Hey there, thanks for stopping in! I'm Rachel, I was raised in a little farm town in the southeast corner of Washington. My family moved over to the Seattle area just after grade school and I graduated Auburn Riverside High School in 2008. I met my partner and we have built an amazing life in the foothills of Mount Rainier.

Hailey Aitkins Photography

Fircrest, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,750

I got my first digital camera at 13 and spent the afternoons capturing flowers in our backyard; ever since it's been my dream to have my own photography business. Photography and writing were the two ways I expressed myself and were their own kind of therapy for me. And now, I use photography as a type of therapy for my clients. I believe there is a power in the vulnerability of being and feeling seen. So, photography is my tool to help others feel truly seen and celebrated. It's so important to make everyone feel this way, especially on their elopement/wedding day :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Hailey and I met at a retreat where I had the opportunity to get to know her working style + art + personality. What you need to know about Hailey, beyond her incredibly crafted images, is that she is a kind, gentle, and intuitive human. Hailey has a remarkable ability to listen + to discern the needs of those around her. She takes the time and has the care to get to know her subjects in a way that allows them to truly feel seen. I believe that Hailey uses this vulnerability superpower to create the beautiful images you see in her portfolio. When you hire Hailey you will be left in awe at not only the photographs you recieve but also the beautiful impression she leaves on you heart.

We are Amber French & Michael Sessa, a married photographer team. We love to cook, travel, skate and most of all our little pup Leo. We love working together, we've made it our full time job since 2009. We take portraits on land and by drone. We are now introducing videography to our packages! We would love to meet you

Amber and Mike are true gems. Not only are their photos just breathtaking but they are such awesome people. They made our day go so smoothly! They never pressured us to rush, they actually helped us enjoy every moment of the day and take our time so we didn’t feel stressed. They had such unique photo ideas and it made the day such an adventure. I feel like we can look at the pictures and be totally sent back to that day-they just captured every emotion so beautifully. They were so professional about every aspect of our day, but made us feel so comfortable at the same time. I usually feel awkward to have my picture taken but they made it fun! So thankful for them!

At Little Bit Photography, we are not just photographers; we are storytellers. With a keen eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to excellence, our team of seasoned photographers is dedicated to crafting a visual narrative that reflects the unique love story of each couple. From the tender glances exchanged during the ceremony to the joyous laughter on the dance floor, we aim to freeze these precious moments in time. We believe in creating an atmosphere of comfort and trust, allowing us to seamlessly blend into your celebration while capturing candid, genuine emotions.

I love Amber. She's very passionate about what she does & how it should be done. She is ever so patient too. We had about 42 family members at my wedding staying at the venue and she arrived with her assistant at 8:00am to start setting up and she left late in the evening. We could not have asked for a more dedicated photographer for our wedding. We definitely wanted more caught in the moment natural photography and she went above and beyond to catch some of the best moments of our big day. We have six children who were all grooms men & her patients/direction to get them to cooperate amazed us. My family was talking about her the next day after the wedding. She caught all the right moments at the right time even the kids doing crazy fun poses. She went above & beyond and even rerouted my officiant to remind him to let guests know not to take pictures or video tape our wedding (he told us he almost forgot) Thank Goodness for Amber & her team! Our ceremony was so romantic & intimate with no one snapping pictures but her. She was stopping in to talk to the maid of honor so not to stress me out, people who were pin pointed tasks she stopped to check in with. I am so grateful that she does everything with a smile because I'm sure we drove her crazy with my family & our anxiety! Haha She is thoughtful & thinks way ahead for every moment. She had us save a champagne bottle to use later for a sunset shoot which was so exciting and fun. Our first look was very special & full of tears from the groom. There are so many moments I will cherish because of Amber & her team. Amber- thank you so much for being a part of the best day of our life. You are honest, kind, generous, patient and so creative. You made our family laugh & you were so organized even with the chaos of such a big wedding. We appreciate you so much & how hard you worked. We are so excited to see the rest of our wedding pictures! The sneak peaks were AMAZING! A million thank you's!

Tacoma, WA
  • Photojournalistic style

I am a documentary family and wedding photographer located in the Seattle-Tacoma area. I accept commissions for family sessions, portraits, weddings, commercial and editorial work. I'm based in the Great Pacific Northwest, but please inquire about traveling, I love to do that too and do take commissions on the road when I can.

