Getting Married at Vista 222 &ndash; A Dream Wedding Venue in Grants Pass
&nbsp;
Last weekend, we had the absolute joy of capturing a beautiful wedding at Vista 222, one of Southern Oregon&rsquo;s most breathtaking wedding venues. Located just outside of Grants Pass, Vista 222 offers sweeping vineyard views, rolling hills, and stunning sunsets &mdash; all of which make for incredible wedding photography and wedding videography. This venue has it all: a romantic ceremony lawn overlooking the valley, a modern reception space, and plenty of beautiful spots for portraits. As photographers, we love when couples choose Vista 222 because every angle is picture-perfect, from golden hour portraits among the vines to dreamy nighttime shots under the market lights.
&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re planning a wedding in the Grants Pass or Medford area, Vista 222 should absolutely be on your list of venues to tour. Its scenic charm paired with its convenient location makes it ideal for both local couples and out-of-town guests. We can&rsquo;t wait to photograph more weddings here and capture even more love stories against this stunning backdrop. Whether you&rsquo;re dreaming of classic, romantic images or a highlight film that lets you relive your vows year after year, Love In Focus Photo Co. offers both wedding photography and wedding videography packages to make sure every moment is preserved beautifully.

Venue Feature- Vista 222

When you think about your wedding day, you probably imagine the details you&rsquo;ll never want to forget&mdash;the look on your partner&rsquo;s face as you walk down the aisle, the sound of your best friend&rsquo;s toast, or the way your parents danced like teenagers at the reception. Photos freeze those moments beautifully, but video brings them back to life. That&rsquo;s where a wedding videographer comes in!
At Love in Focus Photo Co., we know the decision to hire a videographer can feel overwhelming. Do you really need one? What should you look for? And how do you know you&rsquo;re choosing the right person? That&rsquo;s why we put together this ultimate guide to help you decide and make the process stress-free.
&nbsp;
<h2 data-end="870" data-start="833">Why Hire a Wedding Videographer?</h2>
<ul data-end="1363" data-start="872">
<li data-end="1024" data-start="872">
Relive the Sounds and Movements: Video captures things photos can&rsquo;t&mdash;the audio during your vows, the laughter, the music, and the speeches.
</li>
<li data-end="1219" data-start="1025">
Share with Loved Ones Who Can&rsquo;t Attend: Not everyone can make it to your wedding. A highlight film or ceremony recording lets family and friends feel like they were right there with you.
</li>
<li data-end="1363" data-start="1220">
A Different Perspective: Videographers often notice and capture candid in-between moments that you may not even see on the wedding day.
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2 data-end="1417" data-start="1370">What to Look for in a Wedding Videographer</h2>
<ol data-end="2408" data-start="1419">
<li data-end="1665" data-start="1419">
Style &ndash; Just like photographers, videographers have different styles. Do you love cinematic films that feel like a movie, or do you prefer something more documentary and natural? Watch sample highlight films on the portfolio page to get a feel for our work.
</li>
<li data-end="1831" data-start="1667">
Experience with Weddings &ndash; Weddings move quickly, and a videographer who knows the flow of a wedding day can anticipate the big moments before they happen.
</li>
<li data-end="2026" data-start="1833">
Teamwork with Your Photographer &ndash; Your videographer and photographer will be working side by side all day. It&rsquo;s so important they collaborate seamlessly instead of competing for space. That's one things that's great about going with one of our Photo+Video packages.
</li>
<li data-end="2214" data-start="2028">
Packages and Deliverables &ndash; Find out exactly what&rsquo;s included. Will you get a highlight film? Do you get the full audio files? How long will your film be, and how is it delivered?
</li>
<li data-end="2408" data-start="2216">
Reviews and Recommendations &ndash; Past couples are the best source of insight. Read reviews to see how our videographer worked under pressure and how clients felt about the final product. Check out our reviews tab!

