Welcome:
Hi there, I'm so glad you're here! I'm Melissa, the creative mind

without my camera.

Hang and Michael. If I could sum them up I would say this couple loves to have fun and does not take life too seriously. Hang was laughing practically the entire time! When I first asked Hang what her favorite thing to do with Michael was she said laughing... and it proved to be true!
We scheduled their engagement session at Oaks Park here in Portland, Oregon. The weather was gorgeous and the rides were just as fun. I can't remember the last time I've been on a carnival ride but they were a hoot!...it's sorta tricky photographing mid air on a swinging seat up on the ferris wheel!
Enjoy!
This session just makes me happy! Thanks for reading!

(06.30.10 @ 10:24 AM)These are great, such a wonderful setting for engagement photos! I especially like the one where they are holding up the lolly-pops, and on the Ferris Wheel when it is pointing up to the light with the "don't rock the seat" message. Simply, fantastic!