Jess is incredible. If you like her documentary style there is no reason not to hire her. From our first glance at her portfolio, we loved her magazine profile style shooting, our only fear being that because her sample shots were so good that when it came time for the wedding our photos wouldn't meet the bar. Jess shot our engagement & wedding photos and provided hundreds of high quality images that capture us as a couple and our guests personalities. She took the time to not only get to know what we hoped for but also who we were so she could really capture that. I didn't want to spend my wedding day posing for photos, but spending it with friends and family, and Jess understood that deeply. She was willing to ask for a shot when it made sense, but also melded into the wedding and took great shots capturing beautiful moments. Our wedding was split across three venues ranging from outdoor/harsh light, to cramped indoor room, and a massive banquet hall in each she did an excellent job and got images that truly feel like they could be printed in a glossy magazine. I feel so privileged to have had her be part of our wedding, in the end I find myself with similar sentiments to a reference I called, when asked how Jess ranked amongst their vendors, she said, "Can I rank her amongst my guests too? Because I think she was the best person at the entire wedding!"

Meet your favorite FUNtographer: Stephanie began her studies with the plan to become a pilot. However, as her love for photography grew, she decided to pursue her passion as a business full time, getting to weave her love of capturing moments artistically and want to share that passion with others into a successful business where her clients always come first. Building into her style, she found her travels and time living abroad in college have influenced her images and allowed her to challenge her personal style of capturing moments, and coupled with lots of in the field learning, she is able to catch true emotions in a timeless way.

Over the years, I've grown to become so in love with capturing stories and moments in still frames that you can look back on over and over again.

Carly & Kasey were the dream! I found them on Instagram and so glad I did. We did our engagement shoot with Carly and she did an awesome job of helping two people who have never taken professional pictures together before feel comfortable and confident. Communication throughout the planning process was excellent, very responsive and even sent out tips along the way that I found extremely helpful. The day of the wedding we all felt completely at ease. I never felt rushed or like we weren't getting enough photos. We received so many compliments from guests and even other vendors on how wonderful they were! Our sneak peek pictures of the wedding we received are amazing. I’ve looked at them a hundred times already and cannot get enough. The day is gone but I am so grateful to have such amazing pictures to look back on forever. We cannot wait for the rest!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Lacie is amazing! She did our engagement photos and our wedding. My husband and I don’t really take photos much, and I was concerned that I was going to be awkward in the photos. But Lacie made us feel so comfortable that we didn’t feel awkward at all. We had so much fun working with her and absolutely love the photos she took. She captured so many memories that happened in our wedding and I’m always going to cherish them. She also goes above and beyond and helped us get our reception moving; switched our timelines a little bit that fit with the mood. We love Lacie, her work, and will recommend her to anyone!!

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + intimate weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people in love have the wedding of their dreams in magical outdoor spaces. When you choose to elope, you’re choosing to get married free of society’s wedding day expectations. So go wild! Spend the entire day in your favorite place, with your favorite person. Wear a fancy outfit, or wear your hiking boots. Invite your dog instead of your mom’s second cousin. Share your first kiss under the stars instead of under an altar. In the great outdoors, you write the wedding rules. And I’m here to help make it an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
We would 100% recommend Nadia, Cassidy, and Venture Ever After for anyone looking to get married in the PNW. In finding a photographer we needed someone to help us figure out where to get started, what to look forward to, and to guide us along the way. We wanted something simple and easy, but even that came with some stressors. Nadia and Cassidy provided us with a detailed itinerary for the day and constant communication. On my elopement day we were so at ease, we were just sitting around waiting for the time to start like “what now?” Which is a great alternative to a stressful and chaotic wedding day. The photos were beautiful and everything we ever wanted. I appreciate being able to share those memories with the friends and family who could not come. Although Nadia and Cassidy were hired for photos and to officiate the ceremony, they helped with so much more. From flower shop recommendations, hotel stay suggestions, restaurants, even ceremony ideas.

