Don't take my word for it: hear it from my couples!

"We eloped on the Oregon Coast near Manzanita in July 2025 and we hired Jerrilynn to be our photographer. I was inspired by the photos I saw on her website and instagram page because they fit the vision I was wanting for our elopement photos. She was so amazing to work with and made the process feel way less stressful. We came from out of state so she sent us options of different locations and hikes where we could take photos. She sent us a few itineraries to choose from and was super willing to shift things around if we preferred one location over another. We ended up doing a surprise ceremony for my family and Jerrilynn did such an amazing job coordinating with our officiant to help keep the surprise right up to the moment and also catching the expression on their faces when they found out. Those are some of my favorite pictures! Another important thing is neither my husband or myself had ever taken professional photos together and aren’t very natural in front of the camera. She made the entire experience feel natural and comfortable, it didn’t feel like we were in front of the camera. I really appreciated that!"

This was the text I received from one of my couples after their gallery was delivered:

"You caught the exact vision we were looking for! Not only that, you made the actual experience so comfortable and fun"

"I cannot thank you enough for such a great experience."

When you work with me,

Intentional Moments

are Authentically Captured

My name is Jerrilynn

Hi Friend!

As an Oregon Based Elopement + Wedding photographer, I capture the moments that truly reflect your love story:

Authentic. Wild. Free

When you work with me, you’re not just getting a professional photographer – you’re getting a partner, a storyteller, and, honestly, a new friend. I bring my fun-loving, caring, and adventurous spirit to every shoot, creating an atmosphere where you can feel free to laugh, cry, dance, or just be in the moment.​

As they say...Client's know Best

Jerrilynn took mine and my wife’s elopement pictures a few months ago. It was such a beautiful experience. She captured our love perfectly. It can be very hard to find someone who is comfortable working with same sex couples or someone who makes you feel comfortable. You never know how someone will react or treat you but she was the sweetest and kindest human we have worked with. She made us laugh and cry! She is also very detailed in her work and even met with us over zoom to discuss our vision. We got to create a Pinterest clip board together and share ideas. She executed everything perfectly. She even bought us a bottle of champagne to take our pictures with. It know is on our wedding shelf. If you need a genuine, fun, caring, and kind person to do your pictures she’s your girl!

WHAT I DO DIFFERENTLY

Photography that feels like you.

Not a Pinterest board.

Not a trend.

You

DSC_2802.jpg

Here’s my approach:

Authentic > Perfect

No stiff poses. No pressure. Just space for you to show up as your real selves.

Cinematic Storytelling

Your photos should feel like you’re the main characters of an indie film — intentional, emotional, and soaked in scenery.

• Adventure-Centered, People-First

Whether we’re hiking to a waterfall, exploring the Oregon coast, or celebrating in your living room, I prioritize your comfort, connection, and experience above everything else.

• Planning Made Easy

Google Earth location scouting, timelines, vendor sourcing, lodging suggestions, creative ideas, gear guidance — I bring the brain-calming tools so you can focus on the fun stuff.

 

• Neurodivergent-Friendly Experience

As a neurodivergent creative myself, I approach every couple with patience, flexibility, humor, and structure that actually supports you.

 

• Creative Edits 

GIFs, double exposures, drone footage, editorial-style storytelling… your gallery will feel magical and fully alive.
