Portland Ocean Gateway sits under a mile from the center of Portland — 4.6 ★ from 128 Google reviews. Senior photographers and filmmakers, travel included, prices published.
Every venue has a best hour for photographs and a worst one. We visit yours before the wedding to find where the ceremony light falls, where the family portraits hold up and where the reception needs a little help, so the plan is built on the room rather than on a guess.
From coastal estates to city hotels, Portland weddings carry a traditional rhythm: church or garden ceremony, formal portraits, a seated dinner. We run the family formals quickly and quietly so the rest of the evening can be candid. If we have not worked Portland Ocean Gateway yet we visit it before your day — light, timing, logistics — so nothing about the venue is a surprise on the morning of.
At Portland Ocean Gateway the sun sets at 8:24 PM in June and 5:57 PM in October, with golden hour opening around 7:40 PM on a June evening and 6:13 PM in late September. Start a summer ceremony near 5:39 PM and you will still have the good light for portraits; in autumn move it an hour earlier. The full month-by-month table is on our Portland page.
Selected frames from the Olivia Layne Studios portfolio — not photographs taken at this venue. Ask and we will send full galleries closest in size and setting to your wedding.
A collection costs the same at every venue we work: travel is included and there are no venue fees. The prices below are pay-in-full (the payment plan adds $500 with half down at booking). These are the eight-hour collections; the four-, six- and ten-hour versions are on the collections page.

$1,600 · The Anthem, 8 hours
A highlight film and extended edit cut from your own vows and toasts.
$3,600 · The Heritage, 8 hours
One team for both, plus a complimentary engagement session.
Not yet, and we would rather tell you so. We visit Portland Ocean Gateway before your wedding and plan the ceremony light, the portrait spots and the walking time between them.
No. Olivia Layne Studios works nationwide and travel is part of every collection, so a wedding at Portland Ocean Gateway is priced exactly like one in our own neighbourhood.
Most Portland couples book eight to twelve months out; peak summer and autumn dates go first. A signed agreement and your deposit hold the date, and the balance is due two weeks before the wedding.
