Bend, Oregon and Nashville, Tennessee Elopements
We specialize in small wedding and elopement photography in Bend, Oregon and Nashville Tennessee. While we're photographers who split time between Central Oregon and Nashville, we're ready to hit Mexico, Spain or Bali. Many plans in 2020/21 had to be changed and our hearts were broken for many of our clients. Some of our clients pushed forward, scaled back, and had micro-weddings anyway and we LOVED the intimacy that allowed for. While we're ready for that C19 word to be less of a topic in the coming months, we're excited for micro-weddings and elopements to continue. Regardless, we're ready to tell your story. Friends, the best is yet to come. Bring it 2022/23 and beyond.
"Recently, the Oregon Bride Team came across a wedding photographer. Thirty minutes went by and we still had our jaws on the floor. There's something to be said about original, creative men like Benjamin Edwards when you can look at his work and say, he loves his job… We want to see more weddings captured like this. Go book the guy!"
