Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I live in Oregon with my two cats Clara & Leonardo and about a hundred tropical plants 😆🪴 I love exploring the Pacific Northwest, but I’ve also been able to travel throughout the states and overseas. I’m a huge national parks nerd, a sci-fi enthusiast, and a vintage collector with a serious thrifting addiction.

From the moment we booked Northwest Hearts Photography, Naomi was exceptional in her communication and always willing to answer any questions we had. Her work is truly amazing - she is so caring, accountable, and creative in capturing all the special moments of our wedding day. Naomi was even down to help where needed, even tying our groomsmen's bow ties! The sneak peek photos she shared are exactly what we were hoping for and I would recommend Naomi any day of the week. We are thrilled with the service and quality of Northwest Hearts Photography.

Photography By Cambrae

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $950

I am a Portland native through and through! My love for photography rivals only my love of traveling. My interest in photography began at a young age, thanks to my Uncle and 8th grade math teacher. After over 18 years of experience, I have mastered the art of putting my clients at ease and creating an environment for them to be present and most importantly be themselves. I have a deep passion for not only the images I create but for the people I work with. I truly consider it an honor to be a part of someone’s wedding day and the images we create together become reflective memories for the couple, not just snapshots in time.

Cambrae was very easy and fun to work with. She is very professional and good at communicating. The photos are so amazing and the prices are totally reasonable. Highly recommend!

Skylar Coonan Photography

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Just a little backstory on how I got into this business. When I was a child, I loved taking pictures of everything. And I mean everything! (I get that from my mom.) Now my dad didn't share this same joy as me because back then it was all film and every snapshot I took...he knew he had to pay to develop. We love to look back on that time of my life now and see where it got me. Its a funny story to reflect on, but so rewarding to see a joy turn into a passion and that passion turn into a career!

Awarded Best of Zola
Skylar was an incredible vendor to work with! She was kind, funny and on top of it no matter what the situation was. When it comes to photography this women has the natural ability to turn something beautiful into something magnificent! She shot my couple at Skamania Lodge and given with chilly November weather, Skylar kept up a great attitude and made sure my clients and their guests were happy. The photos me and my team received where impeccable! Don't believe me? Go check out her Instagram and let it speak for itself! Not only does Skylar have the utmost skill but her husband Jimmy is also just as talented with videography. If you need a photo/video duo this is definitely your couple! I will continue to speak highly of them and recommend them to all my future clients!

My husband and I hired Tyler to shoot our wedding. After seeing the fantastic photos on his website, we knew we wanted a telephone interview. That phone call sealed the deal. He listened when we told him what we wanted and was willing to provide the pictures we asked for. Other photographers told us, "yes, you DO want the getting ready pictures" after I had just told him we DO NOT want them. Tyler just said, "whatever you want for the day works for me". All our communications from that point until the day of the wedding were professional, friendly, and polite. We had no doubt everything would be just as we hoped. And we were right! Tyler arrived early to get familiar with the venue (Skamania Lodge) and came prepared to take all the posed and candid shots we requested. We loved how comprehensive his candid shots were, capturing all of our wedding guests in their natural element. His high quality customer service continued on the day of the wedding and we felt great about trusting him to capture all those important moments. We continued to be impressed when we received our photos in a Dropbox just THREE DAYS after the wedding. They looked fantastic and were, indeed, exactly what we had asked from him. Tyler is an excellent photographer and we were also just so pleased with the business side of things as well. We could not be happier and would recommend him for any special event. Thank you, Tyler!!!

Hey there! I'm Katie, a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. Capturing magical moments through photography is my passion and I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to do what I love for a living. My goal is to create beautiful, timeless images that will transport you back to your wedding day every time you look at them. Aside from being a photographer, I'm also a mom to two human kids and 3 fur babies, and I've been married to my high school sweetheart/boy next door for 17 years. I love coffee, Gilmore Girls, and scrolling TikTok ;p

There are hardly words to describe how grateful we are to have worked with Katie! She captured our wedding day in a way that absolutely exceeded our hopes and expectations. She was so easy to work with, super flexible, super communicative, super helpful. She helped us get organized and advised us in ways to help the day run smoothly (both from a photography perspective and from a general logistics point of view as well). Her turn around time on photos was exceptionally quick and we have loved seeing our day through her lens. We cannot recommend Katie enough!!

BEST FORM OF COMMUNICATION: INQUIRE VIA WEBSITE !! Hello, I am delighted you are here! My name is Rosie.​ I’m deeply passionate about capturing your intimate moments and creating stunning, timeless images that you’ll treasure for years to come. My approach to photography focuses on capturing the essence of naturalness, freedom, love, boldness, brightness, and the richness of the present moment. I believe that every photo should tell a story and evoke emotions that make you smile, laugh, or even shed a tear.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rosie is truly one of the best photographers out there! She is so genuine, authentic, down-to-earth, and creative. All of these qualities and many more made her an absolute joy to work with. She is prompt, professional, and knows what she is doing! From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, Rosie captured moments I never could have imagined - but most importantly (and what makes her so good) is that she captured us! My husband and I are a bit shy and reserved when it comes to having photos taken, but she made us feel comfortable and brought out our personalities in both our engagement and wedding photos. Rosie made the perfect timeline for our wedding day to flow seamlessly and captured so many detailed photos that were all stunning. Rosie was also very sensitive about sharing our intimate photos in public platforms. We will be working with her for future photos and highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you so much for everything!

