I’m Travis Hale

~ Driven by a deep connection to the rugged landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, my work is less about capturing a “pretty picture” and more about translating the raw soul of a place into something you can feel long after you’ve seen it.

The forests, waterfalls, and mountains are more than just backdrops—they are living, breathing presences. I aim to photograph them with honesty and reverence, revealing both their power and their quiet grace. Every image I create is a reflection of what it feels like to stand there in that moment: the roar of water echoing through moss-covered canyons, the silence of a snow-draped peak, or the way light bends through mist at dawn.

My style blends fine art with cinematic storytelling—moody, timeless, and immersive. These prints are meant not just to decorate walls, but to ground and inspire, to bring the spirit of the wild into everyday life.

In addition to fine art landscape prints, I now offer wedding and portrait photography rooted in the same principles. For weddings, I focus on authentic moments and the landscape’s role in your story—elopements on windswept ridgelines, intimate ceremonies beneath ancient trees, or dusk-lit portraits by a river. My approach captures the emotional truth of your day with compositional care and cinematic light, creating images that feel both immediate and enduring.

Portrait sessions are tailored to reveal personality and presence, whether you want environmental portraits that include the textures of the Pacific Northwest or classic studio-style images with a fine art sensibility. I prioritize comfort, connection, and collaboration so the resulting portraits are honest, evocative, and unmistakably you.

These services share one commitment: to craft photographs that resonate emotionally and stand the test of time—whether hanging in your home as a print or carried in your heart as a memory.

Thank you for taking the time to explore my work. I hope my photographs connect you to the same sense of wonder, solitude, and belonging that I find in the Pacific Northwest. If you’re interested in wedding or portrait sessions, I’d love to discuss how we can tell your story.
