Krista Mupo Photography

Ridgefield, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Salem, OR

I am an Oregon, USA born and raised portrait and wedding photographer. I have doing photography professionally for 10 years. I have dabbled with photography off and on my whole life but I have been professional since 2014, and as of Fall 2018, photography is my full-time pursuit! I currently reside in Ridgefield, Washington with my partner and two cats that are basically my children, I’m obsessed with animals. I love to travel! Road trips are my favorite so I can memorize the lyrics to songs and binge listen to podcasts- The Dollop, RedHanded & Crime Junkie are my favs!

I am so grateful that we got to work with Krista! My partner and I are both a bit awkward in front of the camera, so we felt nervous at first. Krista is very kind and easygoing and she immediately made us feel comfortable. We did an engagement shoot with her a month or so before our elopement in our home and our neighborhood. She got many great shots that really felt like us, which has never been our experience with photos before. The day of our elopement she both had lots of ideas and also made sure to get what we had imagined, and took so many incredible photos! She was prompt and professional and was even willing to drive with us to another part of town to get some pictures with the cherry blossoms, which was truly above and beyond. Working with her was lovely all around and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, especially awkward queer folks like ourselves who want to feel affirmed, supported, and beautiful. Thank you so much Krista!

Hey all!! I am so glad you're here! I am a Milestone photographer in Oregon! I shoot anything from engagements, to weddings, to newborns. However, I primarily focus on weddings. I would love to help you capture your big day with whatever vision you have! Let's chat!

Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with! We weren't sure if what kind of photos we wanted but Katie was able to give easy and clear poses that gave us stunning photos. The part I admired the most was her pulling us aside during dinner to capture the only sunlight that peeked from the sky that day, something that was unintentionally so meaningful to my husband because in that moment of sunshine he felt his late brother was there with us. She captured some of my favorite photos during that moment. Thank you Katie!!

Working with Nikki has been an absolute dream and a blessing. She has photographed my husband and I while we were dating, she did our engagement photos, she took photos of me and our puppy and she was the photographer we chose to photograph our extremely intimate wedding. When I say intimate, I mean it was my husband, me and nikki. And that’s it. And it couldn’t have been more of a dream. She isn’t only the best photographer either, she is truly one of the best PEOPLE we’ve met. She’s so kind, warm and caring and she will always make you feel comfortable in your own skin and in front of the camera. Couldn’t recommend her more, she will be there to photograph all of our big moments in life, and I know she’d be ecstatic to do the same for you!

Get an authentic experience with photographers who truly just “get you”. We got started photographing couples and traditional weddings in 2017, but it made us so sad to see couples stressed out to the max on their wedding day, rushing around, and hardly getting to spend any actual time with their partner or their guests. After photographing a few elopements and seeing how elopements allow couples to have an intentional day where they can slow down and really soak it all in, we switched to photographing only elopements in 2019 and haven’t looked back.

My name is Edith after my great grandmother. My biggest loves in my life are Jesus Christ and being a mama to two very wild boys who keep me on my toes.   I absolutely love the bold, rich colors that are the most visual part of my style. We will work together to create a wonderful timeline and friendship so that on your big day, the only thing you should be focused on is looking into the eyes of your love. Wedding photography is so precious to couples because when all has faded away, in one hand you’ll hold your love, in the other you’ll hold a photograph and in your heart you’ll hold the memories that come from both. Blessings to you!

I grew up in a small town in the San Juan Islands of Washington State and feel a strong connection to the outdoors. You'll notice this when viewing my work, too. Weddings and elopements have been a really special part of my life. I get to work with amazing couples and I am so so grateful for them. My craft, is finding intimacy in moments that some may not see, initially. The small moments that lie outside of standard traditions and expectations but mean something to you. I work differently because of this too, and I pride myself on being an artist that captures your life as it unfolds, however that may look.

