Stephanie Bulthuis Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves McCleary, WA

I am so glad you found your way here! My name is Steph (it's lovely to meet you!). I was born and raised overseas in Sri Lanka and moved to the beautiful PNW for college and decided to stay. The world and the people in it are too beautiful not to be art - so here we are creating art out of the beautiful moments you and your lives bring into being. Besides taking photos, I am a big fan of milk tea, hedgehogs, my kid and husband, sleeping in, summer, curry, and friends to share it with. I would love to hear more about you and your story and how I can help document some of your beautiful moments!

Choosing Steph as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our special day! Steph was a true professional and a joy to work with. Steph made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, which really showed in the natural and candid shots she captured. The quality of the photos we received was exceptional. Moreover, Steph's professionalism and organization were spot on. She worked seamlessly with our other vendors and coordinated well to ensure that every important moment was captured without any stress or hassle on our part. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our wedding photos and our experience with Steph. She not only captured memories that we will cherish forever, but she also added to the joy of our wedding day. We highly recommend Steph to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and delightful photographer to capture their special day.

A photography studio located in Aberdeen, Wa . They specialize in wedding, boudoir, couple, and family photography. The studio is known for their ability to capture beautiful and intimate moments, creating lasting memories for their clients.

Annaliesa (and mark) went above and beyond. They helped us set up and break down. Anna was determined to get things done to the point we had to actually make her stop and eat. She cleared out chair to make a dance floor. She even helped with our kids while we were running around and getting ready. Mark even made me a plate of food and made me sit down to eat in the middle of all the chaos. Which I really appreciated. They were on top of everything! And she got all of our pics back to us in less than 24 hours!! We love all our pics and are so thankful we have these memories captured.

Lemonade Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves McCleary, WA

I never meant to be a wedding photographer - but somehow, here I am. I started my career as a newspaper reporter, and left that to be a writer and photographer for a public university. Almost 10 years into my second career, I was laid off - so I turned some pretty sour lemons into Lemonade Photography. I'm a lifelong Northwesterner, a mom to two boys, a nature lover, a proud geek and quite possibly the biggest Harry Potter fan you'll ever meet (don't challenge me to a Potter trivia contest; you WILL lose). I love to laugh, and I love to make my clients laugh along with me.

We have been an Interactive Wedding DJ/MC at over 1500 weddings, and we Highly recommend Jill @ Lemonade Photography! If you are looking for someone who will capture beautiful memories on camera Jill is amazing. We always love her professionalism & wonderful customer service. Photography is an Art and Jill @ Lemonade Photography has got it down. It takes more than a “point & shoot” to be a photographer, it takes time, an artistic eye and raw talent! Not only does Jill encompass these qualities, she also has a great sense of what a person is really looking for through the eye of a lens. She takes her time to find …just the right shot. If you are looking for a photographer that “listens” to what you want, Jill is the one. Not only is she always professional in her work and technique, she is friendly too. Her talent for catching those perfect moments shows in each and every picture!! She captures the most perfect pictures! I can’t say enough good things about Jill. She makes people feel very comfortable right away and is very professional. She does amazing work and knows how to capture the essence of a relationship in one little picture. Jill is also very easy to get along with, patient, and very professional. We recommend her to everyone! Scott & Jina Fijolek AskDJScott.com

Venture Ever After 

4.9

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves McCleary, WA

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.

Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly.

I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

On the day of the wedding, she was very laid back and intuitive, seamlessly capturing all the special moments without us even noticing she was there. Holly's expertise and talent were evident in the stunning photos she delivered - we were blown away by how beautifully she documented our day. We loved working with Holly so much that we've continued to use her for our yearly family photos ever since, and wouldn't want anyone else to capture these memories for us.

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 is so talented and amazing to work with! She made a ton of recommendations for me because I’m eloped I didn’t know who to call, she played such a big part in putting my day together! My photos are so incredible I could not be happier with how they turned out. She made my husband and I both feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture so much emotion! She’s incredibly gifted at what she does and I cannot say enough good things about her!!

