Absolutely—yes. Every couple deserves to feel seen, celebrated, and safe while getting married in Oregon (or anywhere, honestly). I’m here for queer love in all its forms, and it’s incredibly important to me that the vendors involved in your micro wedding or elopement feel the same way.

If you’re planning an Oregon wedding or elopement and you want to make sure you’re surrounded by people who genuinely support you. From inclusive officiants, florists, lodging hosts, and planners, I only recommend LGBTQ+ affirming vendors I trust.

Your wedding day should feel comfortable and true to who you are. I’m all in on creating that kind of experience, documenting your connection, and making sure you feel taken care of every step of the way.

Fuck yeah. Eloping in Oregon doesn’t have to mean running off just the two of you (unless that’s the dream). Your elopement can absolutely include your favorite humans.

Whether that’s 5 people or 15, we can plan a day that feels intimate, relaxed, and centered on connection, with a killer view in the mountains or a cozy Airbnb where the celebration turns into a weekend hang.

A lot of Oregon elopement locations are incredibly accessible for families and friends, and I’ll help you navigate permits, logistics, and timelines so everyone has the best time.

At the end of the day, it’s simple: bring the people who show up for you. Leave the rest off the invite list, and let’s make this feel like the best weekend ever… just with vows.

The short answer? There really isn't a bad time to get married in Oregon, just different kinds of magic.

Spring brings lush green forests, wildflowers, rushing waterfalls, and fewer crowds. It's one of my favorite times of year, but you'll want to embrace the possibility of a little rain (or a lot of rain, depending on Oregon's mood). Summer means long days, coastal sunsets, mountain lakes, and warm evenings. It's the most predictable season weather-wise, but it's also the busiest for visitors throughout much of the Pacific Northwest.

Fall is hard to beat. Crisp air, changing leaves, moody coastlines, and some of the most beautiful light of the entire year. If you're dreaming of cozy cabin weekends, campfires, and sweaters, this might be your season. Winter is wildly underrated. Think dramatic waves crashing along the Oregon Coast, mist rolling through the trees, fireplaces, hot drinks, and the kind of atmosphere that feels straight out of a movie.

Some of the most memorable wedding days happen when we lean into whatever the Pacific Northwest decides to throw our way.

Hellllll yes — this is one of my favorite parts of helping couples plan their Oregon wedding. There are so many cozy cabins, modern A-frames, coastal homes, and boutique lodges here that make the perfect home base for an intimate celebration.

While some vacation rental platforms have rules about hosting weddings, I’ll help you find venues, lodges, and private rentals that are actually wedding-friendly. I keep a running list of killer spots across the state and the entire Pacific Northwest.

We’ll talk about how many guests you’re inviting, how accessible the location needs to be, the kind of scenery you love, and whether you want the celebration to turn into a full weekend hang. Then I’ll send over options that fit your exact vibe so you can relax and get excited about being all in one place with your favorite people.

Oregon weather is... a little moody. It can be sunny, rainy, windy, foggy, and then sunny again all within the same hour. But that's part of the magic. Some of the most memorable wedding days happen when we embrace whatever the Pacific Northwest decides to throw our way.

I always build backup options into your timeline and locations so we can pivot if we need to. We can shift to a more sheltered spot, pause for a bit and head back out when things clear, or lean into the cozy vibes with jackets, blankets, and a slower pace. Some of the best moments happen in the in-between.

But here's the deal: if the weather reaches the point where you're not going to enjoy your day or my gear is at risk, we don't force it. We reschedule. Your elopement or micro wedding should feel like one of the best days of your life, not a survival challenge haha. We'll make the call together and make sure you still get the celebration you deserve.

Super 8 is real film — like honest-to-god rolls of Kodak stock loaded into a vintage camera that’s been capturing life long before we were here. After your wedding, I send those rolls to the film lab to be developed. It takes time, but that wait is part of the magic. That’s what gives it that nostalgic, cinematic, “instant memory” vibe everyone (me included) is obsessed with.

Soundwise, the original cameras don’t record audio, but if you want your vows, a letter to each other, or those “holy shit we’re married” laughs layered in, I’ll mic you up and weave it into the final film. It ends up feeling like the best home movie you’ve ever seen, the kind you watch years from now and instantly get thrown right back into that moment.

Most Super 8 wedding films end up around 2–5 minutes long. The perfect length to hit you in the gut with nostalgia and still leave you wanting to watch it again (and again).

Couples love Super 8 because it makes the energy of the day come to life. Imagine reliving how the wind felt in your hair or your hands squeezing tight, the champagne popping a little too hard, and your people laughing in the background. The grain, the flicker, the light leaks… it all feels like rewatching a memory instead of watching a camera try to document it. It’s gloriously imperfect in the most magical way — emotional and nostalgic. And that’s exactly why it hits so damn hard.

Absolutely. While a lot of my couples book both photography and Super 8 videography together, you can 1000% hire me just as your Oregon Super 8 wedding videographer. If you already have a photographer you love, no problem—I’ll be there capturing the motion, the energy, and all the little moments that deserve to live on film, turning your celebration into a nostalgic home movie you’ll never get over.

I offer standalone Super 8 film coverage for elopements, micro weddings, and even full wedding weekends. And yes, I’ll travel anywhere. If your celebration takes us from any corner of Oregon to the red desert landscapes of Utah, the Rockies in Colorado, or even international, I’ll happily pack my film and meet you there.
