Hey, I’m Rayleigh and I’m a Portland wedding photographer.  This is the part where I’m supposed to tell you about how much I love wedding photography.  But instead I’m going to tell you about how much I love relationships between people.  A person can look at a camera and offer some sort of smile that documents what they looked like on that day, and I have my photo taken in that way every four years at the DMV.  But what I like to see is the perfect smile that grows on the face of a man in love as he looks at his beloved and wonders how he could deserve such a beautiful soul to have and to hold for the rest of their days.  Of course, with me and my camera as the third wheel, your real smile may not come out so easily.  To bring those feelings out so that I can capture the real you, I will invite you to an experience that, for a moment, helps you forget I’m there.  And a moment is all I need to snap the camera and capture a lovely image that you will cherish for the rest of your life.  I promise to guide you through every step of our time together so that all you have to do is relax and be in love!

My husband, whom I completely adore, is my second photographer and we photograph weddings together.  Having my very own beloved next to me as we photograph you pronouncing your love to the world, creates an overwhelming atmosphere of romance that I can’t help but capture with my camera!  Please contact me to talk about the memories we can create for you!