Hi! My name is Valerie! I am a hopeless romantic who wants to be behind the lens of your love story. I fell in love with photography in my high school darkroom. I went on to major in media and communication at University of Washington with a focus on visual arts. I have always been a story teller, a big feeler and obsessed with all things love, so photographing weddings is quite literally living my dream. I have photographed over 130 weddings and have the same passion for them as when I first started. I cannot see myself doing anything else.

Awarded Best of Zola
My DJ & Entertainment company has had the pleasure of working with Valerie now on multiple events and I could tell from the first moment working with her she knew her stuff. She strikes the perfect balance of a relaxed and natural vibe as well as understanding a couple's needs to get them the very best photo and experience. As a vendor she was a pleasure to work with and is someone I would definitely recommend in the future. Many vendors feel very chaotic and anxiety inducing - which is the exact opposite of what couple's need on their big day, while Valerie is a total pro in this game always keeping a level head and encouraging couples throughout the process.

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.

We were recommended to Jonathan by a friend and we were happy we selected him as our wedding photographer. In our video calls, he took time to get to know us and to learn what was important to us. We didnt want our wedding day to feel like a photo shoot and preferred a journalistic approach. Before the wedding, he provided a very helpful guide to prepare us for the big day. He was prompt in his email communications and we appreciated the attentiveness he gave us. During the wedding, he was good at being inconspicuous while taking photos. For most of the day, we didnt realize he and the second photographer were there! We gave him the nickname “Photo Ninja”! This allowed us to fully be in the moment and enjoy our wedding. Jonathan revealed the finished photos about a month after the wedding. We were very satisfied with them. There was a mix of group photos, journalistic photos of the ceremony/reception, still photos of decorations, and candid photos of the wedding party and guests. He did a great job of capturing the memories from the wedding. Overall, we are very pleased with Jonathans work. He was accommodating and flexible to fit our needs and budget. He was friendly and easy to talk to. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

Svanna Andrada Photography was absolutely on point in their communication and the quality of their work was amazing, beautiful, and outstanding. They were so amazing, making sure to keep us on track all day (even though that wasn't their job) and they went above and beyond getting pictures of everything and everyone we asked of. She even helped me take my shoes off when my feet were hurting too bad - they were hands down the best photographers we could have asked for. They were absolutely amazing, sweet, so professional, had amazing photo ideas, and got all of our photos to us plus more on time. They even sent us a beautiful momentous box with all of our pictures printed, a beautiful USB drive with all our photos, a discount on another shoot, and a few other things. I can't stress enough how grateful we are for them and how much they will completely blow you away. I can promise you won't regret hiring them for any of your photography needs.

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.

Hi! I’m Jules. I like to think of myself as an artistic storyteller. I love capturing LOVE and have been a professional photographer for 12+ years (don’t let the baby face fool you). I want to know what makes you & your partner tick. Every couple is different & I love making your photos feel like YOU. (& for you to feel super hot, obv.) I would love to share full galleries with you and would be HONORED to create art with you on your dreamiest day! Storytelling is why I do this day in and day out. We don’t do boring over here ;)

Where do I even begin…. We cannot recommend Jules enough. She got herself all the way to New Hampshire/Vermont for us and not only did she take amazing photos but was totally up for hiking a mountain with us. She is so incredibly talented and so easy going. I have looked back at my photos so many times at this point just to feel the memories again. We are both so awkward and goofy, and she was able to transform that into some of the most beautiful photos I’ve ever seen. She is the hardest worker and is so passionate about what she does. Do yourself a favor and book Jules for whatever the occasion might be! You will not regret it!

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

I'm Ashley! I'm still pretty new to the PNW but I am not waisting any time getting to know it. I was born and raised in Mesa, AZ but took my business full time when my family moved to Olympia, WA in 2021. Since then I have been diving in. I am an experienced & confident documentary/cinematic style photographer and LOVE what I do. Truly getting to know you and tell your unique love story is my passion. I can't wait to meet you!!

