Oregon Coast Session | The Erics

Y’all! I have been dying to blog this session. And introduce you to some of my dear friends - the Erics. Yes - they are both named Eric. From here on out I will call the Eric in the salmon colored shirt - “Hutch.” I met Hutch a while back and he is just one of those top notch, adventurous, kind loving people. He is a leader in his community and longs for depth. He provides a safe place for the people around him and I kid you not - there are over a handful of people who consider Hutch their best friend. We went on this Oregon trip with the Eric’s and Hutch is like a little kid going to Disney Land - but with every turn in the hike or beach we pull up to or ice cream cone from the Tillimook factory. He is present and full of life.

Then he met Eric. And I have never seen someone so in love and for sure about another person from day one. I hesitated because we can all get out of hand when it comes to “feelings” but then I met Eric. And was like - YES OK AGREE YOU MUST GET MARRIED. Eric is steady, confident, sincere and completely aware of the people around him. He lights up when Hutch is around or when you even mention his name. He is accomplished and successful and will be at anything he does. Including his relationships. He has shared parts about his story that make you trust he is the real deal.

Our first stop was Canon Beach of course. We played in the sand, found some star fish and then grabbed some clam chowder and white wine before heading back on the road.

Our second stop was spontaneous - we wanted to watch the sunset on the beach in Pacific City and I still had my camera! So I snapped a few more of these love birds. How could I not?!

The world is so much better because these two met and fell in love. And I hope that this blog post gives you a tiny glimpse of the real emotion and happiness these two have brought each other.
