Kyle is an incredible pro! When our Mt. Hood wedding was hit by a surprise 15" snowstorm, he didn't just roll with it—he thrived. He capturing stunning shots in the snow (including an epic one lit by a sno-cat!) and remained a calm, joyful presence by our side all night. His eye is exceptional, capturing the beauty of Timberline Lodge with a documentarian's eye as well as the intimate warmth of our happiest moments. From our first meeting (over cocktails at Key’s Lounge!), Kyle was a joy to work with. He's responsive, attentive, and genuinely wanted to know us and our hopes for the day. He helped us build a clear day-of schedule, which was so effective we didn't even need a separate wedding coordinator—he kept everything running perfectly. Our wedding pictures are our favorite memento, and we couldn't be happier we found Kyle. His photos are just stunning!
Kyle was amazing to work with for our Portland wedding! We loved his documentary style for candids and his posed family portraits, and that he creates beautiful, well lit shots no matter the setting, indoor or outdoor, nature or urban. He was professional and responsive through the entire process, and we were impressed with how quickly we received the full album.
We can't recommend Kyle enough for any of your photography needs! We had Kyle take our engagement photos and from the moment we contacted him, he was super responsive, communicative, made suggestions for where photos can be shot, and we couldn't be happier with how they turned out. The whole experience was smooth and Kyle made us feel so comfortable and gave great direction for all the locations, poses, etc. We had the most amazing time shooting these photos and they turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Thank you, Kyle, for your amazing work!! 10/10 recommend.
I can't say enough good things about Kyle! Our wedding was truly captured and will be remembered forever with the amazing pictures he took.

Look no further, Kyle is the photographer you’ve been looking for. I cannot recommend him highly enough! He is a true professional! Kyle was absolutely integral to the flow of our wedding day. In addition to his beautiful photos, Kyle helped us assemble our wedding day schedule and fully maximized our time with him. He has a great eye for detail and is extremely easy to get along with.
