more than just your photographer
YOU ARE IMPORTANT, AND YOUR MOMENTS DESERVE TO BE DOCUMENTED.
I'm Courtney - I'm an Oregon based wedding, couples, and family photographer. I was born and raised in California, went to UO for college (Go Ducks!), spent 3 years exploring Colorado with my husband, and moved back to Oregon in November of 2020 to be close to our amazing community of friends and family.
To keep it simple, I believe that every person, just like every photograph, is unique and expresses something different from any other. Whether you're quirky + eccentric or classic + elegant, I want to capture your essence, love and personality using the art of photography. This whole gig I have going is so much more than just pretty pictures. It's all about providing you the client experience you deserve while documenting whatever season of life you are in through a fun photoshoot together!
After all, a photo is a snapshot in time that you'll never get back. Let's make it count and go somewhere pretty!
p.s. - I'm always down to travel. Always, always. Where are we going?
Bonus points if you are getting married or eloping in: Yosemite National Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Zion national park, Utah Salt Flats, Sunset Cliffs in San Diego, or anywhere international - I'll cut ya a sweet deal (I'm not kidding) to check these places off my photography bucket list!
Great question, I'm so glad you asked!
Step 1: Click on the Contact button at the top of your screen and fill out the form letting me know you're interested in a photoshoot! This form will send me an email, and I'll respond within 48 hours with more information!
Step 2: If we both decide we will be a good fit for what you are wanting, you'll electronically sign a contract and pay a 20% deposit to hold your date. I'm officially all yours for our scheduled date/time!
Step 3: We'll be in contact up until our shoot together. I'll ask questions to learn more about your story and I'm always happy to help with wardrobe questions, or give location suggestions if needed!
Step 4: Photoshoot day! We will meet at our planned location and have a ball together! I promise. I'll walk you through the whole thing, no need to be nervous.
Step 5: You'll get a sneak peek within 2 days of our shoot together (usually faster). I know it's exciting to see what we captured during the shoot, so I do my best to get you a preview of your photos as quickly as I can!
Step 6: Your images are delivered in a digital gallery via email. You'll get an access link to view your gallery, as well as download/print as many as you'd like. No limits here, and no watermarks on the photos either!
Step 7: You refer anybody and everybody you know to me so that I can keep this little business of mine up and running! Thanks in advance :)
Sounds good? Let's do this thing! --->

"We hired Courtney for our wedding and I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. I’ve never had professional photos taken as an adult and Courtney was able to pose us in a way that made our photos turn out looking natural and candid. The way she edits her photos looks very natural and professional which I appreciate since I didn’t want my photos to look overly edited. Courtney he was also able to give me good insight about the schedule for the day and how to run things"

"Courtney came recommended to us through a friend who had used her for her engagement & change the date photos. We cannot emphasize enough just how AMAZING our photos turned out! I am not very comfortable in front of the camera, and she made us feel at ease the entire time. She was so patient with our crazy 55lb puppy, too! She found the most beautiful spots, and we could tell she truly cared about getting the best shots for us. The entire experience was so much fun! - Kat"

"Oh where do I start! I found Courtney on Facebook! She was kind, professional, and she was actually the first vendor I set a contract with (before my venue hehe). She made it so simple and easy! I was so pleased with the prices as they fit into our budget perfectly. Of course her work looked lovely but I certainly didn’t know what to expect with an engagement shoot! Courtney made it simple, fun, and so natural! I know Courtney truly cares about her clients and her work! - Caelyn"

She asked me my vision and was able to deliver just that. My husband and I felt so comfortable around her on our wedding day which really made the experience very personal. I would recommend her to anyone!! - Trina C."

"Courtney did an AMAZING job capturing our windy wedding in Estes Park, CO! She was incredibly professional, eager to help and capture big moments, and has been so communicative and helpful all throughout the process of making it to the wedding. Her edits are beautiful and she was so fun to work with, even in the bitter cold and wind of the day! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!!"
