Katie Hickenbottom Photography

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

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

From start to finish Katie was amazing! When my wife and I started wedding planning we specifically looked for LGBTQ friendly vendors and Katie stood out. Her photography and editing is gorgeous and we knew we had to choose her! We took our engagement photos only a month before our wedding and Katie made sure we got our photos in time to be able to use them at our wedding. From planning to the actual day Katie made everything smooth, fun and easy. Our photos turned out amazing and we got sneak peaks less than a week after our wedding. I cannot thank her enough for capturing our special day so perfectly!! Highly recommend

Your love story is one of a kind, and your photos should reflect that. I document weddings and elopements with an honest, storytelling approach, focusing on authentic moments so you can relive the day exactly as it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our wedding photographer! We had a more formal, traditional wedding, which wasn’t the type of wedding Lauren typically shoots. However, after just one call with her, we felt completely confident that she was more than capable of capturing our wedding, and she definitely exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, she was easy to communicate with and always responsive to our questions or concerns. We were particularly impressed by how she remembered all the little details we discussed over multiple conversations, ensuring the day was captured exactly as we envisioned. The entire photo experience was effortless and enjoyable, and we ended up with stunning photos that we absolutely love. The value we received for the quality of her work far exceeded our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the PNW. Thank you so much, Lauren, for creating lasting memories from our unforgettable day!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an amazing experience working with the Wickerts for our wedding. Their communication style was professional, welcoming, and attentive throughout the process. They were passionate about capturing beautiful, human moments. As a fellow photographer, I appreciate the beauty of their work; the final images are clear, polished, and rich. We are typically a camera-shy couple, but the Wickerts made us feel comfortable and had us laughing. They did a wonderful job of directing the shoot and incorporating our ideas. We are thrilled with our final photo gallery and highly recommend services. We are working with them again on our wedding!

Photography By Cambrae

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,300

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first reached out to Photography By Cambrae, we were impressed by their quick replies and friendly communication style. Cambrae was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, providing us with a detailed timeline to ensure our wedding day photos went smoothly. She was patient and creative when trying to capture photos with our sweet dog River, and made the entire photo session fun and relaxed for everyone involved. Cambrae's attention to detail and ability to pose us perfectly resulted in photos that beautifully captured the joy and love of our special day. We are thrilled with the high-quality work Cambrae delivered and would recommend her to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Georgy Shishkin Photography 

5.0

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

Hi, I'm Georgy Shishkin — a wedding and elopement photographer with over 19 years of experience capturing love stories in breathtaking landscapes. Based in Oregon, I photograph weddings across the Pacific Northwest, California, and British Columbia. My background in photojournalism taught me how to anticipate real emotion, while my years in wedding photography taught me how to guide and support couples in front of the camera. I love helping people who’ve never modeled before feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely connected. Every story is personal to me — I’m not just your photographer, I’m your teammate throughout the day.

Georgy is such an amazing photographer. He is really easy to work with and is flexible. When needing help to find locations, he would put in the time to help find a few and suggest them. We aren’t very photogenic. Georgy would help and teach us how to pose and stand. Very grateful for him to fix us during our photoshoots. I’d say, Georgy is very dedicated in his work. During our engagement photoshoot, he arrived early to the location scouting out perfect areas and snap a few pictures to test. Also, on the day of our wedding, the original location did not work out as planned. Georgy thought quickly on his feet and suggested another location that wasn’t too far away. We are so glad to have Georgy capture our special day for us! Thank you Georgy for your hard work and dedication!

