Oregon Coast Wedding Photography | Angelica & Stephen's Wedding at Ecola Point

Oregon Coast weddings are my absolute favorite to photograph. The landscape is breathtaking and there are so many beautiful hidden spots to take photos. Angelica & Stephen's wedding took place at Ecola Point in Ecola State Park, overlooking the ocean. The weather couldn't have been more perfect and I honestly had such an amazing time working for these families. The love was palpable. I didn't even need to ask Angelica & Stephen to kiss or pose for any of the photos because they were already being so adorable! The reception took place at a house not too far from the ceremony site, and it was intimate and laid back. They had an incredible French chef cook the food and I have to say it was some of the best wedding food I've had yet! Ugh, just love this wedding and this couple and everything about them. Congratulations, Angelica & Stephen! <3

Ashley & Justin's Engagement Session in Newport, Oregon | Portland, Oregon Wedding Photography

Ashley & Justin's Engagement session in Newport, Oregon is definitely in my top 3 engagement shoots so far. We started at the Oregon Coast Aquarium and then headed down the coast to Seal Rock State Park. I couldn't believe what an amazingly gorgeous location it was. The sun was casting magical light onto the water and I could not stop taking photos! I'm still in awe of the coast every time I go. I'm used to the flat east coast beaches, not the cliffs and giant rocks and seals everywhere! I love it so much. I also can't help but mention the fact that Chris and I saw a full double rainbow on the ocean the next morning during sunrise. Unforgettable. Ashley & Justin are so cute together and I couldn't be more excited to shoot their wedding next year. I'm also totally obsessed with Ashley's hair color. So incredible!

There are some pretty epic fish photos from the aquarium so be sure to check them out! & Don't miss the rest of the Holga images at the bottom of the post. Thanks for stopping by!

Heidi & Karl's Whimsical Wedding at McMenamin's Edgefield | Portland, Oregon Wedding Photography

  Heidi and Karl’s whimsical wedding at McMenamin’s Edgefield was perfectly executed. It was the first Quaker wedding I’ve ever photographed and I’m so glad I got to experience it. The ceremony is more meditative than a typical wedding. Guests can share a story or thought if they’d like, but there’s no pressure to speak. They exchanged their rings and vows, but somehow it was a bit more natural and personal. Each guest was considered a witness and signed their marriage certificate. It was intimate and emotional, but in a different sort of way. I loved it.

The details were a perfect representation of Heidi and Karl. Mini Diana cameras and rare books were found on every table, with vintage-y Alice in Wonderland inspired table settings. They had a typewriter for the guests to write messages and a Heidi & Karl themed crossword puzzle. I can only hope that my wedding is as beautiful, comfortable and magical as this one.

I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do! :) -Myles
