This Oregon engagement session on Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast was absolutely gorgeous. This couple’s engagement pictures turned out beautifully thanks to the epic landscape that is Haystack Rock, the Pacific Ocean, and an amazing sunset. It didn’t hurt that they were completely in love with each other either! (They even brought their dogs […]

Lynn and Sarah are hilarious. Like seriously hilarious. They had me, and each other, in stitches throughout their entire session. I had so much fun and I’m pretty sure that they did, as well.
