We hired Sound’s Original for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From our first meeting, they were incredibly responsive and provided great advice on the timeline. The website had guidelines that were extremely helpful. They have templates that make it smooth to organize photo taking. On the big day, Taylor and Ramzi arrived early and seamlessly blended in with our guests while capturing beautiful candid moments. They must us feel confident and had tons of fun during the photos! They managed to capture all the little details we spent so much time planning. The final photos were delivered quickly and the quality is outstanding.We love our photos so much! Overall, we felt that the investment was worth every penny, and we highly recommend Sound’s Original to any couple looking for a talented and professional photographer!

We cannot recommend Leah enough! From start to finish, she captured every moment of our perfect wedding day and even the day after exploring in the breathtaking Yellowstone national park. As a couple who had never had professional photos taken, we were nervous at first, but Leah immediately made us feel comfortable and at ease. Her talent, professionalism, and genuine warmth shone through in every shot. The photos perfectly reflect the joy, love, and magic of our wedding, and we will treasure them forever. Leah truly went above and beyond, and working with her was an absolute dream!

Venture Ever After

Portland, OR
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + adventure weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people have the wedding of their dreams in magical outdoor spaces. When you choose to elope, you’re choosing to get married free of society’s wedding day expectations. So go wild! Spend the entire day in your favorite place, with your favorite person. Wear a fancy outfit, or wear your hiking boots. Invite your dog instead of your mom’s second cousin. Share your first kiss under the stars instead of under an altar. In the great outdoors, you write the wedding rules. And I’m here to help make it an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we began looking for a photographer for our micro-wedding, we gravitated towards Nadia’s images over and over again. Not only did they capture raw, intimate moments between couples and families, but they elevated those moments in elegant and natural landscapes of the PNW; everything we wanted. We reached out and set up a consultation call immediately. We were initially nervous and felt very unprepared to speak with photographers because we had zero ideas for what our special day would look like, but after our call with Nadia we were confident that Venture Ever After was the right choice for us. She was so knowledgeable and did a TON of legwork planning our timeline to best capture the moments we wanted in the lighting we needed, recommending a variety of locations for some private moments as a couple and group activities with our family, and keeping us grounded and calm throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, Nadia took the reigns and gently guided us through the day with compassion and grace. She constantly reminded us that each moment was for us and encouraged us to revel in all of the details. She even conquered some pretty crazy heights armed with multiple cameras and a walky-talky to capture some dramatic and beautiful couple’s portraits. Beyond being an incredible photographer, Nadia is one of the most genuine and kind people I’ve met. She has a knack for keeping elopement/wedding day energy light and helping her clients feel natural in front of the camera. My partner and I truly felt like models. I feel so blessed to have our wedding photographed by her and, above all, be able to call her a friend. I would recommend Nadia at Venture Ever After to everyone planning an elopement, wedding, or adventure in the PNW. In fact, I hope to be able to visit her and capture anniversaries and momentous occasions for our family long into the future.

Hi, I’m Kyle. I’m Northwest born, Portland based, and like to think that I have pines trees sprouting from my skin and sun-soaked glacial runoff coursing through my veins. Aside from photographing weddings, I enjoy strenuous hikes with a view as much as indie flicks, comic books, carving powdery slopes, rock climbing, and Trail Blazers games. I like to share these details because I strongly believe that connecting with the couples I collaborate with is integral to the creative process of photographing a wedding. A strong connection will result in the best images possible.

Awarded Best of Zola
We reached out to Kyle after he did such a great job with our friends’ wedding photos a couple years ago. When we contacted him, he was very responsive. At our first meeting, he was enthusiastic, organized, and asked all kinds of questions to better understand our vision. The day of the ceremony, he helped us add structure to our pre-ceremony process by nailing down clear portrait timelines for each of us. He has an upbeat and easy-going attitude, which helped both of us feel comfortable while posing for portraits. And further, he clearly has a great eye and improvises well, because he was able to incorporate what might have otherwise looked like a mundane neighborhood setting into beautifully lit, unique photos. Kyle took all kinds of creative, moment-catching candid shots during our ceremony and reception that we couldn’t be happier with. When we showed our wedding photos to friends and family afterwards, they consistently expressed surprise and delight at how Kyle was able to capture so many nuanced moments without being intrusive. TL;DR: We love all of our wedding photos and are so grateful to Kyle for sharing his talents with us! If you’re looking for someone who is detail-oriented and ready to celebrate with you, we highly recommend Kyle!

Hello! I'm Robert. This is me. Let me tell you a bit about who I am and what I do. Love for photography, ​I am very passionate about working with my camera. If I am creating a little photo for myself that is never seen publicly or a project for a client, I put everything I have into making the photography I create as best I possibly can. Every click of the shudder is an opportunity for creating amazing photography. Every photo-shoot has options for photographs waiting to be found. Solving these puzzles with my camera and lighting is a lot of fun for me. I believe you can see that also. That's why you are here looking at my work now.

