Choosing a photographer to capture one of the most intimate days of you and your partner’s lives is no small feat. I'm here to loudly love on ALL my couples. These are images you’ll hold onto forever and pass down for generations to come, so trust is essential. With two decades of travel experience, I’m not only comfortable navigating the intricacies of international travel but also thrive on the excitement of exploring new destinations. Whether you choose to elope with only the mountains as your witness, or have the big white wedding of your dreams, I can’t wait to celebrate your love.

Julia is the best! She has a great eye for photos. She knows how to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera. She took our photos for our court house wedding and we hired her to do our reception photos next year because we liked them so much. If you’re looking for someone who can capture your special moments she is a great option. Her pricing is very reasonable. Also she is just easy and fun to work with! She really went above and beyond.

Justin really nailed it. He was flexible, easy to reach, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He has a gift for capturing both the big moments and the little details, and his candid shots feel timeless. Beyond his talent, he brought kindness to our guests and patience when challenges came up.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Absolutely thrilled with our experience with JL Thomas Photography! From our first meeting to the final delivery of our photos, they were nothing short of exceptional. 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. If you’re looking for a talented photographer who will go above and beyond to make your wedding memories unforgettable this is it. We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you for making our day even more magical!

We're Josh and Kate — a husband-and-wife wedding photography team in Snohomish, WA. 15+ years, 640+ weddings, hundreds of PNW venues. We shoot documentary-editorial style: real moments, no stiff posing, no pulling you away from your own wedding to manufacture photos. Our editing philosophy, Color Integrity, means your photos look like your day actually looked — not a trendy filter that ages like milk. We publish our pricing, we shoot as a two-person team, and we still get teary during first looks.

From our first conversation with Kate at GSquared Weddings Photography, we knew we'd made the right choice. She kept us in the loop with timely messages throughout our planning process and even sent helpful articles to guide us along the way. On our wedding day, Kate showed up prepared for anything—she had red wine wipes on hand, kept our timeline running smoothly, and navigated some tricky family moments with grace and humor. Her eye for candid, dynamic shots really shines in our photos, capturing the raw joy and emotion of the day without feeling posed. Kate anticipated our needs before we even realized we had them, which let us focus on enjoying every second. We can't recommend GSquared Weddings Photography enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about our photographer/videographer from sound originals. Our photographer was on it. She paid attention to details, she hyped us all up and never made us feel awkward, communication was excellent, she even helped me put my veil on. Above all else the photographs she captured exceeded every expectation I had. I am the kind of person to take a million pictures of myself and hate them all, but I looked beautiful in every picture. My confidence after seeing those pictures has skyrocketed. She was a true gem of a human, the sidekick every bride needs. She knew when I had enough of posing for photos and wanted to get back to the party, and she never made us feel bad about it at all. I wish for every bride to have an amazing team behind them and just know if you choose to go with sound originals, you will.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Luke was such an amazing addition to our wedding! He was our first choice for wedding photography and was originally booked up on our date. With Covid changes, we were able to get Bear Beau for our rescheduled, smaller wedding, and we couldn't be happier! Luke brought such a joyful, calm, and helpful presence to our wedding. All of our guests noticed how kind and happy Luke was as he ran around taking pictures, and still talk about how great he was a couple months later. I really couldn’t imagine our day without the help of Luke. He brought such a calmness that made me and my fiancé relax and just enjoy our day. I was able to rely on him to know our schedule, help with the flow, he remembered details like my veil and bouquet- all sorts of things that helped our day run smoothly. Luke even arrived an hour and a half early than planned to get more getting ready photos and detail pictures, which I appreciated so much! Luke also worked amazingly with our videographers. Guests thought they were from the same company because their work together at the wedding seemed so seamless! Luke was really kind and respectful to make sure the videographers were able to have their time and space to capture the day as well. Luke is so skilled and quick that we got amazing photos all day long but never felt like we were busy taking photos- the whole day felt natural and easy. And of course Luke is so extremely talented! We love our pictures so much as they captured the genuine happiness and feel for the day. All the pictures are beautiful!! My husband and I couldn't be happier with the photos we got back and feel so grateful for Luke's above and beyond talent and service for our wedding day. We would recommend Bear Beau to everyone! Out of all the vendors we hired, he was one of the most valuable and made the biggest difference for our day.

