We’re Alexis + Katrina—married, full of dad jokes, and absolutely obsessed with storytelling. We met online, bonded over photography, and turned that shared love into a life and business centered on connection and creativity. On wedding days, we bring calm energy, big laughs, and our full hearts. We’re all about capturing moments that feel like you—from wild dance floor joy to quiet in-between magic. When we’re not behind the camera, we’re wrangling our three dogs, gaming, or chasing sunsets in the PNW.

AK Photography was awesome at communicating and adjusting their style to explain things to us in a way that made perfect sense. Their work is a gorgeous, deep aesthetic that was so perfect for capturing our special day. Oh my gosh, they were amazing - I had some vendors who fell through, and they were not only incredible at directing the photographs, but they also helped so much to just keep the wedding moving along smoothly. My husband and I not only love their work, but we're so thankful to have had AK Photography be a part of our wedding day.

Our photographer name was Hunter, and he was absolutely amazing. I booked through original weddings because my photographer I originally had had never gotten back to me, and was three weeks to spare. This company made me feel like everything was going to be perfect, and that my wedding was going to be captured in the most incredible way! Hunter had made us feel so comfortable and he made our photos turn out to be more than I could ever dream of! I would recommend them 1 million times over again if I could, and if I could have booked them originally in the first place I would have! Our photo turnaround time was about two weeks and the pictures were more than I could ever imagine!!

Our experience with JL Thomas Photography was incredible. We are so grateful to have booked with Jen. She answered all of our questions and more. With the package we booked for our day, we did the pre wedding shoot, which we used for our save the date invites. Jen was very easy to work with, kind, fun, and non-judgmental. We were very inexperienced with posing as a couple, Jen was very helpful and guided us through the shoot. For the wedding day, she was on time and kept communication going with a zoom meeting a week or two before the wedding and throughout the wedding day. Everyone that met Jen at our wedding complimented, "man, your photographer is so nice!" and we agree! She gave us sneak peek photos of our day very quickly and already we were so impressed! When we got the full photo package, we were in awe! There are so many great moments documented with friends and family. Our couple shots were so well done, and we loved her editing style. I can't brag enough about how we loved our photographer and our photos.

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.

We hired Jonathan for wedding photography, and he was easy to work with and very organized. He visited and researched the venue (Seattle Aquarium) and lighting on his own (no flash by the fish, dark interior), and proactively setup meetings and reminders. We had never hired a photographer for a large event before, and Jonathan explained what shots would work best and timing. Jonathan worked with an associate photographer to shoot the wedding, which went very smoothly, and then Jonathan did the final editing. The photos turned out great and we received them a few weeks after the wedding.

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.

The thing I hear most from my couples? “You made us feel so comfortable.” Most people don’t love being in front of the camera (totally normal), but that’s where I come in—to help you feel like the best version of yourself while making memories you’ll actually want to hang on your walls. Your wedding photographer is with you through the quiet moments and the chaos, so it matters who you have by your side. With me, you get someone who knows how to read the room, roll with whatever the day brings, and add calm, joy, and confidence to it all.

From start to finish, she brought such professionalism, creativity, and heart to our wedding at The Corson Building. Jenn has a gift for finding beauty in the smallest details. She took the most subtle elements of our day and made them feel magnificent and deeply significant. The flatlay she created was stunning — a rich, thoughtful collection of pieces she curated and styled with such intention. She arrived early to ensure nothing felt rushed, and throughout the day we had so much fun anticipating moments together — seamlessly aligning to capture them with ease and precision. Her calm energy and artistic eye made the entire experience effortless and memorable. I can’t recommend Jenn enough. She doesn’t just take photos — she tells a story, one filled with emotion, beauty, and meaning.

Without all these labels?

I’ve worked with Ally numerous times. She is so supportive & such a good hype woman. Not only does she go above and beyond to make her client experience one to remember, but she really cares about the experience as a whole. Whether she’s photographing me or I’m assisting her at a wedding-I absolutely adore her bright spirit and attention to detail. Can’t wait to work with her more in the future!

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.

Becky is AMAZING! I first met her in 2016, when she photographed my college graduation pictures. In 2018 - a little over a year into dating Ryan - I asked her to do our holiday pictures. She made Ryan feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera for the first time! Over the years, Becky has documented our love and has become a very close part of our lives as a couple. She was there for our engagement pictures in 2022 and we couldn’t imagine our wedding day being documented by anyone else. A month before our wedding, we did private vows under Mount Rainier. Just me, Ryan, Becky and the mountain. Ryan and I wanted it to be as private as possible. Becky was so great at giving us privacy during the reading of our vows while still getting BEAUTIFUL and intimate pictures of it. Having her at our wedding was truly having a friend there who just happens to take stunning pictures. We are so grateful for the memories she has preserved over the years and hope she will be there for future memories! We also love that she supports Black-led and Black-supporting organizations by donating from her earnings for every shoot!
