Joseph Tobiason 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Ruston, WA

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.

Not your typical wedding photo + video team here. At Old Growth Photo & Film, we're not just a wedding photography and videography team; we're a circle of passionate and creative women who have come together for the love of the craft.

We fully support the queer community and put our values at the forefront of our business. This is no place for judgement or discrimination.

I have had the great pleasure of working with Kayla and Rochelle of Old Growth Photo Co on several weddings as a fellow vendor and on the other end of things when Kayla took really beautiful couple's portraits for me and my partner! I am always impressed by the way they interact with their clients, making them feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera. I also appreciate their communication and their ability to work seamlessly with other vendors, such as myself as a wedding makeup artist. I immediately get excited when I see my cients have listed them as their photographer or videographer as they are one of my very favorite vendors to work along side. It makes the wedding day run much more smoothly, and the end result is always stunning! Overall, I highly recommend Old Growth Photo Co to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer for their wedding. They truly go above and beyond to provide a positive experience and truly gorgeous photos/video.

Oh hello! I'm Janane and I'm SO excited to meet you! I'm a wedding + couples photographer and I'm inspired by warm, golden tones, while still staying true to color! As someone who used to HATE getting their photos done, I'll guide you through the whole thing! I'll tell you what to do with your hands and guide you through the posing to create the best images that feel like you! If you've never gotten professional photos done before, DON'T WORRY! I've got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so happy to find Janane when we decided to take engagement photos. Being new residents of Portland, OR, Janane was able to give us a bunch of great recommendations. It was also dead set in the middle of winter (Dec/Jan) in Portland, but she didn't deter us from taking engagement photos. Luckily, we ended up with one of the few days and time of the day when there was actual sunshine and no rain! The photos came out amazing. Janane gave us a bunch of pointers and tips to prepare. But she's respectful and made sure you're comfortable with the shoot. It was a fun hour with Janane! She has a great eye for photography. Outside of the photoshoot, Janane was responsive and communicative. We got our photos by the promise date. We would recommend Janane for anyone looking for an engagement or 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.

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.

Larissa is the sweetest and super easy to work with!! She is very professional, timely, and overall very organized. She has great communication and pays close attention to details(which is very much appreciated). The video she put together for us was 11/10 and wowed me more than I could have hoped. Her work is absolutely stunning. Anyone would be very lucky to work with her 3

To be perfectly honest, I love what I do. I'm damn good at it. I have dabbled in all sorts of jobs but I kept coming back to the camera. 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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Autumn photographed our wedding and absolutely knocked it out of the park! We're so thrilled with how the photos turned out. Autumn captured so much of the fun, emotion and positive energy of our day and we couldn't be happier with the results. Beyond being a talented photographer and artist, Autumn is also both professional and fun--a true delight to work with. She always communicated clearly and timely. She helped us (a couple of self-proclaimed awkward introverts) feel comfortable in front of the camera. And her joyful enthusiasm added to the happy energy of our wedding celebration. We loved working with Autumn and highly recommend her!

I work with Ari often (I'm a floral designer) and she's one of the few photographers that I will basically drop everything to work on a shoot, project or a wedding for. She has such a professional eye – great at framing her couples, a timeless style, and the moments look candid and natural yet elegant and polished at the same time. And she's down-to-earth and easy to work with! A lot of the photos highlighting my floral work come from Ari and they are the ones I use over and over. I love her work that much!!

We specialize in capturing the magic of your wedding day. We bring your memories to life with our lenses, turning every unforgettable moment into eternal keepsakes of your love story. We’re dedicated to making your wedding vision a reality. From the first consultation to the final photo delivery, we prioritize open communication and transparency. Whether it's helping round up family members for photos or guiding you on where to put your hands during portraits (it can be awkward, we know!), we’re here to make sure you get the best photos on your wedding day! Let’s create something beautiful together!

