I’m Luke, a Seattle wedding photographer with a simple mantra: Guest First. Photographer Second. On your wedding day, I’m part of the celebration, prioritizing your experience and capturing the moments that truly matter. We’ll make time for great portraits, but my main goal is to document your day as it unfolds—no endless posing or pulling you away from the fun. From the laughs and tears to the joy, heart, and love, I’ll capture it all to make your day unforgettable.

We are forever grateful for Bear Beau Photography capturing not only our wedding day but our welcome party and engagement photos. Luke was so warm and welcoming and was definitely a favorite among our guests as well. He was never intrusive but always there to capture the moments. We booked him for our welcome party as well and we are so happy he was able to make it work. It's another part of the weekend we will get to cherish with professional photos now. One other thing we loved about Luke was his communication. He was always prompt and organized, whether talking with us or our wedding planner -- not something to overlook when you are dealing with so many vendors!

We had an incredible experience with Allison Lauryn Photography for our wedding! Allison’s professionalism stood out from the start—she clearly knows what she’s doing. I’ve been in weddings where posed photos take hours, but Allison was so efficient and got every shot we wanted in a short amount of time without feeling rushed. The candid photos from the reception are amazing; seeing all the interactions of our guests was such a gift since the day itself was a whirlwind for us. She even accommodated a last-minute request just a week before the wedding to add her photo booth option, which was a huge hit with everyone! Allison communicated clearly, laid out a timeline for photo delivery, and delivered exactly as promised. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Allison Lauryn Photography to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer

Wedding planning is sooooo stressful, and Lacie and her team made the photography part such a breeze!!! I told my fiance that I was nervous about choosing a photographer because our pictures would last forever, but with Lacie all of that anxiety was gone!! I love how she doesn’t have just one specific style, but she takes the kind of pictures that YOU want. She was great at helping my husband and I with poses and she was even more amazing helping us at our wedding!! If I had to do it all over again I would still pick her to shoot our wedding. She did amazing!!!

Their professionalism, creativity, and passion for photography truly shine through in every shot. On the big day, Jennifer was a calming presence, she captured every moment without being intrusive. She has an incredible talent but knowing how to make you feel comfortable, beautiful and not camera shy. I am obsessed with our photos and I am an awe, the attention to detail is evident; from the candid shots of our guests enjoying themselves to the stunning portraits of us as a couple. The way Jennifer captured the emotion and joy of our wedding day is something we will cherish forever. The turn around was just as promised, she delivered our photos about 7 weeks after our wedding and gave us a sneak peak a couple days after the wedding.

I have been fortunate to photograph 200+ weddings in my PNW home, to ruins in Scotland, cityscapes in Vietnam, to the beaches of Maui, and beyond! I live in Portland, Oregon with my two dogs and three cats | 🏳️‍🌈🦖⛰️✈️📸⚽🫶🏼🌈🌲🦕🏝 Fun Fact: I was born on Leap Year Day so I'm 9 years old 🥳!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used many photographers in the past but none came close to the level of expertise that Leah possesses. Over the years, I've done business headshots with her, family photos, and most recently my wedding. Since I have used Leah's services for other things before, I knew what to expect as far as photo-quality goes; the real testimonial comes from how she handled the wedding. Shooting a wedding in another country with a chaotic family is no easy task, even I wouldn't wish it upon myself, but Leah truly knocked it out of the park: she checked in before the event day to go over the schedule, showed up early, got all of the extra shots that I requested, directed people, and just really took charge of the experience. Having her as my wedding photographer was literally one of the only non-stressful decisions I made for that event lol. The photos turned out beautifully, I really can't imagine having anyone else capture one of the most important events of my life. I recommend her wholeheartedly!!

  • Serves Kelso, WA

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + adventure weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people 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
When we began looking for a photographer for our micro-wedding, we gravitated towards Nadia’s images over and over again. Not only did they capture raw, intimate moments between couples and families, but they elevated those moments in elegant and natural landscapes of the PNW; everything we wanted. We reached out and set up a consultation call immediately. We were initially nervous and felt very unprepared to speak with photographers because we had zero ideas for what our special day would look like, but after our call with Nadia we were confident that Venture Ever After was the right choice for us. She was so knowledgeable and did a TON of legwork planning our timeline to best capture the moments we wanted in the lighting we needed, recommending a variety of locations for some private moments as a couple and group activities with our family, and keeping us grounded and calm throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, Nadia took the reigns and gently guided us through the day with compassion and grace. She constantly reminded us that each moment was for us and encouraged us to revel in all of the details. She even conquered some pretty crazy heights armed with multiple cameras and a walky-talky to capture some dramatic and beautiful couple’s portraits. Beyond being an incredible photographer, Nadia is one of the most genuine and kind people I’ve met. She has a knack for keeping elopement/wedding day energy light and helping her clients feel natural in front of the camera. My partner and I truly felt like models. I feel so blessed to have our wedding photographed by her and, above all, be able to call her a friend. I would recommend Nadia at Venture Ever After to everyone planning an elopement, wedding, or adventure in the PNW. In fact, I hope to be able to visit her and capture anniversaries and momentous occasions for our family long into the future.

(both elopement and wedding, so we have best of both of what Ann offers) We were looking for a down to earth photographer (to make us comfy) and one who traveled, but ended up with that and more! We had met up virtually with many other photographers before picking her! She was very helpful throughout the planning process, helped with advice on my indecisiveness and helped think of things no one else did day of and during the planning.

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time!

I was able to fully enjoy myself without worrying about how the pictures would turn out - Hereafter Films handled everything flawlessly. The final products were stunning, and we are so grateful to have such wonderful memories captured. I would highly recommend Hereafter Films to any couple looking for talented, professional, and personable wedding vendors.

Capturing weddings as they unfold rather than directing how they should feel. My approach is quiet and observant — present enough to anticipate moments, but never interrupt them. The day moves naturally, and the images follow.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

While planning our wedding, I knew I needed a photographer with a unique eye—someone who could zoom in on the most intimate, fleeting moments, but also zoom out and capture the full picture. That’s exactly what Coral delivered. I first found Coral before the wedding & was lucky enough to do an engagement shoot with her. She followed us around during a casual day in NYC, but somewhere along the way, she became so much more than just a photographer—she became a friend. She truly has an eye for love and knows exactly how to capture it in the most natural, effortless way. She is an absolute sweetheart and such a joy to work with—something that honestly goes without saying once you meet her. The photos from our engagement shoot were so incredible that hiring her for our wedding was an easy decision. And somehow, she exceeded every expectation. It almost feels strange to say we “hired” her, because it felt like having a friend there with us the entire day. She delivered more than we could have ever asked for. Everything was absolutely breathtaking—the photos, the videos, every single detail. Each image felt better than the last, & the variety in her style kept everything so interesting and elevated. Looking back at everything she captured feels like reliving the entire experience, and for that we are beyond grateful. 3