I’m also a wedding photographer, and I’ve hired Ashley to work alongside me several times, and she’s hired me to assist her as well. She is my absolute favorite person to work with! Not only is she talented and her pictures are amazing, but she is the sweetest and kindest and everyone enjoys her company. She pays attention to every detail and is very thorough. She’s organized and a great leader. Her pictures are always perfect when it comes to the angles, poses/direction and edits. I’ve never met someone as creative as her, I envy her creativity. She’s great at thinking on the spot and problem solving when needed. I fully trust her to get whatever task I’ve assigned to her done. I usually don’t trust other photographers to get what I need without having to step in myself and shoot backups, but with her I have full confidence and I don’t stress about needing to get the shot myself. I’ve hired her for my own pictures and they always are stunning and received in a timely manner. I love that she includes so many pictures and offers them in her edit and black and white. I could go on for days about how wonderful Ashley is, but I hope you take my word and hire her because you will not be disappointed. She truly is the best and is a natural when it comes to photography and planning!

Lets just say, Ann Marie is PURE MAGIC and everything will always work out. I reached out to Ann 1year in advanced from my wedding, at that time I had no true direction of the basic "where, when" details. I knew I loved the beach and the water was calling, but I was feeling the wedding pressure of a local celebration with ALL the family, then maybe an 'after wedding photoshoot at the beach'. Anyways, months go by and probably 3 months prior to the wedding date, I changed up the whole plan. I added a small ceremony at the beach (on Friday), an a larger reception locally (on Saturday)! I was crossing my fingers and toes that she would have room for the extra day. Ann was the best and so flexible with this change, she had already scouted the location (at the beach) and had so many Ideas! She was also amazing as a wedding timeline coordinator (for both days!), she created a detailed Itinerary down to the minute and was able to coordinate with the DJ, she has a vast knowledge of local vendors and resources. She treated us like a close family friend would, making sure we ate food at the wedding and drank water. Making sure we had everything we needed at both locations. Most importantly she made us feel comfortable, My (now) husband had never had professional photos taken before and Ann made it easy to relax in front of the lens. She is the most amazing photographer I have every worked with. (Trust me I am particular with photos and who I choose to capture my memories in time) Also her pictures speak for themselves, they are what photo dreams are made of and I love how she made it fun and relaxing. Granted, climbing up the Cape Kawanda sand dune in a wedding dress with frigid winds swirling around us was a challenge, but somehow Ann made it a magical memory, as if time was standing still and just spending time watching the sunset with my husband. I love how pictures can say 1,000 words, and capture the emotions and energy of a moment. Looking back at these pictures not only transports me back in time, it instills confidence that I am ABSOLUTELY choosing Ann every single time. Thank you for the MAGIC, and MEMORIES. -Delany&Andrew

Alanna was a joy to work with! She was great at communicating in the months and weeks leading up to my clients' wedding, and made sure we were both on the same page. She was punctual on the wedding day and did an amazing job of sticking with the schedule and getting everyone photographed in the allotted time. She was also friendly, fun, and had a sense of calm (which is essential for any wedding professional!). She had the complete photo gallery ready just a few days after the wedding, and her photos were beautiful. I'd be delighted to work with Alanna again!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

I cannot express enough how much I enjoy working with Taylor & Jarod! They are not only very talented, yet very fun to work alongside with.

There are many reasons couples choose not to have a “traditional” wedding, and the beauty is that you can make it anything you want it to be – and that’s also why I care so deeply about making sure every couple I work with knows that their day is important, beautiful, and deserves to be captured so you can look back on every detail. Hi! My name is Anna– I am an elopement and wedding photographer helping adventurous couples say “I do” on their own terms from coast to coast.

Anna is so sweet, caring, and a great communicator. As a wedding planner, it was great to work with her and she captured the beauty of the venue so well. The portraits and couple photos are stunning. Would definitely recommend her!

She took our engagement and wedding photos and we are blown away at her skills. All her photos turn out bright and beautiful, capturing every moment perfectly. My husband and I have different styles in photos but she took the time to understand our preferences and made sure to photograph everything just the way we wanted. We are very awkward in front of the camera and never know how to pose… but her instructions make it easy and seem like we are naturals. We 10000/10 recommend Madison as your wedding photographer.

