Seattle Flashing Lights Photography 
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700
  • Serves Kirkland, WA

Meet your favorite FUNtographer: Stephanie began her studies with the plan to become a pilot. However, as her love for photography grew, she decided to pursue her passion as a business full time, getting to weave her love of capturing moments artistically and want to share that passion with others into a successful business where her clients always come first. Building into her style, she found her travels and time living abroad in college have influenced her images and allowed her to challenge her personal style of capturing moments, and coupled with lots of in the field learning, she is able to catch true emotions in a timeless way.

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!

The most consistent feedback I get from my couples is that I put them at ease. Almost everyone is uncomfortable in front of the camera, but that’s why I’m there — to help you look and feel great creating memories. Your wedding photographer is in your personal space on one of the most emotional days of your life - make sure the person in your corner is someone who adds to the joy on your day. With me, you get someone who can go with the flow, has your back, and seamlessly adapts to the energy in the room.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Hi There! I'm Sally! Nice to meet you! I am a passionate couples photographer in the Seattle, WA region. I am known for my warm, candid photo style. Forget stiff poses, I am ALL about directing with fun prompts!! I want to capture the raw emotion instilled in you. Let me tell the story of your relationship, family, personal life, etc! My clients mean the world to me & I am always ready to help them in any way that I can! I get to know you, so I can make you the most comfortable during our session.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful to have landed Sally to be part of our wedding day—she was the perfect fit for our intimate, immediate-family Utah destination wedding. The stars aligned and we happened to be getting married at a location on her Bucket List, meaning we only paid the cost of her travel and lodging from St. Louis. Working with Sally was an incredible experience and an absolute steal. From the time we booked with Sally, it was clear that she is experienced, genuinely loves her work, and takes the time to really understand clients’ visions for their day. In initial video consult, she was direct about the best times/lighting for photos, yet flexible and willing to plan our day just the way we wanted. She was fast in responding (almost immediate) and responsive to any/all questions or requests ahead of time. Sally not only traveled to Utah and woke up at 3 AM with us to capture sunrise photos—she stayed with us and sustained her energy, enthusiasm, and professionalism for the next 9 hours or so. (We parted ways in the afternoon but think she might have kept going for another 9 hours if our party hadn’t all been ready for a nap!) The photo sessions themselves were fun, adventurous, and lighthearted. Sally is true to her style, which is to capture her subjects as their authentic selves—resulting in a mix of traditional portraits and more whimsical, natural, and candid shots. We love our photos! Sally was also exceptionally efficient during group photos: as she had curated a list of groupings we wanted ahead of time, she pulled these up and we were done with family shots in under 20 minutes (and they turned out fabulous)! To top everything off, Sally sent us a celebration goodies box ahead of our wedding as well as a beautiful wedding gift afterward. In all, we could not have chosen better and recommend Sally 100x over!

No matter who you are or where you came from, everyone has a story, and stories were meant to be told. I tell stories through photography. Weddings are incredibly meaningful and intimate. 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 is an amazing photographer who clearly shows his dedication and talent, and puts great care into his work! We were very fortunate to have found him shortly after our engagement in October 2023. His photography style and bold colors aligned with what we were looking for. Not only were we drawn to his work, but we loved his fun personality, his professionalism, and his kindness of wanting to know us! Jonathan asked about our story, got to know us as individuals and as a couple, and made sure to tell our story through our photos. He even went overtime to help us with our timeline! He made us feel so comfortable in front of the lens and calmed us when we felt we were not on schedule on the day of the wedding. We love our engagement photos and wedding photos. Highly recommend Jonathan as your photographer! We can’t thank him enough!

  • Serves Kirkland, WA

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.

Emma Lee Photography was added to our recommended vendor list before I started at Ray's and throughout the years has become one of our favorites. Emma's professionalism, easy going nature, and dedication to her clients and partners makes her a dream to work with. And of course her photos are gorgeous- always such vibrant, rich colors and the unpredictability that comes with an outdoor space never trips her up. 5 stars! Emma Lee Photography rocks!

With over a decade of experience in the photography industry, my passion for creating beautiful imagery runs deep. From the tiniest details to the most precious moments, I approach each shoot with a meticulous eye for detail and a dedication to capturing authentic emotions. Every click of the shutter is fueled by a genuine love for what I do - creating images that speak volumes and will be treasured for a lifetime. Let's create something beautiful together.

