Telling Stories Through Candid Imagery
Hey there!
I'm Nick Rasmussen - a destination wedding + landscape photographer based in Oregon and Indiana who loves to travel. My style focuses on the intimate and raw moments of your wedding day through candid storytelling, with a cinematic, timeless feel and true to color images with slight warmth. Recently, I shot a wedding where the bride made her dress almost entirely from found things in the woods, and another where the couple rented out an entire campground, spending the weekend with their all of their guests. These unique weddings and ideas are what I'm most drawn to as a photographer, though I've shot weddings of all sizes, atop mountains and in mansions, on cruise boats and in national parks, and focus primarily on capturing your style and story in a unique way. I'm not one for the perfect, super posed images, though I am proficient with flash if I feel the need to use it, and usually throw it on my camera in low light situations. I shoot on both digital + film, and I'm always up for breaking out my film camera at your wedding, which can be added-on for a small price. I recently started offering highlight videos shot on Super 8mm film, which can also be added-on to any photo package or booked on its own.
I am heavily inspired by breathtaking landscapes and the seemingly mundane moments of life, and these inspirations are what caused me to pick up a camera over 8 years ago and why I still have one with me 24/7. Out of all the things I shoot, weddings & landscapes are my favorite to capture. I am drawn to every aspect of a wedding day and it is my goal to capture everything from the small details to unnoticed laughs and tears and golden facial expressions. I believe every part of a wedding is important, so I make it my goal to catch not just the big moments, but EVERY moment that I can. I love using natural light to my advantage, and give prompts more often than specific poses to make my couples feel as natural and genuinely them as possible. I'm always here to answer questions, even if you don't decide to hire me as your photographer!
Can't wait to chat with you and your fiancé about your 2023 or 2024 wedding!! Let's make some magic.

Nick photographed my wife and I's wedding in Indianapolis in 2021 and we have nothing but great the nags to say about him! He was professional, easy going, respectful, and took amazing photographs! Nick does a great job of portraits as well as images of the venue.
From looking at Nick's portfolio, we knew we loved his work and it was great to see images of our day shot in his style with his touch. Could not have imagined a better photographer!
We are obsessed with the photos Nick took for our destination wedding. He was such a calming presence for everyone—and he is amazing at detail shots and capturing real moments, as well as posed family/party photos. Such a kind soul and talented photographer!
Nick is an amazing photographer! He is very personable and made my fiancé and I so comfortable in front of the camera during our engagement shoot! Not only does he have great communication, I felt like he really listened to what I wanted and helped give advice where needed. SO excited to have Nick as our wedding photographer in a few short months - I already know the photos are going to be AMAZING!
Any questions?
A true artist. Nick captures the true essence of our love. Nick & his team are friendly and warm folk. My husband (who normally hates being
in photos) loved how effortless it was! I highly recommend Nick!!
Nick is an amazing photographer. His eye for detail is incredible. He was a superhero all day at my wedding. We got the photos sent to us in a timely manner and he gave us several sneak peaks beforehand. Not only did we get beautiful images of us and our wedding party but we got several candid photos of the day and of our friends and family having fun. They are memories I will cherish forever and I cannot thank Nick enough!
Nick was awesome! He is so nice and professional and he’s great at capturing intimate moments that matter the most. He’s great at working with large families for the perfect shot as well as just one person or the couple to tell them what to do. He’s easy to communicate with and very laid back. And the photos are STUNNING in the end. Definitely recommend!
A well thought out, minimal, and very talented wedding photographer. Nick uses his skills as a film photographer on his off days to his full advantage. He knows the so much of what it takes to be a true photographer, and so you will be glad when you hire him for your wedding.
Nick was absolutely the best. Loved his style! He was very attentive to what the bride wanted as well as the wedding party. He made the shoot so so fun! Stellar photos!!!
Nick captured our wedding perfectly. Being thrown into a completely new culture, custom and tradition, he used his expertise and skills to capture all that was important to us. As someone who does not enjoy endless hours spent photographed, he utilized his time and provided direction that left us with a digital memory of the best day thus far.
Nick is a talented photographer, and he did a fantastic job capturing our wedding. He is very professional and was tremendous at capturing great pictures while remaining in the background and no disruption at all. We did an off-site photoshoot between the wedding and the reception, and he helped us feel comfortable, and was able to take lots of great pictures in several locations in no time at all. We would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a good wedding photographer!

I'm so glad you love the photos!! I do try to be a fly on the wall, but I believe that you can capture the best, candid moments that way. Thanks for your kind words!!
Nick is hugely committed to his craft—the breadth of his body of work is phenomenal, and strengthens each individual facet! He does excellent and artistic work, and the results prove it! I highly recommend him and his photography.

Wow. Thank you so much for your kind words, Grace. I'm so glad you enjoy my work.
Nick is beyond belief when it comes to his photography skills and post-shoot editing. What most people don’t realize is that he is a seasoned world traveler, taking thousands of shots of Icelandic wastelands, Grecian forests, tropical vistas, and portraits of incredible people across the planet. Hundreds of hours of art study while putting together his portfolio has allowed him to explore his unique style and develop a professional eye for the truly beautiful. With Nick as your photographer, he won’t just take pictures of your big day, he will absolutely capture your personality.
Response from the Vendor on 07/21/2019
Okay now... let's not get carried away here. I haven't actually been to Greece -- sorry to disappoint. I will agree that all the studying and traveling has allowed me to explore and create my unique style, and I'm so glad you enjoy my work!
Nick’s photos are stunning. He has an eye to capture the most beautiful and meaningful parts of the day. He is thoughtful with his work which produces beautiful and emotional photos. He is also so good to work with and makes you feel so at ease. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for your review, Katie!!
Nick is fantastic. He has a creative eye and a wonderful personality! He goes above and beyond in capturing all of the details of the wedding day. Our engagement shoot was in our neighbors yard at a rustic barn. He then had the idea to take photos of us walking down the road together which are now some of our favorites! He gets the sunlight at the best hour too.
Couldn’t be happier with our photos from Nick!

Nick is a master at capturing the essence of a moment. His photos are stunning, as he is incredibly perceptive. His flawless and artistic photography is like none that I’ve seen.

Thanks for your review!!
We were very pleased to have Nick shoot our engagement pictures. He showed up early, eagerly sought out our input, shot for as long as we liked, and gave us many suggestions. He is super personable and easy to work with. Couldn’t recommend Nick more!!

Hi! I'm Nick, a twenty-six year old, full-time wedding and photographer.
Rewind to 2017... I was shooting one of my first weddings in the mountains of Montana, and it was that day that made me want to shoot full-time! I fell in love with the entire process - planning, shooting, editing - basically everything but the finance part... After graduating college in 2018, I put my photo degree to work and began shooting weddings, and I can't imagine doing anything else. I've shot over 50 weddings in the past four years and can't wait to keep capturing these special moments all around the US.
