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 taking pictures. Your wedding photographer is in your personal space on one of the most hectic but thrilling 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’ve been married once before and absolutely hated my first wedding photos so I was hesitant to hire a photographer. But when Jen showed up, she was extremely professional and super kind. She asked all the right questions before and on the wedding day and I fully trusted her to be able to do our pictures. When we got all of our photos back I was beyond ecstatic to see how well they turned out. She definitely captured us so well and the feel we wanted.

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.

My fiancé and I worked with Kate for our engagement pictures and couldn’t be happier. We were both hesitant to do engagement pictures but Kate made it so easy. Communication and setting up a time and location were a breeze. She suggested we pick locations that were meaningful to us. We went with two of our favorite spots in our neighborhood (Ballard locks and the Farmers’s Market) with the hopes of capturing some of the gorgeous fall colors and all the water in the area. Kate heard us and delivered! Most importantly, she took two awkward subjects, who aren’t crazy about being the focus of attention, and made us look good! She gave just the right amount of direction so we weren’t flailing which allowed us to relax. The pictures really captured “us” as well as all the colors and background we had talked about. Exactly what we wanted! Thank you, Kate. Next up, family pictures with our fur baby. :)

My husband and I chose Betty to document our wedding day and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Betty was so easy to work with and professional, guiding us through the photography plan and details with utmost care. Planning the wedding ourselves wasn’t easy, but we never had to worry about the photography with Betty as our vendor. She was always on top of communication, getting back to us in a prompt, friendly manner with clear information. She also accommodated a space change at our venue just days before the wedding. Betty’s images of our special day are simply breathtaking. We love the compositions, color, emotions, and how thoroughly she captured each part of our wedding. On the night of, we received a preview gallery to share with family & friends that evening which was fantastic. When it came time to view the complete set, we were struck with joy, and our guests had highly positive feedback, too. I know we will treasure these photos for a lifetime! We also worked with Betty on our album design which turned out stunning. We were in awe of her quick turnaround on the layout work. The process of reviewing and refining each spread was so fun and professional! We absolutely recommend Photography by Betty Elaine for anyone looking for an incredible, experienced photographer. Betty’s talent is a true gift, and we can’t thank her enough.

I’ve always been that girl who absolutely hates being left out of a good time. FOMO, amiright?! Weddings are sort of an extension of that for me. I want to be there to capture every bit of the fun, excitement and overwhelming, heartfelt joy. I work hard to get to know my clients, expecting that by the time your wedding day rolls around, you’ll consider me a friend. You’ll know me and I’ll know you and when I show up on the big day you’re both simply going to think… Hey, my friend Amy’s here. Awesome! Because the truth is this: It’s much easier to relax in front of a camera when you know there’s a friend you trust behind it.

Amy of Amelia Soper Photography couldn't have done a better job photographing our wedding. We adore the photos she took! Amy is reliable, professional and an excellent communicator. She connected with us just the right amount before, during and after the wedding. Our wedding package included an engagement shoot and we were nervous as it was our first professional photoshoot, but Amy helped us feel relaxed and ourselves and she captured genuine emotion that made for sweet, memorable photos. She is very experienced in photographing weddings and it shows in her shots, not to mention that she seemed to have captured multiple angles of the same moments during the ceremony without anyone noticing her movement! Choosing Amy for any of your photographic needs will be a good choice!

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
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see. The only minor feedback would be that for the large group photo that was requested prior to the wedding (all 75 guests in one group picture after the ceremony) wish there had been more directions given to guests to follow (using the mic that I had offered for directions to be shared aloud) how to come together / move around in an organized and efficient way that would work for the pictures. But overall, it has been a great experience working with Isaac for these past several months and we are very happy with his work that captures the moments of our special day in a soft and hear-warming manner.

