Couple Photos in Powell’s Bookstore – Portland, OR

Filed in The Galleries — April 17, 2026

Katie + Michael’s engagement session at Powells Bookstore + Tanner Springs Park was such a sweet reflection of their story. We started at Powell’s Books in Portland, the same place where Michael proposed, which made that part of the session feel especially meaningful and personal. This bookstore is absolutely iconic and an absolute favorite of mine. I am a big reader so it was a challenge for me to remain focused on their session without my eyes wandering to the shelves.

From there, we headed to Tanner Springs Park for a different pace, with a mix of greenery, city textures, and quiet corners that gave their photos such a romantic, relaxed feel. It was the perfect blend of sentimental and playful, and such a fun way to document this season of their relationship in two spots that felt so true to them.

Their gallery was a perfect blend of digital + portra 400 film.

K+M’s engagement session was apart of their wedding package. My engagement sessions start at $550 and include:

  • multiple coverage options: from mini sessions, to standard 2 hour sessions, to full on adventures!
  • digital and film coverage
  • custom estimates for every couple
  • two photographers for the larger sessions
  • location research and styling guide
  • planned meetings, questionnaires, and more!

Let’s capture your love as it is today.
