Eliza Curl Films & Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (48 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Brookings, OR

As an artist in the 21st century, I am overwhelmed by all that we cannot trust. The landscapes are edited, the portraits are airbrushed, and the legitimacy of what we see on social media is anyone's guess. That's why it is my passion and life pursuit to capture our most precious things in life - our loves, our families, our unrepeatable moments - in the most true-to-life and timeless way possible. I live for the unguarded moments that take our breath away. If you want to capture this time in your life in all its perfect authenticity, it's my job and my joy to capture the soul of these things for you to hold in time forever.

Eliza went above and beyond with our photos and wedding videos. We only had her for a few hours and she was able to capture a lot in a short amount of time. One of the things we liked most about her was the outpouring of positive energy. It made it easier for us to take pictures since we're camera shy. She was such a joy to have on our special day and could not have asked for a better photographer. If you want a photographer who is creative, patient, and detailed-oriented then look no further and hire Eliza!

This has taken me a little while to get to writing as after wedding day life has been a little chaotic but wanted to express praise where it was well deserved. Holly exceeded my husband and I's expectations as our photographer on our wedding day. Not only was she extremely professional, but she was kind, personable and very helpful.

Hey!! I am a native Oregonian that grew up taking film photos with my dad when we would go on road trips!

Her communication style is encouraging, thoughtful, and exciting, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of Sarah's work is truly dreamy, editorial, and has a gorgeous vintage aesthetic and that is exactly what we were looking for. On our wedding day, Sarah helped coordinate everything seamlessly and made sure the day went off without a hitch. She is the absolute best and captured our elopement on Lake Como beautifully. Sarah makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and is great at guiding you through every step. We would recommend Sarah Markstaller Photography to anyone looking for an exceptional photography experience for any occasion!

I expected beautiful photos, but we got so much more. Heather and her team made our wedding era so wonderful. She treats you like a best friend she’s known her whole life. Not to mention her team’s passion for travel. Heather and Andrew traveled 6 hours each way for our engagement photo shoot, then again for our wedding.

Her years of wedding coordination and event experience were truly evident throughout every step of the day. Not only was she totally on top of keeping us on our timeline and capturing all of the special moments, but she even went into super hero mode and on the spot sewed one of my bridesmaids dresses in the bathroom right before the ceremony without showing an ounce of stress. We already received our preview photos and are truly blown away by how she captured our love & our special day.

I’m Kirstin! An emotionally driven, film-forward wedding photographer based in the desert Southwest. I work with wildly-in-love couples who want their wedding to feel like them: artful, offbeat, deeply intentional. I photograph elopements and micro-weddings with a storytelling lens- capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My work blends digital + 35mm film to preserve the honest, unposed, heart-full moments in all their textured, tear-filled, windswept beauty. My couples tend to be nostalgic, a little nontraditional, and full of feeling. If that’s you- you’re in the right place.

We met Kristin at a June 2025 wedding where we provided the flowers, and we were blown away by her work. Her photos are stunning - full of emotion, joy, and all the little in-between moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. She has such a gift for capturing the real feel of the day. As someone who works with a lot of wedding vendors, I can honestly say Kristin is a true gem. If you want memories that feel timeless and beautiful, she’s the one. Wholeheartedly recommend - 10/10!

Shooting with them literally feels like hanging with your best friends. They were an absolute joy from start to finish, but it was Sharayah’s attention to detail and artistic eye that impressed me above all else. It was inspiring to feel like we were all creating art together, and the photos don’t lie! Our engagement shoot went viral on Instagram, and we got hundreds of comments saying, “these are literally the best engagement photos I’ve ever seen.” I too, agree with that sentiment, but I have to give credit to Hereafter’s vision and execution because they NAILED it. As a team, they’re both extremely communicative and organized, professional yet relaxed in the way they interacted with us and our guests. No one has ever made me feel so comfortable in front of a camera. Additionally, their digital color grading is meticulously adjusted to match 35mm film with incredibly accuracy. They perfectly captured the magic of our special day. We booked them for the whole package - engagement shoot, wedding photos, and wedding video with super 8 film. Their understanding of my vision was remarkable…Hereafter managed to romanticize every single detail in a profound way. The photos are so special to us because each one feels like a standalone piece of art. They went above and beyond for us in every capacity, even going so far as to drive me to the venue on my wedding day when things ran late! We cannot recommend Hereafter Films highly enough. Book them immediately! I promise you, they are worth every single penny and more.

