Some weddings just feel different—not because of the flowers or the décor (although, let’s be real, this one had both), but because of the people. The wedding photography at Villa Ragalie in Corbett, Oregon was one of those experiences that carried extra meaning. It wasn’t just about saying “I do.” It was about celebrating who they are, the things they love, and the people who matter most. And honestly? It was pure joy to capture.
Villa Ragalie isn’t just a backdrop — it’s part of the groom’s family, which made every detail feel layered with meaning. Getting married in a place that already held memories brought a sense of intimacy, even within all the grandeur. Between lush greenery, classic whites, and soft lavender touches, the space felt straight out of a romantic film.
Julie and Titus are the kind of couple who instantly feel like old friends — laid-back, genuine, and completely in sync. And their wedding was unapologetically them.
Sure, some couples bring their personality into the day with décor, but these two brought their cars and guns. That twist gave us some of the most memorable portraits I’ve ever shot. From cinematic car shots to playful-yet-dramatic firearm portraits, it was bold, real, and unforgettable.
If there’s one word for the day: joy. Julie’s dad seeing her in her dress. Titus’ face when she walked down the aisle. Their first dance. The laughter, the tears, the wild dance floor energy. Every part of the day was infused with love that you could feel in the air.Why Outdoor Weddings Feel So Magical
There’s something about intimate outdoor weddings that makes time slow down. Surrounded by Oregon’s natural beauty and the people who matter most, the day felt present, unhurried, and alive. With space to breathe, every glance and every laugh felt bigger, deeper, and more meaning.

My approach is always to capture more than perfection — it’s about the candid looks, the happy tears, the messy laughter, and yes, even the epic car shots that make your day uniquely yours. Julie and Titus’ Villa Ragalie wedding was everything I love about photography: cinematic, heartfelt, and true to the couple.
Here’s to their forever — filled with love, fast cars, and unforgettable adventures.