I shoot mostly film, medium format and 35mm, as well as a little bit of digital, to create timeless imagery that ages gracefully. I am trained as a fine art photographer, studying at the School of Visual Arts in NYC, and SFAI. I live in Portland, OR but am happy to travel.

Traci and Bill, words cannot express how thankful we are to have met the both of you and have you two be our elopement specialist! You guys are professional, thoughtful, fun, and super laid back! The list can go on and on but you two are just amazing human beings! Jennie and I are so glad we stubbled across your website! From day 1, you guys made us feel at ease. There was never a point where we were stressed out (aside from thinking our tent was going to blow over the mountain with us in it LOL), you made sure our special day was everything we imagined plus more. After our initial zoom meeting there was no doubt in our minds that we wanted to elope and we wanted you two to help plan it for us. We all instantly connected, it felt like we were long lost friends who were catching up and getting updated on each others lives. Even though we started planning this a year out, you both made sure to check in with us periodically to see how we were doing. You sent us questionnaires to fill out so that you could really vision how we wanted our special day to go. These questionnaires were very intimate and really got us to think of how far we’ve come as a couple and everything we’ve gone through up until that point and how there were so many things we still wanted to do/explore together. Fast forward to a week out from our wedding day. You both knew that this was going to be our longest road trip yet departing from Toronto, Canada, to Moab, Utah (33 hours with our Tesla). You made it a priority to check in with us to see if we were ok from the day we left to literally 30 mins before our first meet up. In any other situation we might have been a little skeptical meeting up with random strangers at 2am, in a pitch-black parking lot, at the bottom of Corona Arch, in an area with no cell phone reception. This had horror movie written all over it lol but you guys made us feel so comfortable that it seemed like we were just meeting up with friends for a hike. Over the course of our multi-day elopement, you made it about us and everything we asked for. From candid shots to endless laughs, all captured on camera. It didn’t even feel like we were being photographed, it honestly felt like we were all hanging out and taking in the scenery together. This is why you two are amazing at what you do! You somehow manage to work and have fun at the same time! Traci and Bill, you two compliment each other so well! You both listened to what we wanted, were very thorough and detail oriented. Our elopement was so well planned because of the both of you and our video/photo gallery is breathtaking and worth every penny! We requested to have stars, mountains, hiking, and camping as part of this family vacation with our dogs and you guys delivered! We know so many people who got married and can’t remember their wedding day... We can’t say the same as Jennie and I can remember every second like it was yesterday thanks to you two! To any couple who is considering the elopement process, we 1000% recommend doing it with Traci & Bill! They exceed expectations! Sorry this review was so long but we truly wanted to show our gratitude to you guys! Words cannot express how thankful we are to have met the both of you and have you two by our side as we enter the next stage in our lives. We truly gained long time adventure friends! We wish nothing but the best for the both of you! Till we meet again, from our family to yours, THANK YOU! Mike, Jennie, Honcho, & Guapo.

My aim is to create a film that you can come back to for years to come. I want it to feel cinematic, but more than anything, I want it to feel sentimental. The shots that excite me the most are the candid moments with family, friends, and your fiancé. A little about me; In 2015, my journey into photography began when I bought a camera from a pawn shop. Now, after eight years, I've captured weddings, music videos, and a diverse array of corporate and social media content across the United States. It's been a journey of learning the art of storytelling through still images and video.

Kyle is wonderful. He has an incredible eye and the photos we received are perfectly edited and quick to land in my inbox. He's fun and easy to talk to and definitely makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera (normally something I'm very uncomfortable with). He has a wealth of ideas and is not afraid to help with poses and making sure you look amazing in each photo. I would HIGHLY recommend!

Hi, thanks for being here! Yes, my goal is to create beautiful images, but photography is so much more to me. My business is about cultivating value and connection with my clients. Did you know that you spend the majority of your time on your big day with your photographer?! That means you should be choosing someone that not only gives you the style and beautiful photos you're looking for but also someone you can really connect with. So if you're looking for a photographer that loves those natural, candid, movement based photos-- the kind of photos that tell a story? Then you're definitely in the right place!
