  • Starts at $950

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I live in Oregon with my husband and our two cats Clara & Leonardo. We love exploring the Pacific Northwest, but we've also been able to travel throughout the states and overseas.

t was so fun working with Naomi! We told Naomi we wanted a romantic classic look and that is what she delivered! She is able to capture things at your wedding that maybe you over looked or didn’t have time to see, which makes it little more special to look back at those photos. Naomi was exactly what we needed on our day. She is sweet, kind, and is caring to your needs. She makes your day less stressed cause she is all about having your day be fun and about you and your spouse! I highly recommend Northwest Hearts Photography!

Congrats on your upcoming wedding! I love capturing the authentic emotions and natural moments that unfold during a wedding.

You can count on me to be your biggest cheerleader during this process and to beautifully document your day so you can relive these memories for the rest of your lives.

Holly was the best wedding photographer I have ever worked with, and I have been in at least 9 weddings. She was very skilled- she knew how to help us relax yet get good poses. She was discreet- I don't remember seeing her the entire wedding although she was definitely around as her photographs from many angles show. She got all the shots we wanted yet was not stressed or uptight. She took initiative and was prepared. She was very warm and friendly; we felt really good about having her join our family for the special day. Also her development of our photos was timely and professional. I have no negative things to say, only positive.

This girl!! I couldn’t say enough good things. She is flexible and open to do whatever or go wherever and she makes it easy. It can be weird posing but it never feels that way, it always feels like we are just hanging out with friends. Quality wise, I had someone walk in my house and tell me our pictures looked like they were straight out of pottery barn and couldn’t believe we had someone take them and that they weren’t something done for a professional company. I would never and will never have anyone else take our pictures again and can’t wait to grow our family and have every season documented by Nikki. Just book with her, you won’t regret it!

I am a PNW girl, wife of my middle school sweetheart, Logan, and mama to three lazy kitties and a puppy. Most of the time you will catch me reading, taking long scenic drives with Logan, or sitting in watching a rom-com. Being engaged, and now married (still can’t believe it), has given me such a deep perspective of what a being a bride is really like. From day one, my goal is to capture what was real, with nothing forced or too posed. I want to tell stories. I want you to look at my images and feel something.

We had Sierra storm photography photograph our wedding and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. We get compliments on our pictures all the time. She was punctual and so kind and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera.

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.

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.

I am a Portland native through and through! My love for photography rivals only my love of traveling. My interest in photography began at a young age, thanks to my Uncle and 8th grade math teacher. 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. I have a deep passion for not only the images I create but for the people I work with. I truly consider it an honor to be a part of someone’s wedding day and the images we create together become reflective memories for the couple, not just snapshots in time.

When searching for "wedding photographer in Portland," we had lots of options. We decided to interview several, and Cambrae immediately stood out to us. She has a wonderful, fun loving, outgoing personality and she does a great job of explaining things in a relatable way. Many of our wedding guests complimented us on how great her energy was. We had a dog-friendly wedding at Mt. Hood Skibowl, and she did a great job of photographing us, our guests, and our even our furry guests too. She is also very timeline oriented and extremely organized. I highly recommend Cambrae if you're on the hook and not sure who to go with.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Going into a small and intimate wedding, we knew our photographer was going to be one of the most important choices we made, and choosing Nadia ended up being the BEST decision we made. She made the entire process effortless and fun, and she was there for us every step of the way. As a LGBTQ couple, her clear display of support for all love made her stand out to us immediately, and the way she treated us from the day we first emailed her until now makes it clear that she is the #1 ally we have ever met. This was a destination wedding for us, so Nadia’s experience and expertise in photographing couples in the PNW was even more valuable to us. We would be in the midst of planning and would think, “Huh I wonder about *insert any wedding question or issue here*” and we would wake up the next morning to an email from Nadia covering all of the topics we had discussed privately and hadn’t even asked her yet. She is just that on top of things and is always one step ahead of her clients throughout the entire process. She is THAT GOOD. All jokes aside, any time we did have questions or need advice, she would get back to us quickly with such thorough and thoughtful answers that really proved we were more than just clients to her. She cares like a friend and her attention to detail is astonishing. From an amazing engagement photo shoot that took up her entire Sunday, which yielded the most stunning photos that brought tears to our eyes, to the most memorable wedding day spent with her prioritizing our wishes as a couple, we could not recommend Nadia enough. She made us both feel comfortable to be ourselves in front of the camera and did an amazing job highlighting our love. For anybody who is looking into hiring Nadia to capture your special day, this is your sign to DO IT!! You will not find anybody better. She goes above and beyond in every way and truly made our experience the most memorable. We are not from the PNW, but Nadia was so amazing that we now joke we will fly her to us any time we need photos taken in the future.

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.

Dionne goes the extra mile to make stellar photographs. She is so kind and easy to work with. Her response time is fast and her photos are so crisp and professionally executed. I would highly recommend Dionne for any photography needs.

