Your Love Story, Beautifully Told
Our Wedding Photography Style
Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most personal decisions you will make during your planning journey, and we are so glad you found us. We are a husband and wife wedding photography team based in Lake Stevens, Washington, and we have spent the last eight years documenting love stories throughout Snohomish County, Bothell, and the greater Pacific Northwest. With more than 200 weddings behind us, we have refined an approach that blends timeless editorial elegance with the warmth of candid, documentary storytelling.
Our style lives in the space between fine art and photojournalism. We love soft, natural light, earthy tones, and compositions that feel intentional without looking posed. During your ceremony we stay quiet and unobtrusive, capturing the tears, the laughter, and the stolen glances as they happen. During portraits we gently guide you into flattering light and give you simple prompts that bring out genuine emotion — the kind of images that still make you feel something twenty years from now.
Because we shoot as a two-person team, we are able to cover moments that a single photographer would miss. One of us is with the bride during preparations while the other documents the groom and groomsmen getting ready across town. During the ceremony, we capture two completely different perspectives simultaneously — the wide, sweeping angle of your venue and the tight, emotional close-ups of your faces as you exchange vows. This dual coverage is included in every package we offer.
What's Included in Your Wedding Package
We believe wedding photography should be straightforward and stress-free. Every one of our wedding collections includes two photographers, a detailed planning consultation, a personalized shot list, full editing of every delivered image, and a stunning online gallery where you can share and download your photos at any time. We do not believe in hidden fees or surprise add-ons.
Our elopement and intimate wedding package starts at $3,800 and includes up to six hours of coverage — perfect for couples planning a ceremony at a lakefront property on Lake Stevens, a quiet garden venue, or a courthouse celebration followed by dinner with your closest people. For larger celebrations, our full-day collections range from $4,500 to $5,500 and include eight to ten hours of coverage, an engagement session, a second photographer, and 500 to 800+ edited images. We also offer beautifully handcrafted albums and fine art prints for couples who want tangible keepsakes.

Your Wedding Day Timeline
A well-planned timeline is the secret to a relaxed wedding day and beautiful photographs. Over 200+ weddings, we have learned exactly how much time each part of the day needs so you can enjoy every moment without feeling rushed. Here is a general framework we recommend for a full-day wedding:
Getting Ready (1.5 to 2 hours): We arrive while the hair and makeup finishing touches are underway. This is where we capture the details — your dress, shoes, rings, invitation suite, and the candid moments between you and your bridal party. Meanwhile, the second photographer is with the groom documenting a more relaxed scene: cufflinks, a first look at the suit, and the camaraderie between friends.
First Look or Pre-Ceremony Portraits (30 to 45 minutes): If you choose a first look, this is one of the most emotional parts of the day and one of our favorite moments to photograph. We find a private spot, set the scene, and let the moment unfold naturally. If you prefer to wait until the ceremony, we will schedule bridal party and family formals during cocktail hour instead.
Ceremony (30 to 60 minutes): We position ourselves to capture every angle — the processional, the vows, the ring exchange, and the first kiss — without ever stepping between you and your guests. We pride ourselves on being invisible during the ceremony.
Couples Portraits (30 to 45 minutes): Golden hour is our playground. We will steal you away for a short walk — just the two of you and us — to create those stunning, magazine-worthy portraits that become the centerpiece of your gallery. For a deeper look at how we structure these moments, read our complete guide to wedding day timelines.
Reception (2 to 3 hours): Toasts, first dances, cake cutting, and the party. We move through the room capturing the joy, the details, and the candid interactions that make your reception uniquely yours.
Venues We Love in Snohomish County
Snohomish County is one of the most beautiful places in Washington to get married, and after photographing weddings here for eight years we have developed a deep appreciation for the diversity of venues in this region. Whether you are drawn to rustic elegance, vineyard romance, or waterfront serenity, there is a venue that fits your vision.
Hartford Winery in Bothell is one of our favorite spots for couples who want a vineyard setting without driving hours from the city. The grounds are gorgeous in every season, and the warm-toned interior of the tasting room creates a beautiful backdrop for intimate receptions. We have photographed multiple weddings here and the light during golden hour never disappoints.
Lakefront properties on Lake Stevens offer a completely different atmosphere — tranquil water views, private docks, and the kind of natural scenery that makes every portrait feel like a painting. Several private estates along the lake open their grounds for weddings, and we love working with couples who want a laid-back celebration right on the water.
Barn venues throughout Snohomish are iconic for Pacific Northwest weddings. Weathered wood, string lights, and rolling green fields create a timeless, romantic setting that photographs beautifully in both sunlight and rain. Garden venues in the area offer lush florals and manicured landscapes that feel like something out of a European countryside estate. And for couples who want drama, the mountain-view estates east of Lake Stevens deliver jaw-dropping panoramas of the Cascades that serve as a breathtaking ceremony backdrop.

We also offer cinematic wedding videography — book both photography and videography as a bundle for seamless, stress-free coverage with one team.
