I've been photographing weddings for 25 yeas in 2024! I love capturing authentic moments in true color. I went to college to learn photography and business. I've always wanted to be a photographer, and my studio specializes in weddings, maternity, newborns, and family photography. I believe in capturing all of the milestone moments for you, from when your family begins to when your kids go to college.

Irene of IJ Photos is a highly-skilled and respected photographer, but also one of the kindest, most sincere people you will ever meet in your life. It is that focus on people and their relationships that allows her couples to just relax and enjoy themselves knowing that Irene has all the shots covered. And it's those relaxed moments where the authentic relationship of a couple can shine through. Knowing that you're going to get great photos is certainly reason enough to hire Irene. But a big bonus is that you have her by your side while you're planning your wedding. She will often meet with couples at their venue - even if she's been there many times - to show them different spots and talk about lighting and such. As a colleague in the wedding industry, I respect her so much that I hired her to take our family photos last year.

Hello there! ! I’m Jen Lee, a wedding photographer in Seattle for over 8 years, I consider it an honor and privilege to be entrusted with documenting the most significant chapters in a couple's life. In my early years as a Creative Portrait Director shooting professional models and full editorials, I immersed myself in the world of visual storytelling. Creating these captivating narratives allowed me to move into the real world of weddings. With an innate sense of empathy and a meticulous attention to detail, I strive to create an atmosphere of ease and comfort with my professional knowledge in lighting, posing, and story telling.

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!

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!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

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
I work with Skyler Coonan in a recent wedding and she was absolutely lovely and professional. Unlike other photographers she was respectful of our team and equipment, it can get a little out of control when the makeup/hair/photography team and bridal party are on the same room, Everyone wants to do their job but some photographers start moving our lighting to different areas and it makes our job hard, Skyler gave us o it space to finished our work while she was working around us to go her job, She was very professional with everyone not just us, I would love to work with her again and I’ll be recommending her to my brides as well.

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.

But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer.

By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Hi, I’m Marla, and I’ve had a camera in my hands since I could hold one. Travel is what first sparked my love of photography– I felt the need to document every gorgeous landscape in my sights across Europe, Asia, the South Pacific, and here in the States. Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

Seriously where to begin with how incredible Marla is as an incredible and artistic photographer, professional and organized business owner, and welcoming and beautiful person. She immediately makes you feel comfortable talking with her and she puts a ton of effort into getting to know you and your story. She cares so deeply about her couples and goes above and beyond with client experience before, during, and after your session with her. You spend a ton of time with your photographer, and this is who you want as your cheerleader, your confidant, and your friend on wedding/elopement day. Her eye for light is inspiring and you never again will say "I'm so awkward in front of the camera" because her posing is effortless and genuine. She brings out the best in you and your partner and your connection. Candid moments, deep emotion, and joyful forever memories! Marla is the photographer you've been looking for!

Thank you so much for considering Tiggr Tales Photography to capture your special day! My name is Leihla and I am the woman behind the camera. I have been a full-time photographer since 2019, but picked up my first camera as a child and haven't stopped taking pictures since. A certified K-12 teacher, I began my career in lifestyle photography during a summer break some years ago and was instantly hooked. Photography has always been my first love and I am incredibly honored to be entrusted with some of the most important parts of people’s lives.

With every good wedding something has to go wrong. And mine was nothing short of that. We had a destination wedding in Washington and my husband's suit was forgotten. Chaos absolutely ensued! But Tiggr Tales were so helpful and supportive when stuff hit the fan. They helped make sure that things fell into place and even accommodated to the half hour delay in starting. They are the kindest people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Accommodating to my budget and things that happened. The photos were stunning, the turn around time was very QUICK, like a week or so later. Each situation will be different, do keep that in mind, but the flexibility and work they both did was amazing. Thank you Leihla and TJ, we are honored you're apart of our family now!

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home.

I first met Danielle when she put together a styled shoot and my boyfriend and I used the shoot as a date opportunity. Lol She did such a wonderful job and we loved her so much when he proposed to me a year later she was the first person I KNEW I wanted to photograph our wedding. She worked with our budget and helping me figure out how much time and how many photos I could afford. She got every photo on my list and my husband and I felt so comfortable with her too. She was so fun to have at our wedding with us. When I got pregnant she was our first call to take maternity photos. It had been pouring rain in the desert and she still captured BEAUTIFUL shots for us and even brought a dress for me to wear. Again, she took photos for us when our daughter was born and with my entire family which included 9 kids under the age of 15. Every single person ended up with stellar shots and we had several photos as a full group of 17 people where everyone was looking and smiling. Lol strongly recommend her, Danielle is someone you’ll want to keep with you through the years. As a photographer and a friend!

I'm a Seattle-based photographer who loves country music and getting to meet awesome new clients. One of my favorite things about being a photographer is getting to capture all the important moments and life and all the in-betweens. I love getting to know my clients and helping them open up in front of the camera. When I'm shooting, I love to do a mixture of posed and candid, but my main goal is to capture your personality in the photos.

From the moment we booked Heather Greene Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Heather was prompt, positive, and easy-going throughout the entire process. On the day of, she was incredibly organized, capturing all of the important group shots professionally and efficiently. We also loved how quickly she delivered a sneak peek of our photos - the images were absolutely beautiful and captured all the special moments of our day perfectly. Heather Greene Photography provided incredible value and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, reliable wedding photographer.

Jess is such a polished and talented photographer, truly a master of her craft and brings genuine light and emotion into her photos. I had the pleasure of having her shoot my wedding, which was a smallish affair of about 30 people, and the pictures came out better than I could have imagined!

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!

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

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!
