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!

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

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

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

My style is rooted in an editorial approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that highlight genuine emotions. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

We're Hunter and Lindsey Wickert! We're a husband and wife photographer team based out of Vancouver, Washington! We love doing what we do best— we make your photos feel like your memories. Whether that means walking along the beach near Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach with you, snow-shoeing up at the foot of Mt. St. Helens for your Engagement Photoshoot, following you down the aisle in some of our gorgeous Pacific Northwest scenery, or playing in piles of leaves for your beautiful family photos and getting those magical shots. We want you to be able to look back at our work and feel exactly how you felt the moment we took them.

Lindsey and her husband are amazing. So far we've only done our engagement shoot and it was honestly so much fun. My fiance and I have never gotten professional photos taken so we were both a bit nervous but by the end of it, we felt like models. They are so lovely to talk to and not one moment felt awkward or weird. We had the wonderful opportunity to take our pictures at Mt. Rainer and the pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL. She did a fantastic job overall and even brought bug spray for us (my gosh the mosquitos were insane haha). We received our photos faster than I thought and with any change/adjustment I wanted to make she was on top of it. I'll be back after the wedding to share more, but I can't recommend her enough.

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.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of working with Jen on a styled shoot, and I cannot express enough how wonderful the experience was. From start to finish, Jen demonstrated a level of professionalism that truly sets her apart in the world of photography. First and foremost, the end result speaks volumes about Jen's talent. The photos she captured during our styled shoot were nothing short of stunning. Her ability to manipulate light, composition, and color is truly remarkable. Each image was a work of art, and I was left in awe of her skill as I flipped through the final gallery. Jen has a knack for capturing not just moments, but emotions and atmosphere, making her photos come alive in the most extraordinary way. What sets Jen apart even further is her clear and unique vision. It was evident throughout our collaboration that she had a well-defined style and a creative perspective that breathed life into our project. Her ability to conceptualize and execute her ideas is a testament to her artistic prowess. Jen's photographs have a certain magic to them, a distinctive quality that makes them stand out in a crowded field. Working with Jen was an absolute delight. Her friendly and approachable demeanor put everyone at ease during the shoot, fostering a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. It's evident that she genuinely loves what she does, and this passion radiates through her work. Jen's enthusiasm is infectious, and it was impossible not to have fun during our time together.

Hi! I am Courtney! Photography is my passion. I can't put into words how excited I am thinking about a session or a wedding. Giddy like a little kid in a toy store, I suppose! I love details. As small as the sparkling eyeshadow on the bride's eyelid for her special day. The tiny fingernails on a newborn's hands. All the giggles and laughs. Kisses and a loving glance. I want to document every little thing for you. Events and life, in general, can be so busy. I am based in Arlington, Washington, but I serve all of the United States and most countries. I LOVE to travel!

My heart beats for photographing a story worth telling, and finding the funny, quirky, moving little moments throughout that narrative.

I want to laugh throughout the whole day with you, making every moment so memorable and being right by your side to capture it. I want to keep in touch with you after, to see where life takes you!

Amiran is a fabulous photographer. We knew we needed someone who knew traditional wedding poses for all the family photos, but we really wanted more candid shots in both the wedding and the reception. She did not disappoint. She’s got the static shots with family, and the wedding party we needed - but the candid ones are the ones we fell in love with in our portfolio. She is professional and kept communicating with us throughout all the changes leading up to our wedding with the venue issues we had, and went with the flow that day. She made sure she had everything we were looking for, and made our day so simple. She even went along with my maid of honor who decided to play photo stylist at the end of the day! I cannot say enough about how perfect Amiran was for our wedding!

A wedding and engagement photographer but so much more than just that. I’m a friend, daughter, sister, momma to my beautiful baby girl Scarlette Rose, wife to one incredible hunk of a man, fur mom to one ADORABLE little Chihuahua, Pug, Great Pyrenees, and two ducks named Harold and Mushu (I WOULD DIE FOR THEM). I’m a hiker, lover of giddy laughs because your body can’t contain all the joy you’re experiencing, lover of love, meditation lover, crystal lover, people lover, tattoo lover, and most importantly…lover of personal growth and learning from this big classroom we call life! Without all these labels?

Ally shot our engagement photos in Yosemite and our wedding in Colorado. We initially hired her because we absolutely loved the spirit of her photos. Everyone was so happy and natural in her photos rather than stiff and posed. Little did we know- Ally puts a piece of herself into all of her photos. Her passion and love for what she does spills out of her- you can’t help but be happy while she photographs you. She truly, fully adores what she does and made us look like professional models by simply making us comfortable and ourselves. Even when she was extremely busy, even when we briefly stranded her in Yosemite in the middle of the night (separate story), we never heard her complain. EVER! She is a true professional, a wonderful human, a speedy fast shot, and the most talented photographer I have ever met. So, stop reading my review and HIRE HER NOW!

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.

Hey all you cute love birds!!! I am a Boise area photographer, BUT I LOVE to travel and would absolutely kill to travel for you! Okay, not literally kill but ya know. I would love love to travel for you! I am a wedding photographer, who specializes in elopements and intimate weddings! Do I still offer more traditional big weddings? HELL YES. My business is all about creating exceptional experiences! I want to make sure your day is so special, and that you get the images of your dreams! I try to stray from the traditional, and go for more fun, unique experiences! If you're looking for that, let's get this party started!!

I had seen Jordan's photos on instagram and fallen in love with their aesthetic. I've been in traditional posed wedding photos as part of the wedding party and family in the past and I just never look like myself in them. I cannot pose and get very self-conscious if I know my picture is being taken. But having candid moments from the day really meant the world to me and that is what really resonated with me in Jordan's style; the documentary feel. Beyond this, there is this incredible eye for lighting and angle and capturing just the right moment that this duo (because it is Jordan and her husband, Trent) brings that I didn't find in any other portfolio I went through when looking for a photographer. She was super patient and understanding when walking me through the process on our introduction and every other subsequent call leading up to the day. We weren't going to be using engagement photos for the traditional announcements, but I had this idea of a wonderful series of photos at this location on the island where we were having the wedding that we could have as kind of our own celebration of our engagement and they were instantly on board and agreed to come out the day before to do those photos at that time. It ended up being a really lovely time for us 4 to bond and get used to each other so I highly recommend doing some kind of engagement photo session even if you're a photo-averse person like myself and the thought of doing more photos seems like the last thing you want to do. Jordan and Trent are so calm and relaxed that it made it really easy to be natural around them. And then on the day they were absolute rockstars. We were, as is surprising to maybe no one but us, running super late and they very gracefully helped manage our extended families and the venue to keep the pressure off us while still getting everything done they could. We showed up to the venue with 20 minutes to the ceremony and we somehow managed to get all our family photos (with toddlers and blended modern family combinations in the mix) and still be only 5 minutes late on the ceremony start. Then we snuck away for sunset photos and that ended up being this absolutely beautiful time we got to spend together during the reception, not awkward at all. And I truly think that's because of how natural and talented this duo are at their jobs. They were like the most lovely and helpful guests at the wedding, truly like having friends who are photographing the day for you. They made the day exactly what I hoped for, this beautiful, cherished time spent with family and friends in a magical place celebrating being all together and I cannot imagine my wedding without them there. I don't have the full album yet, but I do have the engagement photos and an absolutely breathtaking sneak peek of the day and they are so beautiful I almost don't believe it. Hopefully I won't need another wedding photographer (hahahaha) but if I do need family photos for the future they will be my first call.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
