Oregon & Michigan Wedding Photographer
Welcome!
My name is Mioara and I'm an avid traveler, adventure lover, photo obsessed wedding photographer. I'm forever inspired to create fun, classic, pictures that make couples not only look good, but feel good.
I believe wedding photos should reflect your true authentic self. My mission is to capture the essence of who you are so that 20 years from now, you can look back at these pictures and say "That was totally US!" My best advice to any newly engaged couple: treat your wedding experience with intention and keep your future selves in mind. After all is said and done, your photos and rings are some of the only things you get to take away and this is a story you'll get to share for the rest of your lives together. Make it a good one.
If this sounds like the type of photography you'd get excited for, fill out my contact form here! Please note, I take on a limited amount of weddings per year to make sure that every couple I get to work with has my full attention and is well taken care of.
A bit more About Me...
I've been artfully documenting celebrations of love for over 14 years & couldn't imagine doing anything else.
My work has taken me across the world to places like Romania, Iceland, Thailand, the beautiful American southwest as well as the pacific north west. I go on road trips often and will pretty much go anywhere to photograph you!
My love for fashion editorials is what inspired me to be a photographer first.
And my love for people brought me to weddings! As my previous couples can attest, I have a tendency to turn into your own personal hype girl behind the lens and I like to harness my inner editorial photographer at every wedding to create images that tell your unique story.

When I'm not working I'm probably
exploring the great outdoors
being one with nature. It sounds cliché but have you ever felt how small you are on a mountain top? It's exhilarating.
running... yes, for fun!
my job is very physical so I try to stay in shape to keep up with all of my couples' adventures!
campfires are my happy place
one of my favorite things about living in Oregon now is that I get to enjoy endless campfires every spring and fall.
sorry TLC, I love chasing waterfalls
I found this one in Romania, the Bigar Cascade Falls. Pictures cannot do it justice!
my favorite show is a good sunset
but New Girl is a close second!
I will paddleboard any body of water I see
This couple was celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary at the Salton Sea and I just happened to capture a magical moment prior to hanging out & sharing travel stories! It's one of my all time faves. 😇