Robert is fabulous to work with, our photos are wonderful and we could not be happier.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

My name is Katelyn, I’m 26, and I’m based out of the Portland, Oregon area! I am beautifully, unapologetically, and loudly queer, and my pronouns are she/her. On any given day, you can find me meditating and reading by the water somewhere. I’m deeply into all things spiritual—moon phases, energy work, astrology, you name it—and I try to bring that sense of intention and magic into everything I do. Photography has been my outlet, my healing space and my rebellion for as long as i can remember. But I am inspired by all forms of art. I write poetry, I paint, I make pottery. I love making playlists.

t me start off with saying I inquired with Katelyn before I even secured my wedding venue because I HAD to have her capture my wedding day. She was the first vendor I booked. She immediately felt like a friend, and once my day arrived and we finally met, I felt like I’ve known her forever. I fell in love with her photos and her artistic eye and I anxiously awaited my wedding day because I knew she was going to capture it better than I could imagine. You can feel the emotions just by looking at each photo, as if they’re telling you the story right out of a book. When it came to my wedding day she kept asking the vibe, the mood, what I did like, what I didn’t like for photos, but I didn’t want to give any direction because I knew I could fully trust her and her vision. No matter what is in front of her lens, she’s going to capture it in the most creative and beautiful way possible. My wedding was just a few days ago and she already had a handful of photos ready and edited so exquisitely that it made me, my husband, my family and my friends tear up all over again, just like we were there reliving the moment over again. I never doubted or questioned for a moment that anything would be missed or not photographed to tell the whole story because if you so much just look at her instagram, you know that she puts all her passion into every single one of her photos. She wants to show the world your love story thru each photo and make sure that when you look back on them that each one is a small glimpse into the emotions and all the love that filled the air that day. I will recommend Katelyn, Yara and her team to any and everyone for the rest of my life. My special day was beyond perfect and I am so grateful that Katelyn and her team were apart of it. I will cherish my day, our friendship and my photos for the rest of my life. We love you Katelyn!! Love, Jordan & Seth

Wedding photography that's all about you. alyson levy PHOTOGRAPHY specializes in creating gorgeous images that tell your unique love story. I rely on years of experience and an artist's eye to capture crucial moments without drawing focus, creating heirloom quality photographs that sparkle with humor and emotion.

Alyson was so lovely to work with. From the beginning, she offered suggested shot lists, encouraged us to look at other wedding photos in order to get an idea of things we wanted to capture, and overall had a comprehensive organized approach to our wedding. Alyson delivered on all of her photography promises - I had spotted a photo from a past wedding she shot that I loved - it was a black and white photo of the bride and groom walking down the aisle. Alyson captured their happiness and love in the shot and I just adored the photo - I asked if she could try to capture a similar moment in our wedding and she did. I love looking back to that photo, she caught one of the happiest moments of my life. On the day of our wedding, Alyson fit in seamlessly with the day, she was there to take photos around us, without making the day about her or her shots. Because of her organization, she caught the posed photos we asked for (including being able to round up my very large family) and all of the candids I love looking back on. Our wedding was in 2010, but since, she has also shot our maternity and newborn photos, as well as being the photographer at one of my best friends weddings (who loved my wedding photos so much she hired Alyson, too). Alyson is really able to capture moments and the people going on in the day - she's a fantastic photographer.

I wish I could rate higher than 5 stars! Jamie was absolutely AMAZING!!! Everything I could of asked for and more. Myself and my (now) Husband decided to elope from Birmingham AL to Oregon. We had never been to the state before so planning was a little nerve racking. After meeting with Jamie for a Zoom call, I immediately had stress taken off me. She was perfect at capturing exactly what I was looking for and finding the most beautiful spot to have our ceremony. I received my sneak peaks back while still being on my honeymoon and got to fall in love with her work! I highly recommend and I can not say enough to express how grateful I am that she was apart of our day.

Crystal of Crystal Genes Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding. Her communication style is direct, kind, and informative which made the awkwardness we both feel behind the lens of a camera melt away. The quality and uniqueness of her work is exceptional - she has a true talent for capturing emotional moments with beautiful composition and lighting. On our rainy wedding day, Crystal came prepared with umbrellas and tirelessly worked throughout the event to suggesting backdrops and decor for stunning photos. She is professional, confident, and capable with a passion for her craft that shines through. I wholeheartedly recommend Crystal to any couple looking for a photographer who will help make your wedding memories as special as the day itself.

