We discovered Leah on Zola, and right from our first conversation, we knew she was the one. Her experience and artistic eye were exactly what we wanted to capture our dream wedding. Leah made the whole process stress-free with her clear communication and warm personality. On the big day, Leah walked into a whirlwind of activity, but she calmly focused and started capturing the magic. She helped me stay relaxed and assured me everything would be perfect – I'll never forget that. Leah's photos are simply breathtaking. She's a true artist who captured every detail just as I imagined. She made sure we had time for portraits, but also caught those spontaneous, joyful moments that made our day so special. We are beyond thrilled with the photos Leah delivered. The cherry on top was seeing how excited Leah was at the wedding – she even quickly edited a photo on the spot! It showed she was genuinely invested in our happiness. Can't wait to work with Leah again for our future big life-moments!

Venture Ever After

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,400
  • Serves Dayton, WA

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + intimate weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people in love 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Douglas was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding on 08/17/24. Our original wedding photographer cancelled two weeks before our wedding, and a friend recommended we reach out to Doug. He was thankfully available and from the moment we reached out, he was so easy to communicate with - always quick to respond, extremely accommodating, and so easy-going. His work has been absolutely beautiful, he has an amazing understanding of light, composition, and framing with a lot of experience working with outdoor conditions that truly captured the essence of our special day. Doug fit right in with our wedding - he showed up early, stayed late, and somehow (while just following the standard schedule of the day) managed to get the most incredible true lighting and color in *all* of our photos - everything feels exactly like the day itself felt. We couldn't be happier with the results and would without a doubt recommend Douglas R Hall Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Definitely one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. We had Ann Marie do our engagement photos and we loved her from the start and loved how they came out. We were devastated when we found out she was already booked for our wedding date, but she got us set up with one of her associates Elena at a discounted rate. Even though she wasn't going to be there on our big day she still put in so much effort to help us decide the timeline and the shot list. She kept in contact with us the whole time and really made us feel confident about the big day. She will still be doing the editing in her style and we are absolutely thrilled with the sneak peek shots we've gotten so far! She even threw in an extra photographer for us for free which was incredibly kind of her, although unfortunately that photographer was sick on the day of the wedding so we still ended up with just one. But Elena was great and made us feel totally at ease and got every shot on the list. She kept everything running on time despite the timeline having been created for two photographers. Ann Marie and Elena were a dream team to work with and I can't say enough good things about them.

I found Kristina on the Zola website and quickly reached out to her hoping she had availability for my wedding date. She was very easy to work with and commented often to make sure she knew what we wanted from our wedding day. She includes an engagement session in all of her contracts so that your wedding day isn't the first time she has you in front of her camera. We had to cancel our session due to unforeseen circumstances, but she rolled with the changes and instead we booked a post wedding session. Kristina made sure she took the time to meet with us prior to our wedding day so we could get to know one another and be comfortable while getting our photos taken. She delivered all our photos on time and they are simply gorgeous. She took all of our input and requests and turned them into something perfect. I would highly recommend Arch and Elm photography.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

Hi friends! My name is Olivia! I believe that weddings + couple’s sessions are a chance to allow you to connect deeper with each other & celebrate your once-in-a-lifetime moments. My social adaptability is one of my superpowers as a photographer because I can easily cultivate an environment that allows my clients to feel comfortable genuinely expressing their love to each other. Your love story deserves to be captured and you deserve to have fun doing it!

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working with Olivia twice this summer. She is sweet and calm but can also work quickly and efficiently to ensure she is capturing all of the important moments. My favorite moment this summer was supporting her during sunset photos at a vineyard. She was able to guide the couple through some quick cues, but also knew some of their favorite poses they were most comfortable with. It was a perfect balance of both and the photos turned out wonderful! I would absolutely love to work with Olivia again!

I have had the great pleasure of working with Kayla and Rochelle of Old Growth Photo Co on several weddings as a fellow vendor and on the other end of things when Kayla took really beautiful couple's portraits for me and my partner! I am always impressed by the way they interact with their clients, making them feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera. I also appreciate their communication and their ability to work seamlessly with other vendors, such as myself as a wedding makeup artist. I immediately get excited when I see my cients have listed them as their photographer or videographer as they are one of my very favorite vendors to work along side. It makes the wedding day run much more smoothly, and the end result is always stunning! Overall, I highly recommend Old Growth Photo Co to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer for their wedding.

Hey there! I'm Ally, owner of Ally Marie Photo. I'm based in small town Eastern Oregon, and I completely adore it. Family, mountains, valley, big open skies, grassy fields.. a dream! However, being from a small town, I have a huge appreciation for the city & love to visit it's colorful, vibrant life. My small business started about two years ago and it's been growing ever since! My natural style is timeless, a perfect, unique mix of contemporary and vintage photography. I'm drawn towards capturing in a photojournalistic way: telling a story, rather than simply documenting an event.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ally was an incredible photographer for our wedding last summer. Ally got all the shots I asked her to get, plus some fantastic candids. Ally was prompt at getting the photos back to us in a timely manner and very professional with her work. I would recommend Ally for any photography occasion.

