Krista Mupo Photography

Ridgefield, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Independence, OR

I am an Oregon, USA born and raised portrait and wedding photographer. I have doing photography professionally for 10 years. I have dabbled with photography off and on my whole life but I have been professional since 2014, and as of Fall 2018, photography is my full-time pursuit! I currently reside in Ridgefield, Washington with my partner and two cats that are basically my children, I’m obsessed with animals. I love to travel! Road trips are my favorite so I can memorize the lyrics to songs and binge listen to podcasts- The Dollop, RedHanded & Crime Junkie are my favs!

Krista is an artist she puts lots of thought into her work and how it presents it self. She makes you feel comfortable and listens to what you want. I’ve worked with her for many years and she has leveled up! I recommend working with Krista!

Hi there! I'm Brayley, a full-time Traveling Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer who operates primarily in the Western United States, & I would LOVE to be your wedding photographer! 🫶🏼 I grew up & now live in the PNW with my loving spouse & our sweet pup, Forrest, but after doing my undergrad in AZ, I just knew I needed to spend at least part time there, too. I LOVE my work & am passionate about capturing life's precious milestones, & doing so in a way that feels natural & authentic to my clients. Although I love all photography, I specialize in wedding, lifestyle, & business photography with a natural, earthy, classic & candid style.

Brayley made the shoot so fun and easy and it was truly a joy to work with her. The pictures turned out absolutely beautiful and I would highly recommend booking with her!

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I live in Oregon with my husband and our two cats Clara & Leonardo. We love exploring the Pacific Northwest, but we've also been able to travel throughout the states and overseas.

t was so fun working with Naomi! We told Naomi we wanted a romantic classic look and that is what she delivered! She is able to capture things at your wedding that maybe you over looked or didn’t have time to see, which makes it little more special to look back at those photos. Naomi was exactly what we needed on our day. She is sweet, kind, and is caring to your needs. She makes your day less stressed cause she is all about having your day be fun and about you and your spouse! I highly recommend Northwest Hearts Photography!

​As a documentary photographer, I go with the flow and discreetly capture each magical moment as it unfolds, telling your story as honestly and authentically as possible. No trends. No awkward poses. Only joy, emotion & storytelling.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Amiran was an exceptional experience. From the start her communication and professionalism put our minds at ease. My wife and I were looking for a wedding photographer and it was starting to feel like Goldilocks looking for the perfect photographer, until we found Amiran. It was amazing to review the photos she took and laugh together about how we never noticed her during the ceremony and never heard shutter clicks, yet she somehow captured our special day perfectly. I would highly recommend Amiran to any friend or family member. If you are reading this, do yourself a favor and reach out to her. That’s all I took for us to know we working with a true professional that understands photography and also works hard to understand her clients.

Mike and Elsie of Lifeslice Photography are incredible to work with on so many levels.

Congrats on your upcoming wedding! I love capturing the authentic emotions and natural moments that unfold during a wedding. I have been photographing weddings for 5 years now and feel so blessed every time a couples hires me, it’s such an honor! I come in as your photographer but I always feel like family when I leave. You can count on me to be your biggest cheerleader during this process and to beautifully document your day so you can relive these memories for the rest of your lives. I can't wait to work with you!

Holly was the best wedding photographer I have ever worked with, and I have been in at least 9 weddings. She was very skilled- she knew how to help us relax yet get good poses. She was discreet- I don't remember seeing her the entire wedding although she was definitely around as her photographs from many angles show. She got all the shots we wanted yet was not stressed or uptight. She took initiative and was prepared. She was very warm and friendly; we felt really good about having her join our family for the special day. Also her development of our photos was timely and professional. I have no negative things to say, only positive.

Hey! I’m Heather, I'm a film & nostalgia inspired documentary photographer based in Oregon. I photograph weddings with both film and digital mediums, and thrive most with clients who are invested in staying present during their wedding day & hold dear all the precious moments that happen.

