Kristina and Christopher's Fall Coastal Engagement Session | Oregon Wedding Photographer

Kristina and Christopher had me in legit stitches the entire time during their fall coastal engagement session. My abs and face hurt from laughing so hard with these two through the woods with their fluffy pup and down to the coast where we snuggled for a picnic, raced up and down hills, and frolicked in the sunset. It was the kind of Indian Summer night you pray for when you live up North— the kind of night that warms your soul enough to get you through the winter.

These two have been together for TEN YEARS and still surprise and delight in each other so dang much. My favorite moment by far was when I asked if they wanted to do a piggyback ride, and Chris snuck up behind Kristina and scooped her up and onto her shoulders. Turns out THAT’S what he thought a piggy back ride meant!! The looks on both of their faces are priceless. That’s the kind surprise, love, and joy I delight in capturing and preserving for my couples.

Kris and Chris, I can’t wait for your winter wedding this year!!!! You have the best hashtag of all time (#MerryChrisSmiths) and I’m so excited for the love that lets you share your names.