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We decided to do a last minute baby moon in the Miami area. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a photoshoot. However, I was a bit worried about finding a photographer on short notice, especially between Christmas and New Years. I reached out to several photographers and Ledd Lens was the only company that promptly responded, replying to me within ten minutes, From the very start of our conversation, Andre was exceptionally professional, responsive, and approachable. He was very flexible with my last minute request and accommodating to my asks. I knew right away that he would be a fantastic choice. When the day came the weather did not cooperate and Andre was able to flex his schedule to a time that was not rainy, which was much appreciated. He assured me that this would be a positive experience regardless of the weather. And the photo shoot went fantastic! His ability to choreograph and capture a scene is unparalleled. You could feel the enthusiasm and passion he has for his work, and that is reflected in the final product. Andre did a great job of quickly editing and delivering the photos. We absolutely love how they turned out and cannot recommend Andre and Ledd Lens enough!

Like most children in the late 90's and early 00's, I grew up with a camera in my hand. I went through polaroids, video cameras, disposable cameras, waterproof cameras, and film cameras; all the cameras! I was so fascinated by photography and the ability to preserve moments. I'm an ENFP, 7w6, and extroverted-introvert who is not only thrilled but humbled to be a witness and historian to the significant moments in your life we are able to share together!

I was lucky enough to have moved into a neighborhood where Lindsay became my neighbor. I needed a photographer and asked the neighborhood Facebook. Lindsay came highly recommended, I reached out and within hours I had an appointment lined up. Communication was amazing, her personality was wonderful and the quality of her work was outstanding. I was overjoyed with the pictures she produced for my family and having digital access was an added bonus! Lindsay, now, comes recommended by me!

Hey there! I’m Emma. I’m a sassy, sarcastic redhead and also a complete sap. To keep it short, I value relationships and experiences above nothing else (although some would say I have a serious West Elm and pizza addiction as well). I love reminiscing and think some of the best nights involve sharing a bottle of wine with old friends and laughing about all of our past adventures (while planning new ones too!). When I think about it, I know I was meant to be a wedding photographer - because I admire your relationship, understand how important this journey to marriage is for you two and understand the importance of documenting it.

Emma and her associates were the absolute best from day one. She is so organized and truly understands how important all of the details are. She was on top of everything and took the most spectacular pictures. We will definitely be using her for all of our family pictures from here on out because she was so amazing I wouldn't want to use anyone else ever.

Jason is incredible. He is a talented photographer and storyteller, and a great business person to boot! He is exactly who you want your friends and family to interact with your wedding day. I would highly recommend him to any person looking to capture the essence of their wedding day and of their beloved family and friends. Regarding the business perspective: my partner and I planned our wedding from afar and from the start Jason was responsive and easy to work with. I admire that he didn’t pressure us on hurrying to book the way other photographers did and he made the time to connect with us. He was also able to process photos quickly and with high quality. Regarding the photos: we purchased his engagement and wedding day package and I could not be happier and think he was priced very competitively. My partner and I had previously had engagement photos done with another vendor and their quality was not even comparable to Jason’s. Because of Jason’s photo journalistic nature and our desire to avoid a lot of staged poses Jason built a beautiful story of us and our engagement and wedding day. His photos are striking, surprising, and beautiful. He captured heartfelt moments that I did not see during our wedding, too. Our friends and family are in love with the photos that we have shared with them and we are so honored to have had Jason capture our wedding day. I cannot wait to look at these photos for years to come and relive our wedding day!

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world. All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera when I was about 6. I documented everything. Since then, my memories, large and small, are organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back & revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't even remember without pictures. I enjoy life, and that’s why people call me the “happiest photographer.”

Thank you for being one of the sweetest people we ever met Nicole! Please come back soon!

She is truly there for you and your vision if you have one, but is also available to provide her own unique viewpoint, which gives you photos you didn't even know you wanted. It has been an absolute joy to have her do my wedding photos, engagements and to be a model for one of her styled shoots. I will continue to recommend her to everyone I know, and to hire her for my most special moments in life. Not to mention you get an incredible amount of stunning photos that are not overly edited- they are perfectly you. If you love story telling, intimate moments and the goofy in betweens, she is for you.

Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Travel is what first sparked my love of photography– I felt the need to document every gorgeous landscape in my sights across Europe, Asia, the South Pacific, and here in the States. Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

Choosing Marla as my wedding photographer was the best decision. She is amazing at what she does, responded to us quickly and provided the most amazing pictures I will cherish forever. She helped us have a smooth wedding day and made sure we both felt our best on our special day.