Heather's quality of work is outshined by her delightful, warm, encouraging personality. She is one of the most well-connected and knowledgeable vendors - I swear she knows everyone, and as such she's been an awesome resource for vendor referrals, venue recommendations, and more. When an issue pops up for me (I had a vendor back out at the last moment!) I can contact Heather and she always has some ideas for navigating the situation. Truly so much more than a photographer, but she is amazing at her craft as well. My advice: splurge and add film to your package. Film photography just hits different, you won't regret it!

This girl!! I couldn’t say enough good things. She is flexible and open to do whatever or go wherever and she makes it easy. It can be weird posing but it never feels that way, it always feels like we are just hanging out with friends. Quality wise, I had someone walk in my house and tell me our pictures looked like they were straight out of pottery barn and couldn’t believe we had someone take them and that they weren’t something done for a professional company. I would never and will never have anyone else take our pictures again and can’t wait to grow our family and have every season documented by Nikki. Just book with her, you won’t regret it!

Salem, OR

I am a PNW girl, wife of my middle school sweetheart, Logan, and mama to three lazy kitties and a puppy. Most of the time you will catch me reading, taking long scenic drives with Logan, or sitting in watching a rom-com. Being engaged, and now married (still can’t believe it), has given me such a deep perspective of what a being a bride is really like. From day one, my goal is to capture what was real, with nothing forced or too posed. I want to tell stories. I want you to look at my images and feel something.

Sierra did our engagement photos as well as our wedding and she was professional, caring, and supportive the entire way! Not only is her photography amazing, she was also super helpful during both the planning and actual wedding. 1000% recommend Sierra to any wedding couples!!

Get an authentic experience with photographers who truly just “get you”. We got started photographing couples and traditional weddings in 2017, but it made us so sad to see couples stressed out to the max on their wedding day, rushing around, and hardly getting to spend any actual time with their partner or their guests. After photographing a few elopements and seeing how elopements allow couples to have an intentional day where they can slow down and really soak it all in, we switched to photographing only elopements in 2019 and haven’t looked back.

We will work together to create a wonderful timeline and friendship so that on your big day, the only thing you should be focused on is looking into the eyes of your love.

Weddings and elopements have been a really special part of my life. I get to work with amazing couples and I am so so grateful for them. My craft, is finding intimacy in moments that some may not see, initially. The small moments that lie outside of standard traditions and expectations but mean something to you. I work differently because of this too, and I pride myself on being an artist that captures your life as it unfolds, however that may look.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Lacie is a great photographer and person!! She took our engagement and wedding pictures. During our engagement session we instantly felt comfortable with her! She had us pose in ways that captured our natural selves. During our wedding day, she was always ready to help, whether that be with us girls or doing the groomsmen’s boutonnieres. Having her there, not only as a photographer but as someone to help us through our big day whenever she was needed, really put me at ease and helped limit the stress of ourselves and our families. Plus our pictures turned out spectacular!! We would use her services whenever needed in the future and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking for great photos that capture the people/personalities in them. Our expectations were exceeded in each session we did with her!

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
We would 100% recommend Nadia, Cassidy, and Venture Ever After for anyone looking to get married in the PNW. In finding a photographer we needed someone to help us figure out where to get started, what to look forward to, and to guide us along the way. We wanted something simple and easy, but even that came with some stressors. Nadia and Cassidy provided us with a detailed itinerary for the day and constant communication. On my elopement day we were so at ease, we were just sitting around waiting for the time to start like “what now?” Which is a great alternative to a stressful and chaotic wedding day. The photos were beautiful and everything we ever wanted. I appreciate being able to share those memories with the friends and family who could not come. Although Nadia and Cassidy were hired for photos and to officiate the ceremony, they helped with so much more. From flower shop recommendations, hotel stay suggestions, restaurants, even ceremony ideas.