Besides marrying my husband, hiring Drzazga Photo as our photographer and videographer was the best decision I made! To say that Carly and Kasey were outstanding is an understatement.

When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing.

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + intimate weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people in love have the wedding of their dreams in magical outdoor spaces. When you choose to elope, you’re choosing to get married free of society’s wedding day expectations. So go wild! Spend the entire day in your favorite place, with your favorite person. Wear a fancy outfit, or wear your hiking boots. Invite your dog instead of your mom’s second cousin. Share your first kiss under the stars instead of under an altar. In the great outdoors, you write the wedding rules. And I’m here to help make it an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Nadia was a joy to work with and she captured every single moment of our wedding so beautifully! We couldn't have asked for more. She was incredibly responsive to all of our needs and questions and did a remarkable job day-of. She was a pleasure to be around, but also moved about discretely so that some of our guests had to be reminded we had a photographer there (even though she darted in and out of the dance floor to capture amazing photos of the fun!!). She really got it all- we feel so lucky we found Nadia to photograph our wedding!

I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We were fortunate enough to have Randell as our wedding photographer and videographer as I just stumbled to find him in a local wedding facebook group and without a doubt, he is THE BEST! From the moment we met him, it was evident that his professionalism and passion for his craft set him apart. His efficiency on the big day was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, ensuring he captured every significant moment without being intrusive. His ability to organize group shots and direct us for those perfect candid moments showcased his experience and expertise. Now, let's talk about the photos - they are nothing short of spectacular! The only "problem" Randell presented us with was making every single photo look so incredible that it's nearly impossible to choose our favorites! As an artist myself, to me each image is a work of art, reflecting his keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of lighting and composition. Randell not only delivered on capturing the essence of our wedding day but exceeded our expectations. His creativity and skill turned ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and the timeless images he has given us to cherish for a lifetime. If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only meets but exceeds expectations, look no further than Randell. He's not just a photographer; he's an artist who turns your special day into a visual masterpiece. Thank you, Randell, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!

When I say Leah is the best, I absolutely mean it. Our first experience working with her was at our wedding. The photos turned out better than I could have ever expected. She really captured us as a couple - not just the big day - but the actual love we have for one another. I frequently get comments that our wedding photos are some of the best people have seen and I have to agree. Outside of the wedding, Leah has been our go to photographer for family sessions. Our session at the Oregon Coast was hands down my favorite and the pictures really turned out exactly how I envisioned in my head. My husband and I are NOT that comfortable in front of the camera. Leah has a special gift of bringing calm and comfort in the session, which allowed us to drop the awkwardness and really be vulnerable with one another. The photos are beautiful and I cherish the relationship we’ve built with Leah. She just rocks, period.

Carly was so easy to work with and made the photography portion of my wedding a breeze. She was so kind and flexible with my wedding day arrangements. I appreciated her communication style. She listened to my ideas but then also presented some creative ideas I didn’t think of. I also feel that I got a quality product for a really good value. She didn’t attempt to nickel and dime me for every option. She was low pressure which is so important during a process that is typically stressful. I would hire her again in the future.

Hello! I'm Robert. This is me. Let me tell you a bit about who I am and what I do. Love for photography, ​I am very passionate about working with my camera. If I am creating a little photo for myself that is never seen publicly or a project for a client, I put everything I have into making the photography I create as best I possibly can. Every click of the shudder is an opportunity for creating amazing photography. Every photo-shoot has options for photographs waiting to be found. Solving these puzzles with my camera and lighting is a lot of fun for me. I believe you can see that also. That's why you are here looking at my work now.