Marissa was amazing every step of the way. She helped to narrow down an elopement location base off of our wants. She also came up with a detailed schedule for the whole time spent with her, and options to choose from base off the location we picked! Due to weather, I had a freak out a couple days before the elopement. When I emailed her about my concerns, she responded within 15 minutes reassuring me she was making a back up plan and emailed a new detailed schedule with options within a few hours! And the pictures?! Phenomenal! Everything I could have hoped for!

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.

Our journey with Ann Marie started when we won (after the first winners didn’t need it after all) her engagement photo package at the Portland Venue Crawl. We were beyond grateful and excited to win such a valuable experience and quickly realized that Ann Marie was going to be so fun to work with. She helped us pick an amazing location that required some travel for her, and it was so much fun - we got sun, fog, rain, sunset, and even a rainbow! She was prepared for it all and made it such a fun adventure. We were really nervous and she helped us chill and get a bit more comfy in front of the camera. She delivered our sneak peaks the next day which were so fun to look through and was extremely prompt with getting us the rest of our gallery. Naturally, we hired Ann Marie for our wedding too and cannot imagine having anyone else! She was so helpful through the stressful wedding planning process, sending us vendor recommendations and always being available if we had questions or needed advice. She has an amazing network and her want to help with things not even photography related was so impressive and very appreciated. There was a major health scare in my family, we weren’t even sure if my dad was going to make it to wedding day and Ann Marie was so kind and supportive. She captured moments for my family that carried a lot of weight and she did it with such grace and thoughtfulness. We are all so grateful for her commitment to making wedding day as special as possible, for my husband and I but also our loved ones. We’ve gotten an amazing selection of sneak peaks and should be getting our full gallery soon - we couldn’t be more excited! Ann Marie is impressively prompt and has communicated with us each step of the way so we were never left to wonder “what’s next?” All of our friends and family are also very impressed with Ann Marie as a photographer and as a person. Hoping to stay in touch and work together again in the future!!

I have been a professional wedding photographer for 8+ seasons and captured hundreds of weddings from the Rocky Mountains to the West Coast. I am both a storyteller and historian with my camera in hand. I love to incorporate the amazing landscapes with rich colors and natural light. My focus is on my couples feeling comfortable in front of the camera. I like to give some direction and allow for real moments to happen rather than anything being forced. My work has been featured everywhere from ABC (The Bachelor franchise), Green Wedding Shoes, Oregon Wedding Day, BRIDES.

We could not have loved working with Ashleigh any more! From the second we met over zoom to the delivery of our album she’s been amazing. She truly made the wedding day such a joy for us with her attitude, pace of work, and just fun demeanor. We so appreciated the way she captured everything we were looking for without taking away from our time with our people—our families and our wedding party loved her just as much. The finished product is absolutely fabulous and the turn around time was so appreciated, we couldn’t be happier. Ashleigh has a way of perfectly mixing the beauty of any location and the vibe of the couple to make you feel like a million bucks on your big day!

Laurie Ann Martin Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographers. From the very first conversation, Laurie and her team were prompt, clear, and collaborative in their communication, making the planning process seamless. Their work is truly stunning, heartwarming, and exceeded all of our expectations. Laurie and her team were able to capture every special moment of our day, from the intimate exchanges to the grand celebrations. Even when the weather didn't cooperate, Laurie worked creatively to get breathtaking shots with my veil that felt like works of art. And the golden hour photos they captured were absolutely mesmerizing. We will treasure these images forever and are so grateful to have found Laurie Ann Martin Photography to document this once-in-a-lifetime occasion.

Julie Morgan from Sound & Sea Photography gave me the photo session of my dreams. Her expertise and attention to detail left me worry and anxiety free. Being from out of state, we were able to connect via phone and zoom. I gave her my vision and some details i wanted to incorporate and BOY DID SHE DELIVER!!!! She gave me plenty of site options to choose from, and all were exactly what i was looking for. We narrowed it down to distance and ease to locate since we were traveling with little ones. She considered everyone and everything. Her outlook and sense of direction really made the absolute difference. She took factors of the elements, snow, sun, shade, fog, light and gave us the most beautiful moments. Even capturing the little candid moments with the kids and my new husband were so heart warming. She saw what I didn't see. She positioned us in ways that were both flattering and fun! She had the best pricing but and the best accommodations. I would definitely recommend a thousand times!
