Portland Elopement + Oregon Coast Reception | Jillian & Jeff

Witnessing your best friend tie the knot is very special.  When she and her fiancé happen to be extremely chic and plan a city elopement + beach reception, it's admittedly, even better.  

Jillian and Jeff live in San Luis Obispo, but are both from Washington state.  Deciding to meet in middle, they created the most lovely Oregon Coast reception for their family and friends.  

We started their day at Knot Springs in Portland and it was the most genius move ever.   What's more relaxing then being with your love in those gorgeous light-filled pools??  If anyone's ever made a case for eloping, it's these two.  

A Portland courthouse ceremony, camping, delicious tacos and Salt & Straw ice cream.. could you plan a better week?! 

Get ready for photo overload!!!! 

And thank you to J + J for allowing us to tag along all week; we love you dearly.

xoxo,

Portland Engagement | Kelsey + Sam

I've always known Kelsey to have a magnetic personality.  She's a head trainer & coach at Orange Theory Fitness here in the Portland area, and she absolutely rocks it.  I love taking her classes and always leave feeling empowered... and sore.  

When I met her fiancé Sam, their union just seemed to make sense immediately.  Both personal trainers, they play off each other's energy like crazy.  Going from silly to sizzling in seconds, they were SO much fun to work with.  And this is just the engagement session!  Just wait until we celebrate their wedding next month people..
