Bryan Rupp Photography

Bryan is not only a phenomenal photographer, but a wonderful person where you instantly feel like friends! When we initially started reaching out to different photographers for our wedding, he was the first one to call and set up a coffee date. Once we met him, we could not have been happier! He's incredibly friendly, professional, organized, and has an eye for photography that captures the moments you'll cherish forever. Our pictures turned out absolutely perfect, and we HIGHLY recommend him!

Bryan deserves 6 stars. He truly is one-of-a-kind and the best photographer my wife & I could have asked for. I don't care if Ansel Adams could have shot our wedding; I still would have worked with Bryan. What set him apart for me (in addition to his supremely creative eye) was how good of a friend he was during our wedding day. You form a strangely intimate relationship with your wedding photographer. He/she is possibly the one person who you spend more time with than your significant other, starting from the "getting ready" preparations to the last dance. Luckily, I had Bryan. He was cool under pressure, kept me even keeled when general wedding issues bubbled up (like one bus not showing up to take guests to the venue), and knew exactly how to guide my wife and I through the day. I'm a Bryan Rupp fan and can't speak highly enough about my experience with him. Hiring him should be the easiest wedding decision you make.

We couldn't be happier with our finished product and are so greatful that we chose Bryan Rupp as our wedding photographer. Bryan's photos of our wedding do more than document the day, they tell a story. When we think back on that day we are overwhelmed by the joy, love and support we felt. Bryan's photos capture these emotions in a way we didn't even know was possible. We could say something positive about every photo which is INSANE. Bryan did a great job helping us plan the timing of our day. I am admitidley a bit of a control freak so when Bryan had different ideas on how the morning and timing should go prior to the ceremony it look me awhile to wrap my head around it. In the end I am so glad we followed his advice. He really is a professional and finds an excellent balance between letting the client make the day their own and incorporating his expertise. The day went so smoothly and stress free thanks to his advice. Bryan's style authentically captures the day because he doesn't over produce anything. There are lots of way to capture a wedding but if you stay authentic to who you are you can't go wrong. We are so happy with his work and will recommend you to all our friends!

My wife and I spent countless hours searching for photography vendors in the Portland-metro area, with each portfolio looking the same as the last -- until we saw Bryan's work on his blog: http://www.bryanruppphotographyblog.com/ On no other website did we feel as though we wanted to attend every wedding photographed. The photos were all candid, and real! Bryan had a way of capturing real identities of people. After spending over an hour looking through his work, we called him that evening to book straight away. As an out-of-town couple, we scheduled a few skype conversations with Bryan so he could get to know us and our style, as well as for us to confirm that he would match our needs. When we flew out to Oregon a few months before the wedding we met for coffee with Bryan to review a draft schedule and create a basic shot list. Bryan was attentive, supportive, and extremely thoughtful -- he put out mind at ease throughout the entire wedding process. On the day of, Bryan had already coordinated with the other vendors to make sure that we didn't need to arrange any logistics during the ceremony or reception. Bryan and his assistant Hannah were excellent at turning what can be a tired and awkward situation (posed photos), into a truly enjoyable and relaxing experience. All this being said above, we waited until we received our photos -- which by our respective parents' standards took "far too long" (2-3 months). However, we were confident that the wait, which Bryan fully disclosed early-on, would be worth it. After the initial 100+ photos (of more than 1,100 taken that day), were posted to his blog, we confirmed that our photographer choice could not have been better. Bryan's work still makes my jaw drop. We are able to relive the day throughout countless moments through all of his candid work. We continue to receive complements on the beautiful pictures from our friends and family, with many of our twenty-something friends saying that they will call Bryan for their weddings. After we received the remaining photos online and via mail on DVD, we asked Bryan to change a few photos from B/W to color, which he did at no charge and within a week of our request. Bottom line: amazingly creative guy who is at the top of his craft. Worth every penny and then some. Thank you, Bryan!
