When I first met with Kayla & Johnny I asked them how they met. Kayla immediately told me the story of “The cute guy with the red cleats”. I loved it! It seemed only fitting to celebrate the love that soccer brought together, by starting their engagement session at the Portland Timbers stadium. We had a great time running around the field, getting yelled at by a grounds keeper only once, and taking some fun & playful images. After the field we ventured out into the NW pearl district then onto nibble cupcakes. It is kind of ridicules how much fun we had.
Here are a few of my many favorites…
Kayla & Johnny thanks for all of the fun ideas, and for being up for ANYTHING! I had so much fun working with you. My hubby also thanks you for the last stop of the cupcake shop, he loved the left overs. 😉 It was such a fun night. I hope you have enjoyed the sneak peek. I am so looking forward to your wedding next year! For now I would love to offer you a little blog challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this blog post I will throw in an 11×14 wall print on the house.
So leave some love people!

Kayla,
What a great idea to have some of your pictures taken at the stadium and we too love saint cupcakes. I especially like the smoked chocolate chip cookie I(though my husband says it taste like fish) tee hee hee. YOur photographer really has an eye and seems to ‘catch the moment’ when you too have that special connection.
Great photography and wonderful subjects!
Love, absolutely love, the black and whites. Especially the one with the soccer net in the foreground!
Fabulous pictures! Your smiles are contagious, congrats you two!
