because I love people and I love THE PLANET
I love all types of people, and yet all types of people are
not always celebrated in the wedding industry, or in
outdoor spaces.
F that.
To my kindred adventurous souls, to the BIPOC
community, to the disabled, to my fellow members of
the LGBTQ+ community — I’m here, welcoming you
with open arms.
You deserve a wedding experience you’ll never
forget, regardless of what you look like, how old you
are, or who you love. And I’m going to make sure you
get it. Read my diversity and inclusion policy.

I’ve always felt a deeper, more spiritual connection to the Earth. And it’s
easy to see why, living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. But even
outside the region — like in Idaho where I grew up, western Montana
where I’ve vacationed, or northern California where I’ve hiked —
Mother Nature’s gifts are everywhere.
Now, it’s my turn to pay back some of the joy our planet has given me.
I’ve invested in becoming a Leave No Trace aware photographer,
conserving energy through my personal and business choices, and
continuing to lean into environmental activism.

So we can unite with a shared commitment to take action for planet, inclusion, and adventure.
So we can teach more explorers how to
enjoy nature while also protecting it.
So we can preserve the incredible Columbia
River Gorge for future generations to enjoy.
So we can continue to increase the visibility of LGBTQ+ people enjoying the outdoors.
So we can protect these keystone
predators and their natural habitats.
Your love story. Our photography skills. Our collective love for adventure, nature,
social justice, and the Pacific Northwest. Sounds like a match made in heaven, no?
If you’ve been looking for a sign that it’s ok to ditch societal standards and elope in the Pacific Northwest, this is it. Ready to plan the adventure to top all adventures?
We had our first phone meeting with Nadia in the early stages of planning and she made us both feel so comfortable about our vision and expectations. She did so much scouting at our dream location which was helpful because we weren’t going to be able to see it before the wedding.
Nadia is so warm and makes you feel like you have been life long best friends. She is also extremely professional and exceptional at her craft. She braved the freezing cold on top of a mountain with us. She brought gloves with warmers for me and even extra blankets. She is so thoughtful. She really saved the day and came up with great ideas for new plans when the weather didn't cooperate. I would and have recommended her to all of my friends.

[Nadia] was so knowledgeable and did a TON of legwork planning our timeline to best capture the moments we wanted in the lighting we needed, recommending a variety of locations for some private moments as a couple and group activities with our family, and keeping us grounded and calm throughout the entire process.
She constantly reminded us that each moment was for us and encouraged us to revel in all of the details.
She has a knack for keeping wedding day energy light and helping her clients feel natural in front of the camera. I would recommend Nadia at Venture Ever After to everyone planning an elopement, wedding, or adventure in the PNW.

We would 100% recommend Nadia, Cassidy, and Venture Ever After for anyone looking to get married in the PNW.
We wanted something simple and easy, but even that came with some stressors. Nadia and Cassidy provided us with a detailed itinerary for the day and constant communication. On my elopement day we were so at ease. The photos were beautiful and everything we ever wanted. I appreciate being able to share those memories with the friends and family who could not come. Although Nadia and Cassidy were hired for photos and to officiate the ceremony, they helped with so much more. From flower shop recommendations, hotel stay suggestions, restaurants, even ceremony ideas.
We are forever grateful!

When my partner and I decided to elope in Olympic National Park, we knew finding a great photographer was the most important thing on our list.
She went above and beyond in so many ways; including securing our florals and bringing them to us the day of, AND, we had a small table delivered to her home for our private dinner that she brought to us as well. Her customer service is outstanding!
She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and she helped make our day incredible! You can tell that she really loves her job and cares for her clients deeply!

Working with/through Venture Ever After was a great experience, from start to finish.
[Nadia] is so generous with the amount of research she does for you...She helped make the whole process easy--and we live across the country.
Nadia is the nicest person you'll ever meet, and really cares about capturing the authenticity of the moments of your wedding/elopement day.
Nadia, thank you so much for your generosity, knowledge, patience, flexibility, kindness, craft, and love. You will be my highest recommendation for the rest of my life.
