If you’re dreaming of a wedding surrounded by natural beauty and a venue that gives you space to slow down and celebrate, Bridal Veil Lakes is a truly special place to begin your next chapter.
One of the biggest decisions you’ll make during the wedding planning process is choosing your venue. Your wedding venue sets the feeling for your entire day – from the style and timeline to the guest experience and photos. It’s more than just a pretty location. It’s the foundation for all the memories you’ll create.
Trying to decide between wedding photography or videography? As an Oregon-based destination wedding photographer and videographer, I believe you shouldn’t have to choose. In this post, I share why hybrid coverage tells the full story – capturing both the moments you see and the ones you feel.
Cancún, Mexico, is the perfect destination for a wedding! The stunning beaches, breathtaking sunsets, and warm weather make it an ideal location for couples looking to say their “I do’s” in paradise. I had the pleasure of shooting a timeless summer wedding at the Finest Playa Mujeres, and it was an experience I’ll never forget! […]
Photography was one of my first loves.
HI, I’M KIARHA LOU | AN OREGON-BASED WEST COAST PHOTOGRAPHER.
I’ve always been drawn to the moments people don’t plan for. The way someone looks at you when you’re not paying attention, the laughter that doesn’t last long, and the parts of life that feel most honest.
I believe a lot of that comes from how I grew up - surrounded by bins of film, family photos, and big family dinners. Often sitting right on top of the table as a kid, taking it all in. It wasn’t about perfection, it was good food, people talking over each other, and how much love was at that table.
The photos from that time let me step back into those seasons and feel it all over again. And I think that’s part of why I care so deeply about documenting life as it really is.
My journey as a photographer has taken me to breathtaking landscapes, intimate celebrations, and heartwarming encounters, each leaving an indelible mark on my artistic vision. Through my work. Mark on my artistic vision. Through my work.
Yes, I love a clean home, but I also love one that feels lived in, full of life, and a little imperfect in the most meaningful way - true to the season you’re actually in.
So when I step into a season with you, I’m not there to create something new - I’m there to pay attention to what’s already happening and preserve it in a way that feels honest.
Because at the end of it, this isn’t just about beautiful photos or an emotional film. It’s about the experience you’re living and having something you can come back to - something that holds this season of your life in a way that still feels real years from now.
