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.

Jennifer and her team at JL Thomas Photography were an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From our very first interaction, their communication style was clear, gentle, and direct - putting us completely at ease. Jennifer was incredibly flexible and went above and beyond our expectations, even helping with small details to ensure our day ran smoothly. We have very contrasting skin tones, and were worried about how the photos would turn out, but Jennifer's expertise shone through. Each and every photo was perfectly balanced with no distortion, showcasing the beauty and intimacy of our celebration. The quality of her work was truly worth every penny, and we are overjoyed with the stunning memories she captured for us to cherish forever.

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

I could not be more thrilled with our choice in photographer than Sound Originals! The quality of shots we received from our wedding were stunning, and that is entirely thanks to Kevin. He was so great at working with us to create beautiful, posed shots, but my favorite photos of the night are those were he captured the live moments of joy. Having the ability to have multiple editing styles was so amazing as it led to some beautifully crafted shots with unique lighting.

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 did an amazing job with our photos. The whole experience from a meeting before to consult about how we wanted the day to go, to easy to follow direction and advice on how to get the best possible pictures on the day. Jonathan is competent and quick but also laid back and helped us take the stress off what is already a very stressful day. And then the photos turned out truly special. Even on an overcast day he was able to create some beautiful photos that will last a lifetime for us. He had ideas for poses and framing but also gave us space to do what felt natural. We would LOVE to work with him again. Cannot recommend him enough

To know Andrew is such a blessing BUT to be able to have one of the most special days of your life captured by Andrew, while having his grounded energy by your side is any couples dream come true. He is not only a visionary, but also a calm, collected and energizing presence necessary to have behind the lens through all of the wedding day festivities! He traveled to Italy for a few days with me, my spouse, my closest friends, and our family, and he left us with the most priceless photo memories. Not only is he a great dance partner and hypeman, he’s also an amazing photographer and his positivity brings a sense of joy to every photo opp. I don’t have all the right words to describe how much his presence meant on our special day but what I can say is- don’t think twice, you’ve found your photographer.

I'm a wedding photographer who cares just as much about how it felt as how it looked. I’m drawn to real connection, quiet in-between moments, and all the chaos and joy in between. I bring a calm, grounded energy that helps people relax, whether I’m goofing off with your wedding party or hanging back to document the magic as it unfolds. My style is part documentary, part editorial, and all heart.

We used Lindsey for our engagement and wedding photos and absolutely loved her! She was so communicative and flexible! One of the spots that we wanted to shoot at wouldn’t allow us to, so she was able to think on her feet and found us a couple of other locations that turned out great! The same thing happened for our first look - there was too much fog at the first location, so she was able to figure out an alternative on a really short timeline! Our pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL and I’d love to use her again for future photography needs!

Photographed Like a Film. Every wedding has its own rhythm. I don’t force it into a shot list or spend the day manufacturing moments. I move with what’s already unfolding, knowing when to step in with direction, when to let the scene breathe, and when to simply follow where the story leads. The result feels cinematic without ever feeling staged.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

My goal is to illustrate the feelings of the day through my gallery, so you can relive the day over and over.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the most magical, perfect wedding and one of the most wonderful things about it is I have incredible photos to remember it. I cannot emphasize this enough, if you need a wedding photographer, pick Erin. There are a lot of things I could say about Erin, but I’m going to break it down into two categories: experience and quality. Erin is warm, funny, and a wonderful listener. My husband and I both don’t love photos and from our engagement shoot onward Erin made us feel comfortable, engaged, and like ourselves. She takes extra time and effort to get to know you as a couple and what will and won’t work for you. All of my wedding party and many of my guests have reached out to me to remark on how wonderful, kind, and comfortable Erin made them feel during our wedding. Basically Erin is just amazing as a human and that translates into her being able to create an experience for you that allows you to focus on your event and the love you share with your partner and you never have to worry because you trust Erin will make things work because she understands you. Second, I AM SO BLOWN AWAY BY THE QUALITY OF ERIN’S WORK! Like I knew from her website she’d be great, but looking over the photos we got after the wedding made me realize just how talented Erin is. She captured every moment and emotion so beautifully. I can see the love and joy in every photo. Seriously, I teared up when I looked at some of them because they so reflected how I felt in that moment. These are photos I’m going to look at for years to come and never wonder what was happening or how I felt because they were so well captured. Erin is a magician with her camera and you will not be disappointed for one second by how incredible your photos turn out. Erin is an incredible human and phenomenal photographer. I cannot sing her praises high enough. Hire her. You will not be disappointed and you’ll have your most precious memories captured to perfection.