We originally booked with Robert for a wedding, and were so blown away with his work that we have continued to book him every year for our family photos – 7 years now! He is truly an artist and he captures not only the moment, but somehow portrays the personalities and spirits of his subjects. Photography for the wedding – just WOW. My husband I hired Modern Art Photograph as our wedding gift to my sister and the photographs were the favorite part of the bride and groom's day! The wedding was on the McKenzie River near Eugene at a rented house – Robert went a couple weeks ahead and scouted the area for good locations and had it mapped out for them on the day of the wedding. He took them on a tour through the area before the ceremony, guiding while letting them make the decisions. The pictures were absolutely STUNNING and the couple came back all grins from the 2 hours spent taking the pictures. Pictures during ceremony and reception were just as amazing and Robert also took photos for my pregnancy announcement and for a groomsmen and his fiancé. The next year we booked with Robert for autumn family photos and since then have done shoots all over Portland and even down to the coast twice. He captures my children in a way that I have never been able to on camera. Personally, I am not photogenic and have never loved any photos of myself - except when Robert is behind the camera. The pricing is incredibly reasonable, and for the cost of the shoot you get ALL the pictures in high def. It’s hundreds of photos each year and the hardest part is picking my favorite. He's always offered to re-shoot the entire thing if we don't like it, but we have always been more than happy with the results. He is very responsive with communication and coordination. And he’s amenable to whatever our needs are prior to and during the shoots (including crabby kids, anxious mom, or whatever!). I just cannot express how highly we recommend him!

This was my first ever professional shoot, and Meg made me feel like I’ve been doing this for years! The way she made my partner and I feel comfortable and ease into our photoshoot made for such a fun sunset shoot. We experimented with different poses and lighting all while laughing along the way.

Wedding photography that's all about you. alyson levy PHOTOGRAPHY specializes in creating gorgeous images that tell your unique love story. I rely on years of experience and an artist's eye to capture crucial moments without drawing focus, creating heirloom quality photographs that sparkle with humor and emotion.

I found her rates extremely reasonable for the thoroughness of her services, the attention to detail, and the quality of the photography. Alyson worked with me from beginning to end to make sure I got all of the special shots that the "moms" wanted including candids of moments I missed that night from being so busy "being bride". It was a true joy to go through my photos and relive that weekend. I would encourage you to consider Alyson Levy Photography as your wedding photographer. I am available for questions or feedback.

These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

Hi, I’m Kyle. I’m Northwest born, Portland based, and like to think that I have pines trees sprouting from my skin and sun-soaked glacial runoff coursing through my veins. Aside from photographing weddings, I enjoy strenuous hikes with a view as much as indie flicks, comic books, carving powdery slopes, rock climbing, and Trail Blazers games. I like to share these details because I strongly believe that connecting with the couples I collaborate with is integral to the creative process of photographing a wedding. A strong connection will result in the best images possible.

As a wedding coordinator, working with Kyle is easy. He is communicative, creative, and professional. With his clients, Kyle has a calming personality that puts everyone at ease and he is there to capture every moment and memory. He is always up for a challenge, is adaptable, and produces an amazing product! I absolutely look forward to working with Kyle in the future.

Hi there! My name is Kelsey and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer, and I shoot everywhere from Europe to locally in Denver! My favorite thing about photography is capturing the candid “in-between” moments, real emotions, and when people bring their dogs to their shoots. I work with my clients to create memories that last beyond their wedding day, and deliver photos that capture the fun, romantic and timeless moments so you can re-live them for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey is an incredibly talented photographer - she truly "sees" the subject of the photo. She understands their energy, personality, and their comfort (and discomfort) zones. Kelsey has the ability to capture these special moments in time in a photo, that when revisited/looked at after the event, take you RIGHT back to that moment. She is artistic, professional, and consistent with her art and business. She is always exactly where you need her to be, and extremely reliable. She puts the client at ease, even when being in front of a camera is not the most comfortable experience for most people! She is organized in her approach before, during and after the event but never too pushy or overbearing. She listens, observes, and performs at a very high level. Working with Kelsey was a dream, and I feel thankful to have worked with her. I believe the photographer is the most important vendor during the "wedding" process (engagement, wedding, etc.) and I struck gold with Sunbeam!!

