Madison
(She/her)

Madison was born and raised in the PNW. She grew up bringing her point and shoot camera everywhere she went. Her passion continued into adulthood as she found the importance of capturing the big moments, small moments, and everything in between. Madison is a mom to two wonderful kids, is a lifelong vegetarian, and will always have a love for The Beatles. She values telling a detailed story through her photographs.

Ashley
(She/her)

When Ashley isn’t behind the camera, you can find her either on the trails with her husband and wonder dog or haunting a local bookshop. Ashley will be the first to admit that she spends WAYYY too much time on Tiktok for someone who is 30, but she likes to think that it keeps her “hip with the kids”. If you like Star Wars, books, dogs, or Diet Coke, it’s safe to say that you will probably be instant friends. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Jacque
(She/her)

Jacque grew up in Western Washington and enjoyed being surrounded by the evergreens and the ocean. She now lives in Eastern Washington and gets to appreciate the valleys and deserts of that region! She is passionate about dogs, sunshine, her two boys, and love stories. Her main focus as a wedding photographer is making sure each couple feels comfortable, confident and celebrated while she captures their big day. Your love story deserves to be celebrated deeply and fiercely! Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Kris L.
(He/Him)

Kris is a Houston transplant, so prepare to hear “y’all” frequently during your sessions. His empathetic approach places the focus squarely on you, prioritizing your journey to marriage above all else. You can count on him to provide comfort before your first look and bring boundless energy to the dance floor. When he’s not at weddings, you’ll likely spot Kris playing pickleball or discovering new restaurants and antique stores with his wife. Click here to view his tmInspired sample gallery.

Hannah
(She/Her)

Hannah grew up in Utah, with a camera almost always in her hands. For the last 4 years, she has been living in Hawaii, where she officially became a full time photographer. Now based in Portland, she’s found the perfect blend of forest trails, misty coastlines, and creative community. She’s passionate about helping people feel seen and celebrated just as they are. When she’s not photographing weddings or families, she’s likely out walking her Australian shepherd, teaching voice and piano lessons, or playing board games with her husband. At every session, Hannah brings calm energy, honest encouragement, and a knack for making people feel instantly at ease. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Kris O.
(She/Her)

Kris grew up on Oahu island of Hawaiʻi with a disposable camera in hand from her earliest memory, at the age of seven. Now that she is in Portland, she is soaking up everything that the PNW has to offer. Her passion for photography actually stems from working to overcome her own insecurities in being photographed. She works hard to make sure that everybody and every-body feels beautiful when they work with her. Her hobbies include experimenting through cooking in the kitchen (her go-to first impression dish is her take on Japanese curry!) and creating TikTok content of her fur family. At every wedding and portrait session, Kris is the professional hand holder, shoulder to cry on, and ultimate hype woman. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Dani
(She/her)

Dani fell in love with photography after her parents bought her a crappy 3 megapixel camera in the hopes it got her off of World of Warcraft (It didn’t work, but she hasn’t been farther than 5 feet from a camera ever since). She’s an unapologetic Hufflepuff and bird enthusiast. Dani will spend your day joking with you, discussing the ins and outs of fictional worlds, and probably telling you all about her feathered sidekick like any bird-nerd would. All the while, you’ll be getting your real, genuine reactions photographed and woven into a visual story you can cherish forever. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Leah
(She/Her)

Leah grew up in the mountains, forests, and valleys of the Western United States, and her work is heavily inspired by the landscapes of her childhood. Her favorite waterfall is Wahclella in the Columbia Gorge and her favorite dinosaur is the Pachycephalosaurus. Leah is a documentary-style photographer meaning that, like a proper introvert, she sits back and lets your day unfold (and steps in with guidance when needed!). She feels that the in-between moments – when you are lost in each other and forget the camera is there – make for the most authentic images. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Amanda V.
(She/Her)

Amanda lives in Arizona but serves the Southern California area often when she visits family and friends. Orange County is where she grew up and loves when work can bring her back to visit. She spent her childhood experiencing weddings through her mom’s eyes as a florist. Amanda loved seeing a wedding come to life from beginning to end. As she grew up, so did her own creativity. She always wanted to find an avenue that feeds her creative spirit and pursuing photography became an obvious choice for her. To this day, she still finds satisfaction in a wedding coming to life. Elegance and style is at the front of her mind. Mom of 3 kiddos, she is fueled by her sense of adventure and bottomless iced coffee. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Amanda H.
(She/Her)

