While you enjoy this engagement session at Smith Rock, let me tell you a little story…

Doyle reached out to me last fall with an inquiry to capture their upcoming wedding and the message read “What does this high cost wedding photography come with… I’m not rich (by no means) but I want photos my lady and I can be proud to show the world!! Help a dude out!!”. So I got on the phone with them and explained what it means to have me as your photographer and the value that I bring to the entire process.

Fast forward *spoiler alert, they booked me for their wedding* and we got to Smith Rock for their engagement session. They were nervous and anxious and unsure how they would do in front of the camera. We wandered and cracked jokes and played around a bit exploring the beauty around us.

I got to watch them become more at ease through the camera. Really, they were pretty much killing it at the beginning. By the end of the session, Doyle was ready to plan another whole session. He couldn’t get over how much fun they had!

Sure, they got pretty images to enjoy. Now these two also know they had nothing to be nervous about. Their wedding day portraits will be an absolute blast because the “being in front of the camera” jitters are already gone!

Yes, photography is an investment. When you find someone you click with who provides their expertise to your benefit, it is worth every penny. I already cannot waitttttttttt to capture their wedding and I think I’ve got them hooked on Couple’s Sessions now, hehe!

Enjoy their engagement session at Smith Rock! For more inspiration from this area, check out this post!