Whether you landed on this page to hire a wedding photographer, or a couples photographer to craft a story that documents your relationship, I'm your person. I put so much love into every session from couple’s portraits to full-day weddings and Destination wedding weekends. I pour a little bit of myself into every piece of art I make and I can't wait to learn who you are, and what moves you.

We hired Val for as our Wedding Photographer and it was truly the best decision we made for the entire wedding. Val was responsive, incredibly helpful, willing to email/call/text throughout the entire process and very knowledgable not just about wedding photography, but about all things planning. Not to mention she has a heart of gold and is truly the most loving, encouraging and supportive person to work with. She gives you her FULL attention, whether in person or on the phone and makes it clear that this is not just a job for her, she is here to experience the day with you. We had an hour long phone call before the day in which she provided valuable insight into our timeline, and helped me flesh out a 12 hour timeline to ensure we got to everything we wanted. She showed up EARLY on the day of, was above and beyond prepared, and treated absolutely everyone, whether fellow vendors or our friends and family with true kindness and respect. She is half therapist half photographer I would say, as she is willing to be with you in moments of emotions to provide kind words and a reassuring smile, but also to capture those moments with her unbelievable talent. NOW TO HER PHOTOS- we were BLOWN away. I am a wedding coordinator myself and I look at thousands of galleries a year, and when I say I have never seen such raw emotion captured, paired with a beautifully creative eye, I mean it. We told Val we wanted less posed photos and more candid shots, and she absolutely nailed it. She sent us sneak peaks less than 12 hours after our wedding ended, and had the full gallery back to us in less than a MONTH. That is unheard of in this business, and Val did not sacrifice a single image quality, creativity or intentionality. We are so beyond happy with our pictures, and so thankful to have had Val by our side for our wedding. She is also amazing at providing prompts that inherit true reactions, which I loved. I gave her a two page long shot list of family photos, and she cruised right through them, without any stress or confusion. She was patient in time when we were running behind, and was flexible to move around timeline items as necessary. We did our private vows and asked her to give us a little space, and I didn't even notice she was there, but she got the MOST beautiful images that did not interrupt our moment by one bit. Val is truly wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to absolutely ANYONE!!! HIRE HER RIGHT NOW!

There are many reasons couples choose not to have a “traditional” wedding, and the beauty is that you can make it anything you want it to be – and that’s also why I care so deeply about making sure every couple I work with knows that their day is important, beautiful, and deserves to be captured so you can look back on every detail. Hi! My name is Anna– I am an elopement and wedding photographer helping adventurous couples say “I do” on their own terms from coast to coast.

I spent MONTHS speaking to maybe 30 different photographers, and I was blown away by Anna and Trevor from the start. We had van life in common at the time, I knew they were my people. The photos in their galleries were so crisp, colorful, and candid -- exactly what we wanted. Anna took the time to have multiple Zoom calls with us to ensure we were comfortable before signing our contract. The care the team takes in getting you ready for your big day is incredible, a questionnaire, a planning guide, and all the location scouting?! They literally hiked our hike the day before our elopement to scope the best spots and make sure it was everything we wanted! Their patience with us while working out our timeline was so generous and kind (we were not easy in this regard). Anna even helped me with other vendors referrals (hair/makeup, videographer, florals, attire, footwear, you name it). Even a packing checklist! And this is all BEFORE the big day! Day-of they were early, professional, kind, and so cool...we hope to hang out soon as friends, they're those kind of people. They made us feel SO comfortable on such an intimate day, and it went off perfectly, we couldn't have gotten luckier. THE PHOTOS! They speak for themselves, and these are just the sneak peeks, which we received in I think 36 hours?! If you go with any other photography team you're crazy. Book this duo.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jos and Tree came highly recommended to us and, having worked with them, we now know why! A lot of people take wedding photos. Among them are a handful of folks who are also reliable, professional, and pleasant to work with. And within that smaller group, is an even smaller group of photographers who have real artistic vision matched with technical skill. Jos & Tree are, without a doubt, near the top of that select group. The images they produced of our wedding run the gamut from traditional wedding photos to absolute masterpieces of lighting, composition, and technical execution. Here's an example: as the day was wrapping up, and a bit *after* Jos and Tree's deadline for leaving had passed, they quickly posed my wife and I in front of a tree in the park; Jos had a vision for an image he wanted to capture in the fading light... and the resulting image proved absolutely magnificent; it is my favorite photo of the day, and among the top photographs I have seen anyone create, anywhere. On top of the artistic talent and skill, Jos & Tree were an absolute pleasure to work with; responsive, pleasant, personable, and fun. They were always on time, and ready to work... and work they did!! The amount of effort and energy they put into capturing lots of beautiful and creative images cannot be overstated. And then, they edited them beautifully, and have been working with us to select images to print and put in a book. The quality of their artistic consultation has been phenomenal. My wife and I have seen a lot of wedding photos that people proudly post online on sites like reddit. I can confidently say that I've yet to see more interesting and beautiful wedding photos than the ones I've seen from Jos and Tree. It's a pleasure to give these two lovely people our highest recommendation.

