I am so glad you found your way here! My name is Steph (it's lovely to meet you!). I was born and raised overseas in Sri Lanka and moved to the beautiful PNW for college and decided to stay. The world and the people in it are too beautiful not to be art - so here we are creating art out of the beautiful moments you and your lives bring into being. Besides taking photos, I am a big fan of milk tea, hedgehogs, my kid and husband, sleeping in, summer, curry, and friends to share it with. I would love to hear more about you and your story and how I can help document some of your beautiful moments!

“100/10 — Stephanie Was Absolutely Incredible! We honestly cannot recommend Stephanie enough! From start to finish, she was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was kind, patient, professional, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—which is no small feat! Our photos turned out even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Stephanie captured not only the big, important moments, but also all of the little details, emotions, and candid moments that made our day so special. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day all over again, and we will treasure these memories forever. What really stood out to us was how genuinely invested Stephanie was in making sure we had an amazing experience. She was so easy to work with, incredibly creative, and had such a wonderful eye for capturing the moments that mattered most. If you are looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, professional, and truly passionate about what she does, BOOK STEPHANIE! You absolutely will not regret it. 100/10 doesn't even begin to do her justice. We are so incredibly grateful that Stephanie was the one who captured these memories for us!”

We believe wedding photography should feel effortless and stress-free, resulting in images that bring you back to how your day truly felt, not just how it looked.

“We had our wedding last September, and Viktoriia and Oleksander (u&p studio) were our photographers—they truly ended up being our favorite vendor from the entire experience. From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsible, attentive, and professional, always prioritizing our preferences and making sure every detail aligned with our vision. We absolutely love how our photos turned out. The quality is exceptional, with a refined, artistic touch in both composition and editing. Their use of professional cameras and lenses captured stunning details and genuine moments that we will cherish forever. What stood out most was their flexibility and dedication—whenever we had specific requests or ideas, they were more than happy to accommodate and bring them to life seamlessly. They created such a comfortable and positive atmosphere, which made the entire photography experience feel natural and enjoyable. We also received so many compliments from our guests about them. Viktoriia and Oleksander are not only talented photographers but also warm, kind, and easy to work with.

Hi, I’m Samantha! I’m a Washington-based photographer with a love for documenting people exactly as they are. For me, wedding photography is about so much more than taking pretty pictures. It’s about preserving the way your day actually felt — the nerves before the ceremony, the happy tears, the laughter, the people you love, and all of those little moments happening in between. My approach is relaxed, genuine, and centered around connection. I’ll give you direction when you need it, but I also leave plenty of room for you to simply be together and enjoy your day.

Lemonade Photography

I never meant to be a wedding photographer - but somehow, here I am. I started my career as a newspaper reporter, and left that to be a writer and photographer for a public university. 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.

“Highly recommend working with Lemonade Photography! Our wedding was 5 years ago and we still have fond memories of working with Jill. She was great at capturing the feel we wanted, is super friendly, and easy to work with. Her communication is excellent, and you will feel very taken care of.”

“Annaliesa (and mark) went above and beyond. They helped us set up and break down. Anna was determined to get things done to the point we had to actually make her stop and eat. She cleared out chair to make a dance floor. She even helped with our kids while we were running around and getting ready. Mark even made me a plate of food and made me sit down to eat in the middle of all the chaos. Which I really appreciated. They were on top of everything! And she got all of our pics back to us in less than 24 hours!! We love all our pics and are so thankful we have these memories captured.”

“Allison and her husband was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Allison was organized, energetic, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the photography planning process. On the day of our wedding, when the weather unexpectedly changed and threw off our timeline, Allison remained calm and professional, quickly adapting to the new circumstances and finding creative ways to capture beautiful photos around our venue. She was also a rockstar during the family photo portion of the day, efficiently directing everyone to ensure we got all the necessary shots.

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.

“From the moment we booked JL Thomas Photography, Jennifer was a dream to work with. Her communication was crystal clear, informative, fun, and friendly throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Jennifer not only prioritized our list of photos, but helped enforce our timeline and herd our guests when they didn't want to be where we needed them. She was a true stress reducer on my wedding day. The quality of her work is exceptional, exceeding our expectations in every way. In all honesty, I always get nervous when other people take pictures of me, thanks to different camera angles and a fluctuating body weight. I was terrified that I would see myself in photos of the most beautiful day of my life, and see myself as less than… but let me tell you, I have never felt more confident in sharing pictures than the ones we received. Jennifer’s tips on posing, feedback in the moment, and constant reassurance built my confidence, and it showed. The sneak peeks we received were absolutely beautiful, and we can’t wait to see the rest. The value of Jennifer's services is incredible - honestly, I think she should charge more, even though I’m glad her packages were within our budget. She felt like a true friend to us, and I cannot recommend her enough. I brag about how amazing she is every time I talk about our wedding - which is a lot. We are so glad we chose her, not only to capture our special day, but to be part of it as well.”