Kirstin joined in about two years ago, and has quickly become just as skilled in weddings. We have shot over 200 weddings and enjoy every minute of every one. We love to get to know our couples to ensure we add that personal touch to weddings, rather than just capturing the generic shots. We strive to focus on your wants and needs to create your dream gallery on such an important day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We initially hired Zach Beazer to take our engagement photos. We loved the photos and our interaction with him so much, that we hired him to be our wedding photographer. Then, we hired him again to two more times for photo shoots. We love every single photo that we receive from Zach. We can see the intentionality, thoughtfulness, and professionalism in every photo. We have printed out, framed, and hung on our walls many of the photos he has taken of us. It's clear that Zach takes his photography seriously, and he also takes his relationships seriously. Every time we see him, he'll ask about things that we shared with him from the previous photo shoot. We feel very comfortable around him as he has become both a photographer and friend to us. If you are looking for a very professional photographer who is also friendly and fun, Zach Beazer is the photographer for you. If you are more shy and aren't very creative when it comes to poses, Zach Beazer is the photographer for you! He has both fun and practical ways of getting certain facial expressions and poses out of you without making you feel uncomfortable. If you want a photographer who doesn't stick out like a sore thumb at your events, Zach Beazer is the photographer for you. There are so many of our wedding photos that impressed me and my wife and that made us go, "How did Zach get that shot? I didn't even notice him there!" If you want both quality and cost-effectiveness, Zach Beazer is the photographer for you. I've had so many conversations with couples who either regretted paying too much for a photographer that didn't even take good photos or regretted not paying more for a good photographer. With Zach, I was so happy we got such great photos at a reasonable cost. Overall, Zach Beazer is your ideal photographer. He'll be our photographer for life! We are so thankful to God to have blessed us with Zach in our lives as our photographer and friend!

There are many reasons couples choose not to have a “traditional” wedding, and the beauty is that you can make it anything you want it to be – and that’s also why I care so deeply about making sure every couple I work with knows that their day is important, beautiful, and deserves to be captured so you can look back on every detail. Hi! My name is Anna– I am an elopement and wedding photographer helping adventurous couples say “I do” on their own terms from coast to coast.

I spent MONTHS speaking to maybe 30 different photographers, and I was blown away by Anna and Trevor from the start. We had van life in common at the time, I knew they were my people. The photos in their galleries were so crisp, colorful, and candid -- exactly what we wanted. Anna took the time to have multiple Zoom calls with us to ensure we were comfortable before signing our contract. The care the team takes in getting you ready for your big day is incredible, a questionnaire, a planning guide, and all the location scouting?! They literally hiked our hike the day before our elopement to scope the best spots and make sure it was everything we wanted! Their patience with us while working out our timeline was so generous and kind (we were not easy in this regard). Anna even helped me with other vendors referrals (hair/makeup, videographer, florals, attire, footwear, you name it). Even a packing checklist! And this is all BEFORE the big day! Day-of they were early, professional, kind, and so cool...we hope to hang out soon as friends, they're those kind of people. They made us feel SO comfortable on such an intimate day, and it went off perfectly, we couldn't have gotten luckier. THE PHOTOS! They speak for themselves, and these are just the sneak peeks, which we received in I think 36 hours?! If you go with any other photography team you're crazy. Book this duo.

My clients are a little different, as they tend to stray away from the norm and make their own rules. They love the details, but care more so about making memories on the first day of their marriage. The wedding day timeline is full of things important to them, not what society says they should have. Their love is a celebration of emotional connections with friends and family, wiping away tears when the moment gets the best of them, and dancing their asses off with no care as to who sees. So, if you connect with all this, then I am definitely your kind of photographer. LOVE = LOVE, all are welcome here!

Herself and her second photographer she brought for our wedding day knocked it out of the park. Our wedding was large with lots of family and friends but they managed to somehow be everywhere.

Celebrating the wholeness of life and the perfection of love I truly ask you to "stay gold"! My beautiful clients are couples of all genders, orientation, and identities who have found each other and want this moment in time captured in heirloom quality. We leave the churches and the hotels and venture into wild world, up the mountains, to the islands, into the forests, and out into the deserts. Stay Gold Tyler delivers stunning portraits, family heirloom formals, and b-roll candids that will have you laughing and "aww"ing for a lifetime. Tyler splits time between South Florida, New York City, and Seattle.

Tyler was amazing to work with! He captured every beautiful moment of our wedding day and the photos are such wonderful reminders of one of the very happiest days of our lives. He spent thoughtful time with us before our big day to get to know us and to make sure that we got the shots we were hoping for. Not only did we have a ton of fun with Tyler, but he took photos that are incredible and captured so many special moments. All of our guests loved him too – so much so that two of our friends couldn’t wait to hire him for their own wedding a year later!