In May 2023, I began my search for a photographer. My significant other had just proposed and I was on the hunt for someone amazing. As time went quick, I eventually dedicated myself to researching all the local photographers I could find in Skagit County/near by areas. Among my search, I was looking for high quality and an aesthetically pleasing style of photos/editing. The search was long and tedious, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel… and my light was AK Photography. Alexis and Katrina are the best photographers in Skagit county. They do family photos, weddings, engagement sessions, and much more! AK listened to my SO’s and own ideas, and provided valuable information during our wedding planning. AK photography is informative, collaborative, engaging, easy to communicate with, and the best option compared to all others I met with. The mini engagement session was stunning and matched our vibe. Plus, photos were received back in lighting time! During our wedding (June 2024), they brought every emergency item you could think of and assisted with resolving any problems that arose. Having a large (160 person) wedding was chaotic to say the least. The presence of AK was exactly what we needed, and they are the best fit for a couple looking to get wedding photos taken. Compared to all other photographers, AK brought twice the power and 10 times the productivity. My husband and I would not have felt as comfortable during our wedding if we did not have AK Photography. We will be going back to AK for forever more, and cannot wait to schedule our next mini session! Thank you AK Photography! Your presence, friendship, and photography ability is the best thing we could have asked for! Amazing work and outstanding delivery!

Hello! With 'Memories In a Pocket' you’re investing in a photographer to document the moments and not just a perfect picture. The candids, the raw, the vulnerable parts of the day that you didn’t have the opportunity to witness. My wishes for your wedding day are to not only have a stress free experience so you can relax and focus on what matters most on your wedding day, but also to be able to look back at your photographs and relive each and every one of those love filled emotions.

Going into our engagement session we felt so nervous not knowing how to pose. Rosie made us feel comfortable, and the anxiety we carried was suddenly gone. It was fun, and it felt like a first date all over again; romantic, sweet, & dreamy. We forgot a camera and its photographer was in-front of us documenting our love story. We felt so comfortable with Rosie, and her way of directing us to pose was different & unique. She allowed us to be our selves. The photographs we received were so lovely, and are now hanging in our home as picture frames. Rosie without a thought was our first choice photographer for our intimate micro-wedding photographer. She delivered what she promised in a timely manner. I recommend Memories In a Pocket to all couples for any type of photoshoot!

The Lovers Wild

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!

I would 100% recommend Erin as an engagement/wedding photographer. Her work blew me away when I viewed her portfolio online, but it was our first phone conversation that really sealed the deal! She's down-to-earth and genuine while also being meticulous and thorough in the planning process. She understood the look we were going for with our historic-themed wedding and absolutely nailed it. I can't believe we booked her for the price we did and got such two astounding collections of photos! Can't wait to work with her again!

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.

Wow! Samantha is a spectacular photographer! She did beyond an amazing job with our engagement photos and wedding photos! She is well-organized, has an eye for detail, and is really easy to work with! We are amazed with our wedding photos and will cherish them forever! She captured all the special moments of our wedding from photos of getting ready, first look, ceremony, reception, and she truly captured the smiles, love, and happiness of our wedding. My husband and I enjoyed these cherished moments of our wedding and we couldn’t help but smile. She goes beyond from helping with every last detail from taking countless photos to include family and guests and ever got pictures of our horse.

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.

  • Serves Ruston, WA

Celebrating the wholeness of life and the perfection of love I truly ask you to "stay gold"! My beautiful clients are couples of all genders, orientation, and identities who have found each other and want this moment in time captured in heirloom quality. We leave the churches and the hotels and venture into wild world, up the mountains, to the islands, into the forests, and out into the deserts. Stay Gold Tyler delivers stunning portraits, family heirloom formals, and b-roll candids that will have you laughing and "aww"ing for a lifetime. Tyler splits time between South Florida, New York City, and Seattle.

We got married in the Hoh Rainforest in the Olympic National Park in Washington state. We chose Tyler because we hadn't been to the location before, and he was from the area. He guided us through the entire process, helping us find a beautiful place for the ceremony in the rainforest, and provided clear directions for getting there (it's 4 hours from the city, deep in the national park). He managed to keep us laughing even when it started raining. My husband and I can be awkward in formal photos, but Tyler helped us feel comfortable the entire day, and the results were absolutely stunning!

Here to help make your day stress-free, fun, candid, and full of laughs/smiles! I’ve been working in the wedding industry for 3 years now, with a bunch of happy couples. I take an organized but whimsical approach when I capture your day, taking moments as they come but prompting you as needed for a little extra touch. I offer a few packages for different needs and levels of coverage!

We worked with Chloe for both our engagement photos and our wedding. And like I said. I don’t even know what to say. We LOVE Chloe and she has been so much fun and so natural to work with. She’s been so collaborative with me with all my super specific inspiration boards () and produces nothing but beautiful work. We got married so recently and don’t even have our full gallery yet- the review photos are from our sneak peeks- but we already know that we will love the rest so much just as we’ve loved everything else. BOOK HER!!

