From the moment we booked JL Thomas Photography, Jennifer was a dream to work with. Her communication was crystal clear, informative, fun, and friendly throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Jennifer not only prioritized our list of photos, but helped enforce our timeline and herd our guests when they didn't want to be where we needed them. She was a true stress reducer on my wedding day. The quality of her work is exceptional, exceeding our expectations in every way. In all honesty, I always get nervous when other people take pictures of me, thanks to different camera angles and a fluctuating body weight. I was terrified that I would see myself in photos of the most beautiful day of my life, and see myself as less than… but let me tell you, I have never felt more confident in sharing pictures than the ones we received. Jennifer’s tips on posing, feedback in the moment, and constant reassurance built my confidence, and it showed. The sneak peeks we received were absolutely beautiful, and we can’t wait to see the rest. The value of Jennifer's services is incredible - honestly, I think she should charge more, even though I’m glad her packages were within our budget. She felt like a true friend to us, and I cannot recommend her enough. I brag about how amazing she is every time I talk about our wedding - which is a lot. We are so glad we chose her, not only to capture our special day, but to be part of it as well.

Hi! I'm Lauren, but you can call me Ren. It's so great to meet you! I've had the privilege of photographing love and connection for the past six years, and I still smile when I tell people that this is my job—because it’s never felt like one. Being invited into such intimate and vulnerable moments is something I don't take lightly. I’m not just here to take pretty photos; any photographer can do that. I want to create an experience that genuinely reflects your love story and helps you remember what it felt like to love deeply in this moment, right now.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Ren for our small courthouse ceremony on Whidbey island and I was seriously blown away. She is so thoughtful, caring and TALENTED. She was very fun to work with and really wants to make sure everyone gets what they want out of the experience... but also give guidance! My husband and I both hate staged photos and were not super into the idea of professional cheesy romance photos but these are SO ROMANTIC and just pure style. Ren's style is classy and classic but also hip. We loved every moment working with Ren even though it was pouring down rain like seriously such a huge rain storm. Ren is a trooper for sure she did not complain at all about having to work in the rain and was so kind working with us as we froze our tushies off. We loved working with her so much we hired her AGAIN like 3 days later to take pictures for us at our wedding reception. Hire her for seriously any photographer needs just do it she is the absolute best and you will not regret it!

Eva Waltz Photography

Bellingham, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800

My favorite colors are yellow & orange, my love languages are words of affirmation & quality time, & most importantly, I'm obsessed with my guinea pigs, Nugget & Corndog. To me, capturing your story means looking for little interactions during our session, going to places special to you, including the things you love, & creating an environment where you’re comfortable being who you are. Our lives are precious, and the littlest moments become the biggest ones.

Where to even start. Eva has been my go to photographer for many years now. She's captured my proposal, engagements and wedding day. There truly aren’t enough words to explain how amazing Eva is. She’s the most kind and thoughtful person I’ve ever met. She pours EVERYTHING into her work and clients. Not only will you be left with the dreamiest, most magical and emotional photos to treasure forever, you’ll enjoy every second of the experience with Eva. She naturally guides you through your photo sessions making you relax and actually have fun through it all. Shes always listening and supporting from the initial email to final photo delivery. I’ve been lucky enough to know Eva and watch her become even more talented year after year. I could truly keep gushing over her as she’s made every one of my photo dreams come true. If you’re ready to work with someone who is so passionate and will do everything in her power to make you happy and bring your vision to life, Eva is your new bestie to do just that!

Booking with Bear Beau Photography for our wedding was one of the best wedding-related decisions we made by far! We had a great time shooting with Luke, he made the experience a lot fun and also made us feel so comfortable! We just got all of our pictures back and they are better than we could have ever imagined. He really captured how special and magical our big day was. He has such a great eye and totally nails it when it comes to getting that picture that says a thousand words. I can't express how happy we are with all our pictures and I definitely recommend Bear Beau Photography!

Seriously the only thing I regret is not finding Tracy and Bill sooner to do our actual wedding day. We hired them this past summer to do re-do photos since there was a bomb cyclone on our actual day that put a kibosh on the mountain top wedding we dreamed about. Not only were the understanding about our circumstances, but they helped us figure out details we wouldn't have thought of ourselves. From being flexible and ensuring multiple day availability in order to make sure we got a great weather window, to their communication, to the actual sunset pics on the top of the mountain. It was a dream, and they even helped us figure out what hike to do after pics were done! :) We get compliments all the time on the photos and "stunning" is probably the most common word out of people's mouths when they see them. I was even in a coffee shop with a friend three months after the fact that I hadnt seen in those three months that as soon as I showed up, she stopped the group talk and told them all about my wedding photos, LOL. Please hire these guys, you will have zero regrets and a lifetime of looking back on amazing memories .

We had the absolute pleasure of working with AK Photography for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience! From the very beginning, they made us feel so comfortable and understood exactly what we wanted for our photos. They truly captured the essence of our day in a way that exceeded our expectations. One of the things that stood out the most was how quickly we received our photos—both from our engagement session and the wedding itself. We were amazed at how fast they got everything back to us, and the quality was just stunning. Every shot was beautiful, thoughtful, and truly reflective of our special day. AK Photography went above and beyond, making sure that every moment was perfectly captured. They were so attentive, always checking in to ensure that everything was going smoothly and that we were happy with how things were unfolding. It felt like they were genuinely looking out for us, and that personal touch made all the difference. We have been recommending them to all our friends who are engaged because we know they will be in great hands. If you want photographers who are not only incredibly talented but also warm, professional, and committed to making your day unforgettable, AK is the way to go. We couldn’t be happier with the memories they’ve helped us preserve, and we’ll be forever grateful for their exceptional work!