Hello friends! A little about me: I honestly LOVE weddings and elopements. I believe in creating a relaxed and fun environment that adds value to your wedding day, and not taking away from the experience. What that means is I mix action based posing that creates real memories and fun moments, with a photojournalistic approach. This means more time in the moment and enjoying your day and less time saying "Cheese!" I am for the couples who love to laugh, want to have fun and are looking for a relaxed and organized professional for their day.

I cannot say enough about Jessica. She’s been our preferred photographer at our elopement venue for 3 years and she is a dream to work with.

California native, PNW resident, coffee drinker, dog scritcher, friend, forward-thinker, designer. I hate having my photo taken (go figure), my dog Boone makes me laugh every day, and I thrive off of honest, intentional conversations. I’ve worked as a photographer for over 8 years and I know that half the job is connecting with people and offering them an experience, not just a gallery. I believe you have to feel comfortable with the person behind the camera before you can let go and fully be yourself in front of it.

My husband and I found Becky G on yelp and after reviewing her website and photographs, we reached out to her and we are so happy we did! Becky is not only an incredible photographer but also very professional and communicates well with her clients. She had us fill out a questionnaire to ensure she captured all of the moments we were most excited about. On the day of the wedding, her and her assistant took photos of the wedding parties, the families, guest, dancing and of course myself and my husband. After the wedding, she sent us sneak peaks and we received all the photos in a timely manner. We were so happy with how they turned out. We will definitely be using Becky’s services again in the future!

Hey new friends! We’re Sam + Kyle elopement photographers splitting our time between the PNW and the SW in our RV. It takes a whole lot of badassery to make the decision to elope and we are very into that kind of energy. We believe in making memories and images that capture all of the big feelings, and the in-between moments that you want to relive over and over again. You know, the kind of photos that hang on your wall and make ya smile real big because you remember exactly how you felt in that moment. We are so glad that you’re here and can’t wait to run wild with you.

I can't say enough good things about Kyle and Sam. My wife, who is trans, and I really wanted to find someone who would be sensitive and respectful of our unique relationship and our non unique wedding(I'm Native American and Irish and so we had those elements in our wedding). Hit the jackpot! While they let us know up front that they hadn't worked with a trans couple before they also let us know that they firmly believe that love is love and they just want to capture our happiness and our day for us. They made my wife feel comfortable which is saying a lot since she had just come out as trans a couple months ago and she absolutely hated photos. They make a great team with Sam doing most of the communication and Kyle taking the lead on the photos(they both shot photos). Sam is a bundle of energy that has one focus-making things go smoothly and making sure you're happy. Kyle has an artistic point of view that clearly comes across in their finished products of being superb. They were great at dealing with last minute snafu's and helping me navigate everything. Their photos are absolutely brilliant and we could not be more happy with them. In fact, we are planning on hiring them again for our one year anniversary when we invite our family and friends since we didn't have a big wedding due to covid. While some people will be a bit concerned about their price, they absolutely are worth every single penny. Their professionalism, their personalities, and their work simply can't be matched. Thank you Sam and Kyle!

Irene of IJ Photos is a highly-skilled and respected photographer, but also one of the kindest, most sincere people you will ever meet in your life. It is that focus on people and their relationships that allows her couples to just relax and enjoy themselves knowing that Irene has all the shots covered. And it's those relaxed moments where the authentic relationship of a couple can shine through. Knowing that you're going to get great photos is certainly reason enough to hire Irene. But a big bonus is that you have her by your side while you're planning your wedding. She will often meet with couples at their venue - even if she's been there many times - to show them different spots and talk about lighting and such. As a colleague in the wedding industry, I respect her so much that I hired her to take our family photos last year.

After 10 years and over 200 weddings, I know how to fold into a large group of people, how to be there and make it feel like I'm not. I've been documenting weddings for nearly a decade and I love it even more now than when I started. My work is candid, emotional, and comfortable. I love to infuse editorial and documentary moments into my galleries, but mostly I just love to be able to photograph moments as they unfold.

