Christmas lights at night for awesome background bokeh!

Stunning at 40!

40th birthday makeover photoshoot

Umm…. so this one was a little shocking for me. This beautiful woman was given a makeover and photoshoot by her awesome mom for her 40th birthday! I should have asked to see her driver’s license because I feel like maybe they’re playing a practical joke on me? I would seriously think this woman was in her twenties if I had to guess. It must just be some clean living or just really great genes… or both!

Autumn Engagement at Vista Hills Vineyard

Vista hills vineyard engagement session

We started off in the barrel room with their last bit of wine and then headed out to the beautiful forest area that’s just outside the wine tasting room. I don’t know exactly how much wine these two had before I showed up, but definitely enough to skip around and have a good time together! I also love the shot towards the end of the post where they’re trying to do “serious face” for the camera. It didn’t work out but I like “trying not to crack up” face better anyway.

Best Portland Boudoir Photographers

So, I’m still figuring what to call this genre of portraiture. In the past, I always used the term “boudoir photography” but I don’t think that’s really accurate for most of my clients. Maybe contemporary glamour or beauty photography? What do you think? Anyway, whatever you wanna call it, my goal is to make each woman look her best and know how beautiful she is. We all have our own beauty and allure, my job is to bring it out!