Skylar Coonan Photography 

5.0

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
I cannot say enough about how happy we are with Skylar...my partner and I agreed hiring her was the best money we spent on our wedding. Photos mean so much to us, and I couldn't be happier that we trusted her for our wedding and engagement photos. She is communicative, friendly, responsive, and punctual. She has amazing instincts and did an incredible job of making us feel relaxed on both of our shoot days. She captures a perfect balance of staged and candid photos with perfect composition. Sneak peeks were provided for our photos and the full libraries were delivered on time in an easy to access format. I appreciated the surveys she sends out to get to know you better before shooting. I genuinely could keep going and going! We chose Skylar because of her offered packages and photographic style and it was absolutely one of the best choices we made throughout the entire process. She is the first recommendation I will give to friends and family; we have received so many compliments on the gorgeous pictures. I am so happy that the precious, priceless memories of our wedding day are captured in such beauty forever! Thank you!!!!!!

Established and experienced photographer, and all around nice guy! Pictures tell a story, and we will work together to capture yours. Candid, posed, individuals, groups, getting ready, decorations…it all goes in to an album you’ll be smiling at today, and for several years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tyler was both professional and easy going! He was reassuring about our outdoor venue and backdrop choices. He listened to our requests and was able to adapt quickly, capturing some beautiful posed and candid moments. He is mindful of backdrop and directed folks kindly, moving purses and plants to frame us. The photos turned out well lit framed and easily downloadable. So I could share them right way.

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
Going into our engagement session we felt so nervous not knowing how to pose. Rosie made us feel comfortable, and the anxiety we carried was suddenly gone. It was fun, and it felt like a first date all over again; romantic, sweet, & dreamy. We forgot a camera and its photographer was in-front of us documenting our love story. We felt so comfortable with Rosie, and her way of directing us to pose was different & unique. She allowed us to be our selves. The photographs we received were so lovely, and are now hanging in our home as picture frames. Rosie without a thought was our first choice photographer for our intimate micro-wedding photographer. She delivered what she promised in a timely manner. I recommend Memories In a Pocket to all couples for any type of photoshoot!

Overstory Photography

Portland, OR

Hi, I'm Christina! Here to make you feel comfortable and empowered during your shoot, I have over ten years of experience behind the lens. I specialize in engagements and elopements, using the beauty of nature to capture life's most precious moments. I strive to feel more like a friend than a vendor, promising to be there as a sounding board any time. I'll provide as much or as little guidance - from posing to editing to shot list - as you desire. Thank you for letting me help make the shoot of your dreams a reality!

Christina took our engagement photos and they are truly some of my favorite pictures of the two of us. Neither of us had participated in a photo shoot since our senior pictures so we were a little anxious going into it, but Christina’s calm presence, sense of humor, and great direction helped ease of nerves immediately. I love that she really was able to capture our playful dynamic in our pictures and nothing felt too stiff or posed. We will definitely be using her again for future family shoots and recommending her to everyone we know! Thank you again Christina!!

Kendra was so kind and easy to work with. We love our wedding and engagement photos, all of which she got to us so quickly! We're notoriously awkward in front of cameras, but somehow she managed to capture genuine moments and beautiful images. She was also SO patient with the herding of cats that was photographing both of our huge families on the wedding day. So glad we hired her!!!

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!

Portland, OR
  • 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.

She was so easy to work with, offering suggestions and creating fun moments with our group. Bethany also photographed our reception, and did a fantastic job spotlighting our guests and the energy of the evening. We appreciated Bethany’s professionalism and skill. The photos of our event are just stunning – they are some of the best photos ever taken of us.

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.

Mia is the absolute best! From our engagement session to our wedding day, she was so friendly, easy to work with, and just genuinely sweet. It felt like I already knew her the minute I met her. She gave us the perfect amount of direction and at the same time, just did her thing and wasn’t a distraction at all. She gave us our pictures back in a timely manner, and the wedding album we received is absolutely gorgeous! I met with quite a few other photographers when deciding who to book for our wedding, and no other photographer offered such a perfect Collection either. Ours included an entire day of coverage, tons of pictures, and the wedding album. We can’t thank Mia enough for capturing our day so perfectly and for helping everything go as smoothly as possible. We feel so lucky to have these pictures for years to come. Thank you so much, Mia! And to all of the future brides out there, book her now! It’ll be the best decision you’ll make during the wedding planning process!