The quality of their work is excellent - they captured thoughtful, personal moments throughout our wedding day, including many candid photos of our friends and family. Kat had planned the timing for our couples photos in advance, and it all went very smoothly. The engagement shoot was also fun and helped us get more comfortable in front of the camera, which was great since we had never done professional couples photos before. We are thrilled with the results and would highly recommend Kat Green Media to any couple planning their wedding.

The Lovers Wild

  • Serves Dayton, WA

My clients are a little different, as they tend to stray away from the norm and make their own rules. They love the details, but care more so about making memories on the first day of their marriage. The wedding day timeline is full of things important to them, not what society says they should have. Their love is a celebration of emotional connections with friends and family, wiping away tears when the moment gets the best of them, and dancing their asses off with no care as to who sees. So, if you connect with all this, then I am definitely your kind of photographer. LOVE = LOVE, all are welcome here!

Awarded Best of Zola
I would 100% recommend Erin as an engagement/wedding photographer. Her work blew me away when I viewed her portfolio online, but it was our first phone conversation that really sealed the deal! She's down-to-earth and genuine while also being meticulous and thorough in the planning process. She understood the look we were going for with our historic-themed wedding and absolutely nailed it. I can't believe we booked her for the price we did and got such two astounding collections of photos! Can't wait to work with her again!

Hi! I'm Lauren, but you can call me Ren. It's so great to meet you! I've had the privilege of photographing love and connection for the past six years, and I still smile when I tell people that this is my job—because it’s never felt like one. Being invited into such intimate and vulnerable moments is something I don't take lightly. I’m not just here to take pretty photos; any photographer can do that. I want to create an experience that genuinely reflects your love story and helps you remember what it felt like to love deeply in this moment, right now.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Ren for our small courthouse ceremony on Whidbey island and I was seriously blown away. She is so thoughtful, caring and TALENTED. She was very fun to work with and really wants to make sure everyone gets what they want out of the experience... but also give guidance! My husband and I both hate staged photos and were not super into the idea of professional cheesy romance photos but these are SO ROMANTIC and just pure style. Ren's style is classy and classic but also hip. We loved every moment working with Ren even though it was pouring down rain like seriously such a huge rain storm. Ren is a trooper for sure she did not complain at all about having to work in the rain and was so kind working with us as we froze our tushies off. We loved working with her so much we hired her AGAIN like 3 days later to take pictures for us at our wedding reception. Hire her for seriously any photographer needs just do it she is the absolute best and you will not regret it!

I am a wedding planning/ coordination liaison that recently worked with Jessica June for a wedding at Camp Colton . Jess was a very fantastic photographer with a pleasant, down to earth, easy-going attitude. I enjoyed chatting with her about composition and more as we toured the property/ and throughout the evening as the timeline progressed. She recently shared her images from that day, and I loved her work! Very thorough, some great creative edits, and she was able to capture wonderful expressions and heartfelt candid moments- (many guests too- not just the wedding party;) I would recommend her to be a part of your wedding day DreamTeam! (Best wishes to you as you grow your business, Jess!)

Celebrating the wholeness of life and the perfection of love I truly ask you to "stay gold"! My beautiful clients are couples of all genders, orientation, and identities who have found each other and want this moment in time captured in heirloom quality.

Tyler was amazing to work with! He captured every beautiful moment of our wedding day and the photos are such wonderful reminders of one of the very happiest days of our lives. He spent thoughtful time with us before our big day to get to know us and to make sure that we got the shots we were hoping for. Not only did we have a ton of fun with Tyler, but he took photos that are incredible and captured so many special moments. All of our guests loved him too – so much so that two of our friends couldn’t wait to hire him for their own wedding a year later!

Hey new friends! We’re Sam + Kyle elopement photographers splitting our time between the PNW and the SW in our RV. It takes a whole lot of badassery to make the decision to elope and we are very into that kind of energy. We believe in making memories and images that capture all of the big feelings, and the in-between moments that you want to relive over and over again. You know, the kind of photos that hang on your wall and make ya smile real big because you remember exactly how you felt in that moment. We are so glad that you’re here and can’t wait to run wild with you.

Sam & Kyle have been such a joy to get to watch work with other couples. Having a husband and wife team is special to begin with, but Sam and Kyle especially have a way of making couples feel comfortable and in charge of their wedding days without being distracting. These two are absolute gems as humans beings, but their technical skills in photography just take the experience to a whole new level. Sam and Kyle pour their hearts and souls into helping couples plan every portion of their day as well as into every ounce of hand-editing they do to each couple's gallery. The Dropped Pin offers a truly invaluable experience that every couple deserves on their wedding day. If I had my wedding day to do all over again, these two would no doubt be my photographers, my planning guides, and my support system on the most important day of my life.
