An Oregon Coast Elopement

Kristy and Logan have travelled the world together. Fate brought these two together while touring across Europe years ago. The day of their elopement was special. There was a sense of spontaneity and relaxation to it all. The location on the Oregon coast was decided a couple days before and the spontaneity of their “up-for-anything” attitude made the shoot fun. They ended their elopement shoot with a backdrop of Cannon Beach, a glow of sunset, and a run into the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean as newlyweds.

They knew a mountain elopement is what they wanted.

Obsidian Trail Backpacking

I can’t think of anything better than spending the longest day of the year exploring the backcountry of the Three Sisters Wilderness on the Obsidian Trail. The trail is around 12 miles out and back and 2,000 feet in elevation gain. . It is always a treat to check out new areas of the Pacific Crest Trail. I had great company and stunning scenery all around, and even introduced a surf friend to her first backpacking experience!
