Leave the Beaten Path for the Best Adventure.
Adventure Sessions
Mother Nature makes the Best Canvas.
-----
For something a little different than your typical park or urban setting in town for photos, consider taking a little drive out to explore the Pacific Northwest! I offer Day Trips and Weekend Excursions to different areas around Washington and Oregon. All of my trips require a willingness to drive out to distant and remote locations where cell service may not be reliable.
Day Trip locations are usually within 2 hours of Vancouver, Washington. Weekend Adventures are within 3-4 hours of Vancouver with accommodations included. You'll check in Friday night and depart for home Sunday mid-morning. Adventure sessions come in a package that includes the session fee, shoot time, and the experience.
Adventure Sessions are booked at least six months in advance and are limited in number based on seasonal availability.
For more information regarding Adventure Sessions, contact me directly.

Dalles Mountain + The Gorge
Booking between March through Mid July
Dalles Mountain Ranch is perfect for some beautiful wildflowers and rolling hill shots! We'll hike the trail before finishing the day at Horsethief Butte for a beautiful rocky view along the river. The hike is moderately difficult mostly due to hill climb, but we don't need to do the whole thing. This trip is booked partially early to avoid the heat of peak summer and to get the best chance at viewing wildflowers.
Crown Point + Multnomah Falls
Booking between March through October
A staple when visiting the Columbia River Gorge, Multnomah Falls and Vista Point are two of the best places to visit! We'll spend a bit of time at Multnomah Falls and visiting the different waterfalls along Old Highway 30 before heading to Vista Point. The best times to visit this area is during sunrise or sunset for those golden hour vibes!

Expect some stargazing and campfires, depending on seasonal restrictions and weather.

Mount Rainier has some of the best views ever! Especially as fall comes around the corner and the leaves begin to turn.

We'll also have a campfire with smores, depending on seasonal restrictions.
