Stephanie was a perfect fit for our wedding (and our engagement shoot), working with us to…read morecoordinate and personalize at every step of the way. We wanted a photographer who wouldn't be interested in the "cheese ball" shots and would best capture our personalities (we're weird enough when we aren't awkwardly posed). She worked well with a variety of crazy, loud, weird people to make our day look as magical as it felt. There is a small fee for paying with a credit card, so I do recommend having the cash funds available when you can.

Stephanie was a great photographer for our big day. When she found out we didn't have a wedding…read moreplanner during our initial consult meeting, she also gave us some great tips/hints, which led us to feeling a little less overwhelmed with it all. During that first meeting, Stephanie made sure to walk through the general look and feel of what she'd be doing during our wedding. We went over a pretty comprehensive list of family/group shots that we wanted, and she assured us that the day was going to be special. When she showed up for the day of the wedding, she was prepared and professional and definitely knew how to handle two anxious grooms who were running around making sure everything was good for the festivities. My partner and I just let Stephanie take the reins for how our photos were done, and I'm sure she would have preferred a *little* guidance, we're so glad we did, because her ideas were better than anything we could have come up with. Also, having that list of group shots was so important, because it made taking pictures with all of our family and friends fly by. As for the ceremony and reception, Stephanie was adept at blending in/not being noticed while capturing all the memories we could hope for. The pictures have been fantastic, and I don't know if there's a better person who can take two awkward guys, put them in what seem like awkward poses, and make beautiful pictures. Thank you so much Stephanie!

He was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend him.

We've recommended Keoni to our friends, and they've all had great experiences and beautiful pictures as a result. On a recent trip to Seattle, my wife and I were able to meet up with Keoni again and had him show us the best parts of the city. So cool that he was there to capture those places and eventful moments for us on camera. Wouldn't it be awesome to always travel with your own personal photographer! While in Seattle we were introduced to John at happy hour, great personality and I would imagine easy to work with as well. I wouldn't hesitate to have these guys shoot our next big event.

She's sweet, genuine, encouraging, and ambitious. We were really bad about setting a specific timeline for the day-of until the week before and Melissa was understanding and flexible with whatever needed to happen even with last-minute planning. She took nice family portraits for us and we had a blast taking our couples shots with her down on the beach. I'm a naturalist nerd and delighted in the fact that she is too, as we kept pausing to exclaim over beach-combing finds and incorporating things like sand dollars and peeling madrona bark into our photos. She did an excellent job balancing our requests for certain backdrops and types of shots with her own professional suggestions, and we couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out! She was extremely prompt with the turn-around. Sneak peeks the day after (!) and our whole portfolio just 2.5 weeks after! Wow! If you want someone who's a down-to-earth person AND a fabulous photographer, we highly recommend Melissa! We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

Shortly after booking my Autum photo shoot with Anastasiya, she contacted me right away. She asked me all the questions... What my vision was for the photo shoot,; backdrops, styling, wardrobe etc. she took the time to get to know me, and assured me that she would capture something memorable. At this point, I felt at ease working with her. On the day of the photo shoot, meeting her for the first time, was like meeting an old friend. Anastasiya is a ROCKSTAR! The photo shoot was so much fun! She made everything comfortable and took many, many photos! Her turnaround time was very quick. She sent me a couple teasers at first, then sent me a link to view all the photos that same week. They turned out awesome. She listened to me, she knew what I wanted, and she captured it. I reached out to her recently for a real estate staging project. Regardless of bad rainy weather, she came through! The photos she took turned out absolutely beautiful. I'm so happy to know Anastasiya. I support women owned businesses. I highly recommend her to my YELP! Community.

Ray has a true gift for capturing genuine moments. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and made us (and our three dogs--Odin, Freya, and Bentley) feel completely at ease. It's not easy to photograph a couple and a pack of spirited pups, but Ray pulled it off effortlessly. His attention to detail, creative direction, and calm presence turned what could have been a chaotic session into a fun and memorable outing. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful--natural, heartfelt, and full of personality. He managed to catch those little in-between moments that really reflect who we are as a couple and as a family. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only technically skilled but also kind, thoughtful, and passionate about what he does, we highly recommend Ray at Invenium Images Photography.