Your earth loving, sun chasing Oregon elopement photographer. My work is ever evolving but my intention is always the same: to capture the essence of who you are and create timeless photographs that will always take you back to your incredible day.

The second I got engaged I knew who I wanted my wedding photographer to be. Mia is an incredibly talented artist, and I was so excited to work with her. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable through the whole process. I had very specific shots that I wanted to get on our wedding day, and she made every single one happen, as well as offering us other suggestions. She captured our special day beautifully and created a gorgeous album that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Portland, OR

  • Serves Independence, OR

I am a firm believer that friendship comes from learning the weird and quirky about a person, and still wanting to hang out with them after. And, since you will literally spend more time with your photographer than most anyone else on your wedding day, I want to be friends. We NEED to be friends. Like, I’ll-probably-end-up-holding-your-dress-up-while-you-pee type friends. That’s practically BFF status. I’m not only in the business of capturing your epically rad and emotional moments, I am also in the business of making lasting friendships, both of which I’m really awesome at.

Dionne was able to capture the genuine and brief moments that made our wedding special. Not just of my husband and I but of all our guest and loved ones. The wedding cake is gone and the decorations have been taken down. But I can still relive that night anytime I want with the beautiful pictures captured by Dionne. I highly recommend her for any event!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Love Knot Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Isaac has an incredible eye and attention to detail, and it shows in the end result. I'm really glad to have had his expertise in setting up our wedding day timeline, and he delivered everything I was hoping for and much more in the final photos. His use of lighting and the natural environment is really special. The natural aesthetic of the finished photos is gorgeous. I have a large family and it was no easy task to deal with their different personalities and requests and Love Knot handled everything perfectly. The entire time throughout this process of planning and throwing a wedding Isaac has been very responsive and willing to help us with any questions we have anytime. It's an art to create photos this special, and another type of art to manage a business and respond to the individual needs of a client. And it's beautiful to see both come together so seamlessly. I will definitely be recommending Love Knot Photography to any of my family or friends who may be searching for a photographer.

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!

If you want someone who will get excited about your creative vision and go out of their way to help make it happen, Skylar is your photographer! I had an idea to take some unique photos in a specific location, and she without question let me know she had experience in what I was looking for. On the day of our photoshoot, she went above and beyond to get the right shot and made us feel really comfortable getting our photos taken in public (which isn't easy to do!). Skylar really made our engagement photoshoot so memorable and special, I am so grateful to her for the care she put into our session. The photos turned out great too!

My fiancé and I loved working with Lucia! She did an engagement photo session with us, and the whole experience was fantastic from beginning to end. She set up a video call to get to know us, get a sense for who we were and what we were looking for, and then was super helpful and communicative when picking a location for the shoot. She was able to share sites she had used before with photos from those locations, and she shared input from other photographers on locations we thought of that she hadn't used before. When we started looking for a photographer we were apprehensive about the whole thing because we're both by nature pretty awkward in front of a camera, but she made us super comfortable and you can tell how relaxed we were when looking at the photos. We genuinely had family members say "now that's what I think of when I picture you two" when they saw our photos. She even asked for some of our favorite music and had it playing when we started, which was super thoughtful! For the shoot itself, she gave us plenty of direction but was also really collaborative and open to any of our ideas for poses or shots or areas of the location to use. We were worried on the way to the shoot because it was rainy when we first showed up at the park, but right away she had ideas for how to still find usable areas and took some great shots, and even had some clear umbrellas that made for a cute look. When the rain let up, we were able to get some wide shots that really took advantage of the location and she did a fantastic job of editing out the groups of oblivious sightseers that walked into frame. The photos definitely capture us as a couple and showcased the location we chose. After the session we got our preview gallery back in record time. She told us she was going out of town on a family trip a few days after our shoot but she'd get our preview turned around before she left so that we didn't have to wait, and she totally delivered (and probably 3x the amount she promised, so she even overdelivered). We got the full gallery back exactly when she said, and they all look amazing; we loved the experience and the photos we get to share with family and friends.

