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!

PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

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.

Hi there, I'm Rhiannon (you know...like the Fleetwood Mac song) My job is literally a dream. Getting to do what I love while celebrating with incredible people. Getting to see your day unfold and documenting it so you can relive all the emotions you felt in that exact moment again and again... Like, how is this real life? You are not just my clients. I literally call you my "couple". That means something to me. I personally invest myself in you, your story, your love, your dreams & your vision. Basically I will 100% cry at your wedding.

I had a May 2023 wedding in central WA. Rhiannon took away that stress of finding a wonderful photographer. I am super picky about how photos are edited. I spent day after day trying to find a photographer that I liked. Something about Rhiannon kept me going back to her page. She was totally transparent on pricing, advice, AND she even sent over a whole wedding album who had dogs in their wedding, since I was having my pups in mine, and was worried about motion pictures. She made my day so perfect, and helped with the timeline of everything. She also helped keep me on track on the day of my wedding, since I was unable to afford a wedding planner. She continues to reach out to her clients, even after the wedding, just to check in. I’m so grateful to have picked such a fantastic 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.

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!

I was raised in the Pacific Northwest and have lived here for basically my whole life. I fell in love with photography and it’s ability to make time stand still. It has allowed me to meet so many new people and discover so many new places that it has truly become my dream job. I have two littles, and two doggos, and a wonderful and supportive husband. I have made the Seattle area my home for over 10 years now. My passion other than family and photography, is traveling. I want to see everything this world has to show me.

Samantha is an incredible photographer! I've hired her to be my second photographer at weddings twice, and a third time to assist me when I had a wedding in my third trimester. She works cohesively with my team, is super supportive, dependable, always on time, and genuinely cares for both myself and our couples and ensures that the day runs smoothly and that the couple has the best possible wedding day. Highly recommend her!

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’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

From the very first moment I met Kiersten, I knew she was the perfect choice to document our wedding. Her warm and engaging personality made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of our special day. The way she captures the essence of a moment is nothing short of magical. Her romantic style effortlessly highlights the love and joy shared between us and our guests. Each photograph tells a beautiful story, filled with emotion and grace. We were especially impressed by her ability to capture candid moments, turning fleeting seconds into cherished memories that we will treasure forever. Her attention to detail and genuine passion for their craft are evident in every shot. Whether it was a quiet, intimate exchange or a lively dance floor scene, she managed to capture every moment. In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning, romantic images but also add a touch of warmth and personal connection to your wedding day, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiersten. She is truly one of the sweetest souls.

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.

Going into wedding planning and knowing absolutely nothing, Heather became my life saver. She had so much insight on planning and great ideas for photographs. She continuously touched base with me helped guide me through everything

DESTINI! She is an incredibly kind and talented photographer and we were blessed to have her on our wedding day. She brought along a second shooter, Nate, who was just as much fun. They ensured they captured what we wanted and captured things we didn't even think of. We're so thankful for Destini and Nate and the amazing work they do. We'll definitely be reaching out to them for future photos. 3

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.

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!

Hi, I'm Victory! I'm a professional photographer based in University Place, Washington. I've been behind the camera for over 8 years and captured countless stories. I LOVE love and every day I feel so blessed to have a business that constantly allows me to celebrate and appreciate it with each of my couples. My goal is that the photos from each wedding are organic and true to each unique couple that I work with.

Victory was wonderful to work with! She had great communication throughout the planning process, which was highly appreciated. The photos she captured were light and beautiful, perfectly conveying the joy and excitement of the day. Victory was very professional but also knew how to keep things fun and relaxed for the couple. I would highly recommend Victory to any couple looking for a talented and communicative wedding photographer.

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!

Hi! I'm Jacie. A Spokane-based wedding and lifestyle photographer – At home, you can usually find me chain drinking cups of hot tea while editing photos, attempting to stay warm in my robe and wool socks, hiking like a basic Pacific Northwester, or coloring with my sassy toddler.

I found out about Jacie because she took photos for my sisters wedding. She was the first vendor I hired because she does amazing work and has one of the best personalities. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable when we are not the most comfortable in front of a camera. I cannot recommend her more. She was clear in her communication the entire planning process and put my mind at ease. Everyone said how amazing she was at being able to be in so many places at once capturing all the amazing moments. Pictures are forever and I trust no one other than Jacie to capture them for me and my new family.