If you want the photographer of your dreams and a hype woman, Brynna is the one! Both my husband and I are the most unphotogenic people on the planet (think Chandler from Friends), but Brynna has a way about her that makes you feel beautiful and a natural in front of a camera. Throughout our entire COVID wedding experience, Brynna was nothing but flexible and positive. We had to move our wedding up by three weeks and Brynna didn't bat an eyelash and was there in a heartbeat, thank goodness she was even available! When the big day came, I was beyond miserable from the anxiety, but when our photos came back, I see nothing but beautiful memories. Looking at our 900 photos brings tears to my eyes; my husband and I are having a tough time choosing which to hang in our home! I cannot recommend Brynna enough, you won't be disappointed!

On top of all that, his pricing is very reasonable for the incredible quality he provides.

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.

Working with Jenn Patterson was an absolute joy! I truly appreciate vendors who communicate clearly and go above and beyond — and Jenn does exactly that. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Douglas was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding on 08/17/24. Our original wedding photographer cancelled two weeks before our wedding, and a friend recommended we reach out to Doug. He was thankfully available and from the moment we reached out, he was so easy to communicate with - always quick to respond, extremely accommodating, and so easy-going. His work has been absolutely beautiful, he has an amazing understanding of light, composition, and framing with a lot of experience working with outdoor conditions that truly captured the essence of our special day. Doug fit right in with our wedding - he showed up early, stayed late, and somehow (while just following the standard schedule of the day) managed to get the most incredible true lighting and color in *all* of our photos - everything feels exactly like the day itself felt. We couldn't be happier with the results and would without a doubt recommend Douglas R Hall Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

I’m Oxana (Oxy), a Seattle-based wedding and portrait photographer with a documentary heart and an editorial eye. I love capturing weddings the way they truly feel — honest, unposed, and full of quiet in-between moments that often go unnoticed. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, present, and completely yourself in front of the camera. I work best with couples who value connection over perfection and want their photos to feel natural, personal, and deeply intentional.

From our engagement shoot, we knew Oxy was going to be amazing, but we didn’t realize just how impactful she would be throughout our entire wedding experience. During our engagement session, she made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. She let us truly be ourselves while still gently guiding us into the best poses and moments. She had fun prompts that genuinely made us laugh, never felt intrusive or “in our face,” and delivered so many beautifully edited photos with natural colors and timeless editing. Leading up to the wedding, Oxy was incredibly helpful and encouraging through all of her planning check-ins. She provided thoughtful photo checklists, helpful suggestions, and made the entire process feel organized and stress-free. On our wedding day she captured our first look perfectly while also giving us the privacy and space to truly be present with each other in the moment. She also somehow managed to wrangle our entire family for portraits while still keeping everything calm and fun and ensuring nothing got missed. So many of our friends and family commented on how warm, kind, and wonderful our photographer was, which is such a testament to who Oxy is as both a person and a professional. She delivered far more photos than we expected, and every single one feels meaningful and high quality. We had shared the people and moments that mattered most to us, and she captured every single one beautifully. I’m currently pregnant with our first child, and we’ll absolutely be using Oxy again for maternity photos. She’s the kind of photographer that once you find her, you keep coming back for every milestone. We truly could not imagine our wedding day without her, and I cannot recommend her enough.

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.

Hi, I’m Alexander—a Seattle-based wedding and event photographer and Best of The Bash award winner. Since 2023, I’ve photographed 60+ weddings and dozens of events, capturing genuine emotions and real moments that couples can relive for years to come. My approach is relaxed and natural so you can enjoy your day while I document it authentically. I offer wedding and event photography starting at $500, professional editing, digital delivery, and Photo Booth rentals to add a fun, interactive experience for your guests.

Alex captured one of the most meaningful moments in my life so perfectly, I still can’t believe how beautiful the photos turned out. My going-away shoot was emotional and bittersweet, and he somehow translated all of that into images that feel so real and timeless. Beyond his incredible eye, Alex is just an amazing person to work with—so easygoing, personable, and genuinely invested in making you feel comfortable and confident. Nothing felt forced, and that’s exactly why the photos feel so authentic. If you want someone who can truly capture a moment and not just take pictures, Alex is your person. I’ll cherish these photos forever.

I'm a non-binary, biracial Seattle based photographer who cares deeply about capturing the natural beauty of your wedding day. I have an eye for the cinematic, the human, the hopeful, the quiet moments of magic....

He was a pleasure to work with. From the first time getting connected, he was accommodating and adjusted his pricing accordingly for what the customer needed. The photos taken were a mix of candid and professionally taken, and they were spectacular. He was quick to respond, and had a plethora of options to communicate. Text, call, email, etc. He also was very professional throughout the whole event, and captured the moment very well. Definitely a pleasure to work with and recommend his services to anyone for any event. The editing skills for photos are also top tier.
