I'm Jen, the founder of Vow House, a Seattle-based wedding photography studio dedicated to capturing love stories with an editorial, artful, and cinematic approach. With over a decade of experience behind the camera, I have built a body of work that blends moody, timeless imagery with authentic storytelling, tailored to each couple’s vision. My work is deeply influenced by atmosphere and environment, the rainy Seattle streets, mountain backdrops, candlelit interiors, and I thrive on translating these settings into images that feel both grand and intimate.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jen was the easiest and most wonderful vendor we worked with for our wedding. From start to finish, she was kind, patient, and incredibly professional. She managed to keep our timeline perfectly on track (which my entire family noted since our family is so gigantic!) while still making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. What stood out most was how accommodating she was; every little request I had. Her communication and turnaround time were impeccable; we received our photos so quickly, and every single one was stunning. Honestly, I’d hire her again in a heartbeat if I could. She deserves to charge more for the level of care, talent, and professionalism she brings. Jen went above and beyond in every way, and we’re so grateful to have had her capture our day so beautifully.

Congratulations on your engagement! Your wedding day will be one of the happiest days of your life, and we would love to be the company you trust to capture all those rare and beautiful moments on your special day. You want to be sure you hire an experienced photographer you can trust to not miss a single treasured moment. Thank you for taking the time to consider Rebecca Jane Photography, we know what a big decision it is choosing your photographer, and would be honored to be the company you trust with the memories you'll cherish forever.

Rebecca Jane Photography is, without question, a 12/10 in every possible way — Rebecca and Alex are simply the best photography team out there. Their photos are flawless, and honestly, there are so many incredible shots from our wedding that it's nearly impossible to pick favorites. Despite being insanely busy, their communication was outstanding, and they even worked in an engagement session around the holidays to accommodate us since we lived out of state — that kind of flexibility and care says everything about who they are. They're not just amazing photographers, they're even better people, and it showed in how beautifully they collaborated with all of our vendors, especially our videographer; Rebecca made a point several times to include shots she knew he'd want too, which is such a thoughtful, team-player mentality you don't always find. We also booked their photo booth and designed our own custom backdrop for it, and it ended up being a total hit — plus they shared all the photo booth pictures within our wedding gallery, which made it even more fun to relive. If you are searching for your wedding photography team, look no further — Rebecca and Alex are it, seriously. This team is talented, genuine, hardworking, and an absolute joy to have as part of your wedding day. Book them without a second thought! - Jess & Tristen Witt

Sound Originals did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! Ari and Ali were very professional and they understood how to set up good shots. I'm amazed by how good the lighting was in most of the photos, even in some rooms at the church that weren't as well lit. There are a few photos I wish had been full body rather than cut off at the ankles, oh well. At the end of the night when our coverage had ended before the wedding did, they waited till the end of a song before saying goodbye instead of interrupting, which we greatly appreciated.

To be perfectly honest, I love what I do. I'm damn good at it. I have dabbled in all sorts of jobs but I kept coming back to the camera. It feels really good to take the craft that I love so much and share it. The scope of my photography is wide but I specialize in weddings and elopements. I've been photographing weddings since 2005. I believe in vibing well with your photographer because let's be honest, your photographer will be up close and personal with you throughout your big day so it's important to choose someone whose energy you enjoy and mesh well with. Having a phone or zoom chat or meeting in person is a good move!

Autumn is an incredible photographer, and also just an all around great person. From our initial consult, to our wedding day, and after, she was always prompt in responding and friendly. The day of the wedding she made us, and everyone she photographed, feel so relaxed and at ease. The way she can capture light and color in an image is stunning. Guests commented after how awesome she was to interact with at the wedding. We we finally got our completed gallery, we were blown away by the images, and so happy that she was able to capture the day for us. She is an incredible photographer and an absolute rock star.

No matter who you are or where you came from, everyone has a story, and stories were meant to be told. I tell stories through photography. Weddings are incredibly meaningful and intimate. I’m not just someone with a camera who shows up and takes pictures. I believe in truly connecting and engaging with my clients so I can best understand how I can tell their story. With a bright, clean, and vibrant photography style, I help bring my client’s vision to life through beautiful photos that can be cherished forever.

Jonathan is an amazing photographer who clearly shows his dedication and talent, and puts great care into his work! We were very fortunate to have found him shortly after our engagement in October 2023. His photography style and bold colors aligned with what we were looking for. Not only were we drawn to his work, but we loved his fun personality, his professionalism, and his kindness of wanting to know us! Jonathan asked about our story, got to know us as individuals and as a couple, and made sure to tell our story through our photos. He even went overtime to help us with our timeline! He made us feel so comfortable in front of the lens and calmed us when we felt we were not on schedule on the day of the wedding. We love our engagement photos and wedding photos. Highly recommend Jonathan as your photographer! We can’t thank him enough!

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.

