Lifestyle

I work with couples that are unapologetically themselves. Who celebrate their day exactly how they want.Who have fun in any situation.Go with the flow. And are good humans.

My goal is to craft beautiful images that tell your story and showcase how amazing you are.  After all, this day only happens once in a lifetime.
I take pride in intuitively capturing those fleeting moments. In addition to the trust of my clients, my attention to detail and laid-back personality allows me to capture the unique personalities of my clients in every shoot.
Whether you’re looking for all day elopement photography coverage, couples photography or a personal portrait, I’d love to connect.
I’m based in Bend and am an experienced traveler who loves to work anywhere in Oregon or around the world.

Photographing in new places is one of my biggest inspirations.

Don’t get me wrong, Central Oregon is pretty amazing too. I never get tired of shooting in and around Bend. Bend, Oregon has some iconic landscapes that are perfect for any photo session. 

Maybe you’re a little like me? Inspired by nature, are excited by little adventures and are unafraid to say no to traditions that don’t feel like you.

Your wedding should be as unique as your are. I’m here to use my years of experience as a wedding photographer to help guide you, give direction to make you feel at ease in front of the camera and at times be a photo ninja, silently documenting those sweet moments you won’t want to forget

Smith Rock, Bend, Oregon Intimate Wedding.

Picking Gwen as our photographer was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. We ultimately picked Gwen because she was the photographer we felt the most comfortable talking with and she has a high level of experience and professionalism. She was very enthusiastic during our engagement shoot, on the wedding day and for our day after season.
