The beaches of Washington, Oregon, and California are some of my favorite places to shoot elopements. Katie + Ben decided that they wanted to have their elopement take place on the Oregon coast, with the Pacific Ocean in the background as they said their wedding vows.
Katie + Ben wanted their Oregon elopement to reflect what they love best, which includes adventuring around the coastline and seeing what Oregon has to offer! Their wedding ceremony had them perched high above the waves, and then we ventured down to sea level for some beachside wedding photos. At this specific spot, there is a seasonal waterfall that is only accessible during low tide. Luckily, we were able to sneak around the cape so that Ben + Katie could have some moments with the ocean waves and waterfall mist. Talk about romantic!
After having a waterfall be a part of their wedding day, we went to Cannon Beach; where the famous Haystack Rock looms in the distance. Katie + Ben’s beach wedding was just what these two wanted: low-key, romantic, and picturesque.

California is home to thousands of miles of coastline, stretching from Oregon to Mexico. Northern California beaches are nearby the redwoods, which give a fun balance when it comes to a Northern California Elopement!
The central coast of California boasts Mediterranean vibes and doubles as a honeymoon destination: think Santa Barbara and Ventura!
As we head further down south, Malibu and Laguna Beach are some of my favorites for beach weddings and elopements in California.