My style is rooted in a editorial and documentary approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that capture genuine emotions. I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. 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
I absolutely recommend Lucia for any photography needs - my fiance and I had such a great time during our engagement session. Neither one of us had ever had professional photos taken of us before, so this was new for both of us. Lucia made it feel easy - but most importantly FUN! She was super helpful in picking a location and time that worked best for our needs and style as a couple. She also asked if we had any preference for particular poses, which at the time we didn't, so we followed her lead and absolutely loved the way the photos turned out. We are so excited for our wedding day, and the memories that will be captured beautifully by Lucia.

Jenny...was awesome. That's an empty term these days. Costco gas is "awesome." Bottomless fries are "awesome." Seinfeld reruns are "awesome." No shade here -- nothing wrong with any of those things -- but that's not the meaning I'm trying to invoke. Jenny wasn't "awesome." Jenny...was *awesome.* She was professional: punctual and capable, organized and efficient, commanding when she needed to herd wayward in-laws and subtle when she needed to melt into the background. She was experienced: brimming with knowledge and advice when asked, but respectful of our goals and quick to pivot to facilitate our vision. She was artistic: keen-eyed and creative, nerding out over the possibilities afforded by every corner of our venue, a wizard with pixels and colors and light. But more than that, Jenny was warm. My wife and I would have been satisfied if she'd just been a killer photographer, and we'd walked away with dynamite pictures. Jenny? Jenny gave us SO much more. She was patient. She was funny. And she was exactly what we needed: her easy rapport with even the most oddball and camera-shy among our motley crew worked absolute wonders to make the smiles real and the day what it was. The stress just evaporated around her. I'm the third among my siblings to get married, and the second lucky enough to work with Jenny as a photographer. So I've seen her in action twice: once when I was an officiant, and once when I was the groom. And both times, she completely blew me away. So, with confidence, I say: Jenny is awesome.

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

I believe a camera is the perfect tool for capturing bright, colorful, and deep moments from bright, colorful, and deep people, and I have spent over 10 years using my skills to do just that. My favorite subjects are couples and high school seniors, and I am thrilled to help preserve the love, smiles, winks, and glittering futures I see on the other end of my lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are recently engaged or thinking about getting married in Las Vegas or maybe out in the desert you want to elope - either way Jamie is your person! She is beyond talented and is very well connected in the area so vendor assistance is a huge plus because she can help you and give you tons of recommendations. Her artistic and fun ways of capturing your true self is perfect. She will help you capture your intimate moments, the ones you will remember and laugh at, or even take you to a tattoo shop and capture the memories that last forever. Whatever crazy, fun, unique idea you have your day - she will help you accomplish it your way. I would 100% recommend Jamie for all things for your wedding, elopement, after party - she is the best for it all!!! She is absolutely amazing in low lights as well. We hired her for our Happily Ever After Party that we held at Virgils Las Vegas and it was dark and she killed every picture. She really made our evening with friends and family the best night I could have asked for. I asked for a lot of candid shots of everyone enjoying the evening and she did exactly what I wanted. The number one thing I would recommend is when she asks for your shot list - spend time giving her exactly what you want - even if that means holding off on completing the questionnaire until closer to your day so that you can make sure you capture everything you want. She 100% uses her shot list to work off so it will be important. Also she is a huge plant fan and great person. We had never met her before our day and I can tell you we connected with her more than we expected. We can’t wait for the future so we can go back to Vegas and shoot our anniversary shots with her at the Neon Museum - because she freaking kills it every single time!

Hey! I'm Sharlee, an adventure & pet-friendly elopement photographer based in Oregon. I have a background as a vet tech+ I'm an avid lover of hiking, camping, climbing, or anything outside. I am passionate about helping couples feel empowered to “break from tradition and create a wedding of your own” Whether that's exploring a new place together, cuddling in a cabin, or sharing a favorite food - I want your wedding day to feel authentic to YOUR relationship and what makes elopements so special. Being able to provide you with a fun, enjoyable experience & beautiful images that look like your own piece of art is what makes me beam.

