Oregon forests and Oregon Coast elopement in Brookings, OR on the Southern Oregon Coast.

So many parts of this elopement day was complete magic. Starting with that crazy light in the photo above! These two put so much thought and effort into each part of their day. They are fellow photographers which made their day like hanging out with your photographer friends and having a great day taking photos. Except even better because they got to get married while they were at it!

They took the time to make their own accessories, bring their favorite film themed cooler for their picnic, exchange vows entirely privately with only the waves listening, and so much more. They wanted a day they could relive over and over and that’s exactly what they got.

I got to work this alongside Lilli Productions for video! Sabrina is my go-to videographer to recommend to all my couples. That’s why we have a photo and video package together! Having a cohesive team documenting your day can make all the difference. You can learn more about our work together here!

Here’s the video she made from their elopement day:

Oregon Coast Picnic and Ceremony

This glorious beam of light was no accident. This is a unique moment at this beach. The sunset and tide have to correspond and the tide has to be especially low to get close enough for the photos we got. They wanted a completely private ceremony so all of the ceremony photos are entirely candid! No posing or direction, just the two of them in their moment.

Blue Hour and Night Photos

Your day doesn’t have to end once the sun goes down! I always recommend staying at least a bit after sunset for the fun colors of blue hour. We tried for star photos but the ocean fog had another idea. We decided to get creative instead and have some fun with lanterns!

Elopement Photos on Film

A recent addition to all my elopements is film! This couple are film enthusiasts themselves so I put a special effort into making sure I captured lots on film. Film photos get to capture the day in such a unique way. Here’s a handful of the film photos from this beautiful day:
