A photographer always starts getting extra excited for the wedding when they have a super adventure time engagement session…

It was so much fun working with Ally, Patrick, and their fur-baby Benji, around Tumalo Creek and Shevlin Park on a perfect sunny day in late June. We originally planned to go to Tumalo Falls, but when I got there to scout locations a little early it was totes cray with all the people there to look at the falls and take pictures. Pro-Tip: When utilized popular tourist locations go on a weekday.  We decided that privacy and a more natural look would work better for us and went down stream to a small rock beach. On our way back to the main road we saw this huge bolder; I inquired about their climbing skills. With a little bit of effort both Ally and Patrick were looking down at me from a solid 10-12 feed up!

After our more rugged adventures we took it down a notch with some nice poses and cuddling around Shevlin Park. Patrick’s sisters were on Benji duty and what a blessing they were, since Benji let me know several times how he felt about me being closer to his mom and dad than he was. lol!

Enjoy!
