Elbridge Willis Moore (June 5, 1857 – June 10, 1938) was an American painter, photographer, and gallery owner.[1][2][3]
Moore was born in Gardiner, Maine.[4] He was the younger brother of Otis Merrill Moore, proprietor of the Hoquiam Record and Daily Washingtonian. He came to Hoquiam, Washington in early 1918.[2][3] He worked at Frank G. Abell's photography firm before eventually taking it over when Abell moved on. The Portland Art Museum has his photograph of Susan Whalley Allison in their collection.[5] He was also a captain.[6]
In 1897, Moore was contracted to paint a portrait of Oregon governor William Paine Lord to hang in the Oregon State Capitol in Salem.[7] He was also contracted to paint portraits of governors Frank W. Benson and Jay Bowerman,[8] as well as former governor Ben W. Olcott.[9] In addition to these portraits, he also painted a portrait of Samuel Benn, a pioneer of Aberdeen, Washington,[3] and made a posthumous painting of Seattle newspaper editor Col. Alden J. Blethen.[10]

Also a photographer, Moore took a photograph of John C. Robertson.[citation needed] He worked for Frank G. Abell before eventually taking over his photographic studio.[11][12]
He died in Napa, California.[13]