Kaitlyn was an incredible photographer to work with! We did 2 engagement photoshoot sessions with her, which were both so fun!! My husband was dreading the photography most, out of all parts of “wedding planning.” But Kaitlyn was able to make him feel relaxed and comfortable so that he actually enjoyed himself! And he actually loves the way he looks in the photos! (He usually hates having his photo taken and the way he photographs.) Kaitlyn was able to capture our silliness, laughter, and genuine happiness in the candid photos which is exactly the look and feel I was hoping for in our photos! (I’m personally not a fan of the stiff posed or moody photos.) Our second engagement shoot also included our dog, which was fantastic! Not only was Kaitlyn great to work with on wedding day and the 2 engagement shoots, she was also a great resource for planning the logistics and timeline of the wedding day. She had great input of the flow of the entire day, which was something I had completely overlooked. Most importantly, Kaitlyn was very professional the entire time. We also gave Kaitlyn the added task of photographing the flower girl nieces (ages 2 & 7 years) and the ring bearer nephew (age 5) who is on the Autism Spectrum. All 3 kiddos still talk months later about how they had so much fun at the wedding! And Kaitlyn was able to capture them all smiling! Photographing dogs and kids is always difficult to ask for, but the photos of our smiling nephew on our wedding day made the parents and grandparents cry tears of joy! It’s rare to catch this kid smiling! We loved working with Kaitlyn, and we can’t wait to do more photoshoots together in the future!

Love knows no bounds. Every person is deserving of love and deserving of having it captured perfectly. I believe in equality. I believe in living simply and loving deeply. I believe that dogs are the best travel buddies and that plants make the world better and prettier. I believe that perfectly planned photos are awesome, but so is the candid photo of your 90 year old grandmother drinking whiskey with your friends. Your photos are about you, not me. I won't tell you what to do or how to live your best day. What I will tell you is where the best light is, what to expect during your wedding and always get your "good side."

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

My husband and I got married at the start of the pandemic. Who would’ve thought that not long after I met the man of my dreams the world would be turned on its head! But there we were, starting a new life together during an uncertain time. Our wedding plans went through many changes as you would imagine. But Nicole was understanding, and did her best to work with our requests. She seemed to be just as excited about our plans as we were. My husband and I both agreed that she was easy to reach, and she was always very pleasant whenever we did so. She actually showed up to my wedding before I did! I would positively recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for a special event. I’m very pleased with how the pictures came out. I would like to hire her again to do some family photos.

We booked Siri as our engagement and wedding photographer.

Siri is the photographer for you! We're both a little nervous being in front of the camera, but Siri naturally and seamlessly guided us through every shot. She also has an eagle-eye for candid photos, capturing sweet, funny, and moving moments we otherwise would have missed during the whirlwind wedding day.

Kelsey is an incredibly talented photographer - she truly "sees" the subject of the photo. She understands their energy, personality, and their comfort (and discomfort) zones. Kelsey has the ability to capture these special moments in time in a photo, that when revisited/looked at after the event, take you RIGHT back to that moment. She is artistic, professional, and consistent with her art and business. She is always exactly where you need her to be, and extremely reliable. She puts the client at ease, even when being in front of a camera is not the most comfortable experience for most people! She is organized in her approach before, during and after the event but never too pushy or overbearing. She listens, observes, and performs at a very high level. Working with Kelsey was a dream, and I feel thankful to have worked with her. I believe the photographer is the most important vendor during the "wedding" process (engagement, wedding, etc.) and I struck gold with Sunbeam!!

Whether you landed on this page to hire a wedding photographer, or a couples photographer to craft a story that documents your relationship, I'm your person. I put so much love into every session from couple’s portraits to full-day weddings and Destination wedding weekends. I pour a little bit of myself into every piece of art I make and I can't wait to learn who you are, and what moves you.