I have had the great pleasure of working with Kayla and Rochelle of Old Growth Photo Co on several weddings as a fellow vendor and on the other end of things when Kayla took really beautiful couple's portraits for me and my partner! I am always impressed by the way they interact with their clients, making them feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera. I also appreciate their communication and their ability to work seamlessly with other vendors, such as myself as a wedding makeup artist. I immediately get excited when I see my cients have listed them as their photographer or videographer as they are one of my very favorite vendors to work along side. It makes the wedding day run much more smoothly, and the end result is always stunning!

I'm Sandra. I’m drawn to photos that trigger a memory. I’m constantly trying to create work that takes you back to the most beautiful moments of your life - big or small. Photos that remind you how little they were. How handsome he looked. How perfect the sun felt and how warm those cuddles were. I want to help you remember how it all felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding someone to capture your big day is one of the toughest things to do. When I met Sandra, I knew she would embrace every real detail of our wedding, and truly bring out the best in us. She did all of that and more, and we’ve been so thankful to have such beautiful photos to look back on. She doesn’t just take photos, she takes photos of who we are as people, and highlights on our inner beauty. Sandra is professional, kind, and very down to earth (which can be so important to nervous brides!) I’ll definitely be going to her future photography needs, and can’t recommend her work enough.

We're Natasha and Brian! A husband and wife, PNW elopement photographer duo. When we're not getting slimed by our own slobbery dog Fern, or helping you plan your dream wedding day, you can probably find us alpine lake lounging, making a weird new kimchi flavor, or deep on the forestry roads in our (always dirty) Tacoma blasting some indie alt or rap (there's rarely an in between lol). We're your photographers, die-hard dog petters, and donut-eaters that are all about playful banter, real conversations, and no icky small talk.

For me and my now-husband Ryan, the importance of finding an excellent wedding photographer was unparalleled. We discovered Natasha and immediately were drawn to the nostalgic, film quality to her work. We love the way she captures moments that feel both so real and so dreamy at the same time. It’s an art! Additionally, correspondence with Natasha was always a pleasure. She was speedy in her responses, always answered any questions, and just extremely down-to-earth and easy going. Our introduction to working with Natasha came from our winter engagement session. We chose to do the shoot at home and around our neighborhood in Seattle. Though we were still nervous in front of the camera, Natasha chatted with us and helped us open up. The photos from this December day were cozy, comfortable, and felt completely like us! And finally the Big Day arrived! Natasha and Brian photographed our July 2023 wedding and the results were just perfect - more lovely than we could have dreamed. On top of that, we loved getting to hang out with them! They made our wedding day feel calmer, more relaxed, and allowed us to just be us. We highly recommend Natasha and Brian for all your engagement and wedding photography needs. They’re the best!

The attention to detail was amazing as well, always checking for lighting & shadows for our group shots, and the quality is just excellent.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + intimate weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people in love 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.

Hey there! I’m Emma. I’m a sassy, sarcastic redhead and also a complete sap. To keep it short, I value relationships and experiences above nothing else (although some would say I have a serious West Elm and pizza addiction as well). I love reminiscing and think some of the best nights involve sharing a bottle of wine with old friends and laughing about all of our past adventures (while planning new ones too!). When I think about it, I know I was meant to be a wedding photographer - because I admire your relationship, understand how important this journey to marriage is for you two and understand the importance of documenting it.

Thank you so much to Emma for capturing not only our wedding day but also a wonderful engagement photo session! From setting up plans for our big day, to easily directing us throughout our shots and receiving our photos. Everything was a breeze with Emma, and I highly recommend!

Our journey with Ann Marie started when we won (after the first winners didn’t need it after all) her engagement photo package at the Portland Venue Crawl. We were beyond grateful and excited to win such a valuable experience and quickly realized that Ann Marie was going to be so fun to work with. She helped us pick an amazing location that required some travel for her, and it was so much fun - we got sun, fog, rain, sunset, and even a rainbow! She was prepared for it all and made it such a fun adventure. We were really nervous and she helped us chill and get a bit more comfy in front of the camera. She delivered our sneak peaks the next day which were so fun to look through and was extremely prompt with getting us the rest of our gallery. Naturally, we hired Ann Marie for our wedding too and cannot imagine having anyone else! She was so helpful through the stressful wedding planning process, sending us vendor recommendations and always being available if we had questions or needed advice. She has an amazing network and her want to help with things not even photography related was so impressive and very appreciated. There was a major health scare in my family, we weren’t even sure if my dad was going to make it to wedding day and Ann Marie was so kind and supportive. She captured moments for my family that carried a lot of weight and she did it with such grace and thoughtfulness. We are all so grateful for her commitment to making wedding day as special as possible, for my husband and I but also our loved ones. We’ve gotten an amazing selection of sneak peaks and should be getting our full gallery soon - we couldn’t be more excited! Ann Marie is impressively prompt and has communicated with us each step of the way so we were never left to wonder “what’s next?” All of our friends and family are also very impressed with Ann Marie as a photographer and as a person. Hoping to stay in touch and work together again in the future!!

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
