“From the moment we first met Marcela we knew she was ‘our person.’

Sienna & Angelo

“Marcela is an absolute GODDESS. I would give 10,000 stars if possible. Did our engagement photos – incredible, gorgeous, stunning! Then I felt so reassured and safe when she showed up on our wedding day and I knew she would take care of us! She is worth every damn penny and more. You will NOT be disappointed in your fabulous, fabulous photos from this photographer. Thank you Marcela!!!”

Kim & Daniel

“I can’t express enough how amazing Marcela was during our Elopement. The entire process from the first phone call to getting the final photos was seamless. Leading up to and after the photoshoot, I really appreciated how she communicated – I always knew what was going on and what to expect. If you’re still reading this, don’t hesitate to book her. I can’t express enough how amazing she is – 1000% recommend Marcela.”

Priscila & Lenny

“Marcela is a talented visionary, who understood and shared my vision for our wedding photos. I feel so lucky we were able to have her shoot for our civil ceremony. She was punctual, considerate, flexible, and so easy to be around. I had never hired a photographer for an event before, so I didn’t know what to expect; she made the bridal portraits fun despite the cold weather. Her portfolio speaks for itself, and I would definitely recommend Marcela to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!”

Gina & Tyrell

“If I could leave more than 5 starts I would. Marcela is a dream to work with. She took our engagement and wedding photos. For the engagement session we really didn’t know what we wanted, so she set up a studio session for us and worked with the natural light to pose us and get some great shots. She captured our “album cover” as my husband likes to say 🙂 On our wedding day, she was punctual, professional, and captured some amazing shots. I cannot recommend her more highly. We are so grateful to have had such an amazing photographer and person capture the best day ever!”

Amanda & Paris

“Marcela has taken photos for my little family a few times now and she delivers DAMN GOOD PHOTOS! Not only is she an amazing photographer but she has become a dear friend. Marcela is creative, goes above and beyond for her clients, and she cares A LOT! She delivers photos that are authentic, with her own moody twist. She puts a lot of thought into her locations, and always captures the personality of her subjects. I can not recommend this lovely lady enough.”

Maddie & Austin

“Marcela is a not only a fantastic photographer but also a great person to be around. She has that gift of capturing a moment so organically. We instantly felt so comfortable with her, and she does a great job helping people like me, who aren’t always super comfortable in front of the camera, feel confident! Truly, we had the best experience working with Marcela, we are so grateful for her and her work!!! If you are considering Marcela to capture one of your major life events, don’t hesitate!!!”

Markie and Mehran stopped by Powell's Bookstore in downtown Portland during their French Cinema inspired engagement session where they held each other closely and read books to one another. By Marcela Pulido Photography, Destination and Portland Wedding Photographer.

Markie & Mehran

“Marcela is amazing. From the moment you meet her, camera bag and cheesin’ smile in tow, her love for her work is gleaming and apparent. When shooting our engagement photos, she was thrilled to understand our vision and bring it to life. In addition to taking exceptionally beautiful photographs, she’s simply a true pleasure to work with. Thank you for capturing us as we are, Marcela!”

Cara Beth & Malcolm

“Marcela traveled to our wedding in the Columbia Gorge last summer and this review is long overdue. Working with her leading up to the event was easy breezy, and she showed up and seamlessly got to work both for our rehearsal dinner and our wedding day. She did a fabulous job while on-site, and the photos she took still make me cry almost a year later with their beauty and perfection. She intuitively knew when to (very lightly) nudge us for posed photos and when to sink back into the fray a bit and just soak up the scene. I feel such immense gratitude to have had her as a part of our celebration, and for the phenomenal photos she captured. Her photography talent and what it produces are the gift of a lifetime. I would recommend her without reservation, again and again and again.”
