Portland Engagement Photos
The Portland Waterfront, specifically the Eastbank Esplanade, is a major attraction to photographers and engaged couples alike. No where else in the city can you get that gorgeous Portland skyline silhouetted in quite the same way. The challenge as a Portland engagement photographer is how to shoot at the same location multiple times and still have […]
We were laughing together during this Oregon Gardens Engagement session that Sara + Jered were harnessing their inner “Ralph Lauren” model. Because, gee, they really did nail it. It was such a pleasure to spend the afternoon with these two. They bring out the best in each other. Jered is all man, happy to accommodate […]
Chelsea and Kevin chose the Portland Waterfront as the ideal location for their engagement.

I feel so lucky to have amazing couples who are head-over-heels, hold-onto-your-boots in love with each other. It’s […]
I’m always trying to push myself to take a photo I’ve never taken before. This Urban Portland engagement shoot was the perfect chance to put that goal into practice. From the recesses of Hotel Lucia to the top of the parking garage it was a fantastic afternoon together. The minute I met Christine and Alexander (Aka […]
Portland Engagement photos are one of my favorite shoot sessions. There are so many gorgeous locations to shoot in Portland for your Portland engagement session. If you’re looking for rustic, romantic outdoor engagement photos- then Powell Butte is your spot. It’s like stepping into a wild-life reserve, minus the wildlife. I always secretly imagine that Johnny […]

FAVOURITES
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way.
WE ARE SOULMATES
WHY we're the perfect match
"Christa, you are such a delight to work with. You bring so much energy and direction to a photo shoot. The photographs you take, are truly a reflection of your talent and passion in photography."
"you bring so much energy
and direction to a photo shoot...."
"Christa is incredible. She really gets to know you, makes you feel comfortable and takes fabulous photos. Christa took our engagement photos, did a boudoir photo shoot for kate and did our wedding. We couldn't be happier with her.
"Christa is professional, fun, creative and in touch with her clients. She makes everyone look and feel beautiful. We could not be happier with her and her work."

work.."

Long before I was engaged, I knew I wanted Christa Taylor Photography to capture the special moments of my wedding. She more than met our expectations, and seldom a month goes by without somebody telling us how gorgeous our wedding pictures turned out!
Working with Christa is like finding some awesome girlfriend who completely gets you and can show you the beauty in whatever project you're undertaking. I recommend her to every bride I work with! Thank you, Christa, for your incredible work!

Christa is absolutely PHENOMENAL! My husband and I are beyond blessed to have had her capture our day! She was so great at directing people kindly and having fun too! She's a blast and we enjoyed the day more because of her! We loved getting to know her and she even had us to her home the week after our wedding for a brief photo shoot since the weather had been bad on the wedding day...she really went above and WAY beyond the call of a photographer and became our friend! She's the type we'd schedule a photo shoot with simply to see her and catch up!! There are not words to reccomend Christa highly enough! 💕We love you Christa!!
