About Mary Pastuh Photography

Mary Pastuh Photography

Lead Photographer

Hello, I'm Mary, a Washington state-based fine art photographer with a passion for storytelling through captivating imagery. Since 2011, I've had the privilege of photographing numerous weddings, each one a unique tapestry of moments and emotions. My approach to photography is deeply rooted in capturing authentic moments and genuine emotions. From the tender exchange of vows to the joyous laughter shared during celebrations, I aim to immortalize every meaningful detail. Whether it's the warmth of a grandfather's embrace or the playful antics during cake cutting, I'm dedicated to preserving the essence of each cherished moment.

What sets me apart is the way I approach wedding photography as storytelling, not just documentation. With over 15 years of experience across the US and Europe, I bring a refined, calm presence to every wedding day, capturing not only how it looked, but how it truly felt. I focus on timeless, elegant imagery filled with emotion, natural beauty, and quiet in-between moments. My couples often tell me they felt completely seen, supported, and at ease, and that is where the most authentic photographs are created. Every wedding I photograph becomes a personal, artistic legacy, crafted with intention, warmth, and a deep appreciation for love.

  • Truly incredible photography experience!

    Mary is such a wonderful, caring, and thoughtful photographer, and we truly could not be happier with our experience. I first discovered her through a Brides magazine post after seeing a stunning photo she captured at a Seattle wedding held at our venue. I was immediately drawn to her editing and lighting style, and how her photos genuinely told a story and captured real emotion. After our first FaceTime meeting, my husband and I could immediately tell she had such positive energy and a true passion for what she does. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Mary consistently went above and beyond. We live in NYC and she flew all the way from Seattle to shoot our engagement photos. We were blown away by her commitment to getting to know us before the wedding and it made us feel even more comfortable on the actual day. She has such a calming presence, which made a huge difference. One thing worth noting is that our venue at the Fairmont has very intense orange lighting and can photograph quite dark. Mary truly worked magic to make everything look light, airy, and natural. We could not believe how beautiful the photos turned out. Beyond her incredible talent, Mary is genuinely an amazing person who clearly loves what she does, and it shows in every photo.

    If you're looking for a wedding photographer, Mary is truly the BEST in the business!! After working with Mary as our wedding photographer, my husband and I knew almost immediately that she would be our photographer for every milestone moving forward. She is that incredible. From our very first interaction to the final delivery of our gallery, the entire experience exceeded every expectation. We genuinely can’t get enough of her work, her energy, or the beautiful way she tells stories through her lens. We were extremely thorough in our search. We combed through countless portfolios, reached out to dozens of professionals, and held multiple interviews to find the right fit. We wanted someone with exceptional technical skill, a strong artistic perspective, and the ability to capture real emotion. Mary stood out by a mile. Her work is the perfect blend of artistic vision and technical mastery, and every image feels intentional, timeless, and full of life. Our venue is notoriously challenging to photograph, with a massive window that makes lighting extremely difficult. We had heard that other photographers had struggled in this space, so we knew we needed someone highly skilled. Mary handled it effortlessly. She approached it with confidence and professionalism and delivered absolute perfection. Our photos were bright, crisp, beautifully balanced, and breathtaking. Every detail and every emotion was captured flawlessly. Several of our friends who are professional photographers reached out after seeing our gallery just to tell us how exceptional it was. They were blown away by the composition, lighting, and storytelling. Having worked with many photographers before, we can confidently say that no one captures beauty, emotion, and authenticity like Mary does. Beyond her immense talent, Mary is one of the kindest, warmest, and most wonderful people you could hope to have by your side on such an important day. She brings such a calming and joyful presence that immediately puts you at ease. We were nervous about being in front of the camera, but within minutes she had us laughing, confident, and completely comfortable. She made the entire experience feel effortless and fun. Mary was not only our photographer -- she was a source of encouragement, reassurance, and positivity throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond in every way, and it was clear how deeply she cared about us and our story. We felt completely supported and trusted her wholeheartedly. We are incredibly grateful to have had Mary photograph our wedding, and we truly can’t imagine anyone else capturing our most meaningful moments. We know she will be there for every milestone in our lives moving forward. If you are lucky enough to book her, consider yourself incredibly fortunate -- you will be beyond thrilled with both your photos and the entire experience.