We had the privilege of working with Joe for multiple wedding events as we wanted a fall mountain top elopement & micro party followed by a larger party in the spring. As we started planning the different events, it was most important to us to have a photographer experienced in mountain top celebrations. We decided to work with Joe and could not have chosen better. Joe not only ran up a mountain with us but was involved in all the planning details including sharing a list of the best larch hikes, watching the weather and pinpointing exactly when golden hour would be hitting specific peaks. Even as the sun was setting and the light was fading, Joe found all the last bits of alpenglow to make us feel and look like we were the only ones standing on top of the world. He even carried heavy film cameras with him to capture the evening and we're so glad he did as they resulted in some of our favorite photos. The photos Joe took exceeded all our expectations and we have been excited and proud to share them with all our friends and family. Joe's skill doesn't stop on a mountain top. For our micro and macro party events, he brought an incredible sense of calm and serenity to all the wedding chaos around us. He was somehow everywhere, capturing incredible candid moments while still taking leadership to direct the posed shots we wanted. Joe captured the differences and highlighted the uniqueness in each of our events and yet each gallery we received feels cohesive and timeless. It's impossible to choose favorites and it's going to be very difficult to determine which photos to hang on our walls.

Julie Morgan from Sound & Sea Photography gave me the photo session of my dreams. Her expertise and attention to detail left me worry and anxiety free. Being from out of state, we were able to connect via phone and zoom. I gave her my vision and some details i wanted to incorporate and BOY DID SHE DELIVER!!!! She gave me plenty of site options to choose from, and all were exactly what i was looking for. We narrowed it down to distance and ease to locate since we were traveling with little ones. She considered everyone and everything. Her outlook and sense of direction really made the absolute difference. She took factors of the elements, snow, sun, shade, fog, light and gave us the most beautiful moments. Even capturing the little candid moments with the kids and my new husband were so heart warming. She saw what I didn't see. She positioned us in ways that were both flattering and fun! She had the best pricing but and the best accommodations. I would definitely recommend a thousand times!

I help couples plan a stress-free, epic elopement in the mountains while photographing their big day. I offer local resources and vendor recommendations for adventurous couples who want to ditch walking down the aisle and instead get hitched on a mountain

I am so glad that we chose Cherlyn to be our elopement photographer. Cherlyn has an amazing amount of mountain experience and local knowledge of Washington trails. She also has many outdoor technical skills, so she can join you for more adventurous activities - she joined us on a glacier climb! You can count on her to know the best spots to elope, best times to elope, and the current conditions at your planned elopement location as well as a number of other backup locations. Before the big day, she provided us with super thorough packing lists, created realistic timelines for the day which helped with our planning, and even helped us navigate uncertain weather forecasts and pick some backup locations the day before we were supposed to elope. Communication was always easy and thorough. We did a backpacking elopement with a few friends and I loved how Cherlyn fit right into our group. It felt so fun and natural to have her with us. She was constantly running around to get tons of different shots. She was working hard! Our photos turned out so beautiful and perfectly captured the essence of the trip. The lighting, the composition, the vibes of each photo - everything just feels right. My husband and I were so happy the entire trip with our friends and Cherlyn, and I’m so glad to have such wonderful photos to remind me of that experience.

Mahdi was voted our best vendor at our wedding! By us and by friends that got to know him. From our first phone call I was like, man this guy is cool and relaxed. I'm also pretty relaxed but obviously this can change on your wedding day, so having a laid back photographer was perfect for me. He arrived a bit early to set up and we chatted a bit and he went straight to work and my bridal party loved him right away. I would recommend Mahdi to anyone looking someone to perfectly capture their day or even just capture the moment. You will not find a nicer, more professional, or fun person to help you to remember the most important day of your life.

My approach is relaxed and natural so you can enjoy your day while I document it authentically.

A memory-keeper drawn to the in-between, my work is rooted in emotion, inspired by the quiet magic of everyday beauty. Whether we are in the mountains of the breathtaking Washington Cascades, the busy downtown Seattle city streets, or documenting life at home in the soft morning light, I’m here to preserve it with purpose.

If you're looking for an amazing wedding photographer, I can't recommend Erin enough! From our first meeting, her passion for capturing love stories was evident. Erin and her second photographer had a unique ability to blend into the background while still managing to capture every candid moment beautifully. On our big day, they arrived early, prepared, and full of creative ideas. Erin even came the day beforehand and was present for our rehearsal! She gave us lots of tips of where the best shots would be! The photos turned out stunning—each shot perfectly encapsulating the emotion and joy of the day. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they made sure to capture both the big moments and the small, intimate ones that we will cherish forever. What stood out the most was their professionalism and ability to make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. They directed us perfectly for posed shots while still allowing for natural, spontaneous moments. Overall, the Lovers Wild exceeded our expectations and delivered a breathtaking collection of memories that we will treasure for a lifetime. If you want someone who is not only talented but genuinely cares about telling your story, look no further!

Chelsea Terry Photography

  • Serves Bellevue, WA

Hey I'm Chelsea! I'm a wedding photographer based out of Seattle, Washington. I'm a super happy 35-year old who is head over heels in love with her job. Photography lets me combine all of my INFJ superpowers into one package, & it fills me with so much joy to share that with my clients. Beyond photography, I'm a total hippy at heart; I love all things nature, the moon, traveling, wildflowers, old creaky houses, thrift shopping, plants, hiking & horror movies.

Chelsea was our wedding photographer, and we loved working with her! We both typically feel a little awkward having our photos taken, but Chelsea really made us feel comfortable and at ease the entire time. She really is a calming presence, and is just super friendly and fun to hang out with. We were so impressed with how our wedding photos turned out, as were all of our friends and family--in addition to getting great portraits of us, she captured so many fun moments from the wedding. We'd recommend working with Chelsea in a heartbeat!
