Portland Oregon is such a beautiful place! So many parks and places that I enjoy visiting not just as a photographer but also just to have a simple stroll with my family. Everybody loves outdoor photos with their families especially during Spring, Summer and even Fall! In my case, I usually get more clients want indoor photography during Winter especially those with very young babies. There's so many parks in Portland Oregon, but here's some that I usually recommend to my clients. Sample photos to be posted soon!
