Photographs are love letters to the heart. I’m here to capture the most important moments of your life from the first anniversary, to the engagement, to the first day of your lives as a married couple. I have been a photographer for 8 years now and I love what I do! Not everyone can say they chose their career at the age of 14 but I feel so lucky enough to say I did. Located in the Seattle/Tacoma area willing to travel anywhere to be your official hype woman!

Allison was so great, she managed to make it fun, stay on schedule, and keep everyone focused and in line all at the same time.

Bright and colorful wedding photographer based in Chicago and Seattle but available to capture the nostalgia of your wedding day no matter where you live. I'm passionate about your story, personality, and vision.

Before finding a photographer, you do a lot of research to find someone who fits your needs. I was impressed with her website -which has information about her experience and portfolios. She was fantastic from beginning to end, as she made us feel at ease -so our smiles came naturally. She was extremely patient and took phenomenal pictures in the most breath-taking locations. Not only that, but we were shocked at how fast we received our proofs. I would recommend Laura to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Your wedding is about you and all the amazing people there to celebrate. While I can take some Instagram-worthy portraits, I spend the majority of my time at weddings capturing all the little moments going on throughout the busy day. I want to capture the wedding in a way so when you get the images, you relive the story and feel how it felt.

Kayla is an absolute delight to work with on every level. On a personal level, she is hilarious and down to earth, and has a natural way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. From start to finish we had the best time - and then I got her photos back. Somehow she managed to make me look like the most fantastic version of myself when I wasn't even trying?? She has a gorgeous eye for color, her edits are stunning, and it genuinely feels like I've worked with an artist. You cannot go wrong with this lady!

My filmmaking journey has taken me all over the world, from Japan to Iceland, creating a wide variety of promo videos, real estate walkthroughs, graduation stories, and short documentaries. However, my true passion has always resided in capturing love stories. For the last seven years I’ve focused all my passion on capturing the unique and intimate moments on wedding days.

Larissa is the sweetest and super easy to work with!! She is very professional, timely, and overall very organized. She has great communication and pays close attention to details(which is very much appreciated). The video she put together for us was 11/10 and wowed me more than I could have hoped. Her work is absolutely stunning. Anyone would be very lucky to work with her 3

I am located in Chicago, IL and I LOVE photography. I am inspired by the fun and wild couples who are looking for an adventure. Wherever there is fun, laughter, and good company, I'M THERE. Being outside, camera in hand is obviously one of my favorite things to do, but equally a passion of mine is connecting with people and making them smile! Let's get you married and make the most of it while capturing all of it!! If you are ready to play dress-up, have a good time, and let me be your third wheel, let’s do it!

My fiancée and I recently had the pleasure of posing for our engagement photos with Amanda Ford Photography. Amanda absolutely went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and ensure that we enjoyed our photo session. She was communicative during the photoshoot, had great suggestions, was quick to respond to our messages after, and returned edited photos much sooner than expected. I could not recommend anyone more highly than Amanda Ford Photography!

Hey Franz, Sarah here! I'm a wine-drinking-Taylor-Swift-singing-Golden-Hour-loving-cat-lady and I cannot wait to meet you! I've had a camera in my hand for well over a decade and honestly, this job just keeps getting better! I love living in Seattle because (call me crazy) I actually enjoy a good rainy day, snuggled up for a Netflix and Chill sesh. I also love the deep diversity and support for the love of all kinds that we have here and that I am honored to capture with my camera. I cannot wait to witness your love story and gift you back your memories in the form of photographs.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a million wonderful things I can say about Sarah! From the moment we met I knew she’d be a calming presence to have around for our wedding. A few months after getting her booked for our wedding date, we did an engagement shoot in downtown Seattle. We wanted to use a parking garage that we love, (sounds odd I know. But such a great view!) and Sarah made it look beautiful. But most importantly she made CJ comfortable being photographed without being goofy. Those photos turned out perfect. Fast forward to a few months ago.... as a 2020 Bride.... with everything that has been happening this year, Sarah was very straightforward about what was required for her to be able to shoot our special day. I respect her so so much for following the law’s and guidelines around photography and only operating when allowed! We lucked out and the phases lined up so Sarah could capture our day. Everything had been uprooted, changed, and forced to adapt several times over. When all of that is happening... the best thing a bride can ask for is an above & beyond vendor! She was punctual, for arrival and thought-out the day. She helped in so many ways that aren’t in her job description & I couldn’t be more grateful for that. When everything had to be canceled and re-planned, you’d be amazed @ what falls through the cracks. But she helped us wade through all of it! The photo preview we received the day after the wedding made my heart sing. She captured so many moments perfectly, I honestly don’t know how she scoots around for different angles so quickly. If you are lucky enough that Sarah is available for your preferred date.. snag her! She was a joy to be around and her presence will be a welcomed light & stress reliever on your special day!

