Sunny Bend, Oregon Anniverary || Sydnee + Zack

This little sunny Bend, Oregon anniversary session with this adorable family was the highlight of a very busy week!! So freaking grateful for Sydnee + Zack + their pup Rome for running around the lake + open mountain fields with me a few weeks ago.

Sydnee booked a session with me quite a while ago because she wanted to preserve so many memories with her guy before he left over seas for military duty. They just wanted a fun session where they could make memories and love on each other.  Something to hold on to while they were apart!!  Turns out, before our session even came around, Zack ended up PROPOSING to Syd! AND they ended up eloping before it too! Ah! So amazing. Our fun regular couples session kind of turned into a post elopement, anniversary session you could say?? Words can’t even describe how excited I was for these two when I heard everything! Linking their proposal because it’s incredibly stunning. All shot by the ever so talented Dawn Photo. (You’ll have to keep an eye out for their elopement photos by Dawn because, FREAKING BEAUTIFUL).

Had such a blast with these two exploring a little bit of Central Oregon.  Snuggling on their beautiful pup Rome (mostly me) and chasing the sun until it set. These two have hearts of gold and I’m so thankful for them + the opportunity I had to document a little bit of their love story.  Love that they wanted me to capture some moments for them to look back on during the hard times.  That’s one of the best perks to this job, right?