Malarkey Media

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $750

I’ve been attached to my camera for the past 15 years and have done a little of everything, with work appearing in Marie Claire, on book covers, in web catalogues and in family albums. Whatever your needs are, I’ll be happy to curate exactly what you want. My shoots are fun, relaxed, and range from quirky to poetic. I choose to set my prices at a competitive rate because I don’t think that professional, quality photos should be a luxury item — they should be accessible to everyone. Thank you so much for allowing me to document precious moments in your life!

Larkin is very quick to respond to inquiries, and makes the process of booking photography painless. Her experience and talent shows as she is able to execute the shoot efficiently, while still capturing every detail. Lots of photographers now use filters and AI to touch up photos in an effort to get as many photos processed as possible quickly, but Larkin gives each photo the time and attention that it warrants, one by one, all by hand. This kind of attention to detail is what truly sets her apart as an artist, and it shows. She truly wants to make sure her clients are happy with the end result, and she will keep working until that happens. Highly, highly recommend!

  • Classic style

Thanks so much for taking the time to see if I might be a good fit to photograph your wedding! I've found that one of the most important factors in a great wedding is enjoying the people you surround yourself with. Since I will basically be your third wheel on one of the best days of your life it's important that we click well! That said, some things I’m passionate about include photography(obviously), the NBA, vinyl records, pretty movies and tv shows with no story, and a ton of other stuff. I tend to be pretty enthusiastic so if you think “I wonder if Nate is into..." I likely am!

Nate Meeds was the perfect wedding photographer for us. From the beginning, his communication was quick and easy, making the whole process stress-free. Nate has such a fun, easygoing personality that put us at ease during the photo sessions - which was great, since I don't really enjoy having my picture taken! Despite my discomfort, Nate made it so easy and the final photos turned out amazing. His work is truly great quality and captured all the special moments of our wedding day, especially the epic dance party photos that are unmatched. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out and would highly recommend Nate Meeds to any couple looking for a fantastic wedding photographer.

  • Serves Portland, OR

Imagine a wedding day that feels like stepping into your favorite storyline —intimate, magical, and unapologetically yours. I help craft experiences for couples who value creativity, intentionality, and a touch of wonder. My photography is a blend of both documentary and editorial, combined in such a way that feels authentic and timeless. From windswept vows on a mountaintop to quiet toasts in a mossy forest. Based in Oregon, I specialize in elopements that celebrate your individuality and sentimental parts of your story. Let’s create some truly magical photographs—together.

We asked a lot of Mia - a sunrise shoot in the mountains. She was super accommodating and didn't complain one bit when we bushwhacked our way up a shrub-filled mountain. She was great at helping us pose while staying natural, and we think the photos speak for themselves in terms of quality. We would highly recommend working with Imagine Elopements for any kind of photo event, but especially for adventurous couples looking for someone not afraid of getting a little messy!

Oregon Coast based. I love creating a full experience for my couples, and really developing a friendship so we can make your day truly you! Yes, I’ll be dancing at your wedding. I started my business after an incredibly hard personal loss because photos became a huge part of my grief journey. I love capturing the raw and real moments, the ones you look back on and wish you could have forever. Photos are timeless and I love creating small forever moments in time. I care deeply for my clients! If you’re ready to get barefoot, maybe a little messy and live in the moment I’m the photographer for you!

I can't express enough how happy we were to have Renee. She just so happened to be in town the weekend of our wedding so we didn't even have to pay a travel fee which she never had to do! She was a breath of fresh air in actually feeling like she was appreciative to be our photographer. After a long period of planning I was starting to feel like vendors were acting like they could care less to be selected and Renee was COMPLETELY the opposite. She sent us the sweetest personal touches and dug through all her photos to show me examples of photos that really mattered to me. I wanted more candid photos and she did not disappoint. Even when going through a lot in her personal life, she was there 100% on our day which was so amazing and I will have these photos forever to always remind me of our special day. We tried doing some phots before the ceremony and everyone wanted to come say hi or congratulations and Renee was amazing at being my personal bodyguard and keeping people at bay. She is the best!!

Mahdi was voted our best vendor at our wedding! By us and by friends that got to know him. From our first phone call I was like, man this guy is cool and relaxed. I'm also pretty relaxed but obviously this can change on your wedding day, so having a laid back photographer was perfect for me. He arrived a bit early to set up and we chatted a bit and he went straight to work and my bridal party loved him right away. I would recommend Mahdi to anyone looking someone to perfectly capture their day or even just capture the moment. You will not find a nicer, more professional, or fun person to help you to remember the most important day of your life.
