Columbia River Gorge June Engagement Sanjana + Sheldon

My favorite time of year is the two or so weeks surrounding the longest day of the year, when the daylight pushes the starlight far into the evening. We packed up with dresses and button-down shirts and left the city traffic behind for a few hour’s drive into the Columbia River gorge with it’s raging waterfalls and windy vistas. After quick hikes at Latourell Falls and Rowena Crest, we enjoyed a hearty late meal and beer tasting at pFriem Family Brewers in Hood River.

The last bits of green are soon to fade to the dry summer of the high desert.

It’s Father’s day and Sanjana waits for her love to join her field.
