You're not looking for a wedding day packed with obligations, expectations, or a timeline so full you barely get a chance to enjoy it. You want a celebration that feels relaxed, connected, and centered around the people you love most.
Maybe that looks like exchanging vows on the Oregon Coast, gathering around a dinner table with your favorite people, or spending the weekend in a cozy cabin tucked somewhere in the pines of the Pacific Northwest. However you choose to celebrate, your wedding should leave room to be present, soak it all in, and create memories you'll want to relive for years.
Tell Me What You're Dreaming Up
I help couples plan and document deeply personal and meaningful elopements, intimate weddings, and wedding weekends throughout Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. I've worked alongside so many kind-hearted humans who want something more than a traditional wedding. They want a day that feels connected, relaxed, and centered around their relationship and the people they love most.
Whether you're exchanging vows on a windswept stretch of the Oregon Coast, gathering around a dinner table with your favorite people, or planning a cozy weekend tucked away somewhere in the PNW, I'm here to make the whole process feel doable, fun, and genuinely enjoyable. I don't just show up with a camera. I bring years of experience, a calm presence, a deep love for storytelling, and a whole lot of heart.
Let's make your wedding day feel like the best parts of your relationship: joyful, meaningful, and rooted in what matters most.

Our experience with Rachel was nothing short of exceptional. She’s kind, calming, incredibly talented, and so easy to work with. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture such special memories. We’re forever grateful.
Let's trade the pressure for presence. The packed timeline for room to breathe. The expectation that everything has to be perfect for a day that's meaningful and entirely your own.
Do you love your people, but don’t want a big wedding with all eyes on you? Are you dreaming of an intimate wedding on the Oregon Coast or beyond? Do you simply want a day that’s honest and heartfelt (and filled with a stunning view, or two?).
From planning entire wedding days, scouting for perfect locations, bustling dresses, pinning boutonnieres, raging on the dance floor, and being a part of entire wedding weekends.. I love documenting my couples in the vast landscapes and cozy corners of their love.
And I can not wait to...
SEE YOU OUT THERE, FRIEND
