Venture Ever After 
Rating: 5.0 (20 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Forest Grove, OR

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.

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.

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!

✨ Books Closed ✨ Hello friends! A little about me: I honestly LOVE weddings and elopements. I believe in creating a relaxed and fun environment that adds value to your wedding day, and not taking away from the experience. What that means is I mix action based posing that creates real memories and fun moments, with a photojournalistic approach.

Lindsay Blair Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Forest Grove, OR

Lindsay Blair is a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon, known for her clean, natural style and focus on authentic moments. With a background in visual storytelling, Lindsay approaches each wedding with a calm, detail-oriented mindset, helping couples feel comfortable in front of the camera while capturing meaningful, candid images.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lindsay for our June 2025 wedding, and I truly can’t imagine our day without her. I first discovered her through a tagged post by Oregon Wedding Day and I immediately fell in love with her work. She was actually the first vendor I booked once we had our venue picked out. Her style captivated me right away, but it wasn’t until we began working together that I realized how truly special she is — Lindsay’s gift isn’t just in how she photographs a moment, but in how she makes you feel during it. From the beginning, Lindsay took such delicate care of every detail. From our engagement photoshoot, to thoughtfully building our wedding day timeline, to seamlessly coordinating with our videographer and planner. Her calm, confident presence was the greatest gift I could have asked for on my wedding day. With so many things happening around me, Lindsay became a kind of security blanket — gently grounding me in the moment so I could be fully present. For the first time in a year and a half of planning, I was able to just relax and enjoy my wedding — and that was entirely because of her. Without a doubt, Lindsay’s talent, experience, and intentional care are what make her the best wedding photographer in the Portland and surrounding area. I was in love with her work from the start but nothing prepared me for how beautifully she would capture the most important day of our lives. Wedding photographs are like a time capsule and I will forever be grateful that we had someone go so far out of their way to make sure every detail of ours was perfect.

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!

I started taking photo’s when I was a little kid, it started with clouds and beautiful sunsets on an old wind up camera. Fast forward to my senior year in high school, my mom bought me a Canon powershot A95 as a graduation gift in 2005 (Thank you mom) and that gift changed everything and allowed me to take endless digital photos. Today I am shooting with a Nikon D600 and I love it! On my down time I enjoy playing instruments with my amazing wife Sophia and watching movies snuggled up on our couch with some wine. I love getting outside and exploring the city as well as getting lost in nature on some hikes.

Lacie and Tim are just the most amazing photographers (and people). They met up with us in Montana to shoot our elopement photos ahead of our shooting our wedding reception in Indiana. They are both so friendly and fun and Lacie has such great instincts. She and Tim surveyed glacier national park for great photo ops the day before we met. When we met some cloud cover in the park Lacie made a great call to pivot and get some amazing sunset photos on the lake which were stunning. While we drove around the park it felt like we hanging out with our good friends which made it all the more fun and the photos more authentic. Both Lacie and Tim were so helpful and kind, and our photos both in Montana and Indiana are everything I’ve ever wanted! Would hire/will hire them again and again!
