A Wild-Hearted Eye for Wedding Stories
Weddings are full of emotion, movement, and meaning—and I bring a deep love of adventure to every moment I photograph. Before becoming a wedding photographer, I spent years riding my motorcycle across the world—through the winding roads of India, the deserts of Africa, the coastlines of Europe, and all over the USA. That journey taught me to notice the in-between moments, the beauty in chaos, and the quiet magic that happens when two people choose each other. My work is shaped by that same sense of curiosity and wonder—capturing your wedding day with intention, authenticity, and an eye for the real.
Oregon Weddings
I feel incredibly fortunate to do what I do—capturing one of the most meaningful days in a person’s life. These photographs aren’t just images; they’re memories you’ll carry forever. The quiet glances, the tearful vows, the way the light hits as you say “I do”—these moments become part of your legacy. Long after the cake is gone and the flowers have faded, your photos will tell the story to your children, and their children, for generations to come. It’s an honor I never take lightly.
Work with a Native Oregonian Who Knows the Magic
As a born-and-raised Oregonian, I know the landscapes that make this state unforgettable—from misty coastlines to golden high desert. I’ve spent years exploring the scenic routes, secret spots, and local charm that make Oregon a dream wedding destination.
When you work with me, you’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re gaining a local guide, creative partner, and storyteller who’s passionate about capturing weddings with depth, emotion, and a deep love for this wild and beautiful place.
Before launching Wild Pines Photography, I spent over 10 years as an event producer, bringing large-scale brand experiences to life for companies like Adidas, American Eagle, and Verizon. That fast-paced, detail-driven world taught me how to plan with precision, adapt quickly, and create unforgettable moments—skills I now bring to every elopement and intimate wedding I photograph. As a freelance photographer, my work has also been featured in Oprah Magazine, ELLE, and HuffPost, blending storytelling with intentional artistry to capture moments that feel as meaningful as they look.
