Hi, there!
I see you.
You're the one seeking adventure and freedom to be exactly who you are in all the aspects of your life, including your wedding or elopement day!
I can tell you right now if you enjoy all things life + connection then you're in the right place. If you're one of those people who can't help but keep turning corners in the mountain trails even when your fingertips are chilled + your legs burn then you're in the right place. If you like the feeling of the color green & sand between your toes then you're in the right place. Life is about nothing but connecting with others so let's photograph your life + document your world.
Are you struggling to let go of the unrealistic expectations and so-called "traditional" aspects of planning your easy going, adventurous, and fun Pacific Northwest wedding or elopement?
I totally get it! It's tough; with all the pressure from industry "experts" and even your own relatives to facilitate a flawless and enjoyable day for everyone else but yourself, it can suck the fun and true focus right out of your day.
I'm here to tell you to take back your narrative! It's your freaking wedding day and you can make it ANYTHING you want it to be. From having an adventure filled weekend of climbing mountains or off roading in the desert with your closest friends and family to hosting an elegant and bohemian garden party beneath the oak grove of your parents' backyard, I AM THERE FOR IT. And I'll be cheering you on the whole way to stay true to your hearts and desires while helping coordinate and document the wedding or elopement day of your dreams in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

REVIEW:
"I can’t say enough good things about Jen. My Husband and I had the most wonderful experience with her and how she works. So easy going and so fun to be around. She fit right in with our personalities, making the engagement photos and wedding day a breeze! She knows how to make you feel comfortable yet have so much fun and when you get you pictures back you will be amazed. I will continue to hire Jen for all future photo opportunities and recommend her to anyone and everyone! Thank you Jen for capturing those special moments. You are truly so talented at what you do❤️" - Regan J, 
REVIEW:
"Jen was such a pleasure to work with! She was flexible with planning pre-shoot, provided great input on where to meet for the best views and was prompt with all communication. Jen made us feel so comfortable and at ease during our session, we had so much fun! And in the end, the wait was totally worth it as our photos turned out better than we could have imagined! She provided so much variety and it's impossible to pick a favourite. I would highly recommend Jen if you want to have fun and have wonderful memories to cherish forever!" - Kendra L. |
REVIEW:
"I am so grateful that we hired Jen to take photos for our July wedding. I can share a few photos in this review, but what we can't share is our whole portfolio! Jen took hundreds of stunning photos that captured so many beautiful moments with each other and our guests. Jen is a person who relishes the beauty of nature and relationships, and photographs those moments so other people can see that beauty too. In addition, Jen is intentional about making it easy to work with her. Her wedding package included an engagement photo shoot which allowed us to get comfortable with each other before the day of the wedding. She is relaxed and confident in her craft. On the day of our wedding, it was so good to have someone around us who was not stressed, and who could gently remind us to pause and be present in the moment. Jen's work product is amazing and so worth it. We can't wait to work with her again." - Kelsi C.

"How do I ELOPE in Oregon?"
How to elope in Oregon: deciding to do it is honestly the hardest part! So if you've already done that, then you are ahead of the game.
There are thousands of resources for couples planning a traditional wedding, yet somehow for those planning an elopement, it can be slim when searching for advice, vendors, or locations specific to your vision (not just the most seen on social media). That's where I come in! I have been shooting and helping coordinate kickass elopements for adventurous couples in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest for over 5 years. And not to mention my extensive experience of hiking all over the region since I was a child because I was born and raised in a small rural town in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, in the shadow of our beautiful mother Mt. Hood. And that's just the beginning; the geography choices are vast in Oregon and I can help you choose which one is right for you. There are mountains, deserts, alpine lakes, and handicap accessible trails so trust me when I say there is a perfect location for you and your person to elope in Oregon.
From helping find sustainably forward florists and hand letterers, scouting and choosing locations, to creating an epic itinerary of adventures or not creating one at all, I am DOWN. I can help you bring the day of your dreams to life without any of the unnecessary stress! So if you want to ELOPE with your lover in Oregon, hit me up, like, yesterday HERE.
Much love,
Jen
