Meet Emily
RECENT COUPLES & their love stories
I could go on and on about her, but at this point I hope that I have made myself clear. Pictures were one of the most important parts of my wedding day for my now husband and I. We had dreamed of that day for years, and were worried there was no way to capture the love, joy, relief and overall happiness everyone would feel. We felt like that until we met Emily. She takes moments in time and makes them last forever. I cannot thank her enough.”

“Just hire Emily. It is the easiest decision anyone could make. Wake up, drink some water, choose Emily.
Her eye for details and hard work generated some of the best wedding photos I’ve ever seen. Definitely worth working with her. She helped us every step of the way and the wedding turned out to be a total success at every level.”
"Emily was pleasant, professional, and very patient. I also found her work to be exceptional.
-Cerah & Ryder
My passion behind photographing couples stems from what I believe my purpose to be: celebrating and sharing the beauty of relationships. I’m here to capture you as you are in this season, to commemorate what you have been through and accomplished together, and give you a celebratory send off into the next phase of your relationship!
passion & purpose
I have been photographing couples since 2017, and while I now shoot with confidence and ease, I never stop honing my craft. Whether it's attending workshops, mentorships, or organizing styled shoots—I'm always trying new creative methods and techniques to ensure I'm consistently producing unique and excellent photographs! I've worked with so many couples and have a plethora of poses and prompts in my back pocket to ensure you never feel awkward!

The goal of our shoot is that you walk away having had an incredible adventure experience with photos that actually capture your love. So with that said, this is your day! Every single part of the shoot will be catered to you.
Getting to know you in our zoom meeting is my favorite part and so important! This will ensure that I help create the best environment that helps you feel like your authentic self, and where I'll catch the vision of your dream photoshoot so I can make it happen. Whether were celebrating by skiing on a mountain together or having a picnic on the coast—whatever you're envisioning for your special day, I got you!

I had the pleasure of working with the dream team duo of Emily and her husband Stephen! My wedding was planned very last minute about 1.5 weeks before the big day and I was so stressed about finding the perfect photographer and I really wanted a videographer as well. On a whim I messaged Emily on instagram and she was so quick to get back to me. I was so surprised and felt so seen right off the bat! After she said she was free for my wedding weekend we quickly set up a video chat and I explained my vision and she provided so much input and ideas that helped put it all together! The booking and planning process was so easy it helped me feel at ease for the big day approaching. They were both the sweetest couple and my family and I loved having them join in our intimate micro wedding at the beach. We had some crazy winds that day but they captured our wedding perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect dreamy day. It was exactly as I had envisioned and I can’t thank them both enough! We are already talking about and planning our anniversary photo shoots in the future with Emily! We can’t recommend her and her husband enough! My wedding video was also so special and brought everyone to tears! Thank you both so much!"

"Emily was amazing! We are from Boise, Idaho and we decided to do a small destination wedding on the Oregon Coast. Although we had been to the Oregon Coast multiple times we still found ourselves in the dark on some things. That is where Emily came in! I was very nervous about planning a destination wedding, but she made the process a lot less painful! We found her on instagram and loved the way she captured everyone’s special moments in her own style. She messaged me right away after we reached out and from then on she was nothing but supportive, patient and very informative. She made us feel very comfortable taking instruction from her and made us feel natural in front of the camera. Our favorite moments with Emily were our engagement photos in Portland and our couples’ wedding photos because those were one on one times with her. We shared a lot of laughs and it was always a fun time! Emily went above and beyond her role as a photographer. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family. We will for sure be contacting her for other major life events that need to be photographed! Thank you Emily for everything and helping our dream wedding come true! "

We loved every moment of our photo session! Being able to sightsee in a completely different landscape than what we're used to in the NJ/NYC area, the whole session felt like a movie just going up and down the Oregon Coast. What stood out to us was just how seamless Emily made the whole experience. We didn't feel rushed to go from location to location. We took breaks when needed but we definitely are glad we hired her for 5 hours, it was just perfect for what we needed. Emily made me and my wife feel like we were close friends, as if we knew her for years. There was no issue communicating and we had a TON of fun just exploring and sharing our life stories together. We didn't feel uncomfortable in any way, we just had a ton of fun and Emily is super friendly and an open book, WE LOVE HER A TON!! If you are in Oregon, Emily would be my first and only recommendation for photos. Her work ethic, friendliness, professionalism, and just being a pro in her craft just comes together beautifully. Emily is amazing at what she does and you will not regret booking with her.

My husband and I did an adventure session on the Oregon coast with Emily for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We were both a little nervous since we had never had professional pictures done before, but Emily was literally the best and we felt so comfortable and had so much fun during our session! Emily was so knowledgeable about all of the beautiful locations along the coast and the timing in terms of lighting and crowds. She knows of so many hidden gems that we had no idea even existed. We loved how Emily captured many candid moments of us that felt so intimate and raw, yet completely beautiful. It really just felt like the two of us exploring the coast and Emily captured it so beautifully. We have received so many compliments from family and friends on the photos. Also, from the moment we booked Emily to the time we received our pictures, her communication has been off the charts exceptional. You can really tell she cares about her clients and wants them to he happy! I would recommend Emily a million times over and we hope to have pictures done by her again next time we visit the coast. Book Emily, you will not regret it!

"What a dream experience with Emily!! Getting our engagement photos done was a very important milestone in my fiancé and I’s journey together, I wanted them to be perfect. When I found Emily’s Instagram I just knew she had talent and if anyone could make my photos perfect, It’d be her. She took my vision and made it happen. She was so creative and made both of us feel so comfortable, we were both giggling the whole time. My fiancé isn’t a big picture fan, he tries to get out of it as much as he can, but with Emily he was smiling the whole time and after the shoot was over he admitted he had a blast. She made the whole day so special and I’m forever thankful I found her! Our photos turned out so beautiful. I look forward to booking with her again, highly recommend."
"What a dream experience with Emily!!"

She was fully invested in us and our vision long before our wedding day! So when our big day finally arrived, she captured everything beautifully, made us and all of our guests feel comfortable in front of the camera, and she even suggested other stunning locations for couple’s portraits near our ceremony spot! We received some of our photos just two days after our ceremony and haven’t stopped gushing over them since! They’re absolutely beautiful, and she captured "us" so eloquently! If you’re thinking about hiring Emily for your wedding, elopement, or bridal portraits (yes, I did those with Emily too!) you can stop searching and take this task off your never-ending to-do list because Emily will exceed all your expectations!"
"Emily made my dream wedding come true! She initially caught my attention with her gorgeous images and style on Instagram, but one of my favorite things about Emily is her responsiveness.
