Capturing magical moments through photography is my passion and I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to do what I love for a living.

JD and his partner were so great! From engagement photos to planning out photos and the flow of the day he was very easy to work with. On our wedding day they were everywhere capturing every moment. We felt very comfortable with them and nothing felt disingenuous. Our deliverable photos and videos were given to us so fast. They were beautiful and so well edited, and contained wonderful surprises. Highly recommend hiring!

Hello! I'm Kendra, the face behind Kendi Photos. My style of wedding photography is a mix of candid and formal shots, ensuring a diverse array of photos in your gallery. My favorite part of wedding photography is being there for all the behind the scenes action that the guests don't get to see, especially intimate first look moments. I edit on the side of bright and true to color, enhancing photos without changing the entire vibe. I serve the Pacific Northwest and am based out of the Portland, OR area.

Forget tradition. Screw the rules. You deserve photos that reflect your life, personality, and style, not some cookie-cutter session that looks like everyone else's. My name is Daniela (she/her). I'm a plus size, super tall queer. I'm detailed and organized, but am laid-back and will pivot quickly to adapt to changing circumstances. I believe in equity and inclusiveness of all loves, body types, and beings.  My favorite movie is Nightmare Before Christmas, I regularly rate dogs' butts, and I believe the highest compliment is being called "scrappy." 

Awarded Best of Zola
I am so so glad that I found Daniela to be the photographer for my wedding. She was easy to work with, great communication, excellent attention to detail and her work is stunning! She is truly a professional at making sure you get the perfect photos. She captured my wedding so beautifully and I am forever thankful for the memories she created for me and my family!

Hey, I'm Emily! A natural light photographer based in Portland Oregon who specializes in true-to-color edits and authentic captures. Like many photogs out there, I picked up a camera really young and haven’t put it down since. I never wanted to forget parts of my childhood and young adulthood, so it became second nature for me to document the things I loved with photographs in a very real and candid way. Fast forward to today, I couldn’t feel luckier that this hobby became a career focused on preserving life’s most precious moments for others. Who will be the girl behind the camera hyping you up while capturing some authentic moments?

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working with Simply Wandering Photography for our wedding, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Emily captured the most beautiful moments of our special day with perfection. The photos are not just pictures; they are pieces of art that will be cherished for a lifetime. Looking through the photos, it’s as if I’m reliving the most magical moments all over again. The candid shots are heartwarming, and the posed photos are elegant and timeless. I am beyond blessed and I can’t thank Emily enough for their incredible work. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who will go the extra mile to make your day unforgettable, look no further!! I highly recommend Simply Wandering Photography for their exceptional talent, professionalism, and passion for what they do. It was an honor being photographed by Emily!

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.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. 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. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts!

My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

Imagine a wedding day that feels like stepping into your favorite storyline —intimate, magical, and unapologetically yours. I help craft experiences for couples who value creativity, intentionality, and a touch of wonder. My photography is a blend of both documentary and editorial, combined in such a way that feels authentic and timeless. From windswept vows on a mountaintop to quiet toasts in a mossy forest. Based in Oregon, I specialize in elopements that celebrate your individuality and sentimental parts of your story. Let’s create some truly magical photographs—together.

We initially planned to elope at Crater Lake, which led us to Mia and Imagine Elopements. However, as the date approached, we opted to elope at our beautiful rented property to avoid added stress. Mia was exceptional throughout the planning process. She is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also friendly, attentive, and highly responsive, going above and beyond in her follow-through. Her expertise regarding Crater Lake, including permits, trails, and requirements, was impressive. She even contacted the park on our behalf to ensure everything was in order. Mia also knows the surrounding areas well and recommends trustworthy local vendors and activities geared toward our interests. Mia truly understood our vision for a stress-free, enjoyable day with our kids in a natural setting. Her flexibility (including her willingness to officiate our ceremony as well) allowed us to experience the day our way, resulting in photos that perfectly capture all of the emotions of the day. We adore the photos and relive our special day every time we look at them!

Oregon Coast based. I love creating a full experience for my couples, and really developing a friendship so we can make your day truly you! Yes, I’ll be dancing at your wedding. I started my business after an incredibly hard personal loss because photos became a huge part of my grief journey. I love capturing the raw and real moments, the ones you look back on and wish you could have forever. Photos are timeless and I love creating small forever moments in time. I care deeply for my clients! If you’re ready to get barefoot, maybe a little messy and live in the moment I’m the photographer for you!

I can't express enough how happy we were to have Renee. She just so happened to be in town the weekend of our wedding so we didn't even have to pay a travel fee which she never had to do! She was a breath of fresh air in actually feeling like she was appreciative to be our photographer. After a long period of planning I was starting to feel like vendors were acting like they could care less to be selected and Renee was COMPLETELY the opposite. She sent us the sweetest personal touches and dug through all her photos to show me examples of photos that really mattered to me. I wanted more candid photos and she did not disappoint. Even when going through a lot in her personal life, she was there 100% on our day which was so amazing and I will have these photos forever to always remind me of our special day. We tried doing some phots before the ceremony and everyone wanted to come say hi or congratulations and Renee was amazing at being my personal bodyguard and keeping people at bay. She is the best!!