As an artist in the 21st century, I am overwhelmed by all that we cannot trust. The landscapes are edited, the portraits are airbrushed, and the legitimacy of what we see on social media is anyone's guess. That's why it is my passion and life pursuit to capture our most precious things in life - our loves, our families, our unrepeatable moments - in the most true-to-life and timeless way possible. I live for the unguarded moments that take our breath away. If you want to capture this time in your life in all its perfect authenticity, it's my job and my joy to capture the soul of these things for you to hold in time forever.

“We have used Elizabeth twice now and I would recommend her to anyone who needs a creative and professional photographer. She treats you like family and that is very important when trusting someone to capture priceless moments. Elizabeth is attentive, approachable, and easy to work with. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her and her work.”

Working with her was so easy and straightforward. She told us exactly what she needed from us, and she was always prompt with her communication. We loved working with Morgan for so many reasons, but her thoughtfulness, sincerity, and flexibility are particular memorable. Especially with all the chaos that comes with the wedding, it was refreshing to have Morgan be in charge of our photos, because she kept a cool demeanor and was easy going, but prescriptive. Beyond her professionalism and personality, my family, friends, and I are absolutely stunned by how beautiful our photos came out. The photos were creative while maintaining timeless elegance. Morgan's expertise with outdoor photography was perfect for our venue because we had a lot of natural sunlight come through our space since we had a lot of windows. I truly cannot express how thankful I am that Morgan was our photographer. I wish we could have another vent just to have her do more photography for us! Her turn around time was extremely reasonable as well!”

Kate and Josh Gansneder are a husband and wife wedding photography team based in Snohomish, WA. Together they have documented 650+ weddings across Seattle and Snohomish County over 15 years. Couples consistently describe working with them as feeling like having a trusted friend there, not a vendor - someone who knew what they needed before they did, made them feel calm on a day that could have been overwhelming, and cared about the whole experience not just the photographs. Camera-shy couples forget the camera exists. Families get through formals fast so everyone can get to the party.

“Kate and Josh’s story with us began long before they photographed our wedding. We first met them at a wedding when my now-husband and I weren’t even dating yet. Something about the way we looked at each other caught their attention. They were convinced we’d been together for years. They asked if we’d be willing to do a “fake” engagement shoot with them, and by the time the photos happened, we were officially dating. Fast forward four years, and when we got engaged, there was never a question of who we wanted to photograph our wedding. Kate and Josh were the only choice. And wow, did they deliver. Not only are they incredibly talented photographers with an amazing eye for capturing the perfect shot, but they are also some of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. They made us feel comfortable, celebrated, and completely ourselves throughout the entire process. The photos they captured are beyond anything we could have imagined. They preserved not just how our wedding looked, but how it felt: the joy, the emotion, and all the little moments in between. I cannot recommend Kate and Josh highly enough. Whether you’re looking for engagement photos, wedding photography, maternity photos, or any other milestone worth remembering, they will capture it beautifully and leave you absolutely awestruck.”

I work with wildly-in-love couples who want their wedding to feel like them: artful, offbeat, deeply intentional. I photograph elopements and micro-weddings with a storytelling lens- capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My work blends digital + 35mm film to preserve the honest, unposed, heart-full moments in all their textured, tear-filled, windswept beauty.

“Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Nathaniel was outstanding all around. We started with an engagement session. I wanted photos on the Vashon ferry and at my parents’ house. Nathaniel was willing to hang out with us for 5 hours - taking photos and getting to know us. The photos were outstanding - so sweet, classic, and didn’t feel posed. Then we had Nathaniel do our wedding. He was so helpful through the whole planning process - responsive, and so willing to jump into whatever we needed/wanted. The day of - he captured so much of our day - beyond my expectations. He wasn’t over the top or getting in the way - just blended into our day and produced photos that I absolutely adore. He was so kind to everyone and it really felt comfortable - I didn’t feel awkward even with so many photos. Nathaniel will be our go-to photographer going forward.”

“My husband and I absolutely loved our experience with KURO Creative House (fka Hereafter Film). Sharayah worked with me from start to finish with an unmatched level of kindness, support and professionalism. Our photographer on the team, Marisa, was equally fantastic and put us at ease with how on top of it she was on our big day. She went above and beyond, expertly handling all details, big and small, not to mention an overly eager mother of the bride. In the end, the photos turned out beautifully. I love the mix of editorial and candid style captured, with warmth felt throughout. These are memories I'll cherish forever. If you're looking for a talented, easy-to-work with photography and/or videography team, we cannot recommend KURO enough!!!”

My approach in photography is relaxed and lightly guided, leaving room for movement, connection, and images that feel nostalgic and timeless. I’m especially drawn to in-home family sessions — unhurried, familiar, and captured in the spaces where life is already growing. It would be my honor to document your sweet moments with family and loved ones!

“Absolutely love Annette and highly recommend her!! She did our engagement photos and they totally exceeded what I was expecting!!! They came out so stunning, and she captured every type of photo/pose I wanted! I am so so SO exited to see what she captures at our wedding this May, because i know they’re going to be just what i want!”