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.

Lindsey not only took wonderful photos she was extremely flexible to help us out! Our wedding was on the mall in DC Nov 2019, and it so happened that the Caps won the Stanley cup and the celebration parade was going to be in DC right in the middle of our photos and ceremony... Lindsey went above and beyond and showed up early to make sure we'd have time for all the photos with traffic etc. We also thought we could hit 2 photo spots per ceremony and we.onyk got one / portrait gallery and she when through there like a boss and got.us amazing photos all around the museum. In front of modern art. In stairwells. Dancing in the large attrium area. Our photos to this day are still my favorite :-)

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.

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.

I have been in my share of weddings and know there are photographers who either miss moments or take cheesy pictures - Doug exceeded my hopes and expectations. He got all the shots I wanted and some really awesome candids. He was able to get shots of the important moments and used the space and the lighting to our advantage. He managed to get up close shots but somehow I never felt like a camera was in my face. On top of all that - he was extremely kind, attentive, and efficient.

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!

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.

I cannot say enough good things about Chelsea! I loved working with her and her assistant on the wedding day and leading up to the wedding. As a wedding planner, she made my job easier from start to finish! She was extremely kind and responsive in the months before the wedding. Chelsea was incredibly professional, genuine, and fun to work with on the wedding day not only with me and other vendors but with her couple and their guests. Her ability to make her couples feel at ease is reflected in her gorgeous photos. I highly recommend Chelsea Terry for couples looking for a great addition to your vendor team and to capture one of the best days of your life!

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.

Joe photographed my wedding a couple months ago, and we can’t say enough amazing things about him, honestly, he's a rockstar and so incredibly talented! From the moment we met, he made us feel so comfortable and at ease, and that energy carried through our entire wedding day. Honestly, his vibe and presence were stellar; I instantly thought I could be friends with this guy. Now, to the photos, every single one is pure magic! The way he used light and angles—while seamlessly incorporating the stunning nature of our wedding venue—made every image feel timeless and full of life. His passion for his craft and genuine care shines through in every shot. If you’re looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond to give you the most stunning, heartfelt, and artistic photos, you've found him! I can't recommend him more. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll cherish these memories forever.

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!

Leaving you saying, ‘that’s so us’” - I had no clue this was Sarah Jane’s tagline until a week or so after our wedding, but in the meantime as I retold the story of our incredible wedding day to all of our friends and family I kept saying, “In the best, most quintessentially cheesy way possible, it was so us.” And it truly was, the location, the hiking around, the dogs, the camp cooked dinner, all of it was a perfect culmination of our lives together. Sarah Jane is a true gem. Her energy and positivity makes the wedding planning process fun. She is incredibly supportive and thoughtful when creating a wedding day that honors the couple and their vision. During our wedding day, she kept checking in on us to ensure we were doing okay and she was the ultimate hype woman to ensure we were having a good time and feeling good - she has a way of making a person feel SO GOOD about themselves. She did an incredible job curating a schedule for our day hitting each of our key activities and landscapes we wanted to have on our wedding day. Her skill and artistic vision is astonishing, the way she uses light and the natural landscapes to take beautiful pictures is astonishing and I will cherish our photos from that day for the rest of my life. Every fiber of your being will be grateful you booked her as your wedding photographer.

