Abigayle Tarsches Photography

I’m a Portland-based wedding and portrait photographer with a background in movie stills and fine art photography. My journey into wedding photography was a natural evolution—rooted in a lifelong love of storytelling, visual beauty, and human connection. Before photographing weddings, I spent years capturing cinematic stills on film sets and creating fine art imagery that explored emotion, intimacy, and light. That foundation deeply informs how I approach each wedding: with an artist’s eye and a storyteller’s heart. This business is built on connection, trust, and artistry.

My approach to wedding photography is deeply influenced by my background as both a movie stills photographer and a fine art photographer. These worlds shaped how I see, how I frame, and how I capture people—not just beautifully, but meaningfully. This experience is what truly sets me apart. It trained my eye to anticipate emotion, to notice the subtle in-between gestures, and to tell visual stories with cinematic flair.
