Your wedding should feel like your wedding, not a photoshoot.

You only get one chance to experience your wedding day.

It deserves more than worrying about the timeline, spending hours away from your guests, or performing for the camera.
Our job is to help you experience your wedding—not manage it.
We’ll guide you when you need direction, step back when the moments matter most, and quietly adapt to whatever the day brings—so you can stay fully present with the people you love while we preserve the moments that will bring you back to how your wedding felt.

You want a team that quietly handles the unexpected, keeps the day moving with ease, and gives you the freedom to be fully present.


You want photographs and films that won’t just remind you what your wedding looked like fifty years from now—they’ll bring you back to exactly how it felt.

“everything was a blur.”

Several months after her wedding, she sent us this message.

“Hi Kate! I just wanted to share that I love this photo so much!
I’m so grateful for it, because everything is such a blur from walking down the aisle and through the whole ceremony. It’s so amazing to see everyone like this.
Thanks for your thoughtful shots. We’re so happy with the whole gallery.”

Weddings pass so quickly that entire moments disappear into memory. This photograph was taken only seconds before the ceremony, but today it preserves the quiet moments before she walked down the aisle—her parents, grandparents, and closest friends waiting together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions couples ask before reaching out.

Yes! We absolutely love elopements and micro-weddings. It’s so special to just have a handful of people present on wedding day, and to be able to focus on those close relationships and you as a couple. Please reach out!

The best place to start is by filling out our contact form. Immediately after filling it out, you’ll receive an auto-reply email with our full package list and investment breakdown. Within 48 hours, we will get back to you with our availability for your wedding date. After an initial call or coffee chat to discuss your wedding photo + video goals, we will send a contract your way. Once signed, your wedding date is locked in!

Yes and yes! Our full day wedding packages include credit to cover an engagement session, bridal session (couple in wedding outfits on a day other than wedding OR bride in her dress for a solo portrait session), or it can be applied to a second photographer/videographer on wedding day. We believe in creating photo/video packages that are tailored to you and your wedding!

Communication is key! If we know ahead of time about big personalities, we can help step in to direct and prevent situations on wedding day. Little things like not having Uncle Bob and Aunt Linda stand together during family photos can make a world of difference!

Yes– We are based in Portland, Oregon, and include 2 hours (one-way) of travel in our wedding and elopement packages. Depending on date availability, we can totally travel farther than the Portland-metro area. 🙂 If your wedding is going to take place outside of the Pacific Northwest, please reach out early so that we can coordinate travel plans and additional pieces as needed.

You will receive a sneak peek gallery (typically 150-200 photo from throughout the day) and a 1-minute teaser film within two weeks of wedding day. The full gallery and film will be delivered within 3 months of the wedding.
