Shevlin Park Engagement
Elizabeth and Carter
Elizabeth and Carter are so sweet! I love seeing young couples in love. They wanted romantic and fun images in the woods to use as their Save-The-Dates and I think we captured perfect images for the two of them.
Shevlin Park served as the best fall background for this mini session/engagement session. I just love the wild Oregon landscape. We even found a patch of yellow/orange bushes to give that extra fall glow!
I don’t often do engagement sessions as mini sessions because I like to spend time really getting to know my clients and warming them up to the idea of being in front of the camera. Usually I scrap about 90 percent of the images of that first 20 minutes of the session as I’m getting them comfortable and allowing them to relax to get those beautiful and natural romantic moments. Photographing a 25 minute engagement session was challenging, but luckily I had an amazing couple to work with.
We jumped right in with romantic photos. I find when people trust me, they can loosen up pretty quick and get the photos they want. That’s what happened with Elizabeth and Carter. They let go of any anxiety of being in front of the camera which allowed me to get some great photos of the two of them.
Elizabeth and Carter, thank you so much for hopping into the shoot with great attitudes and trust. I had a great time with you guys and with your sweet pup! I hope you cherish these moments! – Kellianne