Photography is Amanda’s creative dream come true. You may hear her yell “YAAASS!” more than once throughout your portrait session, and she’s a big fan of punny jokes. Around high school, Amanda found out for herself how important memories were. Not just the ones she was creating currently but the ones that she couldn’t get back. She realized that captured moments carry such a significance for her that she wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too. Mom of 2 kids, she is used to finding the calm in the midst of chaos. Amanda believes that the unexpected moments can really make wedding photo galleries really special. Her all time favorite movies are Midnight in Paris and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Draped in Bloom ✨ What you don’t see: the scrambl Draped in Bloom ✨

What you don’t see: the scramble of wedding vendors working in the rain. Pivoting together to the best of our abilities to try to create magic from a collaborative vision. Cheering each other on and supporting one another in our art.

I’m always looking for ways to push myself creatively, and then sometimes Mother Nature decides to step in. 🫠 All week we had beautiful weather until the day of this day when it decided to just pour down rain. Not a part of the plan, but as a group of experienced wedding vendors, we knew how to make it work.

A little rain never hurt anybody - right? 😉

Becoming a better photographer is not what I expec Becoming a better photographer is not what I expected.

I thought becoming a better photographer meant more gear, more experience, more weddings under my belt. And sure, those things matter. But the stuff that actually changed how I work? It was quieter than that.

It was noticing the way shadows move across a curtain in the morning. Learning to see light before I ever pick up a camera.

It was recognizing who I’m actually for. Saying no to the wrong clients felt risky at first. But it made room for the ones where everything just clicks, and that’s when the best work happens.

It was finding people who love this work as much as I do. Photographers who want to talk about the craft, push each other, and love to think bigger.

It was learning how to lead. Building an associate team in 2020 meant I had to articulate things I’d always just felt intuitively. Putting that into words, into training, into trust, has made me a better photographer and a better collaborator.

It was getting in a room with florists and planners and designers outside of wedding days, just to create. Styled shoots showed me what my vendors are truly capable of, and that changes everything about how I collaborate on the real thing.

It was getting the business right. When communication, pricing, and contracts are solid, I show up on a wedding day with a clear head. The back end of this job has more impact on the work than most people want to admit.

It was staying curious. About the craft, about what inspires me outside of this industry, and about the people I photograph. The more I understand my clients and their guests, the more I can anticipate real moments before they happen. Knowing how to read people ended up being just as important as knowing how to read light.

And then there’s time. Not just years logged, but learning to get out of my own head. To stop second guessing the shot I already took and start trusting that my eye brought you there for a reason. That quiet confidence took longer to build than any technical skill.

Growth doesn’t always show itself in big milestones. It’s the unexpected moments that has shaped me the most.
Ambiance isn’t something you add at the end. It’s Ambiance isn’t something you add at the end.

It’s the millions of little decisions like hanging chandeliers instead of string lights. Or filling a tent with candlelight so warm it makes everyone look like they’re glowing.

It’s the thing guests can’t name but feel the moment they walk in.

When a room is designed with that kind of intention, it shows up in the photos. Not in an obvious way, just in the way everything feels a little more… alive.

If you’re building a wedding around how people will experience it, we’d love to be the ones trusted to document that experience.

A quote that lives in my head rent free for every A quote that lives in my head rent free for every wedding day: “your wedding photos are the first family heirloom you create”

As wedding photographers, we are dedicated to telling your love story and the documentation of your day as it unfolds. Of course, we do this for the joy and celebration as we feel it right now.

But we also always remember that one day, this day will become a distant memory and your photos is what will help you share and remember.

When that day comes, what moments might you cherish the most?

Ligia and Coty on film ✨ Catholic wedding ceremon Ligia and Coty on film ✨

Catholic wedding ceremonies take me back to when I first started photography 16 years ago. I appreciate the rhythm of tradition from generations coming together in quiet moments of reflection and love.

Whether your wedding day is rooted in tradition or something entirely your own, your day should feel true to you.

And we’ll meet you there.
“We will be reliving our wedding through these pho “We will be reliving our wedding through these photos year after year!” - Jing & Terrence

Seriously one of the highest compliments to ever receive from a wedding client is a raving review of your work. We are so passionate about documenting the beautiful portraits and sought after moments, but also the candid and impactful moments, too. To hear that our clients treasure these images as much as we treasure the art documenting them, is our dream come true.