The Ultimate Guide to Hiring a Wedding Videographer

Your engagement session is more than just a photo op&mdash;it&rsquo;s a celebration of your love story and a chance to capture the joy and connection between you two in a relaxed, beautiful way. It's also a good time to get to know your photographer and become comfortable with some of the poses/prompts for your wedding day. At Love In Focus Co., we know that stepping in front of the camera can feel a little intimidating at first, which is why we&rsquo;ve created this guide to help you feel confident, prepared, and totally yourself during your session.
Here are our top tips for preparing for your engagement photos:
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="892" data-start="856">1. Wear Complimentary Colors</h3>
This is one of the most important steps to help your photos pop in all the right ways. Choose tones that flatter your skin and complement your partner's outfit. Avoid neon colors, bright oranges, or anything that might wash you out. And seriously&mdash;don&rsquo;t forget to iron out those wrinkles! Need outfit inspiration? Head over to Pinterest and search: 📌 &ldquo;Engagement session outfits + [season or setting]&rdquo; (Think: Summer + Mountains or Fall + Forest)
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="1411" data-start="1362">2. Mix Textures and Patterns Thoughtfully</h3>
Try alternating a subtle pattern or textured fabric with a solid top that pulls from the same color palette. This adds visual interest while keeping the overall look cohesive. Avoid tight stripes or small patterns, though&mdash;they can cause a camera effect called Moire, which makes your photos look distorted.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="1770" data-start="1733">3. Accessorize with Intention</h3>
A cute jacket, scarf, belt, or hat can take your look to the next level. But don&rsquo;t go overboard with jewelry&mdash;your engagement ring is the star of the show! Keep it minimal and let your sparkle do the talking.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="2018" data-start="1987">4. Add a Personal Touch</h3>
Make your session feel like you. Have a favorite sports team? Love making pancakes together on Sundays? Let&rsquo;s capture those real-life moments too! Props, hobbies, or favorite spots can make your gallery more meaningful.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="2276" data-start="2247">5. Polish the Details</h3>
Clean that engagement ring (we&rsquo;ll definitely get a close-up shot!). Also, take time to trim and clean your nails&mdash;yes, even the guys. Dry skin, chipped polish, or dirty nails will show in photos. 💧Pro tip: Moisturize everything&mdash;especially hands, elbows, and lips.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="2586" data-start="2551">6. Pack a Mini Touch-Up Kit</h3>
Bring along chapstick, a hairbrush, blotting papers, hairspray, and touch-up makeup. The camera picks up everything, and staying photo-ready is easy with just a few essentials in your bag.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="2824" data-start="2786">7. If You plan to Dress Casually, dress Cleanly</h3>
If you're going for a casual vibe, that&rsquo;s great&mdash;just make sure your clothes are clean and presentable. Wear dark jeans or neutral pants with non-distracting tops (no big logos, cheesy graphics, or old sneakers, please). Clean shoes matter more than you&rsquo;d think!
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="3131" data-start="3095">8. Limit to Two Outfits Each</h3>
Stick to two outfits max&mdash;one casual, one dressy is a popular combo. More than two can eat up your session time with outfit changes. Want a different look without changing completely? Layering and accessorizing is your best friend.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="3412" data-start="3373">9. Bring a &ldquo;Save the Date&rdquo; Prop</h3>
Planning to use your engagement photos for invitations? Consider incorporating a custom sign, calendar, or prop with your wedding date for a fun and easy save-the-date photo.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="3638" data-start="3594">10. Wear Makeup (Even Just a Little)</h3>
Even if you don&rsquo;t normally wear makeup, a little bit can go a long way in photos. At the very least, swipe on black waterproof mascara (don&rsquo;t forget to curl your lashes!) and wear tinted chapstick. It adds that natural pop and keeps you from looking washed out.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="3949" data-start="3907">Bonus Tip #11: Bring Walking Shoes</h3>
Sometimes the best photo spots are a little off the beaten path. Toss in some comfy walking shoes to get to those dreamy locations before swapping into your photo-ready footwear.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="4180" data-start="4135">Bonus Tip #12: Exfoliate + Moisturize</h3>
The day before your session, exfoliate your face and lips gently, then moisturize generously. On the day of, bring lotion and reapply to your hands, elbows, and any exposed skin right before we start. Your skin will thank you in every photo.
&nbsp;
<h3 data-end="4447" data-start="4429">Final Thoughts</h3>
At Love In Focus Co., we&rsquo;re here to make your engagement session as relaxed and memorable as possible. Whether you're popping champagne in the forest, dancing barefoot in the field, or cozying up on a mountain overlook, your session is a chance to capture you, just as you are&mdash;joyful, in love, and full of anticipation for the adventure ahead.
Have questions or want help planning your session? We&rsquo;ve got you. Let&rsquo;s make some magic together.

Nestled in the heart of downtown Ashland, this iconic hotel brings timeless elegance, historic charm, and modern romance together in one perfect package.
Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, the Ashland Springs Inn offers an unforgettable backdrop for your wedding day.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h2 data-end="861" data-start="799">Why We Love Photographing Weddings at Ashland Springs Inn</h2>
From the moment you walk through its grand front doors, the Ashland Springs Inn feels like stepping into a vintage romance novel. Originally opened in 1925, the hotel has been lovingly restored with a design that blends Old World sophistication with Art Deco flair. The natural light that pours through the tall windows, the ornate chandeliers, and the carefully curated vintage furnishings make every photo feel timeless.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Here&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s one of our favorite spots:

<h3 data-end="1998" data-start="1962">3. Perfect for Photography</h3>
As photographers, we love the soft golden light that filters through the windows and the elegant architectural details that frame every moment. The surrounding streets of Ashland provide even more backdrops&mdash;brick alleyways, charming storefronts, and mountain views are just a short walk away.
<h3 data-end="2331" data-start="2293">4. A Full Weekend Experience</h3>
Many couples choose to book out the Inn for a full wedding weekend experience. With elegant guest rooms, a full-service spa, and gourmet dining at Larks Restaurant, the Ashland Springs Inn makes it easy for guests to relax and celebrate in style. It&rsquo;s ideal for destination weddings where everyone can stay, play, and celebrate together in one place.
&nbsp;
<h2 data-end="2724" data-start="2684">Our Tip: Golden Hour in Lithia Park</h2>
