weddings, elopements, portraits — oh my!
from large weddings to small elopements to family photos to senior portraits - we document both big milestones and the sweet in-between moments in life
Weddings
500 weddings? We’ve lost count, but we remember every one. We take on ~25 weekend weddings a year and are no strangers to travel; in the past year we’ve shot weddings in Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, DC, Minneapolis, Alabama, Milwaukee, Ohio, Maryland, Kentucky, and Virginia. (And all over WV, of course!)
Elopements
Even before 2020 (😅), we were no strangers to elopements and microweddings! We’ve since expanded our packages for smaller weekday nuptials, and love documenting (& helping couples plan) these little, laid back days.
Portrait Sessions
We love portrait sessions of all kinds! Our specialities are family portraits, senior portraits, and branding/headshot sessions. We also have a knack for photographing the furry buddies in your life, so if you’re obsessed with your fur-babies and would rather plaster your walls with photos of them, we’re probably the photographers for you.

What’s in a name?
OBER-PORT
The Oberports is a combination of our last names - Bobby OBERlander and Emily PORTer. It started as an affectionate nickname among friends (at first they tried Portlanders but.... yeah), and now it's also our business name!
