We have a knack for helping the bride and groom feel how beautiful, stunning, and magnificent they truly are. After five years, we became full-time photographers. Wedding photography, take us up and down I-5, all over the state of Oregon and beyond. We have even had the chance to travel to Eastern Europe and work with orphans in Belarus. We believe that everyone has a story to tell. So, let’s get together and talk more. We would love the chance to tell your story, too.

I am a full service wedding photographer serving the Willamette Valley and beyond! I fell in love with the wedding industry through the process of planning my wedding in 2017. Through my own wedding experience, I learned to appreciate the little details and the immense joy of getting married in a way I had never fully understood. I now find so much joy in capturing these memories for other couples!

My journey in photographing started when my sister handed me her old 35mm camera and said “Go have fun!”. I was hooked! I haven’t been able to put a camera down since. I love using natural light to create soft, organic and romantic images. I shoot digital now but love tossing in a bit of film every now and then. I love hear couples love stories, their hope and dreams for their lives together. So here is ours! I met my hubby when I was 17. We began our happily ever after 3 years later when we were married at a private home along the McKenzie river in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. We now have two beautiful children and two adorable puppies.

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

After finishing my degree in Fine Arts, I mentored under After Midnight Photography and have since honed my work into something I'm truly proud of. The experiences I've had and people I've gotten to meet along the way have formed my skill and kept my soul aflame. While I call Washington home, I feel most alive on the road to new destinations. I believe that you’re your most authentic self while traveling and learning. I love collaborating with all people and like to think I have an eye for taking photos that express you for who you are as a whole. No two people are the same, your portraits should reflect that!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hello there! I'm Andrea, owner of Amative Creative, and every weekend we're so blessed to be able to tell the love stories of so many amazing couples. Like many others in this industry might say, we simply adore weddings. But what makes us a little different is our entire brand is centered around telling love stories specifically curated to reflect your vision and aesthetic. "Amative" means to be prone to love, so as you can see, we want nothing more than to tell your love story! But what makes us truly unique is that we understand every love story looks different. And we personalize every aspect of how we document your wedding day!

I am a firm believer that friendship comes from learning the weird and quirky about a person, and still wanting to hang out with them after. And, since you will literally spend more time with your photographer than most anyone else on your wedding day, I want to be friends. We NEED to be friends. Like, I’ll-probably-end-up-holding-your-dress-up-while-you-pee type friends. That’s practically BFF status. I’m not only in the business of capturing your epically rad and emotional moments, I am also in the business of making lasting friendships, both of which I’m really awesome at.

My love for photography started as far back as I can remember and has now become an extension of who I am. Serving couples from a place of empathy, hospitality, and deeper understanding of who they are and what’s important to them, while providing them a heartfelt piece of their family legacy.

I've been a professional photographer and filmmaker for over 18 years and love working with couples to create beautiful, artistic photos and films.

Love knows no bounds. Every person is deserving of love and deserving of having it captured perfectly. I believe in equality. I believe in living simply and loving deeply. I believe that dogs are the best travel buddies and that plants make the world better and prettier. I believe that perfectly planned photos are awesome, but so is the candid photo of your 90 year old grandmother drinking whiskey with your friends. Your photos are about you, not me. I won't tell you what to do or how to live your best day. What I will tell you is where the best light is, what to expect during your wedding and always get your "good side."

How many moments were captured that you never even realized. That you cannot wait to frame them & put them on your walls!

I'm Amy & I'm so glad you're here! So, you’ve found your person & you’re both taking the plunge, eh? Rad! Tell me everything!
