Columbia River Gorge Adventurous Engagement
MyTien & Garret flew to Oregon so I could show them my favorite spots in the gorge-ous Columbia River Gorge for their all-day, adventure engagement session. We started at Salt & Straw, a Portland staple and the location of their first ever date. The rest of the day consisted of waterfalls, cliffside views in the stunning Cascade Locks, some Japanese whiskey (a lá James, my boyfriend who came with us and brought our dog Latte), lots of driving, and a beautiful sunset at Government Cove. After our long, but amazing, full day engagement in the Gorge, we ended the night with pizza & drinks. The perfect end to the perfect day.
We had so much fun all day, and they loved James (or maybe the whiskey he brought…) so much they sent him his own save-the-date for the wedding (I’ll be shooting it of course!) MyTien & Garret, we can’t wait to celebrate you two!

and just for fun – here are some sweet film edits from the day in case ya like that kinda thing 😉
kindest words from Garret:
“I was thoroughly impressed with the amount of research and uniqueness of the locations you picked out. They truly were one of a kind and it’s evident in the result. It felt like you took us on an excursion and it really made us appreciate how beautiful the Pacific Northwest is. We never doubted your ability, and this proves why.”
Want your own personalized, unique adventure session to celebrate your engagement? Let’s start planning today! 🙂
