  • Starts at $900
  • Serves Madras, OR

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!

Jenny Renee' Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Madras, OR

Some moments ask to be witnessed, not staged. Your wedding day isn’t a series of poses, it’s what unfolds naturally, often in between the expected. My approach is documentary at its core, guided by an editorial eye. Based in Bend Oregon/ San Francisco and working throughout Europe and select destinations, I photograph weddings for couples who value presence over performance, and experience over expectation.

Jenny is truly the most talented photographer! Her work is stunning, abstract, timeless, and completely unique. From the moment we saw her photos, we knew we had to have her, which is why we flew her all the way to Italy for our wedding (even with so many amazing photographers there). Beyond her artistry, she is incredibly organized and calm, keeping everything on schedule while making sure every meaningful shot was captured. She went above and beyond, delivering the most high-quality, beautifully edited photos of our day. Most importantly, Jenny feels like a friend I’ve known forever, we were so comfortable, so happy, and endlessly grateful she was there with us on our big day!

Capturing Authentic Stories That Transcend Generations || There’s nothing I find more special than witnessing a couple celebrate their love in the most meaningful way possible – whether that’s surrounded by loved ones or in a private moment shared between just the two of them. Your wedding day should feel thoughtful and intentional. It’s about creating moments that resonate with who you are as a couple – moments that evoke a sense of calm and reflection on the journey that brought you together and the adventures that lie ahead.

Tori isn’t just an incredibly talented photographer; she’s an extraordinary person. She brings such a positive, fun, and down-to-earth energy, making the entire experience feel effortless and enjoyable.

Her ability to capture a wedding day beautifully and authentically—while being completely unobtrusive—is a testament to her incredible skill. And not only does she create stunning portraits of the couple, but she also has an unmatched talent for capturing the love, joy, and bonds shared with family and friends.

Howdy! I'm Gwen. I am believer in love at first sight and that travel is the best teacher (experiencing new places makes my soul sing). I have been photographing weddings for over 13 years. From Iceland to Antarctica, Hawaii to Alaska, Shanghai to Scotland and frequently in Colorado my home-state, I've captured photos of incredible humans full of love. I quickly found my passion is documenting intimate weddings and elopements; those full of intention and a little untraditional. I support ALL clients and their right to marry who and how they choose.

It's important when looking for a photographer that you don't only like their work- you also jive with them personally. Gwen has a great eye for composition and detail while also being a great human and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Gwen!

Your wedding day shouldn't be a marathon of pleasing others; it should be an exhale. Imagine a day with zero performance and 100% presence. Whether it’s a quiet mountaintop or private vows in amoung the trees, you deserve a celebration that feels fun, joyful, and entirely your own. I’m here to help you bridge the gap between "dreaming it" and "living it." Let’s create something unforgettable!

Marissa is fantastic. We worked with her for our wedding, and she produced absolutely stunning photos that truly captured the joy and beauty of the day. She was well prepared with multiple locations in mind, she had many suggestions for poses, and she was extremely efficient with our limited time, adapting well on the fly to last-minute schedule changes. Equally importantly, Marissa made us feel very comfortable throughout. You end up spending quite a bit of time with your photographer, so it makes a big difference to the overall feel of your wedding day to work with someone as friendly and warm as Marissa!

We will make sure you not only feel comfortable, but that you look good! We give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable.

PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used many photographers in the past but none came close to the level of expertise that Leah possesses. Over the years, I've done business headshots with her, family photos, and most recently my wedding. Since I have used Leah's services for other things before, I knew what to expect as far as photo-quality goes; the real testimonial comes from how she handled the wedding. Shooting a wedding in another country with a chaotic family is no easy task, even I wouldn't wish it upon myself, but Leah truly knocked it out of the park: she checked in before the event day to go over the schedule, showed up early, got all of the extra shots that I requested, directed people, and just really took charge of the experience. Having her as my wedding photographer was literally one of the only non-stressful decisions I made for that event lol. The photos turned out beautifully, I really can't imagine having anyone else capture one of the most important events of my life. I recommend her wholeheartedly!!

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.

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

Shannon was absolutely perfect! She made our wedding day truly special. She was attentive, professional, clear and concise, and so well prepared for the day. She eased my stress and took a load off my shoulders when I was worrying about all of the small details. Not to mention she saved me with eye drops when I got an eyelash in my eye and looked like I had pink eye 30 minutes before having to walk down the aisle. Not to mention, she had a gallery of nearly 100 photos for us as sneak peeks sent in two weeks, when she had two other weddings on her books within a week of mine. It was truly a wonderful experience to work with her!!

Whether you’re saying “I do” on a mountaintop, in a backyard, or anywhere in between, I’m here to capture your day with intention, artistry, and heart.

We absolutely loved Svanna! From start to finish, she was organized, communicative, and so easy to work with. On the wedding day, she was not only incredibly helpful but also flexible — ready to pivot and go with the flow whenever things changed. She made sure we got every shot on our must-have list while still capturing so many candid, joyful moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Our groomsmen especially had a great time during photos, which says a lot considering many of them don’t like photos, but they all complimented Svanna on her ability to make it a good time for them! The final gallery is absolutely beautiful — her editing style is timeless, natural, and truly brings the day back to life every time we look through it. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would 100% recommend her to any couple looking for a talented, easygoing, and genuinely wonderful photographer.

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!!