It’s been a year since our wedding and I still look at the photos Melissa captured of us on a daily basis. When we were going through the painstaking process of planning and budgeting for our wedding, photos were at the top of my list in terms of their importance. Enter Melissa—we met a year and a half before our wedding day when she took our engagement photos and it was basically love at first sight. We felt so incredibly comfortable with her almost immediately and by the end of our session, we were bantering and joking around like old friends. Flash forward to our wedding day—not only did Melissa take gorgeous photos of our ceremony, first look, reception, etc, but she was a support system and that is something that is truly invaluable on one of the biggest days of your life. I can’t recommend her more.

***I specialize in small events! Elopements and Micro Weddings. Hi Friends! I'm Alexandria! I'm a bubbly, dog lover who loves exploring and experiencing new things, so I'm so lucky to have found my home in Washington. I'm obsessed with tall trees, could stare at the waves crashing against the beach for hours, and love the jaw-dropping feeling I get when I see something truly just majestic in the mountains.

Awarded Best of Zola
I honestly cannot speak more highly of Alexandria. I was a 2020 bride and when we decided to cancel our wedding due to COVID, we were almost completely heartbroken. We booked with Alexandria back in 2018, shortly after we got engaged (she was our first choice after working with her for a styled shoot in Chicago, even after she relocated to WA -- no one else could compete with her, believe me, I looked HARD!). We wanted to keep our original date, but had no idea how to get married and still preserve any sort of sentiment. I called Alexandria to break the news that we'd be canceling our wedding of 300 people and shared the heartbreak and disappointment and defeat I felt. She was beyond what I needed at that time and quickly went from photographer to wedding planner and helped us reimagine a new, non-traditional, equally beautiful, equally sentimental wedding. She stuck with us through the entire planning process (we had to change venues a couple times) and she was incredibly thoughtful and patient throughout. The day of the wedding, she was like part of our family (my mom said she would happily adopt her and my dad sang her praises -- everyone was SO impressed with her). She was incredibly professional, organized, selfless, and made an effort to learn the names of our 20 guests. She helped us incorporate everything we wanted from our big wedding into this smaller, more intimate ceremony (including finding a gorgeous nearby park for us to take some photos). She captured EVERY moment, emotion, smile, tear, laugh (literally every single one -- I don't know how she does it). I usually hate my pictures, but there were so many to choose from and we all still gush over our wedding photos. Alexandria has a very unique way about her, where she carries herself so professionally, but can make you feel like you've known each other for years at the same time. She has such an ease about her, yet she is very intentional about what she does. She is SO insanely talented, and is as good a person as she is a photographer. She is a unicorn; we would not have been able to have half the wedding we did without her. Like I said in the beginning, I cannot say enough about her, but I'll leave you with this: this is one easy decision you'll never regret if you book her. Wishing you all the best, safe, and happy wedding planning!

I specialize in 35mm and medium format film photography, but I also offer digital photography and am typically shooting both on a wedding day. My inspiration comes from organic moments, perfectly imperfect details, finding beauty in simplicity, and natural, modern and creative environments. I find that I thrive most when I get to work with couples who are so involved in the moment, they don’t care much about a wrinkle in their dress or a misplaced hair.

Once we got Marci on board, I felt immediately at ease about the wedding. I knew that, no matter what happened, no matter what details about the day wouldn't go perfectly, we would have great photos and the end of it all. She offered so much of herself before the actual date to check in with us and make sure we could talk about anything we wanted on the day. I love how everything she does feels intimate, natural, and captures the 2 people just as they are. I highly recommend booking Mars Takes Photos for your special day.

I believe that everyone is beautiful. Somewhere deep within you, there is a fire of light and joy. Not everyone’s light shines in the same way or with the same strength or even all the time. Stuff changes. People are different, but deep down, everyone is connected to the little bit of themselves that is truly theirs. I’m also all about being adventurous. That could mean we’re going to go climb a mountain or it might mean we’re going to try the really spicy chai tea. By experiencing life in the process of making photos, you’re going to be even more connected to the images because they will have stories that go along with them.

What can I say about working with Joe? He is an absolute delight to work with. He's charming and charismatic and knows how to get the absolute best out of his subjects and photos. We hired Joe as the photographer for our wedding and man did he deliver. Approximately a month after our wedding, he sent us all 1,041 photos from the day in an adorable little box containing a USB with all the photos, as well as some hand-selected prints from him, plus a little bonus gift from him that I won't ruin for any future clients. My wife and I spent the evening going through every single one of them. Every single one was absolutely stunning and amazing in its own way. Going through them really made us relive the day, along with every emotion that came with it. Not to mention that he photographed our wedding on a very rainy day. He never complained, never even mentioned the weather, and his willingness to put up with whatever the day threw at him, I believe, speaks volumes to his character and his commitment to his craft. Joe is an astounding photographer and a wonderful person to work with. I cannot recommend him enough for whatever you may need him for.