We are Eric and Amber, a husband and wife wedding photography team with a different story than most. Both of us actually had our own established wedding photography businesses, with years of experience behind us, before we ever met. We found each other at a wedding professionals networking meeting, fell in love, on Valentines Day, no less, and got married 2 years later. Along the way, we merged our 2 businesses into Sightglass Photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
We could not have asked for a better photography team than Amber and Eric! We met them at a friend's wedding, and so loved their vibes and the pictures they captured from our friend's special day. So, when we decided to have our own re-do wedding, we reached out to them immediately. They have been so easy to work with, so much fun, and so professional. They also really took our wishes into consideration, which I really appreciated. For example, we were clear from the outset that we cared the most about getting a million pictures from the dancing at our wedding, and we didn't much care about getting ready pictures. They delivered so hard, and were in the middle of the action all night long, and my husband and I going to treasure these pictures until we die. We also got our photos less than 6 weeks later, which was wonderful. Having now seen their photos from two separate and very different weddings, I am pretty positive that Amber and Eric can do anything, and will do a fantastic job of capturing what makes a particular wedding special. We would hire them again in a heartbeat if we ever decide to do yet another re-do wedding.

There are many reasons couples choose not to have a “traditional” wedding, and the beauty is that you can make it anything you want it to be – and that’s also why I care so deeply about making sure every couple I work with knows that their day is important, beautiful, and deserves to be captured so you can look back on every detail. Hi! My name is Anna– I am an elopement and wedding photographer helping adventurous couples say “I do” on their own terms from coast to coast.

Anna is so sweet, caring, and a great communicator. As a wedding planner, it was great to work with her and she captured the beauty of the venue so well. The portraits and couple photos are stunning. Would definitely recommend her!

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Helen, a truly exceptional photographer who has beautifully captured every milestone in our lives — from our wedding day to maternity, newborn, and family sessions. From the very beginning, Helen impressed us with her warm personality, professionalism, and an eye for detail that goes far beyond just taking pictures. She doesn’t just shoot photos — she captures moments, emotions, and memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Our wedding photos were beyond stunning — elegant, emotional, and full of joy. She was discreet yet always present, catching the little in-between moments that made the day uniquely ours. We received so many compliments on how natural and heartfelt the photos felt, and it’s all thanks to Helen’s talent and intuition. During our maternity shoot, Helen made us feel comfortable, confident, and completely at ease, even in our most vulnerable moments. She found the perfect balance between artistry and authenticity — highlighting the beauty of the experience in such an effortless way. The newborn session was where Helen’s patience and gentle nature really shone. She was incredible with our baby — soothing, calming, and respectful of the pace we needed. The results were absolutely magical, filled with tenderness and love. Most recently, our family session felt like a relaxed afternoon with an old friend — and somehow, amidst the chaos of kids being kids, Helen delivered images full of life, laughter, and connection. Every photo tells a story. What we value most about Helen is her ability to see people — to truly understand what matters to each family or couple, and to bring that to life through her lens. Her style is timeless, her editing is impeccable, and her passion for what she does comes through in every frame. We can’t recommend Helen highly enough. She’s not just our photographer — she’s now part of our family’s story, and we’re so grateful for everything she’s given us.

Professional photographer, lover of natural light, traveler, adventurer, happy wife and a dreamer! I fell in love with photography when my dad gave me his old film camera from a dusty box he had uncovered in our garage one spring cleaning day, and I have enjoyed taking photos ever since. I have travelled the world with my backpack, camera and trusty Apple laptop from Europe to India and South East Asia learning and being enriched by all the wonderful different cultures.

My husband and I found Kate at a wedding show!She had great energy and the portfolios were gorgeous. I saw everything I had been looking for in a wedding photographer and knew I had to reach out. We got to have a meeting with Dom to go over our options and decided to book Gabby for our wedding day. Kate and Dom were both incredible with communication and organization. They made it so Gabby knew exactly what we wanted. I cannot say enough good things about Gabby! She is kind, funny, never makes you feel awkward in front of the camera, and knows how to keep people laughing and smiling. Gabby did our engagement photos and our wedding photos.

While I’ll guide you with poses, ideal backdrops, and the best lighting, my goal is to allowing you to fully enjoy the celebration without feeling staged or interrupted.

I’m a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I’ve documented hundreds of couples’ love stories over the past 13+ years, traveling all over the United States and beyond, and it has been one of the biggest honors of my life. I received my degree in photojournalism in 2010 and chose to pursue documenting love instead of local and world news events, but my background in photojournalism greatly guides how I approach my duty as a wedding photographer. I always strive to capture the day how it happened: the love, the laughter and the tears. I want you to look back at your wedding images for decades to come with joy and pride.

