VOGUE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
THE
JOURNAL
I love the chemistry between a man and a woman. The romance, the energy, the intimacy-- and when, at their best, they really do pull out greatness in the other.
I have experienced many subjects and genres of photography over the years, but wedding photography always draws me back. The sheer intensity, the 'once in a lifetime' nature of it, and so much diversity in one day. From details (still life), family portraits, documentary photography, food, fashion photography-- Weddings have it all. I believe Simon Sinek said it best:
"Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress; working hard for something we love is called passion".

It was such a beautiful drive, I couldn’t believe I got to be outside on sucha a gorgeous day. Winding through the hills above Hood River, we headed to the quintessential Mt Hood Bed and Breakfast for the long awaited wedding celebration. The guests were marveling at the beautiful landscaping and with the backdrop of MT […]
This wedding blew my mind. It was what every photographer dreams of. A fantastic couple with supremely good taste and a thoughtful well organized team. It was the best of the best coming together to celebrate and capture a very special love story. Linda and Sean are very different, but simultaneously a beautiful compliment to […]
Resort at the Mountain is a lovely venue for weddings, the impeccable landscape, gently rolling greens and sunset vista is exactly what any photographer hopes for. Sean and Linda’s wedding at Resort at the Mountain was full of light, love and laughter. Peach and Blue hued tablescapes festooned the reception tent as guests clustered around […]
One of my favorite weddings to date because Andrew and Katrina are two of the most genuinely beautiful people I have ever encountered. Their love for each other, heart to serve, and delight in God’s goodness was clearly portrayed throughout their wedding day. To cap it all off we enjoyed the evening light right at the […]
Portland Senior photos are probably one of the most effortlessly enjoyable subjects to capture. This is Rhalina, with a vibrant personality and keen sense of humor to match her beautiful smile. Gotta love me some contrasts, and Rhalina is just that. When not donning her lacy heels, she’s killing it on the soccer field and […]
This is one of my favorite engagement to date, the film, the colors- the couple! It was a perfect day at the Beach even though we were surounded by thousands of Spring Break vacationers. With a little creativity it worked beautifully. Many thanks to Caprice Hammon Styling for the beautiful hair/makeup on Marissa. Fuji […]

"Christa is incredible. She really gets to know you, makes you feel comfortable and takes fabulous photos. Christa took our engagement photos, did a boudoir photo shoot for kate and did our wedding. We couldn't be happier with her.
"Christa is professional, fun, creative and in touch with her clients. She makes everyone look and feel beautiful. We could not be happier with her and her work."

Long before I was engaged, I knew I wanted Christa Taylor Photography to capture the special moments of my wedding. She more than met our expectations, and seldom a month goes by without somebody telling us how gorgeous our wedding pictures turned out!
Working with Christa is like finding some awesome girlfriend who completely gets you and can show you the beauty in whatever project you're undertaking. I recommend her to every bride I work with! Thank you, Christa, for your incredible work!

Christa is absolutely PHENOMENAL! My husband and I are beyond blessed to have had her capture our day! She was so great at directing people kindly and having fun too! She's a blast and we enjoyed the day more because of her! We loved getting to know her and she even had us to her home the week after our wedding for a brief photo shoot since the weather had been bad on the wedding day...she really went above and WAY beyond the call of a photographer and became our friend! She's the type we'd schedule a photo shoot with simply to see her and catch up!! There are not words to reccomend Christa highly enough! 💕We love you Christa!!