We hired Val for as our Wedding Photographer and it was truly the best decision we made for the entire wedding. Val was responsive, incredibly helpful, willing to email/call/text throughout the entire process and very knowledgable not just about wedding photography, but about all things planning. Not to mention she has a heart of gold and is truly the most loving, encouraging and supportive person to work with. She gives you her FULL attention, whether in person or on the phone and makes it clear that this is not just a job for her, she is here to experience the day with you. We had an hour long phone call before the day in which she provided valuable insight into our timeline, and helped me flesh out a 12 hour timeline to ensure we got to everything we wanted. She showed up EARLY on the day of, was above and beyond prepared, and treated absolutely everyone, whether fellow vendors or our friends and family with true kindness and respect. She is half therapist half photographer I would say, as she is willing to be with you in moments of emotions to provide kind words and a reassuring smile, but also to capture those moments with her unbelievable talent. NOW TO HER PHOTOS- we were BLOWN away. I am a wedding coordinator myself and I look at thousands of galleries a year, and when I say I have never seen such raw emotion captured, paired with a beautifully creative eye, I mean it. We told Val we wanted less posed photos and more candid shots, and she absolutely nailed it. She sent us sneak peaks less than 12 hours after our wedding ended, and had the full gallery back to us in less than a MONTH. That is unheard of in this business, and Val did not sacrifice a single image quality, creativity or intentionality. We are so beyond happy with our pictures, and so thankful to have had Val by our side for our wedding. She is also amazing at providing prompts that inherit true reactions, which I loved. I gave her a two page long shot list of family photos, and she cruised right through them, without any stress or confusion. She was patient in time when we were running behind, and was flexible to move around timeline items as necessary. We did our private vows and asked her to give us a little space, and I didn't even notice she was there, but she got the MOST beautiful images that did not interrupt our moment by one bit. Val is truly wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to absolutely ANYONE!!! HIRE HER RIGHT NOW!

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.

We had an amazing experience with Overland Elopements. Anna & Trevor are adorable. They were very relaxed and professional and made us feel very comfortable even though they had cameras in our faces. lol. Really, they were easy to be around. And the photos came out beautiful! We love the collection so much! We were shocked with how quickly they provided our photos. It was like they were as excited to look over the footage as we were.

I also aim to edit my photos in way that keeps the natural beauty and makes them timeless and not part of a trendy fad edit. I’ve been shooting weddings since 2013 and have been part of celebrations in 6 states and have seen it all!

It was such a pleasure having Alison as our wedding photographer. What was so nice was that we had our engagement shoot with her prior to our wedding which actually let us meet her for the first time then, and she made it so very easy for us both. I have never felt photogenic, whatsoever. But she makes it so easy throughout the entire shoot that I actually can loosen up and forget how I feel about myself. She makes it very personable. The wedding was amazing! The only bummer I felt that the assistant photography never caught were any solo pictures of me and my Mother on our wedding day, because we have none to remember the day by, but besides that one thing it was amazing seeing all of the memories from the night! We love her so much that we’ve used her for our first maternity shoot (never had a second one because I didn’t feel confident in my second pregnancy), as well as our first family photo shoot just early this month. Definitely a photographer worth hiring!

We're Hunter and Lindsey Wickert! We're a husband and wife photographer team based out of Vancouver, Washington! We love doing what we do best— we make your photos feel like your memories. Whether that means walking along the beach near Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach with you, snow-shoeing up at the foot of Mt. St. Helens for your Engagement Photoshoot, following you down the aisle in some of our gorgeous Pacific Northwest scenery, or playing in piles of leaves for your beautiful family photos and getting those magical shots. We want you to be able to look back at our work and feel exactly how you felt the moment we took them.

The Wickerts Photography is an amazing option for natural and light photos. I was amazed by how perfectly the photos were edited, as well as the kind energy put in by Lindsey. She was sure to get all the photos that I needed while making sure the couple was comfortable.
