Wildwood Wedding Photography – Bold, Authentic, Oregon Love Stories

Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event – a day filled with special moments you never want to forget. At Wildwood Wedding Films & Photography, we capture those moments in vibrant, timeless imagery that tells your unique love story. As an award-winning team of Portland wedding photographers, we blend the polished flair of editorial portraiture with the unscripted beauty of documentary-style candid moments. The result? Stunning wedding photos that burst with bold color, rich contrast, and real emotion in every frame.

Capture Every Moment, Relive It Forever

We believe your wedding photos should bring you right back to the way your day felt. From the nervous excitement before the ceremony to the tearful hugs, sweet vows, and uproarious dance-floor laughs, we’ve got you covered. Our approach to Oregon wedding photography is all about storytelling – capturing every moment big and small, so you can relive them with your partner, your guests, and even your grandkids decades from now. We don’t just take pictures; we preserve memories and create an heirloom for your family history.

What Makes Our Photography Different?

Experienced, Talented Team with Passion

With over 6 years in business and more than 60 five-star reviews from grateful clients, our experienced, award-winning team is inspired by the essence of your love story. We are proud to be featured as one of Oregon’s top wedding photography teams, trusted by couples who want to focus on their day perfectly while we document their journey.

Bold, True-to-Life Colors and Timeless Imagery

Your photos will pop with rich hues and clarity – no washed-out filters here. Every image is professionally edited and retouched to look its absolute best while still feeling authentic to the day. We combine the luxury look of editorial photography (think magazine-worthy portraits where you look amazing) with the realness of documentary shots that capture candid smiles, happy tears, and spontaneous moments. It’s the perfect balance of posed and unposed: you get gorgeous fine-art portraits and an honest record of all the unscripted moments in between.

Comfortable Posing Guidance – Your Personal Hype Team

Worried you’re awkward in photos? We hear this all the time – and we’ve made it our mission to erase that worry. At Wildwood, we are your personal hype team. From the first time we meet, we bring positive energy and expertise to get you relaxed and having fun in front of the camera. It’s completely normal to feel nervous being photographed – but our superpower is making you forget the camera is even there. We’ll coach you with easy poses, natural prompts, and plenty of encouragement. By the time we’re shooting, you’ll feel like a confident rockstar couple, glowing with genuine smiles and affection.

Documentary Style That Notices Every Detail

We melt into the background to capture the real emotion, candid moments, and sweet interactions that make your wedding uniquely yours. When you look through your photos, you’ll see your true selves and all the warmth and joy of the day shining through.

Creating Space and Room for Your True Selves

We believe every couple deserves the right space and room to be themselves. Our approach ensures you feel comfortable and free to express your love naturally. This space allows the real moments to happen, creating memories that are genuine and heartfelt.

Working with Your Husband, Lover, and Loved Ones

We understand how important it is to capture the unique bonds you share with your husband, lover, friends, and family. Our photography celebrates these relationships, highlighting the warmth and connection that make your day special.

JD was a pleasure to work with and delivered his product fast!! My husband and I were really happy with his speedy replies, professionalism at our wedding, and the quality of his work. His prices are affordable and we got the most perfect wedding videos. I would highly suggest hiring JD to work your wedding because he won’t miss a thing! It is all so beautifully documented forever!…

We were married in Bend, OR winter 2023 and it was an unforgettable day. One of the best decisions we made was hiring JD to capture our wedding day so we could enjoy watching it over and over each year. Wedding days are whirlwinds, and I was so thankful for the attention to detail that Wildwood Wedding Films took to ensure nothing was missed….
