eugene oregon wedding photographer

Are you searching for the perfect photographer for your Eugene, Oregon wedding?

Glen Johnson is a professional wedding photographer with a unique blend of photojournalism and bold portrait styles. This style, called Portrait Journalism, has evolved into the most desired form of wedding photography because it creates a
collection of images with a combination of dramatic creative portraits of the Bride and Groom, and a large selection of
shots that are natural and spontaneous - capturing your family and friends in a way that minimizes the posed look
and the awkward interruptions throughout the day.

Over the past nine years, Glen has shot hundreds of weddings in the US, and over 40 destination weddings in countries outside the US.
This experience is priceless when it comes to capturing the natural, un-posed story of a wedding as it unfolds.

In 2006 the publisher John Wiley and Sons asked Glen to put this experience down in a book, and this book has quickly become the most popular book on the topic of digital wedding photography. You can find the finished product, titled: Digital Wedding Photography, on the shelves at any major bookstore in the US or on the Internet.

If you're looking for exceptional wedding photography, we hope you take some time to browse through the slideshow links above where you'll find hundreds and hundreds of pictures. This should give you an excellent view into the type of images Glen creates. And the creativity you find there will attest to the fact that Glen has no set formula for wedding photograhy and no limits on what a wedding photograph can be. Every wedding is unique - the pictures should be too.

Pricing: Read about the Creative Fee and other details about how wedding photographers price their services,
and how this fee structure determines the motivation for the types of photos they take.

All original files are shot in RAW format, then back in the office we spend hours individually color correcting each image - adjusting the brightness/darkness and color balance as necessary to bring out the absolute best in every shot we take.

We're All Digital: Glen creates his unique wedding images with Canon Professional Digital Cameras and lenses. He currently shoots with Canon 5D camera bodies. Glen shoots everything in RAW format for the high quality and extreme flexibility of exposure these files allow. Once we get the images back in the office, we spend hours color correcting each and every image in your set - adjusting the brightness/darkness and color balance as necessary to bring out the absolute best in every shot we take. For your final disks we convert the RAW files to JPEG files unless you specifically request to receive the RAW files instead.

If you happen to be shopping wedding photographers, be sure to ask if they shoot everything in RAW format as this has a tremendous effect on the final image quality. Read more about RAW.

Eugene / Springfield area wedding locations & Links

Blue Rooster B&B huge barn 5 min south of Eugene in rolling hills. Space for roughly 100 people inside barn. Great summertime location. Barn is very nice but still a bit open to the cold weather as barns always are. Best in warm weather.
Belknap Hot Springs 45 min up in the Cascades from Eugene. River, old growth forest. Rental cabins. Rooms in the hotel to rent. Plenty of space for large or small weddings and can easily accomodate 3 or 4 weddings at the same time with full privacy for each.
The Campbell House Right in downtown near 1st and Pearl (I think). Can only accommodate about 40 max. in the ceremony location.
Chateau Loraine 45 min south of Eugene. Great for large groups up to perhaps 300. Beautiful grounds right on the side of a very beautiful lake.
The Coburg Country Inn 5 min. North of Eugene. Great for large groups. Has two seperate locations that can be used at the same time. Indoor reception location at both sites. Very nice grounds. Lots of Gazebo & Roses type design on the grounds. Visit website.
Eagle Rock Lodge 35 min up the McKenzie River from Eugene. Right along the McKenzie river. Beautiful grounds. Lots of room to set up big tents alongside the river. Very private. You get the whole place for the whole weekend. Extremely beautiful natural looking grounds with some old growth trees. Visit website
Hinman Vinyard 20 min south of Eugene. Any size groups. Can accomodate 100+ indoors. Very beautiful grounds with lots of Vineyards and rolling hills.
McKenzie View B&B just northeast of Springfield. Large house with beautiful property right along the river. Good for groups up to 100.
Odell Lake Lodge 1 hr east of Eugene in Cascades. Beautiful but can be a bit cold in September. Very rustic. Rantal cabins and rooms in the lodge. Lots of space to make your own ceremony location by the lake or in the woods.
Shelter Cove Lodge also located on Odell lake. Same as above but lodge and cabins are a bit more modern and a bit less rustic charm.
Wayfarer Resort 20 min up the Mckenzie River. I think this might be my favorite location for your size group. Plenty of privacy, not too far from town. 6 Rental cabins and a central lodge. Very nice waterfront along the McKenzie river.
Whisper-n-Oaks 20 min towards Monroe on Hwy 99. Surrounded by working wheat farms. Beautiful setting custom designed specifically for weddings. Any size groups. No indoor facilities except dressing rooms for Bride & Groom.

Custom Wedding and Engagement Rings Eugene Oregon
As you may know from the blog, Amelie and I are engaged now. But before I popped the question I had to have a ring of course. Amelie and I searched for weeks all over Oregon and Greece without finding anything that really jumped out at us. Then I met Gary Dawson of Goldworks down on 169 E. Broadway (near Zenon's) and he specializes in creating custom jewelry. We sat down and worked out ideas to create a ring that is one-of-a-kind and it is even more special to me and Amelie just because I had so much control over every little detail in the design. I had the most wonderful time desigining and creating this perfect engagement ring with Gary and I would like to HIGHLY reccomend him. It came out perfect and I can't reccomend Gary enough. He is a very gifted artist and he's also just a great guy.
Check out the slideshow I made about the custom wedding ring creation process. It shows a lot of the physical making of the ring but I didn't get anything about the two hours I spent sitting with Gary and brainstorming about my version of the perfect ring and picking out just the right stones to go in it.

 

 

What Brides have to say.....

Glen,

We received the wedding photos a couple days ago and are truly ecstatic with them. From past brides, and looking over your website, we knew that they would turn out good; however they have far surpassed our expectations. There is something so special when you actually get to see your self as the "bride & groom." The images that you captured have are a priceless gift, one that we both will cherish for many years to come.

While we panicked that we ran out of time to do all of the group photos, your photo-journalistic style captured our wedding party and family as they really are. Showing their many emotions from tears to laughter, something that takes a special photographer to capture. Words can't express how much we appreciate you being apart of our wedding, and giving us the best wedding gift of all...your talent.

Our advice to future brides: Don't shy away because of the cost of Glen's work. You won't remember what the cake tasted like, nor what wine you served. Your photographs are what lasts a lifetime...and Glen's work is worth the memories that you will continue to cherish for many years.

Thank you Glen for all of your hard work on our wedding day!

Sincerely,

Miklyn & Josh Perdue