I love to travel- who doesn’t though? A good beach, delicious taco or anything with guac on top is usually my go to, and an icy cold drink sums up a top list vacation spot for me.

I’ll start with the most important thing: my husband hates taking pictures and hates hiring photographers. When we had our first engagement shoot with Allie, about 3 years ago, his mind was changed. Allie has a great personality, very upbeat, friendly, and professional. She did a great job posing us; it really doesn’t even look like we’re posing. Our wedding was the same and she brought her upbeat energy, got everyone (yes my big whole family) to look into the camera when taking family photos, delivered amazing portraits, and was a fly on the wall when things were happening. She is always watching the crowds for exciting things to happen and we saw this over and over again in our gallery. And— we’ve had several shoots with her since then, and we don’t plan to look for anyone else.

Almost 10 years into my second career, I was laid off - so I turned some pretty sour lemons into Lemonade Photography. I'm a lifelong Northwesterner, a mom to two boys, a nature lover, a proud geek and quite possibly the biggest Harry Potter fan you'll ever meet (don't challenge me to a Potter trivia contest; you WILL lose). I love to laugh, and I love to make my clients laugh along with me.

We have been an Interactive Wedding DJ/MC at over 1500 weddings, and we Highly recommend Jill @ Lemonade Photography! If you are looking for someone who will capture beautiful memories on camera Jill is amazing. We always love her professionalism & wonderful customer service. Photography is an Art and Jill @ Lemonade Photography has got it down. It takes more than a “point & shoot” to be a photographer, it takes time, an artistic eye and raw talent! Not only does Jill encompass these qualities, she also has a great sense of what a person is really looking for through the eye of a lens. She takes her time to find …just the right shot. If you are looking for a photographer that “listens” to what you want, Jill is the one. Not only is she always professional in her work and technique, she is friendly too. Her talent for catching those perfect moments shows in each and every picture!! She captures the most perfect pictures! I can’t say enough good things about Jill. She makes people feel very comfortable right away and is very professional. She does amazing work and knows how to capture the essence of a relationship in one little picture. Jill is also very easy to get along with, patient, and very professional. We recommend her to everyone! Scott & Jina Fijolek AskDJScott.com

Hi, I'm Amanda! I’m located on Bainbridge Island, WA. I dig moody vibes, organic pops of color, and using nature as my backdrop. Shooting outdoors is where my true passion lies, and my #1 goal is to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Elopements are an incredible way to fuse together everything you love about doing life with your person and celebrate your relationship in a genuine, meaningful way. They allow you to put your marriage first. To release any pressure or judgment and just be you, together. Not only are you committing your life to someone you love more than anything, but you’re starting the adventure of a lifetime with an adventure of a lifetime. And because I’ll be there to help you craft the whole thing, and document it as it unfolds, you can relive your best day ever; over and over, forever.

I shot my first elopement wedding film with Jayne and she was such a joy to work with! Not only was she helpful in making sure I could get the shots I need, but she definitely had a rapport with the couple that really put them at ease. The other thing that really stood out was how thoughtful and detailed she was. She had done so much scouting, research, and leg work that the day just flowed really well and everything was just easy! Would highly recommend working with Jayne!

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Ashley is seriously one of the best vendors I've ever worked with. Her photos are wonderful and fit the sweet, romantic style with a hint of vintage. But not only is her work great, she's so easy to work with. She makes sure to be there for every step of the process and is so easy to talk to. My husband and I are not the most photogenic but she makes the whole process simple and fun. I can't recommend her enough!

Lynnsey is the best of the best when it comes to wedding/elopement photography and a gem of a human!! Hire her...like yesterday!! I've known her for a while as I am in the wedding industry as well and have always loved her photos and how she can make anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera! We knew going into the day we'd be happy with whatever she gave us! However her (and all our vendors) impressed us most with how they showed up for us when our intimate wedding in Scotland had to be canceled 4 days before we were supposed to leave, due to Covid 19. We were obviously heartbroken but we were still able to get married around home, on our original date, in the PNW. We had a blast romping around with her and our videographer! Have you hired her yet?! :P Thank you Lynnsey!! We love you, we love our photos!