To know Andrew is such a blessing BUT to be able to have one of the most special days of your life captured by Andrew, while having his grounded energy by your side is any couples dream come true. He is not only a visionary, but also a calm, collected and energizing presence necessary to have behind the lens through all of the wedding day festivities! He traveled to Italy for a few days with me, my spouse, my closest friends, and our family, and he left us with the most priceless photo memories. Not only is he a great dance partner and hypeman, he’s also an amazing photographer and his positivity brings a sense of joy to every photo opp. I don’t have all the right words to describe how much his presence meant on our special day but what I can say is- don’t think twice, you’ve found your photographer.

I'm probably personally biased because I knew Brynna as a friend before hiring her BUT I can honestly say she is incredible and you should look no further. My friends, family and husband all gushed over what an amazing job she did for days after viewing our wedding photos. In face, a year later I still get so many compliments on her work. Not only are her photos amazing, but Brynna is the person you want staring at you for your entire wedding day. She will be your biggest cheerleader, schedule keeper, and therapist in times of chaos.

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.

Laura did engagement photos for us in the middle of winter in Colorado, which is a challenge to begin with, and she greatly exceeded all our expectations. She suggested several locations for our shoot and was very flexible on the day-of due to weather conditions. We selected a mountain/lake location, and Laura was an expert at taking shots with different lighting and in different scenery around the venue. She made it really easy and comfortable for us to transition for our outfit changes, too. She came prepared to help fix my hair and makeup throughout the day and gave great advice on positioning and stance for different shots. My husband and I LOVE our photos and give all the credit to Laura for making sure they came out so beautifully, even in such extreme conditions! She also did an amazing job at editing our photos and providing finishing touches. Laura was also one of our photographers for our beach-side wedding a few months later. She took our favorite photos of the whole event and captured the most special moments beautifully. Thank you, Laura!

Awarded Best of Zola
Douglas was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding on 08/17/24. Our original wedding photographer cancelled two weeks before our wedding, and a friend recommended we reach out to Doug. He was thankfully available and from the moment we reached out, he was so easy to communicate with - always quick to respond, extremely accommodating, and so easy-going. His work has been absolutely beautiful, he has an amazing understanding of light, composition, and framing with a lot of experience working with outdoor conditions that truly captured the essence of our special day. Doug fit right in with our wedding - he showed up early, stayed late, and somehow (while just following the standard schedule of the day) managed to get the most incredible true lighting and color in *all* of our photos - everything feels exactly like the day itself felt. We couldn't be happier with the results and would without a doubt recommend Douglas R Hall Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

We reached out to Natalie to be our wedding photographer because her portfolio was beautiful and colorful! From the moment we met Natalie, we felt a connection to her. When we had a vendor hiccup in the planning process, they were supportive and suggested alternatives - demonstrating their thoughtfulness and kindness. On the wedding day, her professional expertise shone through. They were organized, attentive, and seamlessly blended into the background, capturing moments without being intrusive. Her calming presence and ability to anticipate important shots made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to fully enjoy our day. Natalie’s talent for capturing genuine emotions and the smallest details was really evident in our wedding gallery.

Mahdi was voted our best vendor at our wedding! By us and by friends that got to know him. From our first phone call I was like, man this guy is cool and relaxed. I'm also pretty relaxed but obviously this can change on your wedding day, so having a laid back photographer was perfect for me. He arrived a bit early to set up and we chatted a bit and he went straight to work and my bridal party loved him right away. I would recommend Mahdi to anyone looking someone to perfectly capture their day or even just capture the moment. You will not find a nicer, more professional, or fun person to help you to remember the most important day of your life.

Hey I'm Chelsea! I'm a wedding photographer based out of Seattle, Washington. I'm a super happy 32-year old who is head over heels in love with her job. Photography lets me combine all of my INFJ superpowers into one package, & it fills me with so much joy to share that with my clients. Beyond photography, I'm a total hippy at heart; I love all things nature, the moon, traveling, wildflowers, old creaky houses, thrift shopping, plants, hiking & horror movies.

Chelsea was our wedding photographer, and we loved working with her! We both typically feel a little awkward having our photos taken, but Chelsea really made us feel comfortable and at ease the entire time. She really is a calming presence, and is just super friendly and fun to hang out with. We were so impressed with how our wedding photos turned out, as were all of our friends and family--in addition to getting great portraits of us, she captured so many fun moments from the wedding. We'd recommend working with Chelsea in a heartbeat!

