    Nate Smith is all we could have asked for in our wedding photographer. First and foremost, the photographs are stunning and captured so many wonderful perspectives and small details from our wedding day. We both and our wedding party all felt like we’ve never looked better or happier in photographs.

    He was very professional and easy to work with throughout the process and was able to incorporate all of our preferences into his wedding-day photography plan.

    Nate is also very fun to work with! On the day of, with so many people and logistics, Nate was a calming, entertaining presence and helped make the day as a whole go smoothly. I couldn’t recommended a photographer more highly.

    Brilliant photographer!

    Nate did an awesome job for our engagement session and wedding photography. He was a pleasure to work with and was very attentive to our needs. He was able to be flexible and create a custom package just for us! The photos for both sessions turned out amazing – Nate really is a brilliant photographer. I would recommend him in a heartbeat for anyone who is looking for great photos and a wonderful person to work with. He put us at ease during our photo sessions, and we are so happy with how they turned out – we will treasure them forever.

    Nate Smith Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Emily! Climbing through the forest and wandering through greenhouses with the two of you was so beautiful and I'm so happy to have been your photographer!

    Nate made our day 10x better, he captured all of our favorite moments.

    Having Nate as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for or wedding. He truly went above and beyond to capture every moment. He is very professional but he also makes you feel at ease with a laid-back personality. We are beyond pleased with our photos and couldn’t recommend him enough, seriously. Nate captured every emotion and so many details, it makes it fun to look at our photos over and over. I went through countless reviews and websites when looking for a photographer, because we were hiring all of wedding vendors over the phone, and when we talked to Nate for the first time we knew he would be perfect for our wedding day. He truly did make the process so easy!! If we ever need a photographer again, Nate will be our go to.

    Never stopped working

    Nate photographed our wedding in January 2019 and he was amazing! He never stopped moving and taking photos. He does a really good job of building rapport and making you feel comfortable. He also takes some really good photos and had all 600+ photos back to us exactly a month after our wedding.

    We worked with Nate for our engagement shoot back in April! He did a fantastic job from beginning to end. He is very responsive, friendly, and professional - we enjoyed all of our interactions with him. He took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple so that he could really capture our unique relationship and personalities.

    In our initial conversation, he found out that we were an adventurous couple who loves hiking. When we were discussing locations for the shoot, he proposed checking out Abiqua Falls, which would require a short, but strenuous hike to get to. We were up for it and Nate was there for us every step of the way - getting a 4WD car to take us closer, knowing the route to the falls, and even providing water and snacks post-shoot!

    The photos are absolutely stunning! The shoot was even featured on a local Portland wedding blog, which was very exciting and flattering. Nate has a talent for both portrait and landscape photography and was able to capture us and the waterfall together. He also caught several candid and quiet moments that ended up being some of our favorites from the day.

    I would absolutely recommend Nate for any of your photography needs! He is so passionate about his work; he truly loves helping people look and feel their best, especially on their special day.

    Thanks, Nate, for an adventure we’ll never forget and for the pictures to prove it!

    We hired Nate Smith as our wedding photographer and it was the best decision we made for our wedding! Can't even begin to describe how wonderful he was to work with. From the moment we reached out to him, his communication was great. He responded to all of our questions within 24 hours or sooner. He even helped us plan out our wedding day schedule. Nate captured every special moment and he did a wonderful job putting our wedding album together. My husband and I are definitely camera shy but Nate helped us feel comfortable being in front of a camera. We had so much fun working with him on our wedding day! I highly recommend Nate Smith as your wedding photographer if you're looking for someone who is confident, love their job, you can trust, and will guarantee to do an exceptional job!

    Nate was absolutely amazing, he went above and beyond in helping us plan out our day and find the perfect location. We were flying in from out of state and told him what kind of wedding we were looking for. He scouted out some sites and sent us photos and links for us to look at and kept in contact with us the entire time. When the actual day came he hiked up trails in the rain, down hills to the bottom of the water fall, stoped traffic and stood in the middle of the street and climbed over guard rails in the snow just to get the perfect photographs. I can’t stress enough how much we enjoyed working with Nate, he was absolutely fantastic, very professional and easy to work with!

    Nate was very prompt in getting back to us about our out of state winter elopement. I had sent him my ideas of what I wanted in the shoot. Soo glad he has an adventurous spirit! He was on point and ready! Whether to hike 2 miles or battle a snowy mountain! He's has such a charming personality and spirit for the unknown! We did our elopement in Februry at Larourell Falls and then drove to Mt. Hood for some snowy snaps. He would have keep going if we hadn't ran out of daylight. Could not have asked for a better photographer! The pic's are unbelievably stunning! Can't wait for him to shoot our next great adventure!

    Nate was the perfect photographer. From beginning to end he is the perfect combination of flexible and professional. As a nervous bride planning our wedding, the photos were the most important aspect to me and I wanted someone who would add their professional expert opinion and still listen to what we wanted- if you're gonna have someone follow you around all day, Nate's the best!

    It's a good feeling to look through your wedding photos and think "Man we hired the right photographer." Nate Smith did an incredible job shooting our wedding, and several years later we are still in love with the photos.

    Beyond the excellent photo quality and Nate's mastery in processing the photos, we were very pleased with his ability to be flexible and positive during the day of the wedding. Nate always has a smile on his face and is quick on his feet to make sure he doesn't miss a moment. When the day comes and things inevitably start going wrong, it's a relief to know your photographer is adaptable, positive, and calm. We can't recommend him enough!