My husband and I can’t say enough how pleased we were with our video and our overall experience with Amative Creative! From the first phone call, Andrea was friendly and professional, and she really listened to what was important to us when it came to capturing and editing our video. On our big day, her team came prepared knowing what was important to us, and was able to think on their feet when rain came and adjusted some plans! To top it off, they made all the little moments that much more fun! Once our big day was over, Andrea was professional and communicative with the editing process, and they delivered the most amazing wedding video! I will be honest and say that I have watched it almost every day since getting it back, it truly encompasses all the feelings that we felt on our big day and helps us relive them again and again! We love Amative Creative and I will always recommend them for your wedding videography needs!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Love Knot Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Isaac has an incredible eye and attention to detail, and it shows in the end result. I'm really glad to have had his expertise in setting up our wedding day timeline, and he delivered everything I was hoping for and much more in the final photos. His use of lighting and the natural environment is really special. The natural aesthetic of the finished photos is gorgeous. I have a large family and it was no easy task to deal with their different personalities and requests and Love Knot handled everything perfectly. The entire time throughout this process of planning and throwing a wedding Isaac has been very responsive and willing to help us with any questions we have anytime. It's an art to create photos this special, and another type of art to manage a business and respond to the individual needs of a client. And it's beautiful to see both come together so seamlessly. I will definitely be recommending Love Knot Photography to any of my family or friends who may be searching for a photographer.

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!

Photos mean so much to us, and I couldn't be happier that we trusted her for our wedding and engagement photos. She is communicative, friendly, responsive, and punctual. She has amazing instincts and did an incredible job of making us feel relaxed on both of our shoot days. She captures a perfect balance of staged and candid photos with perfect composition. Sneak peeks were provided for our photos and the full libraries were delivered on time in an easy to access format. I appreciated the surveys she sends out to get to know you better before shooting. I genuinely could keep going and going! We chose Skylar because of her offered packages and photographic style and it was absolutely one of the best choices we made throughout the entire process. She is the first recommendation I will give to friends and family; we have received so many compliments on the gorgeous pictures. I am so happy that the precious, priceless memories of our wedding day are captured in such beauty forever! Thank you!!!!!!

My wife and I got married in December, and after our honeymoon and getting back into the swing of our busy lives filled with travel and work, I’m finally getting around to writing this. Honestly, choosing KND Photography was the best decision we made for our wedding. From our first chat, both Kinjo and Dawa dai were so attentive to what we wanted in our photos and really understood our style. On the wedding day and during the reception, they made us feel so comfortable and confident. They assured us through their gestures and communication that everything was under control, letting us truly enjoy our day without any worries. Everything did go as smoothly as they promised. We had been worried we wouldn’t have any frame-worthy shots based on past experiences with other photographers. But with KND, we ended up with too many favorites to choose from!

Lucia is the most genuine and talented photographer - if you have any doubts, let them go! You won’t be disappointed by working with her :) Lucia captured our wedding back in July 2022 and the photo quality, the shots, and entire process was JUST what we wanted. From the initial consultation, I knew working with her would be a great fit because she was professional, passionate about her work, collaborative with ideas and also provided direction when I was unsure. The day of, we didn’t have to worry about anything because she worked with our wedding planner to ensure the shots we wanted got done, and taking the photos with her felt so natural! From giggly and candid to artistic and dramatic couple shots, Lucia captured a wide array of poses of us that are absolutely timeless. While there was a technical issue with some of the photos, Lucia handled the situation with grace and sincere apologies. We were lucky to get a discount and a complimentary session with her to make up for the loss of photos - and honestly it couldn’t have worked out more perfectly… the following year she came out to our town and took our maternity shoot 3 All of the photos she’s taken of us have captured the love my husband and I share, and it’s such a wonderful keepsake to have for the rest of our lives. It’s wild to think that our relationship with Lucia started with just shooting our wedding, to our maternity sessions, and soon-to-be baby session. She’s truly captured our love story and each major milestone, and now we’ve gained a friend in the process :) We can’t thank her enough for everything and the time and effort she puts into producing stunning galleries for her clients is well worth it. We can’t recommend her enough!

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!

My travels, my writing (certified art school kid), and my big family have brought me from that inquisitive, emotional child to the woman I am today: knee deep in wonder & riverbeds, usually mid-laugh, and so full of gratitude for my life I can hardly contain it to language.

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."

If you're in search of a photographer who will capture your wedding day seamlessly & eloquently...look no further. I can't rave enough about how beautiful our wedding day album turned out. From planned shots to the candids, it's exactly what I had envisioned. Katilin did such an awesome job of maneuvering around grabbing shots here and there and snapping shots of our day authentically. On top of it all, she was so friendly which made the experience even sweeter. It was easy to be comfortable around her and open up to the pictures. After the wedding day, sneak peek pictures were delivered promptly and she continued to keep us in the know of when to expect the full album. I would highly recommend her to any couple getting married!

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.

My (now) husband and I found Kyle through a random google search, and I cannot believe how lucky we got. In our first meeting with Kyle, he showed us beautiful examples of his work, and his professionalism and skill was immediately apparent. We had not planned to do an engagement shoot, but his work was so beautiful that we decided to go for it - and I’m grateful we did. It helped us feel more comfortable in front of the camera, and with Kyle. Even our dog liked him :) On the day of our wedding, a huge snow storm hit unexpectedly, and we were scared no one would show. Not only did Kyle show up, but he made what could have been a disaster into a gift, taking some beautiful shots in the cold :) His photography from the wedding is a gift I will treasure for the rest of my life. His portraits of us, family pictures, and candid shots, were all stunning. We wed in a venue with low lighting, and Kyle worked wonderfully with it. We also ordered a beautiful wedding album from him. I could not recommend Kyle enough!

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.

Hiya, I’m Alison! I’m a wedding photographer who aims to create legacy’s that combine the natural beauty of the scenery, the true and unique beauty of relationships and aid my couples by giving direction that brings out natural moments. I also aim to edit my photos in way that keeps the natural beauty and makes them timeless and not part of a trendy fad edit.