If you want to see yourself captured in an elegent, MAGICAL way that has you jaw-dropped staring at your screen thinking, "It's like she peered into our very SOULS and gave us everything we wanted!" book Zoe for a shoot. My wife and I told her we wanted a Princess Bride-themed wedding/engagement shoot and not only did she deliver, the results look like frame stills from a faithful HD remake, fog and sparkles and romance and all. She normally does portrait photography so we were so happy she covered our ceremony afterward. And it's not like you can't tell until you see the results - Working with Zoe, you'll see her zipping around, improvising, framing shots, all while filming a behind-the-scenes of the whole thing, and it's a wonder to behold. It was a great journey from start to finish and we loved working with her and I've no doubt we will do so again next time we need a boost of magic in our lives!

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.

If you need an elopement photographer drop everything and book Marla right now!! We changed our wedding last minute from Hawaii to Vashon Island WA and Marla was the only photographer whose work grabbed my attention! We had a great first call and I could not have asked for a better photographer. Marla was amazing in getting all the photos I asked for traveling with us and doing a first look on the ferry. She helped keep me calm and made the day feel just about Adam and I. She captured the joy we felt throughout the day and brought so much fun to our photos! I have had more people compliment me on our photos than i thought possible. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MARLA!!

I believe that everyone is beautiful. Somewhere deep within you, there is a fire of light and joy. Not everyone’s light shines in the same way or with the same strength or even all the time. Stuff changes. People are different, but deep down, everyone is connected to the little bit of themselves that is truly theirs. I’m also all about being adventurous. That could mean we’re going to go climb a mountain or it might mean we’re going to try the really spicy chai tea. By experiencing life in the process of making photos, you’re going to be even more connected to the images because they will have stories that go along with them.

We had the privilege of working with Joe for multiple wedding events as we wanted a fall mountain top elopement & micro party followed by a larger party in the spring. As we started planning the different events, it was most important to us to have a photographer experienced in mountain top celebrations. We decided to work with Joe and could not have chosen better. Joe not only ran up a mountain with us but was involved in all the planning details including sharing a list of the best larch hikes, watching the weather and pinpointing exactly when golden hour would be hitting specific peaks. Even as the sun was setting and the light was fading, Joe found all the last bits of alpenglow to make us feel and look like we were the only ones standing on top of the world. He even carried heavy film cameras with him to capture the evening and we're so glad he did as they resulted in some of our favorite photos. The photos Joe took exceeded all our expectations and we have been excited and proud to share them with all our friends and family. Joe's skill doesn't stop on a mountain top. For our micro and macro party events, he brought an incredible sense of calm and serenity to all the wedding chaos around us. He was somehow everywhere, capturing incredible candid moments while still taking leadership to direct the posed shots we wanted. Joe captured the differences and highlighted the uniqueness in each of our events and yet each gallery we received feels cohesive and timeless. It's impossible to choose favorites and it's going to be very difficult to determine which photos to hang on our walls.

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.

I hired Larissa to shoot a video for me and she surpassed every expectation. As a professional myself, when I hire someone to shoot for my business, it means that I'm giving them the utmost trust because they are representing the business that takes care of my family. I gave that trust to Larissa and she blew me away with her professionalism, kindness, eye for detail, technical knowledge, and fun to be around personality. As a professional wedding photographer and videographer myself, I would hire her in a heart beat to shoot my own wedding and that is saying something. She is worth every penny and then some and I look forward to working with her again.

It feels really good to take the craft that I love so much and share it. The scope of my photography is wide but I specialize in weddings and elopements. I've been photographing weddings since 2005. I believe in vibing well with your photographer because let's be honest, your photographer will be up close and personal with you throughout your big day so it's important to choose someone whose energy you enjoy and mesh well with. Having a phone or zoom chat or meeting in person is a good move!

I'm east coast born & raised, but a loyal Seattle convert since 2014. I love trash reality tv. I teach aerial yoga once a week. I'm usually craving fries. I'll never turn down a margarita (except while I'm on the clock at your wedding!). I lead student trips abroad with National Geographic. I think there's no better way to spend a summer day than in the sun and on a paddle board. And I think that your wedding should be exactly how you and your partner want it to be. Email me at katejmillerphotography@gmail.com and I’ll tell you hilarious stories and answer all of your questions.

