DESI & JULIA

- NEXT LEVEL PINBALL SHOP AND MUSEUM -

Hillsboro, OR

Desi and Julia’s two-year anniversary session took place at a local pinball arcade, which was the perfect setting because Julia absolutely loves pinball. The whole place was glowing with neon lights and the sounds of machines chiming and clacking, and the two of them leaned right into the fun of it, laughing, playing games, and competing for high scores.

They were so playful together the entire time, bumping shoulders between machines and celebrating every win like it was the biggest victory of the night. It made for such a cool and unexpected location for photos, and it felt very them.

At one point there was a disgruntled customer who clearly didn’t approve of their love. But we kept going, because their love deserves to take up space and to be seen and celebrated just like anyone else’s. They stayed focused on each other, smiling and playing and enjoying the moment together.

In the end, the arcade lights, the laughter, and their joy made the whole session feel electric. It was such a fun way to celebrate two years together, and a reminder that love belongs everywhere, even in the middle of a pinball arcade.