I'm a photographer based in Boise, Idaho. I was born in California and when I was 7 years old, my family moved to Boise and we have been here ever since. Although I definitely miss the beach, I love to spend time camping and spending time at different lakes with family and friends. Not only do I love photography, but I am a book lover too. I fell in love with photography when I was in high school and started taking a photo class just for fun. After that, I knew that this was what I wanted to be doing.

Daniela Adrianna Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Daniela was extremely communicative, professional and sweet. She was prompt in responding to all of my questions and requests, and kept in close touch with me every step of the way leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Daniela followed my timeline perfectly and was able to capture all the important moments without being intrusive. The photos she delivered are absolutely stunning - clear, beautifully edited, and truly capture the joy and romance of our special day. Daniela's attention to detail and passion for her craft are evident in the final product.

Hey new friends! We’re Sam + Kyle elopement photographers splitting our time between the PNW and the SW in our RV. It takes a whole lot of badassery to make the decision to elope and we are very into that kind of energy. We believe in making memories and images that capture all of the big feelings, and the in-between moments that you want to relive over and over again. You know, the kind of photos that hang on your wall and make ya smile real big because you remember exactly how you felt in that moment. We are so glad that you’re here and can’t wait to run wild with you.

Sam and Kyle make an incredible creative team! We got in touch with them after a surprise elopement and were interested in them shooting our reception party. They excel in the elopement category as I am sure you can see from their epic portfolio, but they were just as amazing through the entire process and day of our reception. As with many couples these past few years, we needed to postpone our party for a year and a half before we could gather safely. Sam and Kyle kept in contact regularly and let us know we weren't alone. They provided some amazing guides and so much support while we worked through the challenges of planning throughout a pandemic and busy schedules. They have put so much thought and time into every aspect of their business and making sure their clients have a comfortable and beautiful experience when they work with The Dropped Pin. They encouraged us to sit down intentionally and to find time to go through the questionnaires together and it ended up making for some beautifully connected moments for me and my partner in the midst of everything else. This was all just in the lead-up to the day of! Sam and Kyle were punctual and showed up with plenty of time to get a lay of the venue while everything was still quiet. Like any "well-planned" event, everything ended up being behind schedule. This didn't phase Sam or Kyle, they just kept smiling and keeping everyone at ease, they truly did make herding cats look effortless! Now for the really good stuff, the photos. OMG, THE PHOTOS! Stunning. Breathtaking. Flawless. They were prompt with a sneak peek and final delivery and we are still taken aback at what they were able to capture. Having Sam and Kyle as a part of our day was the best decision we ever could have made. Friends are obsessed with them and the photos they took so I really hope we will get an excuse to work with them again one day!

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 has shot photos of every single important event in my adult life and we are always SO happy with the result! She is amazing at what she does, from my wedding to baby shower to maternity photos to family photos with a 1 year old! Her photos are flawless and edited beautifully. She brings out the best in everyone when she shoots and makes you feel so comfortable. We recently had to move out of state and had to go to another local photographer and it was a nightmare, for the first time we didn’t get to shoot with Becky and we missed you terribly! Consider yourself lucky if you can ever shoot with Becky G!

Hi I'm Halley I’m a couples, wedding, and elopement photographer based in San Diego, Big Sur, and Seattle, but I’m ready to follow you anywhere! I was born and raised in the PNW, I’m 28 years old, I have a husband and 2 puppies who I love with my whole heart. I’m an extroverted introvert who loves all-night brewery hangs just as much as home game nights, and my love languages are words of affirmation and sushi.

Halley Vernon has been one of favorite photographers to work with. From the beginning Halley was super informative and considerate to make sure I was well prepared for the wedding we were both going to be working. Super professional yet very intentional. When it came to the wedding day, Halley was on top of it. Making sure we stayed on schedule and capturing every detail they requested. Not only that but Halley really pushed my creativity to capture photos in different angles that I wouldn't have ever thought about. I highly recommend Halley for your big day!

As a kid it never dawned on me that my obsession with polaroid film, disposable cameras and old family photographs would lead me to being a full time wedding photographer, but here we are and boy do I feel lucky. So who the heck am I? I'm the kid who sat next to you in your high school art class that was WAY too excited for our next project. I'm that friend who loves to laugh till they cry over a silly Parks and Rec meme. I love meeting new people (and will totally hug you the first time I meet you!) and I'll be the old lady who is pretty darn proud of every wrinkle that came her way from smiling way too much.

Jennifer is kind, talented, and so much fun to be with! Her work is absolutely stunning, and I recommend her to everyone!
