Hot take: your wedding timeline should not feel like a performance schedule.

It should feel like space to actually experience your day.

I just dropped a new blog for Portland couples on building a wedding timeline that leaves room for real moments, unpredictable weather, and everything in between.

I’m genuinely curious… are there couples out there who would actually want a truly documentary wedding photographer?

Meaning the photographer is actually there to document the event/experience and not to direct a photo shoot.

The kind where your wedding day is allowed to unfold naturally without being interrupted, or contrived or feeling like you’re actors on the set of a giant production.

Where the goal isn’t to create moments for the camera, but to preserve the moments that were already there.

I keep thinking about how weddings used to feel before social media got involved. Back when the photos were important, but they weren’t the entire point of the day. People were more focused on being there than performing.

I’ve been photographing weddings for 16 years and have an itch to do something different, challenge myself and connect with my clients in a new way. I’m considering offering a very limited number of weddings photographed completely as documentary stories.

No need for posing. Just BE at your wedding. Just BE with your person. Seriously, IGNORE the camera completely.

And to fully lean into that timeless feeling, every image in the gallery would be delivered entirely in black & white.

I honestly don’t know if there are couples that would connect with this idea, but I’d love to hear your thoughts if you do.

🌸 which one is your favorite? 1,2, or 3?

Which is your favorite?

Seems a bit nuts to boil down 16 years as an Oregon wedding photographer into just 20 favorites. There are so many more that I am incredibly proud to have taken. But honestly, the thing that I am the proudest of is the photos my clients treasure and come back to again and again to savor the memories and feel those feelings and be with those people again. That is what I’m really all about.
