Looking for safe, inclusive wedding vendors in Washington and Oregon can be a bit of a mine-field; wondering if you’re safe with them, let alone if they get your vision and can celebrate your love in a way that truly holds your moments with care. As an inclusive photographer, I believe everyone deserves to feel comfortable, celebrated, and seen exactly as they are. I don't expect my clients to fit into a mold or perform for the camera. Instead, I focus on creating an environment where genuine connection can take center stage. 

No pretending, no forced performance, purely a place to breathe freely in the love you both want to cherish, with photography that feels like belonging. 

You’re not just welcome here, but deeply celebrated.

A SAFE AND LOVING SPACE FOR ALL

INCLUSIVE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY IN OREGON & WASHINGTON

​Most people step in front of a camera worried about the same things. What do I do with my hands? Which angle is my best? How do I look natural? The truth is, none of that is your job. My role is to create an experience where you can simply show up as yourself while I take care of the rest. I'll guide you when you need direction, give you space when a moment deserves to unfold naturally, and create imagery that feels authentic to who you are.

One of my favorite things is anticipating moments and capturing details that people wouldn’t even think to document. Finding meaning in the small moments lets you romanticize this messy ride called life, and there’s nothing more meaningful to me than helping you see the beauty in that.

You deserve to be fully present in your experience.

Not worrying about poses, angles, or whether you're doing it right. That's my responsibility. Your only job is to show up and be truly yourself.

learn more about us

We’re inspired by all things human and creative, which really sparks a deep joy for nuances. The fact that no two humans are the same keeps our work endlessly inspiring and fuels our creativity in how we can connect with each person in totally different ways. We’re always creating new thoughtful ways to share people’s stories with the world and that’s truly the beauty of it all.

We don’t turn up with a camera in hand and create copy-and-paste wedding photos for every person; we dream up new creative concepts, scout the locations that mean the most to you, welcome the chaos and quirks, and capture all the instances that might otherwise be lost. Creativity is woven into everything we do, both behind the camera and beyond it.

​More than anything, we want our clients to feel like they're spending time with friends rather than vendors. By the end of your experience with us, we hope you leave with beautiful imagery, great memories, and two new people cheering you on long after the gallery is delivered.

​Art isn’t something beautiful that has no meaning; real art turns something intangible and brimming with emotion into something people linger on, and that’s no different when it comes to documenting your story. We’re not here to capture the aesthetics, we’re here to capture the beauty in the real moments that make up who you are. And we’re committed to creating a safe space and a thoughtful approach that allows us to understand your life experience, and share it with the future version of yourself who will thank you for it.

what we're all about:

Real life, real bodies, and real experiences.

"Maelynn is not only just the sweetest and most calming presence on big days she also just takes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. We also (in the best way possible) did not even notice her on the dance floor or at the reception yet still had the most amazing candid photos of us and our family and friends.”