I’ll try to keep this short: I’m a silly, introverted, rule breaker with a sincere whimsical streak. Originally from Iowa with a decent chunk of time spent bopping between Minneapolis and Oregon, I love weddings + photography (duh), my nephew, a stiff gin + tonic, propagating too many damn houseplants, and my cats. Last I checked I’m an INFP, Enneagram 4, and Capricorn which makes me quite the pragmatic daydreamer + observer: as unnecessarily prepared as a Boy Scout, curiously creative, and hella laid back, all of which uniquely prepares me for the ebb and flow of a wedding day.

Caitlin is a dream. From the time she arrived to the beginning moments of our wedding, Caitlin right away was comfortable with everyone. She brings an ease which allows people be calm and we honestly forgot she was there, snapping away. There were many moments where she would check in and make sure everyone was good, the energy was so sweet. We received our photos right when she said they would be done. The work Caitlin does captures the warmth, and light of a love event. My husband cried the first, second and third time we looked though the collection. We will treasure them forever.

I’m Sam, a TEDx speaker, author, native Oregonian, and adventure elopement expert. And I regret my wedding. Oooof, right? I cried on my wedding day. They weren’t happy tears, either. Let me tell you my story. I had a day that wasn’t really about the connection I had with my husband. It wasn’t about who we were as people and about the things we loved. It wasn’t “us”. Imagine having an adventure elopement day that includes whatever floats your boat. Whether it’s adrenaline-packed, laughter-filled, chill vibes, or all of the above. Then add in a kickass connection between you & your partner that’s enabled by dedicating that day TO YOU.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let’s start off with the fact that the whole week we were in Alaska felt like a blur, because it was truly more awe-inspiring than anything we could’ve imagined, making it SO hard to go back to reality after this fantasy adventure that Sam helped us cook up. There were helicopters, tons of different sights, glaciers, and MOOSE! One thing we loved about working with Sam was that it never really felt like we took posed photos; there were prompts and directions, but it really was genuine, she captured us just being weirdly us. Jeff complained about getting his photos taken in the months leading up to our elopement, but the experience was way better than expected (he grew up despising cameras) and all of our photos are so full of life, taking us back to that exact time and place. Also, Sam suggested thinking about our day as an adventure first and a wedding second, and it really helped us realize the potential and plan a day that was way more badass and memorable than any traditional wedding! We certainly don’t feel like we missed out on anything by eloping; in fact, we feel the experience was more meaningful and intentional because we got to experience all of these new adventures together that were uniquely us. I’ve already had friends and colleagues come up to me asking how to elope like we did. My advice is, “Here’s Sam’s contact info – you need to call her.”

