Your love story is one of a kind, and your photos should reflect that. I document weddings and elopements with an honest, storytelling approach, focusing on authentic moments so you can relive the day exactly as it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our wedding photographer! We had a more formal, traditional wedding, which wasn’t the type of wedding Lauren typically shoots. However, after just one call with her, we felt completely confident that she was more than capable of capturing our wedding, and she definitely exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, she was easy to communicate with and always responsive to our questions or concerns. We were particularly impressed by how she remembered all the little details we discussed over multiple conversations, ensuring the day was captured exactly as we envisioned. The entire photo experience was effortless and enjoyable, and we ended up with stunning photos that we absolutely love. The value we received for the quality of her work far exceeded our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the PNW. Thank you so much, Lauren, for creating lasting memories from our unforgettable day!

Hey there! I'm Katie, a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. Capturing magical moments through photography is my passion and I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to do what I love for a living. My goal is to create beautiful, timeless images that will transport you back to your wedding day every time you look at them. Aside from being a photographer, I'm also a mom to two human kids and 3 fur babies, and I've been married to my high school sweetheart/boy next door for 17 years. I love coffee, Gilmore Girls, and scrolling TikTok ;p

There are hardly words to describe how grateful we are to have worked with Katie! She captured our wedding day in a way that absolutely exceeded our hopes and expectations. She was so easy to work with, super flexible, super communicative, super helpful. She helped us get organized and advised us in ways to help the day run smoothly (both from a photography perspective and from a general logistics point of view as well). Her turn around time on photos was exceptionally quick and we have loved seeing our day through her lens. We cannot recommend Katie enough!!

We're Hunter and Lindsey Wickert! We're a husband and wife photographer team based out of Vancouver, Washington! We love doing what we do best— we make your photos feel like your memories. Whether that means walking along the beach near Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach with you, snow-shoeing up at the foot of Mt. St. Helens for your Engagement Photoshoot, following you down the aisle in some of our gorgeous Pacific Northwest scenery, or playing in piles of leaves for your beautiful family photos and getting those magical shots. We want you to be able to look back at our work and feel exactly how you felt the moment we took them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lindsey and Hunter Wickert of The Wickerts' Photography for our wedding, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience and the stunning photos they captured. From our initial consultation to the final delivery of our photos, Lindsey and Hunter demonstrated exceptional professionalism, creativity, and a genuine passion for their craft. Their ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera was remarkable. As a couple who isn't naturally at ease being photographed, we were initially apprehensive. However, Lindsey and Hunter's warm personalities and easygoing approach quickly put us at ease, allowing them to capture authentic, candid moments that truly reflect our relationship. The quality of their work is outstanding. Our photos are vibrant, emotive, and beautifully composed, perfectly encapsulating the joy and love of our special day. Their unique style—a blend of candid and editorial photography—resulted in a collection of images that feel both timeless and personal. Moreover, their professionalism was evident throughout the entire process. They were punctual, responsive, and attentive to our needs and preferences. Their collaborative approach made us feel valued and heard, and their enthusiasm was infectious, adding an extra layer of joy to our wedding day. We wholeheartedly recommend The Wickerts' Photography to any couple seeking a talented and passionate photography team. Lindsey and Hunter have a remarkable ability to capture the essence of a moment, creating beautiful memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,300

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.

Georgy Shishkin Photography

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

Hi, I'm Georgy Shishkin — a wedding and elopement photographer with over 19 years of experience capturing love stories in breathtaking landscapes. Based in Oregon, I photograph weddings across the Pacific Northwest, California, and British Columbia. My background in photojournalism taught me how to anticipate real emotion, while my years in wedding photography taught me how to guide and support couples in front of the camera. I love helping people who’ve never modeled before feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely connected. Every story is personal to me — I’m not just your photographer, I’m your teammate throughout the day.

It is difficult to express in words all my admiration for the photos taken by Georgy!!! When I saw the finished photos, I had tears of happiness in my eyes, how subtly, sensually he conveyed our great love! We are so beautiful and happy! This is something incredible! Full delight! I will never get tired of saying a huge thank you to him for such a great job! Georgy is a wonderful person with whom it is comfortable and easy to relax in the frame!

Skylar Coonan Photography

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Skyler on an intimate wedding and her and her crew could not have been more personable, professional, or reliable. Her caring demeanor set the mood for the day and made everyone feel so welcome. Her and her team's vision for shots were unique and beautiful, truly capturing the essence of the day. Cannot wait to work with them again!

