Ariel Jordan Photo

My name is Ariel, and I am positive that if you are here you already know that I’m an elopement, wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I fell in love with photography when I was in middle school and really pursued photography by taking classes in high school. But like so many other creatives before me, I told myself that if I were to make my passion my paycheck, it would burn out the love I had for this craft.

Well, aren’t I just a huge sucker. Choosing a different path, I pursued a career behind the chair as a hair stylist for nearly a decade. The pull of photography was still so strong, so I took a leap of faith and started shooting again in 2017. And here we are.