From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is incredibly passionate about her craft and truly cares about the people she photographs. She was so patient with us during our engagement shoot, and made such an effort to know all the tiny details of our wedding. An entire paragraph could be written on how talented she is, but her gorgeous images speak for themselves! She makes magic happen at weddings, catching all the details and in-between moments, and delivers such beautifully authentic photographs. It was a lovely experience working with her, and so reassuring to know that, through an already stressful time, we were in good hands. Thank you, Maria, for capturing all the love at our wedding!

Bria was great about communicating and getting to know us prior to our shoot date! It truly felt like we were just hanging out with an old friend. Fast forward to 2020 when we learned our wedding would have to be cancelled due to COVID. Again, Bria was wonderful in her communication and we were able to shift gears and turn our would be wedding into an elopement shoot. Bria and Andrew are going to continue with us in our journey as we throw our big bash in 2022! Our photographs are absolutely STUNNING. Her style is very candid -- doesn't feel too pose-y. We got so many great shots at both of our events. She also works with GREAT local businesses for prints. We are absolutely in love with our gallery wall and our albums. Such high quality. Briana Morrison Photography is worth every penny and then some!

I live in Portland with my little family and I am thankful every day that I get to do something I love as a full time career. I got my BFA in photography from California College of the Arts in 2009, and started shooting weddings shorty after that. I believe there is so much magic in a photograph. It allows something to keep on existing, even after it’s gone. I strive to capture moments authentically but cleverly, using light, color and composition to make things compelling and beautiful. I try to be as candid as possible and use very minimal posing; taking a photojournalistic approach whenever I can.

The photos came out more beautiful than we could have imagined. Not only is Terra talented, but also she is a joy to work with. Terra has a fun-loving energy about her and will make you feel comfortable from the start.

Hello there! I’m Amy. My roots are here in the PNW, (Edmonds, Washington to be exact) but I spent most of my life in Texas waiting for the day when I could move my family home to the northwest. I have 5 sons (yep, 5!) and have to pinch myself when I think about my amazing family and this career that has taken my husband and I all over the world. I value experience and relationships over material things, and work mostly with couples who are planning smaller weddings or elopements. After 12 years and 300+ weddings, I’ve learned that connection and authenticity are essential to who I am, and the way that I work.

Awarded Best of Zola
I work in the creative industry and know lots of photographers. For our wedding and annual family portraits, we have only hired Amy.

Timeless over trendy has always been my mantra with wedding photography. I’m Natalie, a Portland, Oregon wedding photographer. I've been photographing weddings and families for over ten years, and my focus is on human connection. The simplest moments, the ones that aren't orchestrated or directed, are the ones you'll want to remember forever.

As a coordinator, finding amazing photography partners is key! Natalie is professional, so talented and such a delight to work with on the day! Highly recommend her and love every time I get to work with her!

Hi I'm Lauren! Just a photo loving southern California gal currently calling the PNW home. I live for late nights and early mornings, always ready for the next adventure. I grew up wanting to be a National Geographic photographer and obsessed with documentaries, which led me to photographing everything around me.

Lauren Miles Photo was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. Lauren's communication style was on point - she was very responsive, attentive to our needs and vision, and made herself readily available for any questions we had. More importantly, Lauren is simply a kind, thoughtful person who brought great energy and professionalism to our big day. She took incredible detail shots and was eager to get creative with unique photo ideas, which we loved. The final product was beautiful, high-quality wedding photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We'd enthusiastically recommend Lauren Miles Photo to any engaged couple looking for a friendly, talented wedding photographer who can balance being detail-oriented while making the process fun.

I’m a formally trained and creative photographer, originally from a little beach town on the south shore of Boston and love brought me to Oregon. I’m an easy going, small-town girl exploring this big, beautiful world, and sharing love stories along the way. I’ve always found happiness in the little things, but what I love the most are the people in my life. Whether they’re family, friends, clients or new faces, it’s all about connecting. So, being a photographer, I honestly feel blessed and honored to have a career that revolves around love, new beginnings, and happy memories.

Victoria is on our venue's list of preferred vendors. She is a talented, creative professional who is a pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend her more highly!

Choosing a photographer to capture one of the most intimate days of you and your partner’s lives is no small feat. I'm here to loudly love on ALL my couples. These are images you’ll hold onto forever and pass down for generations to come, so trust is essential. With two decades of travel experience, I’m not only comfortable navigating the intricacies of international travel but also thrive on the excitement of exploring new destinations. Whether you choose to elope with only the mountains as your witness, or have the big white wedding of your dreams, I can’t wait to celebrate your love.

Julia is the best! She has a great eye for photos. She knows how to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera. She took our photos for our court house wedding and we hired her to do our reception photos next year because we liked them so much. If you’re looking for someone who can capture your special moments she is a great option. Her pricing is very reasonable. Also she is just easy and fun to work with! She really went above and beyond. Thank you Julia!
