“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.

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”

“If you’re looking for a wedding photographer stop looking right now and choose April! When I first got engaged one of the most important things to me was my photographer. April's candid photos and color aesthetic was everything I dreamed of in a photographer. She is very kind, and outgoing, her personality and energy made it feel like family was taking our photos. She was always on time to our sessions and takes a billion photos in the fastest time I’ve ever seen. I was someone who initially wanted two shooters because I was scared I wouldn’t get all the shots I wanted, but she DID THE DANG THING. All of my photos, wedding, and bridal were perfect!! We hope to work with April for future family photos and any other reason I may need a photographer. She’s someone you just want to keep around forever! Thank you April.”

We believe in creating an atmosphere of comfort and trust, allowing us to seamlessly blend into your celebration while capturing candid, genuine emotions.

“I love Amber. She's very passionate about what she does & how it should be done. She is ever so patient too. We had about 42 family members at my wedding staying at the venue and she arrived with her assistant at 8:00am to start setting up and she left late in the evening. We could not have asked for a more dedicated photographer for our wedding. We definitely wanted more caught in the moment natural photography and she went above and beyond to catch some of the best moments of our big day. We have six children who were all grooms men & her patients/direction to get them to cooperate amazed us. My family was talking about her the next day after the wedding. She caught all the right moments at the right time even the kids doing crazy fun poses. She went above & beyond and even rerouted my officiant to remind him to let guests know not to take pictures or video tape our wedding (he told us he almost forgot) Thank Goodness for Amber & her team! Our ceremony was so romantic & intimate with no one snapping pictures but her. She was stopping in to talk to the maid of honor so not to stress me out, people who were pin pointed tasks she stopped to check in with. I am so grateful that she does everything with a smile because I'm sure we drove her crazy with my family & our anxiety! Haha She is thoughtful & thinks way ahead for every moment. She had us save a champagne bottle to use later for a sunset shoot which was so exciting and fun. Our first look was very special & full of tears from the groom. There are so many moments I will cherish because of Amber & her team. Amber- thank you so much for being a part of the best day of our life. You are honest, kind, generous, patient and so creative. You made our family laugh & you were so organized even with the chaos of such a big wedding. We appreciate you so much & how hard you worked. We are so excited to see the rest of our wedding pictures! The sneak peaks were AMAZING! A million thank you's!”

Meet your favorite FUNtographer: Stephanie began her studies with the plan to become a pilot. However, as her love for photography grew, she decided to pursue her passion as a business full time, getting to weave her love of capturing moments artistically and want to share that passion with others into a successful business where her clients always come first. Building into her style, she found her travels and time living abroad in college have influenced her images and allowed her to challenge her personal style of capturing moments, and coupled with lots of in the field learning, she is able to catch true emotions in a timeless way.

“Stephanie was a great photographer for our big day. When she found out we didn't have a wedding planner during our initial consult meeting, she also gave us some great tips/hints, which led us to feeling a little less overwhelmed with it all. During that first meeting, Stephanie made sure to walk through the general look and feel of what she'd be doing during our wedding. We went over a pretty comprehensive list of family/group shots that we wanted, and she assured us that the day was going to be special. When she showed up for the day of the wedding, she was prepared and professional and definitely knew how to handle two anxious grooms who were running around making sure everything was good for the festivities. My partner and I just let Stephanie take the reins for how our photos were done, and I'm sure she would have preferred a *little* guidance, we're so glad we did, because her ideas were better than anything we could have come up with. Also, having that list of group shots was so important, because it made taking pictures with all of our family and friends fly by. As for the ceremony and reception, Stephanie was adept at blending in/not being noticed while capturing all the memories we could hope for. The pictures have been fantastic, and I don't know if there's a better person who can take two awkward guys, put them in what seem like awkward poses, and make beautiful pictures. Thank you so much Stephanie!”

I am a documentary family and wedding photographer located in the Seattle-Tacoma area. I accept commissions for family sessions, portraits, weddings, commercial and editorial work. I'm based in the Great Pacific Northwest, but please inquire about traveling, I love to do that too and do take commissions on the road when I can.

“Jess is incredible. If you like her documentary style there is no reason not to hire her. From our first glance at her portfolio, we loved her magazine profile style shooting, our only fear being that because her sample shots were so good that when it came time for the wedding our photos wouldn't meet the bar. Jess shot our engagement & wedding photos and provided hundreds of high quality images that capture us as a couple and our guests personalities. She took the time to not only get to know what we hoped for but also who we were so she could really capture that. I didn't want to spend my wedding day posing for photos, but spending it with friends and family, and Jess understood that deeply. She was willing to ask for a shot when it made sense, but also melded into the wedding and took great shots capturing beautiful moments. Our wedding was split across three venues ranging from outdoor/harsh light, to cramped indoor room, and a massive banquet hall in each she did an excellent job and got images that truly feel like they could be printed in a glossy magazine. I feel so privileged to have had her be part of our wedding, in the end I find myself with similar sentiments to a reference I called, when asked how Jess ranked amongst their vendors, she said, "Can I rank her amongst my guests too? Because I think she was the best person at the entire wedding!"”

“Exceptional Wedding Photography Experience I recently had the pleasure of working with a Ben and his team (shout out Mike!!), Promani Weddings, whose talent and professionalism made our wedding day truly unforgettable. From the moment we met, it was clear that he wasn't just there to take pictures—he was invested in ensuring our special day was captured in the most beautiful and authentic way possible. -Personable and Friendly Approach One of the standout qualities of our photographer was his warm and personable demeanor. He immediately put us at ease, making us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. This was especially appreciated during those hectic pre-ceremony moments when nerves were running high. His ability to connect with us and our guests on a personal level created an atmosphere of trust and camaraderie, which translated into natural and genuine photographs. -Unique Candid Photography Technique What truly set our photographer apart was his innovative use of candid photography. Instead of staging every shot, he discreetly captured spontaneous moments that perfectly encapsulated the emotions and relationships of everyone present. This approach resulted in photos that felt alive and authentic, reflecting the true essence of the love and joy we experienced that day. Looking through our wedding album, we were amazed at how he managed to capture moments we didn't even realize were happening, yet are now some of our most cherished memories. If you’re on the fence about doing candid photography for your wedding, this is your sign to DO IT! -Superb Communication and Understanding Throughout the planning process, our photographer was incredibly communicative and attentive. He took the time to understand our vision for the day and worked closely with us to ensure every detail was accounted for. His professionalism and dedication were evident in his proactive approach to logistics and his responsiveness to our questions and concerns. He was not just a hired vendor but a true partner in ensuring our wedding photography exceeded our expectations. -Execution of Vision On the day of the wedding, Ben seamlessly executed the vision we had discussed. His keen eye for detail and mastery of light and composition resulted in stunning images that captured the beauty of the venue, the emotions of our guests, and the intimacy of our ceremony. He balanced capturing the big moments with the subtle nuances that made our day unique, ensuring that every aspect of our celebration was documented with care and artistry. I cannot recommend Ben, Mike and Promani Weddings highly enough. His talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft shone through in every interaction and in every photograph. He not only met but exceeded our expectations, delivering a collection of images that we will treasure for a lifetime. It’s been two weeks since our wedding and we already have our edited photos, highlight reel and full ceremony video. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only capture moments but also enhance your wedding day experience, look no further. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we are forever grateful for the memories he preserved so beautifully.”

Her energy is also so down to earth and relaxed which made me and my fiancé feel at ease with the photos. I look forward to having another party just so I can hire her again :)”

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

“My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.”
