After Wedding Photoshoot in the Columbia River Gorge | Megan + Sean

Megan and Sean’s after wedding photoshoot Columbia River Gorge experience was a forest-filled celebration of their love. Their intimate campground wedding with only close family and friends didn’t include professional photos—until now. This session, gifted by Megan’s father and stepmom, turned into a heartfelt adventure through one of Oregon’s most scenic places.

Exploring Nature

The shoot began with a hike through a forest trail, a perfect setting for an after wedding photoshoot in the Columbia River Gorge. Megan and Sean brought a unique connection to the land. As the owners of Rowen Forest, they craft organic skincare, teas, and seasonings using ingredients from the forest. Sean pointed out wildflowers, herbs, and even poison oak and ivy along the way, turning our walk into a guided nature tour.

We even had a few surprise guests—a couple of deer and a snake greeted the newlyweds along the trail.

Wildflowers, Mt. Hood, and a Cliffside Sunset

Megan wore a cotton white dress that swayed gently in the breeze, while Sean dressed in tan slacks and a soft button-down. Their laid-back outfits reflected the relaxed, natural feel of this post-wedding session.

Halfway up the trail, we came upon a stunning blue wildflower field, the perfect place to pause for portraits. At the top, we were treated to panoramic views—Columbia River on one side, Mt. Hood on the other. Truly, this elopement style wedding shoot had it all.

Ending the Session at the River’s Edge

We made our way down to the cliffside, where the soft light and open sky made for dreamy final portraits. Our conversation wandered from plants and business to marriage and future dreams. It was the kind of session that reminded me why I love what I do—no rush, no pressure, just people and places that matter deeply.
