  • Serves Salem, OR

We’re Hunter and Lindsey Wickert— a husband-and-wife photography team based in Vancouver, Washington, serving couples across the Pacific Northwest. Our goal is simple: create photographs that feel like your memories. From the shoreline near Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach to snowy trails at the base of Mount St. Helens, forest aisles, and golden fall family sessions, we chase real moments, movement, and connection. We want you to look back and feel it all again— the nerves, the joy, the laughter, and the quiet in-between. Artful, natural, and deeply personal— your story, exactly as it unfolded.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lindsey and Hunter were great! We got married in September 2025 and the photos were perfect. We really liked how the talked us through the process and asked what style of photos we liked. They helped us capture all the traditional photos and then added some extra fun ideas, which turned out great! Some of our favorite shots were spontaneous ideas when touring the venue. We also did an engagement shoot. The weather wasn't great and the cherry blossoms decided to drop all the flowers the day before. Lindsey and Hunter had backup ideas just in case and it worked so well!

She guided us through the planning process, suggesting things we hadn't considered, and it made the day of the wedding very easy.

She was extremely responsive throughout the planning process, answering all our questions promptly and offering helpful suggestions. On the big day itself, Naomi went above and beyond.

Renee Walker Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Salem, OR

Oregon Coast based. I love creating a full experience for my couples, and really developing a friendship so we can make your day truly you! Yes, I’ll be dancing at your wedding. I started my business after an incredibly hard personal loss because photos became a huge part of my grief journey. I love capturing the raw and real moments, the ones you look back on and wish you could have forever. Photos are timeless and I love creating small forever moments in time. I care deeply for my clients! If you’re ready to get barefoot, maybe a little messy and live in the moment I’m the photographer for you!

I can't express enough how happy we were to have Renee. She just so happened to be in town the weekend of our wedding so we didn't even have to pay a travel fee which she never had to do! She was a breath of fresh air in actually feeling like she was appreciative to be our photographer. After a long period of planning I was starting to feel like vendors were acting like they could care less to be selected and Renee was COMPLETELY the opposite. She sent us the sweetest personal touches and dug through all her photos to show me examples of photos that really mattered to me. I wanted more candid photos and she did not disappoint. Even when going through a lot in her personal life, she was there 100% on our day which was so amazing and I will have these photos forever to always remind me of our special day. We tried doing some phots before the ceremony and everyone wanted to come say hi or congratulations and Renee was amazing at being my personal bodyguard and keeping people at bay. She is the best!!

My work is centered around authenticity — capturing the quiet glances, the unspoken emotions, and the grand, celebratory moments that define your story. The most powerful images are often the ones you don’t realize are being made: the weight of a hug, the breath held before “I do,” or the laughter that fills the room without restraint. I believe in allowing your day to unfold naturally, without intrusion or unnecessary direction. Based in Portland, Oregon, I document weddings and elopements across the Pacific Northwest and United States — with a commitment to delivering imagery that is both honest and artfully composed.

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.

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.

My husband and I booked Mioara after we got engaged in 2018 for our wedding scheduled for 2020. She's sweet, personable, communicative and professional. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with her services. We worked with Mioara for a very long time due to the pandemic pushing everything back and/or rescheduling, she was so kind and flexible to whatever we needed throughout. We knew immediately after meeting her and doing our engagement session that she was the perfect fit for us, laid back and fun with a way of making you feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. We were blown away by our beautiful pictures when we got them back! On our wedding day she captured all the important moments along with some fun creative ones as well. Mioara has an eye for capturing couples naturally, making for pictures that are reflective of your personalities. We honestly couldn't have been happier and left the experience not only with beautiful pictures but feeling like we had gained a friend.

Hello! My name is Dana (pronounced 'Donna') and I was born and raised in Mexico, and now I currently reside in Vancouver, WA with my husband and three fur babies. I love to travel and explore the beautiful Pacific Northwest, and beyond! I am so grateful to be able to photograph couples and families displaying so much fun and love.

Dana went above and beyond with our engagement shoot. She took care of us in every way imaginable, and made the shoot comfy, fun and playful, which was exactly the vibe I was hoping to capture with my fiancé. She made sure that we got the poses I had showed her on my inspo board, but also suggested some that were absolutely perfect for the setting. The pictures turned out better than I could have imagined. I am historically a bit uncomfy in front of the camera and often don't enjoy pics of myself, but I can't stop looking at the stunning photos in our gallery, as they look like something out of fairytale. I know we'll be enjoying them for many years to come, and I can't wait to show them to our kids and our grandkids. Thanks from the bottoms of our hearts, Dana. 3

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!

I worked with Skylar and her husband in August 2019 in Mountain View, CA. They were both great to get along with and work alongside! Her photos are GORGEOUS and watching her interact with the Bride and Groom put everyone at ease.

Hi friend!! I'm Karmen. I believe love deserves to be documented with intention, honesty, and care. The kind that feels cinematic but real. Elevated but effortless. I believe your wedding day should feel like you, not a production performed for the camera. The most meaningful images live in the in between. Quiet nerves before the ceremony, hands finding each other without thinking, laughter that spills out when the timeline pauses. Your photos are never about perfection. They are about presence. Thoughtfully guided when needed, and quietly observed when the moment belongs to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew we were in good hands with Karmen! Her communication was prompt, direct, and showed a genuine understanding of what we were looking for in a wedding photographer. On the day of our wedding, Karmen was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, & paid close attention to every detail. She perfectly captured the artistic style we wanted for our photos, and guided us through posing and other logistics so we could fully enjoy our special day. The entire process was smooth, and we were thrilled with the final gallery delivery. KNCAPTURES' attention to detail, expertise, & commitment to excellence is unmatched - we would hire her again in a heartbeat and couldn't be more pleased with the results!
