K&A's Wedding

Kris and Aloe’s wedding at the stunning Four Directions Retreat in Rainier, Oregon, was a beautiful celebration of love set against a breathtaking backdrop of nature. Nestled among towering trees and surrounded by the serene atmosphere of the Pacific Northwest, this intimate venue offered the perfect setting for their special day. The couple chose to make their wedding even more memorable by inviting their guests to camp on-site, creating a relaxed, cozy vibe that allowed everyone to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. As a wedding photographer, I had the privilege of capturing every moment of this magical day,

One of the most unique aspects of Kris and Aloe's wedding was the fact that all the guests were able to camp on-site, adding a touch of adventure and connection to the festivities. The Four Directions Retreat is known for its spacious grounds, which were perfect for pitching tents and enjoying the full camping experience. The sense of community and closeness created by this setting made the event feel even more personal and special. Guests shared meals, explored the grounds, and celebrated together, all while surrounded by nature’s peaceful embrace. As a photographer, I loved capturing the candid moments of laughter and connection that unfolded throughout the weekend. ​

Another standout feature of Kris and Aloe's wedding was their decision to welcome pets into the celebration. Many of their guests brought their dogs along, making the day even more fun and relaxed. As a dog lover and wedding photographer, it was heartwarming to see the couples and families with their furry friends by their sides, adding to the joyous atmosphere. The dogs were a perfect addition to the day, playing and roaming the grounds with as much excitement and enthusiasm as the guests. As a wedding photographer, being able to capture moments of guests interacting with their dogs made the photos feel even more personal and meaningful, ensuring that every special detail was remembered.