Our experience with Sharlee was everything we could have hoped it to be, if not so much more. To start, we wanted our ceremony to be in Utah, which was a challenge in itself being that we live in Oregon. Sharlee knew all the steps to take to make sure we could have photos at our ceremony in the location we wanted, including what permits were needed (which seemed like the most daunting of tasks). She was also great about asking us what our vision was for our ceremony so she could get the best photos possible, and she really delivered on getting those photos. I mean, WOW. To start, the moments she captured are the moments we'll want to look back on, so many years from now. From us getting ready, to the ceremony, to cute moments after the ceremony and everything in between, she caught it all. She even made on-the-fly-adjustments to make sure we got the perfect photos when things didn't go quite to our original plan, and did so in such a professional and smooth way that you almost would have thought she expected it to begin with. We received a preview gallery in the midst of our honeymoon, which made it feel that much more special, and the photos are AMAZING. The photos combined with her editing style are beautiful and timeless, and I know they will be something we lovingly look back on for the rest of our lives. We absolutely made the right choice on who to hire for our big day and will be greatly appreciative of what she did for us for our the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend her highly enough for your big day, as I know you'll be ecstatic as we are about our photos.

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!

Courtney photographed my daughter's wedding and I cannot say enough good things about her. As the mother of the bride, I was very involved (maybe a little too involved my daughter said) and I had many questions, and it was important to me that we had everything in order. I was able to set up a call and communicate with Courtney before the wedding and I felt such ease on the day. I went to her with a problem and she easily came up with a solution. She was present, aware, and there ready to capture whatever unfolded. She was easy going and simply a pleasure, helping any way she could. The whole family and the guests were impressed and kept going up to her and thanking her for a job well done. I cannot wait to book her for annual family photos now!

I believe in remarkable experiences, genuine relationships, and authentic imagery. Connecting with couples, having fun, and documenting love in a meaningful, honest way is my passion. And, those fleeting, raw emotions that happen only on your wedding day? Those are what I live for. Whether it's the tearful exchange of vows between you and your person or the excitement of celebrating with your loved ones on the dance floor, I capture the moments you'll want to relive and allow you to experience the sentiment of your day all over again.

From the first connect I had with Carley, I knew she would be our wedding photographer. Her style is incredible, she's incredibly easy to talk to and work with and she genuinely wanted to capture our love in such a special way. After having initial anxiety about how we'd look in our engagement photos, it took all of 30 seconds to feel comfortable with her process. She produced the best pictures I've seen of my husband and I and we will cherish them forever. I simply cannot recommend Carley enough - everyone at the wedding also raved about her. We adore her and the photos she's given us to commemorate our favorite day.

We hired Empowering You for our wedding and it was obvious that we made the right decision as soon as the photographers walked in the door! She is professional, on time, stays on schedule while being flexible, creative, easy to work with, and brings amazing energy!! The second photographer was just as kind and talented. She is not afraid to help position and pose you to get beautiful photos. She works great with children- our niece (flower girl) basically followed her around all afternoon pretending to help take pictures.

Booking Ashley for our engagement and wedding photos was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. She is simply the best of the best. My husband and I were really nervous to have our engagement photos taken, but as soon as we were in Ashley’s presence, those fears disappeared because of how calming, professional, and easy going she is. She guides you in a way that feels so natural, making every shot she takes **chef’s kiss**. On our wedding day, Ashley went above and beyond her role as a photographer. She’s insanely talented and perfectly captured one of the best days of my life in such a magical way. But beyond her incredible eye that captures all of your special moments, she is also the kindest, most thoughtful human and helped in ways I never expected. Forgot to plan transportation to a second photo location at the venue? Ashley volunteers to drive my husband and I, not batting an eye that my dress made a complete sparkly mess of her car. Bustle on your dress breaks during your reception? No worries, Ashley somehow appears out of nowhere with a zip tie to fix it. Long after our wedding was over, family and friends still talked about how much they loved our wedding photographer. Do yourself a favor and book with Ashley. I promise you your entire home will be filled with Ashley’s photos when you receive your gallery back and you’ll look back on the best day knowing you had the best photographer out there.

I’ve been photographing intimate weddings in Ohio + beyond for the last 10 years - there’s nothing I don’t know about getting hitched, and nothing I don’t love about it.