Adina Stiles Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Des Moines, WA

I like to live by the motto: “Well behaved women seldom make history.” My grandmother used to tell me this regularly. I am passionate about photography as it's a way to capture memories of special moments and events of our lives. I have maybe 5 images of my grandmother because she was always the one trying to take the pictures. I wish I had a few more. Photography is an art that I love to offer. I love that I can use photography as a gift to couples and I want them to be able to look back on their wedding as the best day ever.

If you are looking for someone who is truly passionate about what they do, Then you will want to hire Adina! From the moment she was recommended to me, I fell in love with her work and I knew that I wanted her to capture our wedding. She was supportive throughout the entire process, talking with me when I had questions and gave me advice about anything and everything I was unsure about. On the day of the wedding, Adina and her second shooter, Alana were wonderful! They were very attentive to our vision and had great ideas to help us capture the moments we wanted. We love our wedding photos and the magical way in which Adina captured our big day! I could not recommend Adina enough!

Claudia Noelle Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Des Moines, WA

My name is Claudia, I am a wedding photographer based in Seattle, Washington and I love Jesus, traveling, hiking, and anything chocolate! In 2018 I graduated from Whitworth University in Spokane, WA with a degree in Graphic Design. I recently moved back here to the Seattle area and I am so happy I did. All of my passion and drive ultimately comes from the Lord. He has given me this gift of photography and design; it is my job to share it with all of you! All credit goes to HIM. I am extremely passionate about capturing your special moments! I want to hear YOUR story, to help make you more comfortable in front of the camera.

My now husband and I booked Claudia for our Fall 2019 wedding and we are so lucky to have picked her for our photographer. Where do I even begin? Claudia was so kind, professional, and prompt to answer any questions thru the entire year long process from when we booked with her in 2018. I was the organized bride who had EVERYTHING planned out along with a bunch of outdoor photo locations chosen until it decided to pour rain/snow the day of our wedding on what should have been a beautiful Fall day. Claudia was quick to calm me down and suggest photo locations inside our venue. She encouraged me to go outside for some photos when the rain let up a bit and I AM SO GLAD WE DID! Those photos turned out to be my favorite photos that Claudia has sent us, ironically enough since I was reluctant to get my dress wet prior to the ceremony. Claudia might be small, but she has a mighty voice and was able to quickly organize the groomsmen and families into photos for our new short timeline due to weather. I can't thank Claudia enough for the NEXT DAY sneak peeks (who even does that?! Claudia does!) and for all of her help capturing our wedding day. I would highly recommend Claudia to anyone I know.

I’m a Seattle wedding photographer and a dog lover. my passport is current, and I will travel anywhere your wedding adventure takes you - even elopements! My photography is inspired by traveling the world and telling stories through my images. I would be honored to be your wedding photographer. let's meet over coffee or a glass of wine- I would love to learn about your vision for the big day.

Working with Tony was a delight and I would recommend him 10/10. We were connected to Tony through a friend and I'm so happy we were able to meet and work with him for our engagement, rehearsal, and wedding photos. Not only are our photos incredible, but Tony was great at giving us direction, calming us down, making us laugh, and slowing us down to enjoy the day and the process. We were able to get all of the family and "must have" photos, but the large scale nature shots are our favorite and beautifully highlight the scenery. Tony was seemingly everywhere during the weekend and it's impressive how many shots and angles he was able to capture. Tony is responsive, communicative, and a joy to work with. I'm sad it's over, but I am so happy we were connected to Tony for our wedding adventure.

If you are looking for the perfect wedding day 3rd wheel bestie - you have found your girl. PNW Based Photographer located on Camano Island, WA. I am a Military wife and mother of two wild kiddos. I have been in business for over 10 years, and have photographed weddings for 8+ years now. I am a Photographer that is in love with true honest emotional love; the silly faces, the bad jokes, the awkward moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
From Day 1 of communication: Lauren was absolutely so professional. She was super easy to talk to, really direct & transparent, and helped us figure out a package that worked best for us. She was prompt & efficient with all communication. She gave us rights to own & use all of our photos (given a good old tagged link to her profile on social media). —this was extremely important to us! Day 2: we met over the phone to go over things & she again, was soooo prompt and professional. We didn’t love how other photographers were highly intrusive in our love story or the nuances of our love story. As contractors ourselves, we wanted someone that was clear, concise, and transparent with communication & she exceeded our expectations. She was able to accommodate our request to have our Aussie puppy a part of our wedding & our engagement photos. It didn’t hurt that she has a sweet pup that looks virtually identical to our lil boy. Day 3: we meet for the engagement shoot in a DREAM location that was near & dear to our heart, she bought our pup a toy he loves to this day sooooo much! She helped us break out of our awkward selves in front of the camera enough to get some incredible shots that we used for our wedding website, invitations. Day 4: she arrived on time, gave us exceptional service on the day of our wedding. She collaborated seamlessly with our other vendors she’d never met prior. She took incredible irreplaceable pictures/video of our first look. She got us the sweetest previews so incredibly quickly. She recognized how to motivate us (aka a competition) & made it a race to see how fast we could get through our 100 person wedding taking pictures with each guest. She gave us the most generous wedding gift our vendors gave us wedding gifts—sweet freaking above & beyond) & she got our sweet little pup a fantastic present again too. Day 5: she just got us all of our wedding photos back. The entire suite. There’s SOOOOO many pictures. She did a phenomenal job not only capturing our favorite moments, but really giving us the freedom to pick which photos were really valuable to us. She took time & care & really has an incredible eye. As if we weren’t totally obsessed already…Our friends got married a week after us & used a different photographer, and honestly, seeing their photos that were 3x’s as expensive and a quarter of the quality, we were EVEN MORE validated going with Lauren. I highly recommend her services. I can’t wait to get pregnant in the next few months, & I’m 10000000% going to ask her for some epic pregnancy shoots. 100/10

