An Oregon Coast Elopement

Kristy and Logan have travelled the world together. Fate brought these two together while touring across Europe years ago. The day of their elopement was special. There was a sense of spontaneity and relaxation to it all. The location on the Oregon coast was decided a couple days before and the spontaneity of their “up-for-anything” attitude made the shoot fun. They ended their elopement shoot with a backdrop of Cannon Beach, a glow of sunset, and a run into the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean as newlyweds.

A Washington Mountain Elopement

Tiffany and Colby moved to the Pacific Northwest over three years ago in search of the mountains. Their cross country move from West Virginia landed them in stunning state of Washington. As their love grew so did their love for the captivating peaks. Colby and Tiffany live a dynamic and adventurous life, spending most weekends in the backcountry with their samoyed pup, Romeo. They knew a mountain elopement is what they wanted.

An Urban Forest Wedding

Kennedy and Benjamin are college sweethearts that enjoy all things outdoors, traveling (they lived in Bali!), trying new foods and meditation. When they got engaged, they knew they wanted to have an intimate wedding in the middle of a forest somewhere. The Hoyt Arboretum was a great choice and one of the most unique elopement locations in Oregon.

A Cannon Beach Wedding

Chelsea and Morgan were the sweetest couple to work with and was ecstatic when I found out their wedding was taking place in the Cannon Beach area. The stretches of coastlines are some of the most picturesque in the Pacific Northwest. It is also one of my favorite places to go on the weekend due to its’ public access, stretches of beautiful tide pools, rocky beaches and Jurassic Park-like forests.

A Silcox Hut Wedding at Timberline Lodge

Sallie + Aaron’s spring wedding on the snowy slopes of Mount Hood could take your breath away. Their intimate wedding was held at the historic Silcox Hut in Timberline Lodge. The day was truly a dream. Many mountaineers know that the weather on Mount Hood can be temperamental and can change very quickly.

A Rowena Plateau Wedding

Rebecca + Aaron’s Columbia River Gorge elopement was one for the books. The couple shared a small ceremony overlooking the Columbia River on the Rowena Plateau Trail at Tom McCall Preserve just over an hour outside of Portland, Oregon. The Rowena Plateau is a piece of majestic public land is managed by the Nature Conservancy, Mayer State Park and the forestry service.
