Engaged: Kelly & Gabe in the Columbia River Gorge

May 18, 2015 by Ara R. in Engagement Sessions

On our adventures through the Columbia River Gorge, Kelly & Gabe's first choice was Oneonta Gorge, a beautiful mossy slot canyon on the Old Gorge Highway.  We scrambled in as far as the log jam, their two Weimaraner dogs as our jolly and enthusiastic companions.  Next, we stopped further out into the Gorge for cliffs and views of the river.  It was the perfect Oregon day, and I love the feel of these images.  Kelly & Gabe have the ease of a long relationship, making each other laugh, and fitting together in a way that silently says, "I love you."

Enjoy.  I can't wait for their wedding this summer.
