Derryn & Leiah's Vintage Romantic Engagement Session | Kari Rae Photography, Portland Engagement Photographer, Oregon Love Photographer

Derryn & Leiah - what a couple. 

The first part of this session came to life after I saw Leiah's hat. Immediately, I had a vision for this style with the classic car; and I'm so thankful they trusted me enough to pull it off!

The rest of the evening was spent celebrating their love. Their gorgeous relationship, their blazing hearts for each other, and the anticipation of their upcoming wedding day. It is a joy to know these two lovely souls. Have I mentioned recently how much I adore my clients and my job?

So many beautiful souls have opened themselves to me this year. I am so, so grateful.

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

Ryan & Shannon's Beloved Session | Portland Love Photographer, Kari Rae Photography

Shannon is a dear friend of mine, so now Ryan is also. They are becoming one flesh on September 1st in Clearwater, Florida. Their love is full of grace, victory, selflessness, forgiveness, and Jesus. My heart is glad for the soon-to-be Martins, and this session was such an honor to be a part of. Enjoy!
