Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

Afterglow Photography

  • Serves McMinnville, OR

Hey I'm Liz! I've been in business as a wedding and portrait photographer since 2015, and have had a camera in my hand since the days before digital. After nine years in the industry my brain is absolutely full of specific knowledge I can only use for weddings, so please please use me as a resource. I live outside Portland with my Husband, kids, dog and cat. In my free time you can find me at a Mexican restaurant, a Movie Theater, or in any body of water. As an aging Millennial I've also recently gotten into retirement hobbies like birding and gardening.

Awarded Best of Zola
Liz was so easy to work with. She took our engagement photos and wedding photos. During our wedding planning session as a bride I was all over the place but she was able to help figure out photos that were needed and set a timeline with me. On the day of our wedding, it seemed that time sped up and there was a million things to do. As our timeline didn’t go as planned, most weddings don’t, Liz was able to think on her feet and get a new timeline so we were able to get all of our shots in that we wanted and still be able to enjoy our wedding, dancing, guest and each other. After getting our photos back many of our family and friends mentioned how wonderful Liz was, her attention to detail and how they would love to use her in the future. Whenever we talk about future photo shoots that we want, Liz is always brought up and will be the first to call when we need new photos!

  • Photojournalistic style

Photography has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. To capture a single moment while telling a beautiful love story is something I will cherish forever. I'm a born and raised oregonian. I love the outdoors. Most days you can find me at the local coffee shop, working out, or going thrift shopping. I love trail running, kayaking, and traveling.

As a wedding planner, I’ve enjoyed working with Kara. She produces such beautiful work—I love the aesthetic, modern vibe, and composition of her photos. She is super relaxed and goes with the flow, which helps keep the day running smoothly. She is a photographer I recommend to my clients!

Venture Ever After

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves McMinnville, OR

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.

Just here to show off Myrtle Creative Co. Photography with Ann Marie! We recently got our sneak peaks back from our wedding July 2024. We had a multi-day event in and near North Cascades.

We had met up virtually with many other photographers before picking her! She was very helpful throughout the planning process, helped with advice on my indecisiveness and helped think of things no one else did day of and during the planning. Not to mention her talent (see attached!!) I have 0 complaints and only raves about our experience.

Every individual has a unique tale, and mine is quite the whirlwind! When I was 5, my family left our Michigan home and has been on the move ever since. After living across the globe, I now proudly call Oregon my home sweet home with my wonderful husband, our sweet daughter, and our White German Shepherd! My journey toward becoming a wedding photographer is fueled by my romantic spirit, hope for deep connections, and wandering the world in pursuit of love. The idea of spreading love near and far, and passing on that love through generations puts a smile on my face every day.

It is very obvious that Lauren is so passionate about what she does. My husband feels awkward in front of the camera but she did a great job with keeping it fun. You would never be able to tell he was awkward by the way the pictures came out, she did fantastic. Thank you Lauren for capturing such beautiful photos that we will cherish forever!

Adventure Stories Photo & Video

Our story began with our mutual love of craft beer at a small brewery in Portland, Oregon. We met on a double-blind date, and while our friends and the other half of the date never spoke again, we never stopped talking (and yes, pickup lines involving beer do work, apparently!). Even though craft beer can strengthen just about any relationship, our shared love of adventure sealed the deal.

We hired Adventure Stories for both their photography and videography services for our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made! We enjoyed working with both Megan and Vishnu every step of the wedding planning process. From our first emails, to the actual day of the wedding, Megan and Vishnu were both friendly and professional. We had to work through many changes to our wedding due to Covid-19, and Megan and Vishnu were there to help and support us through every change. When we had questions or requests, Megan and Vishnu were there to help us, and were very flexible and caring. We appreciate the careful consideration they take when approaching each couple and client's story, that was one of the things that set them apart for us. Megan and Vishnu very much focus on telling your story! Their work is not only extremely beautiful, but is created with the couple/client in mind. We could not recommend Adventure Stories more, and we highly suggest hiring them as a pair, as they were a joy to work with as a couple!

As a photographer, my ultimate goal is to create images that have that same “time machine” effect. I aim to capture moments that can be relived through a single photograph: the smell of your newborn's hair, the softness of their ears, or the pounding of your heart on your wedding day. I want my work to serve you for a lifetime, in ways you might not expect. It's an honor to be part of your story, and I hope my work will touch your family’s lives for generations.

SK Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first interaction, her bubbly and easy-going communication style put us at ease and made the entire process feel effortless. The quality of their work was truly magical - the photos they captured were euphoric and top-notch, as if they had three people working simultaneously to document every moment. They adapted seamlessly with us as needed, making us feel like we were the only ones that mattered in that special moment. Once you hire SK Photography, you'll never want to use anyone else for your photography needs. We couldn't recommend them more highly!

Awarded Best of Zola
George Street Photography exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day even better than we could have hoped. From the start, they had us take a quiz to see which style of photography we liked most. Then, they gave us options of photographers that meet those criteria. Then, the photographers communicate with you directly and you fill out a form with all the details of your big day (and there were some things I probably would have forgotten without this!) They were extremely communicative and helped ease any concerns along the way. Not to mention, the price for not one but TWO photographers for my entire wedding was unbeatable! Our photographers were seriously the best and added so much life to our party! Towards the end of the night, one of our photographers, Jose, was on the dance floor with us being completely immersed and getting pictures that reflect exactly what it was like to be on that dance floor! And, we received all our pictures back in LESS THAN TWO WEEKS! This is absolutely unheard of, and was a great surprise! I will recommend George Street to all of my friends and family, and honestly anyone that will listen! They were absolutely incredible.

I am SO excited that you stumbled upon my work! I shoot weddings all across New England! Capturing raw, true emotions as they happen is what I’m all about. I want to capture it all on your big day. From the moments of you putting your dress to the tears running down your face as you read your vows to each other. To the first kiss and “OMG you’re my spouse now!!” feels. To the unexpected Taco Bell run you make after the ceremony or your grandparents getting down on the dance floor. Being able to grab the moments for you to hold to forever, is such a rewarding humbling job for me.

Gloria is AMAZING!!!!! She was one of the first vendors we booked for our 2024 wedding, and from the first phone call, it was clear that we made the right decision. She understood our vision immediately as we described what we were hoping for from our wedding photos. The day of the wedding, she was a fly on the wall for so many candids, knew when to give direction, and when to hang back. Her work speaks for itself, but the fact that she is also kind, creative, and so easy to work with was really the icing on the cake. We will treasure these photos for the rest of our lives.
