Please view Kevin’s partial film Resume Columbia Gorge Images strives to provide the highest quality images at an affordable price. The marriage ceremony is a joyful occasion for family and friends to witness and validate the joining of two lives in a lovely, intimate, and sacred ritual. I believe that it is only responsible to preserve the day through high quality photographs and video. During the wedding event, brilliant, unexpected photo opportunities arise continuously and they are not to be missed. Timing, position and anticipation are hallmarks of true professional photographers. Columbia Gorge Images has many years of experience capturing these special moments. In my opinion, planning, preparedness and experience facilitate the creative process. In addition to many years of wedding photography and videography experience, I have over 30 years of film production experience in television commercials, feature films and National Geographic documentaries. Visit the “testimonials” page and read the endorsement from Gil Grosvenr, Chairman of the Board of National Geographic. Based on our experiences at National Geographic, Gil chose me over all others to shoot his daughters wedding. Read the endorsement of Teresa Ellifritz, Hood River’s premier wedding planner and owner of Columbia Gorge Weddings. Teresa chose me to shoot her 10 year Vow Renewal. These testimonials speak to my reputation, just as my resume is a documentation of my career to date and your assurance that I am a true professional with the experience to justify your trust. You will, in fact, find photographers who are more expensive, but I doubt you will find one with more experience, awards or credentials. When planning your marriage ceremony, keep in mind that long after the champagne and flowers are gone, you will have each other and your treasured video and photographs.