Very professional and Team Orientated! Loved how they work with the vendors to keep the clients best interest.

My clients are a little different, as they tend to stray away from the norm and make their own rules. They love the details, but care more so about making memories on the first day of their marriage. The wedding day timeline is full of things important to them, not what society says they should have. Their love is a celebration of emotional connections with friends and family, wiping away tears when the moment gets the best of them, and dancing their asses off with no care as to who sees. So, if you connect with all this, then I am definitely your kind of photographer. LOVE = LOVE, all are welcome here!

We met Erin through searching for a new photographer as we didn’t love our engagement photos experience. Erin asked us thoughtful questions to pinpoint what we wanted for our wedding- 90’s Ralph Lauren vibes. We felt an instant connection with Erin and she is so easy to communicate with. Herself and her second photographer she brought for our wedding day knocked it out of the park. Our wedding was large with lots of family and friends but they managed to somehow be everywhere. Getting to look through all the moments we didn’t see on our wedding day was so special. Huge shoutout for saving the bride’s dress when her toe started bleeding shortly before the ceremony! We love Erin and look forward to using her again one day! Xo The Petersons

I don’t take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time. I spelI things how i want and I will never wait for a crosswalk. I prefer quality over quantity. Unless we’re talking about coffee, chocolate, wine, shopping, and deals…then i want quality and quantity. I’ve got a potty mouth and a good heart. I give so many fucks about what I do. The details, the experience and creating some real good imagery. I’m an artist and I want to create something beautiful for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we met Andria, we knew she was the perfect photographer to capture our wedding day. Her eye for detail and capturing images is truly exceptional. Her photos feel like velvety heirlooms that we treasure every time we look at them. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable on our wedding day, she was the ultimate MC and helped make our day flawless. While a constant professional, she still made sure everyone had fun and was comfortable in front of the camera. What started as our engagement and wedding photographer, continued with a boudoir shoot, two newborn shoots and two 1 year-old shoots (7 sessions!). We hope to have Andria involved in our family's future milestones, as long as she'll have us.

After 5 years working in the music industry managing bands, organizing large-scale festivals, spending time on staff at a radio station, and being the lead singer & guitarist in a band, I knew I wanted to be involved in the magic of coordinating a moment. Juuust with wedding music playing in the background. ;) Now I’m completely in love with capturing special moments at weddings and engagement sessions for couples in Washington & Oregon. PLEASE INQUIRE THROUGH WEBSITE!

Leaving you saying, ‘that’s so us’” - I had no clue this was Sarah Jane’s tagline until a week or so after our wedding, but in the meantime as I retold the story of our incredible wedding day to all of our friends and family I kept saying, “In the best, most quintessentially cheesy way possible, it was so us.” And it truly was, the location, the hiking around, the dogs, the camp cooked dinner, all of it was a perfect culmination of our lives together. Sarah Jane is a true gem. Her energy and positivity makes the wedding planning process fun. She is incredibly supportive and thoughtful when creating a wedding day that honors the couple and their vision. During our wedding day, she kept checking in on us to ensure we were doing okay and she was the ultimate hype woman to ensure we were having a good time and feeling good - she has a way of making a person feel SO GOOD about themselves. She did an incredible job curating a schedule for our day hitting each of our key activities and landscapes we wanted to have on our wedding day. Her skill and artistic vision is astonishing, the way she uses light and the natural landscapes to take beautiful pictures is astonishing and I will cherish our photos from that day for the rest of my life. Every fiber of your being will be grateful you booked her as your wedding photographer.

I’m Julie! I am so excited that you are interested in choosing sound and sea to document your special day! I believe that choosing a wedding photographer is about more than just hiring someone with a camera to document your day. your wedding photographer should be someone who makes you feel comfortable, someone who eases the craziness of a wedding day, someone organized and fun, and maybe, someone who eventually becomes a friend.

Julie with Sound & Sea Photography Films is amazing! She came through for me last minute and took some incredible shots of one of the most important days of my life. The final photos were perfect-the lighting, the poses, the scenery. 100 percent recommend!

