beautiful hood river gorge weddings

The Columbia River is the largest river in the Pacific Northwest region of North America; a killer destination location for Hood River Gorge weddings. Just 30 minutes west of downtown Portland, the Columbia River Gorge is one of the most accessible and beautiful scenic spaces in Oregon. The Historic Columbia River Highway is a 20-mile stretch with grand waterfalls and views as you drive through the luscious green forest. There are endless places to stop and enjoy the view and numerous hiking trails to explore adventurous engagement photos. 

There are many outdoor wedding venues. Mt Hood Organic Farms, Tin Roof Barn, Gorge Crest Vineyards, and the Columbia Gorge Hotel are some of our favorite.

We will show you everything we’ve learned from photographing Hood River Gorge Weddings
and take you on an adventure of a lifetime.

We love the experience of great adventures and celebrating engagements with powerful photographs. There’s nothing like taking photos with expansive views,  near the natural wonder of a massive waterfall, or like a sky filled with rich color.  If you love nature we will join you on a “hiking date” and capture moments that make you pop out in the expansive scene.  We believe in the thrill and inspiration of fun outings with great photos. What better way to begin the journey of your wedding?  So fun! So beautiful and meaningful!

Since the Hood River Gorge area has vast landscapes away from big ambient lights we can adventure deep into nature for night photography. With the opportunity to get away from light pollution we can pull our creative off-camera flash and take long exposures to bring in the magic of the night sky while lighting you up. When the sky is right we prioritize a plan to create space for these powerful photos to happen and do lots of test shots before guiding you into “the shot.” That way we bring you out for an exciting “breather” while not take you away from your party for too long. It’s awesome! Hood River Gorge Weddings offer spectacular night skies.
