My first engagement shoot  of 2011 was a joy! I could not have asked for a more exciting couple to shoot with, just what I needed to get me back into the groove as wedding season approaches. With Marnel & Matthew now residing in separate states (California & Oregon, respectively) at least two of us would have to travel for their engagement shoot. Of course we picked one of the rainiest cities in the country. You guessed it: Portland, OR. However, the rain held up just enough that we could capture their love.

It is ridiculous how vivacious they are. They fell in love at Howard University; Matthew enjoys pottery, Marnel loves to paint; they both love to run and have completed a few marathons; they salsa dance; they’ve driven across the county from east to west; and they love chicken and waffles. 🙂 I read a recent comment someone posted on Facebook, Marnel & Matthew are sporty, smart and definitely spicy. After spending a few days with them I decided that Anyeka and I need to find a new hobby.

Take a second and enjoy some of my favorites from their Portland engagement session.

    They are one of my absolute favorite couples! The pictures are so beautiful, but pale in comparison to them. Still, great job at capturing their essence.
