A Dream Coming True | Portland Love Photographer, Oregon Couples Photographer

It's no secret that we've been keeping a secret. 

Especially if you follow us on Facebook or Instagram... which you totally should, because it's a party and a half. 

Today though, we spill. Kind of. ;) 

Stay tuned!! 

Nicole & Robbie Beloved Engagement Session | Kari Rae Photography, Portland Engagement Photographer

One of my favorite things to do is find the best, most deserving couples out there. I'll ask my followers to nominate their family & friends and tell me what makes them the awesome, beautiful couple they are. Robbie & Nicole were nominated and I had the pleasure of blessing them with this engagement session. 

Love on, lovebirds..

I want to love him | Kari Rae Photography, Portland Beloved Photographer

I'm continuously inspired by the love my beautiful muses allow me to witness. So intimate. So personal. So real.

Mommy & Me Session | Portland Family Photographer, Kari Rae Photography

Stephanie and James are the absolute sweetest and they are so in love! This time, I'm not talking about an engaged or married couple...but a mommy & her 4-year-old son.

Oh. My. Word.  

This was such a special session for me to be able to do, as Stephanie and I have been dreaming about it since last Fall. She knew she wanted some great, large photos of the 2 of them for her walls.

So, she saved her pennies for a couple seasons (custom photography is quite the luxury, but I think Stephanie would tell you it's worth the wait!) and we got to have our session a couple weeks ago!

I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed creating them... you can see the adoration in their eyes. Awww! I'm in love <3

Danielle - Graduating Walla Walla University | Portland Senior Photographer

Danielle is graduating from Walla Walla University this year, and will continue on to be a nurse; hopefully for the NICU. (Thanks in advance, Danielle, for all the lives you will touch and be a part of saving!) And WOWZA, is she going to rock the world!!

This girl is stunning (which takes about .0008 seconds to figure out), hilarious, and a very quick friend. She is going places, I tell you!

Check her out. :)

Danielle, I have had a little too much fun working with you and getting to know you. Not one second of it has felt like work...just having a grand ol' time with a friend. You have blessed me! Thank you!