Just a little backstory on how I got into this business. When I was a child, I loved taking pictures of everything. And I mean everything! (I get that from my mom.) Now my dad didn't share this same joy as me because back then it was all film and every snapshot I took...he knew he had to pay to develop. We love to look back on that time of my life now and see where it got me. Its a funny story to reflect on, but so rewarding to see a joy turn into a passion and that passion turn into a career!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want someone who will get excited about your creative vision and go out of their way to help make it happen, Skylar is your photographer! I had an idea to take some unique photos in a specific location, and she without question let me know she had experience in what I was looking for. On the day of our photoshoot, she went above and beyond to get the right shot and made us feel really comfortable getting our photos taken in public (which isn't easy to do!). Skylar really made our engagement photoshoot so memorable and special, I am so grateful to her for the care she put into our session. The photos turned out great too!

Dani (Elle & Co Photography) has an art of being professional while also being laid back and understanding. We had a lot of things pop up on our wedding day and Dani knew how to take charge and keep things going but she has a safe energy and made everyone in our group feel super comfortable. She was a great addition to our day! Not to mentioned was very accommodating to what we’ve wanted and our photos are actually pieces of ART. I cannot believe how amazing our photos turned out. I had a dream of having head turning wedding photos but I wasn’t confident I was capable of having them because I don’t know to pose or act in front of the camera and Dani made it happen for us. We are so happy with our photos and will be bugging Dani for years to come to continue to capture us.

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love.

I am a travel photographer based out of Louisville, Kentucky. I have always been the friend with the camera admiring those around me. I am truly captivated by people simply being people, always finding beauty in human connections and the REAL. My goal is to be a calming presence, help the day run smooth, and ensure everyone in front of the camera feels COMFORTABLE. I lean toward documentary style photography emphasizing what makes your love unique.

I cannot express enough how incredible our wedding photographer was! From start to finish, she was nothing short of amazing. Her attentiveness and calm demeanor put us at ease throughout the entire day, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment. She exuded professionalism in every aspect of her work, ensuring that every detail was captured perfectly. What truly stood out was her talent and thoughtful approach.

Hi! I'm a published wedding & elopement photographer with over 5 years experience under my belt. My vibe is romantic and earthy, and I've photographed it all from intimate, hiking elopements in a national park, to large, luxury 300+ guest weddings. My specialty is incorporating your location into your images, and really utilizing the natural colors and beauty surrounding us - wherever that may be. I love anything involving sunsets, a good golden hour, a cute puppy or baby to squeeze, and will probably cry along with you during all of your most sentimental moments throughout our time together.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the second I contacted Kaila she’s been nothing but professional and kind. She’s always prepared for the pictures with whatever may be needed. She not only sets everyone at ease but makes it fun! The best part is when you receive your gallery EVERY picture is a winner. Kaila’s turn around time is quick and easy to download. Honestly changed my opinions on photographers once I found her.

At Charby & Co, we believed your love story is too important to not be captured how it feels. While we prefer to be sharing your stories, here's a little bit about us as your husband and wife photo+video duo! Jasmine is a California born and bred photographer with over 7 years of experience shooting weddings. While on lockdown in March of 2020, she met a photojournalist from Minnesota named Jacob. After years of watching Jasmine in the business, Jacob joined as a wedding videographer to put his experience as a storyteller to work. We now travel as a couple to capture love across the states, no travel fees wherever your wedding is.

Jasmine is incredible, which there isn’t quite a word adequate to describe her. She is fun, personable, and a bride’s champion. Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and she captured the vision I wanted. But, she was also the perfect hype woman and stood up for what I wanted. There’s truly no words to describe and express how glad I was to have her as my photographer.