California native, PNW resident, coffee drinker, dog scritcher, friend, forward-thinker, designer. I hate having my photo taken (go figure), my dog Boone makes me laugh every day, and I thrive off of honest, intentional conversations. I’ve worked as a photographer for over 8 years and I know that half the job is connecting with people and offering them an experience, not just a gallery. I believe you have to feel comfortable with the person behind the camera before you can let go and fully be yourself in front of it.

Becky worked with us for our elopement photoshoot in October 2023 and it was an incredible experience from inquiry through the photoshoot itself. I had been referred to Becky through a friend who had worked with Becky on her own beautifully photographed wedding. Becky’s warm response to my inquiry set the stage for a great experience. Becky is exceedingly organized and communicative, meeting with us over video chat and later chatting with us through her online portal. She helped us create a shared vision for the day, and leading up to the photoshoot, we felt confident the day would go very well. I was admittedly very nervous for the shoot, as I feel uncomfortable posing in front of a camera. Becky’s demeanor - calm, comfortable, funny, and enthusiastic - settled my nerves immediately and allowed me to be present with my husband on this meaningful day. The photos Becky took are simply incredible. She captured our relationship and new marriage beautifully, while also highlighting the gorgeous landscape. Becky’s photos are truly a gift we cherish.

Lessie has a skill set the surpasses many others, her attention to detail, her willingness to try new things and her commitment to the highest quality photos and experience for all who have the honor of booking with her is unprecedented. Lessie was patient with me as I asked many questions and ended up needing a few days to determine if she was a good fit for our wedding and my gosh I am so grateful we booked with her! Lessie has a soul that is so invested in producing authenticity that many photos seem to lack. She gently coaches you through posed photos with a true air of expertise and ease. She also had the flawless ability to capture moments that may otherwise be lost somewhere in memory alone. Moments such as family members dancing, the bride and groom sharing an intimate look and smile or your favorite uncle grabbing one too many from the bar! Lessie captures life and gives life to all she meets. Booking with her will guarantee your photos will be more than you could ever dream. She will be our go to for the rest of our lives!

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Ashley is the best in the business. Period. We were initially incredibly excited to discover Ashley had our wedding date available, however, the result she delivered exceeded all expectations. Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable during the personal shots, but she caught moments in which I was completely unaware of her presence. If you are lucky enough, hire Ashley to capture moments that you will cherish for the rest of your life. Five stars is not sufficient to describe the experience Ashley provides for her clients.

Many things have changed since I discovered photography at the age of 12, I've traveled the world, received my degree in marketing, got married to my favorite human, and even moved from my home country of Ukraine to the US (well, that's a story for some other time :)! One thing always accompanied me though - my passion for photography! This passion allowed me to meet some absolutely incredible people and capture the most meaningful moments for them! I cannot be more grateful for my childhood dream to become a reality!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough positive things about Tetiana aka Tanya. Over the past 2-3 years, I have had the opportunity to work with her on dozens of weddings and editorials, and more recently, professional portraits for my own business. Tanya is creative, professional, compassionate, and skilled. She has a way of being with people that puts them at ease, and uplifts them without even trying. During our portrait session, it felt like we were just hanging out (I consider myself to be somewhat awkward, especially in front of the camera, so that says a lot). She had countless suggestions for shots I never even know I needed. Now that I have my full gallery back, I can officially say that I am thrilled with the results. The photos were originally intended for my social media channels and website, but I realize they're so much more than that, and will be keepsakes I will cherish and look back on years from now to remember this part of my 30's. If you're on the fence about hiring Tanya, let this review be your deciding factor!

Deciding on a wedding photographer is not an easy task because you know these are once-in-a-lifetime memories to be captured, but choosing and working with Taira Marie Photography was nothing short of extraordinary. We discovered their Instagram through our Wedding venue, as they had worked together on some events and photoshoots, and I was immediately drawn to the photography style. It was completely serendipitous to find out that they had our wedding date available and hit it off with their team on our first meeting. Our package came with an engagement shoot, which gave us an opportunity to really get comfortable in front of the cameras, they turned out lovely and we realized how truly passionate Taira is about her job. The photography team worked with us to hit every "shot list" photo we wanted to get on our big day and captured the most beautiful details. Taira and Joey felt like family at our wedding and have been so good to us with their communication and professionalism. Our wedding album just arrived (hand-delivered too!) and it's amazing, I'll never forget how we felt that day because it's so wonderfully and thoroughly portrayed with their photography.
