MEET LIZ
HI FRIENDS
I'm the girl behind the lens. I was born in Huntington, California and raised in good old Sherwood, Oregon. I am probably one of the loudest people you'll ever meet but I have a BIG heart. I will make you pee your pants laughing, and once that happens you already know we are meant to be friends! You'll find me drinking coffee, snacking on brownie cookies + cookie dough, or watching reruns of New Girl + ONE TREE HILL (seriously love those shows). I am a mom to a Pitbull Labrador mix who is soooo loved and spoiled + Charlee, a Sheppard, to smart for his own good + my new favorite Oliver, an aussie with a BIG OLE BOOTY!
I am the wife of a wonderful man who puts up with way too much sass from me. He also happens to be one of my additional photographers for events. So you know when you hire us, its GONNA BE A GOOD TIME!
I am a huge adventurer! I cant wait to see more of the world. I have a bucket list of where I want to go (who doesn't?) - Next stop is Samoa or Ireland. You'll find me in Bend, OR or at the Oregon coast for bonfires and beer with my friends. I am all about living the PNW life. I practically live out of a suitcase!
Can I be your third wheel already?
Its no secret by now, that I want to make your love story tell its story through a photograph. All the kisses, laughs, tickle sessions, + stories on who made the first move. I want to be apart of that. ITS A BIG DEAL! I've photographed 150+ weddings and can not wait to photograph yours! I just love LOVE. I love capturing candid moments at weddings, of couples, of babies and family's, and even boudoir. But here's the thing, I am not just your photographer - I'll be your hairstylist, your therapist, your seamstress, your bartender, your comedian, and you can bet I'll be your dance partner on the dance floor to Cha Cha Slide.
We’re going to be friends. Let's get coffee or tacos + chat!
“Liz seriously did such an amazing job for mine and my girlfriend’s photos. She knew exactly what poses to give us and how to make us feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the whole shoot. Without a doubt recommend her for any couple looking for a couple / wedding photographer!”
- Sarah + Mike
MEET THE DAHLKES
Long story short, started with a date at Red Robin (he was my waiter, funny I know right?)
Then a weekend away in Bend, Oregon for a birthday party and we’ve been together ever since! Fast forward four months later Kyle proposed + now here we are 5 years later with three dogs, a house in a small town, two successful careers, and following Jesus.
