Zoe grew up in a small town in Western Canada, earned a degree in fashion design in Vancouver, and lived 12 awesome years in NYC, before recently relocating to Seattle WA.

Awarded Best of Zola
Asking Zoe to photograph our wedding was one of the best wedding decisions we made! Zoe is an artist. We’ll treasure our photos for the rest of our lives. Zoe is definitely the person you want to spend your wedding day with (after your spouse, duh)! She has such a calm and cool demeanor and everyone loved working with her. Zoe will also do whatever it takes to get THE perfect shot. We chose a challenging venue, the Seattle Aquarium, with very specific lighting requirements to protect the sea life. Zoe went out of her way to scope out spots and test equipment before the big day. Zoe is so creative when it comes to lighting and all of our wedding guests have been gushing about how cool her photos are.

Hannah Hix Photographer

Tacoma, WA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

It’s simple; I take beautiful images of people in love on film. We travel, we dream, we piece together your vision, and I photograph the way it felt! South/East Asian ceremonies and destinations are my specialty & great love!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah is incredible. We hired her for both our wedding and engagement shoots, and we couldn't be more pleased with her! She has an incredible eye for photography, an amazing work ethic, and a punctuality that is unmatched.. She was collaborative in our wedding plans and combined what we wanted with her experience; she supported our vision but provided direct feedback when she knew something we didn’t. She asked questions respectfully through our wedding day and engagement session to make sure we felt seen and cared for; she was 100% present through the entire process. Hiring her is like hiring a friend: she is kind, thoughtful, and invested in the relationship you create together. She is also very professional, diplomatic, and responsible. Ultimately, you can trust she’ll take the BEST care of you, which is exactly what we all need. And of course, her photos are top freaking notch. You won’t regret having Hannah photograph your special events!!!

Jessica Uhler Photography 

5.0

Tacoma, WA
  • Photojournalistic style

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!"

I took up photography while in high school and really enjoyed being behind the lens and learning a new creative outlet. My first project was sister's graduation photos 5 years ago and realized how much I love capturing milestones in peoples' lives. After graduating, I decided to take my skills from school and pursue photography as a side business. And let me tell you, I LOVE being a business owner. The ups and downs, the challenges and successes...they all make it worth my while. I love meeting new people, adventure, authenticity, organization, and making people laugh. Let's get to know each other!

Miranda was very helpful , professional, and talented. During my wedding day she did so much more than photograph. She is a 10/10 photographer and a 10/10 human being.

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.

Jessica made my day feel so special, and I have the pictures to prove it! The entire process of selecting a photographer and planning my elopement was overwhelming. There are so many beautiful places in WA state and I quickly felt anxious and stressed - until I found Bloom & Wander Co. Jessica is so knowledgeable when it comes to scouting the 'perfect' place that met my wildest wishes. She does a phenomenal job with paying attention to the details I envisioned and planned the perfect timeline for the allotted schedule. We initially had a consultation, and I immediately felt a connection and sense of trust. As soon as I made my deposit, I knew I could take a breath, and have the internal confidence that she would make my dreams reality, plan the day hour-by-hour, and deliver high quality photos for the best day of my life that I will always remember. In order to make this happen, she requests information on a few occasions to get to know what you'd want, who you want pictures with, names of attendees, any special demands, what is important for you, and much more. She truly cares about producing the best work she can with your vision in mind- she risked her super cute purple sweater by laying on the dirt covered ground to capture a champagne toast from below, gave me her sweater to sit on so we could take pictures in my wedding dress in the wildflowers, and used different methods/lenses for enhanced creativity. The night before, she even texted me to change the start time of the ceremony because she was able to check and see what exact time the sun would crest over the mountains for better lighting and pictures. This time change made a huge (positive) difference in the lighting and I am so glad she pay attention to these details! Her personality is so bubbly, fun, and warm. Everyone in attendance at my ceremony had kind words to say about her post-ceremony. I was in complete awe of my photos when they were returned to me. I relived the day over again. I can see the love and happiness radiate in each photo. Her directions to have us laughing, hugging, kissing, and posing were easy to follow and we did not feel awkward. If you are looking for a skilled photographer who doesn't view you as a source of their income, but genuinely is passionate and excited about your special day, producing beautiful photos, and exploding with creativity - schedule Bloom & Wander Co! You will NOT regret it.

  • Serves Tacoma, WA

I got my first digital camera at 13 and spent the afternoons capturing flowers in our backyard; ever since it's been my dream to have my own photography business. Photography and writing were the two ways I expressed myself and were their own kind of therapy for me. And now, I use photography as a type of therapy for my clients. I believe there is a power in the vulnerability of being and feeling seen. So, photography is my tool to help others feel truly seen and celebrated. It's so important to make everyone feel this way, especially on their elopement/wedding day :)

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't recommend Hailey highly enough. She created such a comfortable, easy, and fun environment for us. She took our requests seriously and tailored the shoot to make us feel happy and confident. The photos were delivered to us very quickly after the shoot, and they turned out better than I could've ever expected. She is a master at capturing pure, genuine moments. Looking at them now stirs up so many emotions for us in the BEST way! Hailey is extremely kind, attentive, and skilled in her craft. I will never look anywhere else for a photographer!

We’re a husband-wife duo that love an adventure that involves good views, better people, and some camera creativity thrown in there. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest we know how to appreciate and make the most out of any weather thrown our way. If you’re looking for lots of laughs and smiles, and of course the most poppin’, jaw droppin’ photos and video for that special day or honestly whatever - we’re your people!

We couldn’t have been happier with Elope & Be Wild! They were so fun, so attentive, and so flexible! They helped us visualize our day in the planning process and brought everything to life phenomenally. On such a crazy day, they help to make everything feel seem less and intentional. They constantly were reminding us to be in the moment which we needed since the day goes by so fast. You can tell they truly love what they do. Their love for each other and for marriage shows in their work. We’ve gotten a few sneak peaks back and we are obsessed! Cannot wait to see all of them. Thank you Elope & Be Wild!