Established and experienced photographer, and all around nice guy! Pictures tell a story, and we will work together to capture yours. Candid, posed, individuals, groups, getting ready, decorations…it all goes in to an album you’ll be smiling at today, and for several years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tyler was both professional and easy going! He was reassuring about our outdoor venue and backdrop choices. He listened to our requests and was able to adapt quickly, capturing some beautiful posed and candid moments. He is mindful of backdrop and directed folks kindly, moving purses and plants to frame us. The photos turned out well lit framed and easily downloadable. So I could share them right way.

BEST FORM OF COMMUNICATION: INQUIRE VIA WEBSITE !! Hello, I am delighted you are here! My name is Rosie.​ I’m deeply passionate about capturing your intimate moments and creating stunning, timeless images that you’ll treasure for years to come. My approach to photography focuses on capturing the essence of naturalness, freedom, love, boldness, brightness, and the richness of the present moment. I believe that every photo should tell a story and evoke emotions that make you smile, laugh, or even shed a tear.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rosie is truly one of the best photographers out there! She is so genuine, authentic, down-to-earth, and creative. All of these qualities and many more made her an absolute joy to work with. She is prompt, professional, and knows what she is doing! From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, Rosie captured moments I never could have imagined - but most importantly (and what makes her so good) is that she captured us! My husband and I are a bit shy and reserved when it comes to having photos taken, but she made us feel comfortable and brought out our personalities in both our engagement and wedding photos. Rosie made the perfect timeline for our wedding day to flow seamlessly and captured so many detailed photos that were all stunning. Rosie was also very sensitive about sharing our intimate photos in public platforms. We will be working with her for future photos and highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you so much for everything!

Hi, I'm Christina! Here to make you feel comfortable and empowered during your shoot, I have over ten years of experience behind the lens. I specialize in engagements and elopements, using the beauty of nature to capture life's most precious moments. I strive to feel more like a friend than a vendor, promising to be there as a sounding board any time. I'll provide as much or as little guidance - from posing to editing to shot list - as you desire. Thank you for letting me help make the shoot of your dreams a reality!

Christina took our engagement photos and they are truly some of my favorite pictures of the two of us. Neither of us had participated in a photo shoot since our senior pictures so we were a little anxious going into it, but Christina’s calm presence, sense of humor, and great direction helped ease of nerves immediately. I love that she really was able to capture our playful dynamic in our pictures and nothing felt too stiff or posed. We will definitely be using her again for future family shoots and recommending her to everyone we know! Thank you again Christina!!

Portland, OR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $750

I’ve been attached to my camera for the past 15 years and have done a little of everything, with work appearing in Marie Claire, on book covers, in web catalogues and in family albums. Whatever your needs are, I’ll be happy to curate exactly what you want. My shoots are fun, relaxed, and range from quirky to poetic. I choose to set my prices at a competitive rate because I don’t think that professional, quality photos should be a luxury item — they should be accessible to everyone. Thank you so much for allowing me to document precious moments in your life!

My daughter hired Marlarkey Media for her wedding and I thought the results were wonderful. So many great candid shots of the people who were there celebrating on top of all the important couple photos. And tho I am no expert, I thought her photo editing was really perfect, but probably because she erased just the right number of wrinkles from the mother of the bride--I know I look better but no one else would be able to tell. This was an easy five stars.

Portland, OR
  • Classic style

Thanks so much for taking the time to see if I might be a good fit to photograph your wedding! I've found that one of the most important factors in a great wedding is enjoying the people you surround yourself with. Since I will basically be your third wheel on one of the best days of your life it's important that we click well! That said, some things I’m passionate about include photography(obviously), the NBA, vinyl records, pretty movies and tv shows with no story, and a ton of other stuff. I tend to be pretty enthusiastic so if you think “I wonder if Nate is into..." I likely am!

Nate Meeds was the perfect wedding photographer for us. From the beginning, his communication was quick and easy, making the whole process stress-free. Nate has such a fun, easygoing personality that put us at ease during the photo sessions - which was great, since I don't really enjoy having my picture taken! Despite my discomfort, Nate made it so easy and the final photos turned out amazing. His work is truly great quality and captured all the special moments of our wedding day, especially the epic dance party photos that are unmatched. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out and would highly recommend Nate Meeds to any couple looking for a fantastic wedding photographer.
