We couldn’t have had a more beautiful day with Dao and Minh for their Lavender Valley Engagement Photos in Hood River, Oregon. The excitement was high since none of us have ever visited the Lavender Valley Farms. The lavender fragrance, rich purple shades, buzzing bees, bright blue sky, and magnificent view of Mt. Hood was stunning. Mid-July proved to be the perfect time as the lavender was in full bloom.
The sun was setting just right offering all the dramatic light to cast across the lavender fields with strong shadows and highlights. Bees were humming like a harmonizing orchestra. Luckily the bees were drunk with pollen as we got in close to the lavender with our lenses, even captured a bee between Dao and Minh as they walked hand and hand through the fields. If you are looking for a great setting for engagement photos, do Lavender Valley engagement photos. This is the spot!
The more we followed these two around the more we witnessed how playful and connected they are. In our earlier conversations, we learned that their love languages are spending quality time together and acts of service. So spot on. They live fully. Every other month they find excuses to go on vacation together. Their top two destinations so far have been Tokyo and Hamburg, Germany. They love to eat food from all over. Dao is a local foodie influencer, and they love going out to venture and discover new places to eat.
Dao and Minh let us know how excited they are for us to capture cinematic and “in the moment” captures. When they look back at their engagement and wedding photos they want to feel like they can travel back in time to the most important and beautiful day of their lives where their most important people are there happy and celebrating with them.
Dao and Minh will be getting married on September 4th, 2021 for an outside ceremony at Greg Gables Estate in Portland surrounded by 200 of their closest family and friends.