They allow you to put your marriage first. To release any pressure or judgment and just be you, together. Not only are you committing your life to someone you love more than anything, but you’re starting the adventure of a lifetime with an adventure of a lifetime. And because I’ll be there to help you craft the whole thing, and document it as it unfolds, you can relive your best day ever; over and over, forever.

I shot my first elopement wedding film with Jayne and she was such a joy to work with! Not only was she helpful in making sure I could get the shots I need, but she definitely had a rapport with the couple that really put them at ease. The other thing that really stood out was how thoughtful and detailed she was. She had done so much scouting, research, and leg work that the day just flowed really well and everything was just easy! Would highly recommend working with Jayne!

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Ashley is seriously one of the best vendors I've ever worked with. Her photos are wonderful and fit the sweet, romantic style with a hint of vintage. But not only is her work great, she's so easy to work with. She makes sure to be there for every step of the process and is so easy to talk to. My husband and I are not the most photogenic but she makes the whole process simple and fun. I can't recommend her enough!

Photography has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. To capture a single moment while telling a beautiful love story is something I will cherish forever. I'm a born and raised oregonian. I love the outdoors. Most days you can find me at the local coffee shop, working out, or going thrift shopping. I love trail running, kayaking, and traveling.

As a wedding planner, I’ve enjoyed working with Kara. She produces such beautiful work—I love the aesthetic, modern vibe, and composition of her photos. She is super relaxed and goes with the flow, which helps keep the day running smoothly. She is a photographer I recommend to my clients!

Welcome to Taira Marie Photography, we are excited that you have found us! Take your time browsing around to learn a little bit about us and our style. We are here for you if you have any questions and are looking forward to connecting with you!

Deciding on a wedding photographer is not an easy task because you know these are once-in-a-lifetime memories to be captured, but choosing and working with Taira Marie Photography was nothing short of extraordinary. We discovered their Instagram through our Wedding venue, as they had worked together on some events and photoshoots, and I was immediately drawn to the photography style. It was completely serendipitous to find out that they had our wedding date available and hit it off with their team on our first meeting. Our package came with an engagement shoot, which gave us an opportunity to really get comfortable in front of the cameras, they turned out lovely and we realized how truly passionate Taira is about her job. The photography team worked with us to hit every "shot list" photo we wanted to get on our big day and captured the most beautiful details. Taira and Joey felt like family at our wedding and have been so good to us with their communication and professionalism. Our wedding album just arrived (hand-delivered too!) and it's amazing, I'll never forget how we felt that day because it's so wonderfully and thoroughly portrayed with their photography.

We're Natasha and Brian! A husband and wife, PNW elopement photographer duo. When we're not getting slimed by our own slobbery dog Fern, or helping you plan your dream wedding day, you can probably find us alpine lake lounging, making a weird new kimchi flavor, or deep on the forestry roads in our (always dirty) Tacoma blasting some indie alt or rap (there's rarely an in between lol). We're your photographers, die-hard dog petters, and donut-eaters that are all about playful banter, real conversations, and no icky small talk.

For me and my now-husband Ryan, the importance of finding an excellent wedding photographer was unparalleled. We discovered Natasha and immediately were drawn to the nostalgic, film quality to her work. We love the way she captures moments that feel both so real and so dreamy at the same time. It’s an art! Additionally, correspondence with Natasha was always a pleasure. She was speedy in her responses, always answered any questions, and just extremely down-to-earth and easy going. Our introduction to working with Natasha came from our winter engagement session. We chose to do the shoot at home and around our neighborhood in Seattle. Though we were still nervous in front of the camera, Natasha chatted with us and helped us open up. The photos from this December day were cozy, comfortable, and felt completely like us! And finally the Big Day arrived! Natasha and Brian photographed our July 2023 wedding and the results were just perfect - more lovely than we could have dreamed. On top of that, we loved getting to hang out with them! They made our wedding day feel calmer, more relaxed, and allowed us to just be us. We highly recommend Natasha and Brian for all your engagement and wedding photography needs. They’re the best!
