Belknap Lodge Wedding along McKenzie River

Belknap Lodge Wedding - McKenzie River

1/1/2016

In August, I had the pleasure of photographing and intimate wedding along the McKenzie River at Belknap Lodge. I absolutely loved this couple and their wedding. The setting is one of my favorite wedding locations in Oregon.

Smaller weddings are so special to photograph because they really allow you to feel the love between the couple and focus on the special details. I was only there for a couple of hours, but we were able to capture a beautiful first look in The Secret Garden and take gorgeous family photos before the ceremony. The wedding ceremony took place right next to the gorgeous McKenzie River and was just perfect!

I really enjoyed meeting and spending time with this bride and groom and their family and friends. I felt so happy and content when the day was over and I drove back home to Eugene.

Below are just a few samples of this Oregon wedding along the McKenzie River.

What a fun unique wedding with the Bohemian style feel to it. I loved it even though they eloped they still had a photographer to capture this beautiful moment for the family. You did a great job!

I actually love how non traditional this wedding is. You can really tell a lot about the couple through the details at the Eugene wedding.