I’m Emily, and I’m a photographer who loves the outdoors, bright colors, and creating photos that capture your authentic self. My style is colorful and candid, almost photojournalistic at times. I’ll capture the standard portraits for your extended family to put on their fridge, of course, but I also try to create photos that show what it really felt like to be there – the bright smiles, the tears, the dancing.

Emily was phenomenal to work with - she is friendly, thoughtful, and talented! She took time to chat with us in advance of the day to make sure that her approach to photography was exactly what we were looking for and to ensure she captured some of the key shots we really wanted. Emily's work reflects the authenticity of the beauty of our wedding without a bunch of overediting I've seen from other photographers. I would highly recommend her for capturing a family and joy focused album, especially if you have an outdoor component to your wedding!

Welcome to Taira Marie Photography, we are excited that you have found us! Take your time browsing around to learn a little bit about us and our style. We are here for you if you have any questions and are looking forward to connecting with you!

Deciding on a wedding photographer is not an easy task because you know these are once-in-a-lifetime memories to be captured, but choosing and working with Taira Marie Photography was nothing short of extraordinary. We discovered their Instagram through our Wedding venue, as they had worked together on some events and photoshoots, and I was immediately drawn to the photography style. It was completely serendipitous to find out that they had our wedding date available and hit it off with their team on our first meeting. Our package came with an engagement shoot, which gave us an opportunity to really get comfortable in front of the cameras, they turned out lovely and we realized how truly passionate Taira is about her job. The photography team worked with us to hit every "shot list" photo we wanted to get on our big day and captured the most beautiful details. Taira and Joey felt like family at our wedding and have been so good to us with their communication and professionalism. Our wedding album just arrived (hand-delivered too!) and it's amazing, I'll never forget how we felt that day because it's so wonderfully and thoroughly portrayed with their photography.

We're Natasha and Brian! A husband and wife, PNW elopement photographer duo. When we're not getting slimed by our own slobbery dog Fern, or helping you plan your dream wedding day, you can probably find us alpine lake lounging, making a weird new kimchi flavor, or deep on the forestry roads in our (always dirty) Tacoma blasting some indie alt or rap (there's rarely an in between lol). We're your photographers, die-hard dog petters, and donut-eaters that are all about playful banter, real conversations, and no icky small talk.

For me and my now-husband Ryan, the importance of finding an excellent wedding photographer was unparalleled. We discovered Natasha and immediately were drawn to the nostalgic, film quality to her work. We love the way she captures moments that feel both so real and so dreamy at the same time. It’s an art! Additionally, correspondence with Natasha was always a pleasure. She was speedy in her responses, always answered any questions, and just extremely down-to-earth and easy going. Our introduction to working with Natasha came from our winter engagement session. We chose to do the shoot at home and around our neighborhood in Seattle. Though we were still nervous in front of the camera, Natasha chatted with us and helped us open up. The photos from this December day were cozy, comfortable, and felt completely like us! And finally the Big Day arrived! Natasha and Brian photographed our July 2023 wedding and the results were just perfect - more lovely than we could have dreamed. On top of that, we loved getting to hang out with them! They made our wedding day feel calmer, more relaxed, and allowed us to just be us. We highly recommend Natasha and Brian for all your engagement and wedding photography needs. They’re the best!

I want to capture all your in-between moments, those are my favorite, the way you guys sneak looks and steal kisses. I don’t want to be just another person who shows up and waves a black box in your face. I want your photos to represent your effortless connection, the closeness with your person, and all the other things that make you guys YOU! I am inspired by your love and I want to capture YOUR raw and real story. I want to tell it through my photos. And the fact that no else has been in my shoes, I see the world through eyes that no one else has. That’s what makes me different. Also NO TRAVEL FEE anywhere in the states!!

We got married in June 2022, and even now looking at our photos and video has us in disbelief at how Ruzin beautifully captured our special day. It’s like we’re viewing someone else’s wedding, but it’s actually ours! Throughout wedding planning, she went above and beyond for us and we can’t truly express our gratitude. She takes the time to get personal and get to know you well and understand your vision to help take it to the next level. We’ve seen many wedding photos, but hands down ours were the best. Choosing her was the best decision we made!
