Beautiful photographs without turning your day into a photoshoot.
I photograph weddings and elopements across Oregon and the Pacific Northwest with a documentary approach, a little artful direction, and an eye for all the in-between moments you didn't know you'd want to remember.
Storytelling at heart. Artful when it counts. Always down for the adventure.
Oregon wedding and elopement photography for the wildly in love, the sentimental and the people who want to remember how it actually felt.
Let's Tell Your Love Story, Shall We?
I've photographed 150+ weddings, and the thing I've learned is that the photographs you'll treasure most aren't always the ones you planned for.
They're the shaky breath before the ceremony, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the five minutes you sneak away together, your grandmother's hands, and the way your partner looks at you when they think nobody's watching.
That's what I'm paying attention to.
I'll give you direction when you want it, disappear when you don't, and make sure the photographs feel like you rather than a version of you performing for the camera.
Equal parts chill and type-A crazy, with a big heart and a tiny voice, I'm here to make your photo dreams come to life. Just bring you and your love, I'll bring the camera.

I would say hire her for any and all important moments! The photos are beautiful and working with her was a treat. We couldn't have asked for someone more kind, thoughtful, generous, and truly passionate about her work and the people she was working with - everything felt so specific to us as a couple and the wedding that we wanted and the things we wanted to capture. The process from start to finish couldn't have been more seamless, easy, and enjoyable. And now we have memories we will be able to look back on and feel right in the moment again.

"COULDN't have been more seamless."
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dani made everything feel easy and natural. I had no idea how she captured the moments she did, they were truly a gift to look at when everything seemed like a blur!I still get teary-eyed when we look at these photos. We will cherish these forever.

"EVERYTHING WE COULD HAVE ASKED FOR."
Thank you so much for the absolutely gorgeous photos for Kim & Josh's wedding. You are so incredibly talented, and your gift and sweet, sweet spirit blesses so many people. The moments you captured are truly a reflection of your heart, and I just can't tell you how grateful we are! Thank you so much & God Bless.

"TRULY A REFLECTION OF YOUR HEART."
Dani has been there for so many of our special moments.. engagement photos, wedding, maternity and first family photos!! We LOVED her from the moment we met her and I obsessed over her photos on Instagram before hiring her over 4 years ago and I continue to obsess over her photography. She is not only an extremely talented photographer but she is truly an amazing human. We have no talent for having our photo taken and are both fairly awkward during the process, but she somehow finds a way to capture the sweetest moments and guide you to make photos turn out spectacular! I wouldn’t go to anyone else for future photos and Highly recommend her! Remember you get what you pay for and the quality and overall experience you get with Dani is worth every penny!!

"YOU CAPTURED THE BEST MOMENTS!"
I knew we needed to go with Dani after seeing her pricing guide, it was so beautiful! Her whole process from start to finish made me feel so important and like I was her only bride even though I know she had tons! She captured the best moments, was not a "diva" about it but like a friend who knew exactly what I needed at every moment. She even helped get me sometime alone after the wedding when everyone was coming up to us! The photos were just the cherry on top. They were, of course, beautifiul and beyond what we could have imagined. I think we even got them back in less than two weeks. Thank you Dani for being exactly what we needed and beyond!

"Felt so important!"
Most couples who inquire tell me they're awkward in front of the camera. Good news: you don't need to know what to do. I'll guide you when you need direction, step back when you don't, and pay attention to everything happening in between. Nothing overly posed. Nothing stiff or performative. Just enough direction to make you feel confident while leaving room for the real stuff to happen.
The goal is to make your photographs feel like you and It's my job to bring that all out- especially on your wedding day.
YOU DONT HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO TAKE A GOOD PHOTO
WANT MORE?
HERE'S EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WORKING WITH ME
Your photographer is going to spend more time with you on your wedding day than almost anyone else. So I don't think my job starts when I arrive with a camera.
From the moment you book, I'm here to help you make sense of the timeline, talk through locations, recommend vendors, troubleshoot logistics, answer the weird questions, and make sure the things that matter most to you actually make it into your photographs. Your experience matters to me.
At Ronny and Rene Photography, I believe your wedding photos should feel like you. As an Oregon wedding photographer, I take time to get to know each couple—the quirks, the vision, and the little details that make your love story one-of-a-kind. From candid laughs to emotional moments, I use natural prompts and a relaxed approach to capture connection over perfection.
Whether you're camera-shy or totally confident, I promise you'll feel at ease. With a little guidance (yes, I’ll fix that stray hair!), we’ll create images that feel natural, not posed and yes, even the "awkward" couples end up looking amazing.
Gone are the days of stiff poses and fake smiles. My style is all about vibrant, warm, slightly moody imagery that reflects real emotion. Every wedding gallery is built around storytelling: the small glances, guest reactions, hands held tight, and every detail in between. Your love is real so your photos should be too.
When you book Ronny and Rene Photography, you're investing in heirloom-quality memories. From your first inquiry to gallery delivery, I’m with you every step from vendor recommendations and outfit guides to personalized wedding timeline planning. I’m your go-to person for everything wedding and photo-related.
What's more, I belive you should get to experience viewing your wedding galery while it is still fresh in your mind. Expect sneak peeks within 48 hours. You'll receive a beautifully curated, password-protected online gallery to share and cherish in 1-4 weeks.
