HI, I’M MEGAN

Hi, hello! So glad you found me. I believe it’s important to get to know the person who you will be spending a lot of time with on your wedding or elopement day, so here’s a little more about me!

Photography fuels my creative spirit. I completed a digital photography certificate program through Parsons School of Design at The New School and am continually learning as much as I possibly can about photography so I can better serve my clients. I’ve also been rediscovering the feeling of 35mm film and vintage Polaroids and incorporating them into my work.

When I’m not photographing elopements and weddings, I’m working as a marketer. I’ve been a part of or led teams at Fortune 500 companies, global brands and startups for more than a dozen years. I’m a hard-working, detail-obsessed perfectionist but I also thrive on having as much fun as possible. I’m simultaneously a very serious and not serious person!

FOR TRUE ROMANTICS AND LIGHTHEARTED LOVERS

I’m married to the best person I know, Matt, and we have a sweet mini-golden doodle, Biscuit. We’re originally from Atlanta and lived in Denver before landing in Oregon. We also spend as much time as we can in Hawaii (I have family in Oahu and travel there for weddings)! 

I love getting outside and exploring and enjoying nature. I can chat for days about where we’re traveling next, the best restaurants in any city, interior design and all things home, style and shopping, cooking, and the best books to read in basically any genre. You can find me wandering around at Powell’s on a rainy Sunday.

I’m a big fan of live music so we go to a lot of shows (indie rock for me and Matt’s a total metalhead, haha). I’m trying to learn more about wine other than just being like, “Ok, this one is ALSO delicious”! Italy and France are at the top of my travel list (primarily for the food, let’s be honest!). I’ve also recently taken up oil painting to be creative through a new medium. Let’s get to know each other!