We have asked her to be there for our engagement pictures, wedding pictures, and for our daughters newborn photos as well. She was a calm and refreshing presences at our wedding. She was professional, personable, and didn't add to any wedding stress. Which made it that much better too! My husband and I look at our photos all the time and are so grateful we asked her to capture these memories. Book her and you will not be sorry. The quality and care she puts into her work is very rare now a days. Lindsey is a very talented photographer and we will be using her for many future moments as well.

Seattle, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

An Illinois-born Creative and Alternative (Ordained) Wedding Photographer and Designer living in West Seattle. I love my two Standard Poodles - Gallifrey & Lola, my perfectly worn in black leather jacket, my dark blue BMW Z4 aka "Sexy", Doctor Who, a really good cup of coffee (or three) and my ever supportive partner on this journey - Casey. I believe that everyone has a story and that story deserves to be captured and told. Love is love. Weddings, elopements, proposals, vow renewals, couples portraits and more... I'm here for it in the PNW and beyond.

Working with Brandy A Photography was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was easy, helpful, and respectful throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly professional, creative, and impressive - they went above and beyond to capture every special moment of our wedding day. Brandy put forth the extra care to make sure everything was done to perfection, and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come. We highly recommend Brandy A Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

I love what I do because I get to witness moments of joy and turn them into gorgeous photos that contain the feeling of the moment forever. My style is a little classic, a little editorial, a little photojournalistic, and everything about telling your one and only story. When you look back at your photos in one, five, twenty or fifty years, I want you to remember how the day felt, each photo holding a moment in time.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best.day.ever. Whether it was getting to know us through our engagement shoot, helping me trouble shoot our day of timeline, recommending vendors, and keeping us calm on the big day-she was the #1 reason our day ran so smoothly. Her humor put us at ease, her direct but calm demeanor kept things on track, and above all, she truly cared that we were enjoying ourselves! Emily was the first vendor I contacted after becoming engaged, and she was the best decision we could have made. Our photos are perfection!

Victor Zerga Photographer

As the years have gone by in my career, I have had the pleasure of cultivating a long-lasting journey with my clients, no matter where it began. I have joined in at various times, whether it was at the start of a marriage or with a family that had kids. Regardless of when it all started, I love being there every step of the way to preserve the fleeting moments. We can agree that life goes by far too fast and change is inevitable. Let’s capture these moments, shall we?

Victor Zerga was one of the most professional and kind people we have ever worked with! From the very beginning of our wedding plans, I knew I wanted our wedding photos to reflect Victor’s beautiful lighting style and creativity. He was the photographer for a friend of ours’ wedding years back and I knew I would want to fly him out to Dallas to be a part of our special weekend. My husband and I had an East-African/American bicultural wedding that lasted 2 days long of celebrating and Victor knew exactly what we needed and how to handle our intense wedding party and guests (over 1,000 people at our reception). We’re so grateful for our flawless wedding photos! It’s a time we will never ever forget.

We're a Seattle-based team of adventure elopement photographers and planners, creating intentional, stress-free elopement experiences across Washington — from the Cascades to the coast. More than just photographers: we’re also your guides, planners, officiants, and adventure crew, here to help you plan the elopement of your dreams from start to finish — so you can focus on each other, not the logistics. Hiking boots optional.

Our elopement with Ashton and Tess went above and beyond what we could've imagined. It was an incredibly special day full of laughter, adventure, love, and peace. Not only are Ashton and Tess amazing photographers, but they also made us feel at ease when taking photos. We started planning pretty early on and the Wilderpines team helped us find vendors, hiking locations, Airbnbs, and just about everything you would need for an elopement! We didn't need to stress over small things because they handled it for us. They provided plenty of gear for us to use on the hike which made the entire adventure seamless. We were able to focus on us and focus on having fun. I cannot recommend them enough. From their professionalism to their friendliness, we are extremely grateful for choosing them as our elopement team. Ashton and Tess are both such beautiful people inside and out and we were lucky to have them photograph and officiate our marriage. Thank you again for such an amazing elopement. We will forever cherish the day we got married on top of a mountain with y'all!
