Multnomah Falls


If you ever get the chance to come to Oregon
the Columbia Gorge is a must on your list

The Multnomah Falls are the most popular
falls along the stretch but there are a lot
of falls that are just as great but don't get
the praise as they should...

Just make sure that you have a full day to
spend as some of the falls are so pretty
that you will want to spend some extra
time just in awe.

The Veiwpoint Inn


I had the oppertunity to photograph The Viewpoint Inn
located in the amazing Columbia Gorge in Oregon..

The Viewpoint Inn is a great place for a nice dinner
or a weekend getaway with the one you love..

If you didn't know The Viewpoint Inn was the location
of the prom in the movie "Twilight"