Kayla will make you feel comfortable and gorgeous!! Not only did we love working with her, we love the images that hang in our home! Cannot recommend enough!!

Kendra was a life saver the day of the wedding and she was running the show all by herself! Not only did she manage to keep everyone on task and on the time line but she captured beautiful shots of the whole day. I would have been lost without her direction that day and she had fun with it! She made friends with not only the bridal party but also our guests. I would highly recommend having her be a part of your special day, she will keep everyone calm and remind you to have fun!

She took everyone's safety seriously but also brought so much fun and light which was needed for me-- a stressed out bride. Working with her felt like working with an old pal. Communication was reliable and responsive. We got our photos so quickly and they were stunning. She put us at ease on our big day. She's incredibly talented. And she's a delight to be around.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, I’ll save you some time and introduce you to Heather! From day 1, Heather made us feel comfortable and at home, something we were so impressed with. During our engagement photoshoot, she provided us fun little games to get in the groove and captured special moments that we couldn’t have dreamed of. We were so excited to show off her work to family and even more excited for her vision on our wedding day. Leading up to then, she exceptionally communicated to us logistics and shot planning. She was very flexible and scheduled several meetings to really flush out our desired photos. Heather provided unique guidance that made preparation easy, especially with coordinating with our wedding planner. On our wedding day, we worked with Heather and Sihan, her second photographer. We also worked with Alex Yuan and Ben for videography. The whole team was a joy to be with, naturally guiding us and capturing candid moments we shared with our bridal party. Because of all the planning, the bridal party shots and family shots went very smoothly. Most importantly, we were blown away with our final photos. We were amazed by Heather’s dedication to her clients, providing us with so many perfectly crafted pictures. She also remained patient for months after the wedding, working with us to get our wedding album details in place. We could not be happier with the moments she captured on her camera, photos that we love to share with family and friends. Alex did a great job with video as well, even providing us with a trailer video while he edited the main video. We loved the cinematic take on our wedding day, painting a picture of both the intimate moments at the start of the day to the fun times in the evening. We would 100% recommend Heather and team for your engagement and wedding. Speaking from experience, they will seamlessly work with you to capture your special day and help share those memories for years to come!

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

We booked Jennifer for our wedding set to take place in Nov 2022 because her photos were moody and gorgeous. She was the only photographer that my now-husband Alex and I could agree upon when looking through portfolios. Jennifer absolutely blew us away when she did our engagement shoot, we had a hard time believing she could one-up it for the wedding. But in true artistic fashion, she did, and we are so blessed to have found her. Not only was she so easy to work with, but she was incredibly accommodating when we had to suddenly move our wedding due to a severe family emergency. We can’t say enough about her, honestly. But my husband and I both agreed that we will be flying her out wherever we are every life milestone from here on out. Do yourself a favor and just book her!

Hi, I’m Hannah. I’m a lover of art, stories, and spark—the perfect alchemy to creating and capturing all those memory-making, magical moments. Weddings, to me, are about your unique narrative, your origin stories and your threads of connection; the ways in which you’ve woven a love through a tapestry of compassion and inspiration and all that makes you you— both as individuals and as a couple. That’s the fabric of the photo, the material I like to work with; because of this, my photos lean atmospheric and candid.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah (the photographer) was kind, a calm presence, flexible with her schedule, and a great "fly on the wall" photographer. We loved that she was able to be present for a lot or a little of our big day, and that she got great photos without it feeling rushed or invasive. She was excellent at taking shots without blocking peoples view or interrupting sweet and poignant moments. She was also easy talk to in person and by phone, very professional and punctual, and was clear about the time she would need to take the photos we wanted. I loved most of her photos, but I have her an overall 4 because a few of them were in a style I don't love: the overexposed, pale, old fashioned looking style. If that is what you're into, though, Hannah is the perfect photographer for you and it will be 5 stars all the way!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Wickerts Photography is an amazing option for natural and light photos. I was amazed by how perfectly the photos were edited, as well as the kind energy put in by Lindsey. She was sure to get all the photos that I needed while making sure the couple was comfortable.
