I don't even know where to begin, because this experience touched me in ways I truly didn't expect…read more From the very first message, Marissa made me feel safe, seen, and completely at ease. Walking into a boudoir session can feel vulnerable, but she has this rare gift of turning nerves into confidence and self-doubt into quiet joy. Every step of the process felt thoughtful and empowering. Marissa guided me gently, celebrated me loudly, and somehow captured versions of me I hadn't seen in a long time. The images are stunning, yes, but what matters more is how I felt during and after the session: strong, beautiful, and unapologetically myself. This wasn't just a photoshoot. It was a reminder of my worth, my softness, my power, and my story. Marissa doesn't just take photos, she holds space, builds trust, and creates magic with her camera and her heart. If you're even thinking about booking a boudoir session, let this be your sign. You will leave feeling transformed, uplifted, and so incredibly proud of yourself. I will treasure these photos forever, but I will treasure the experience even more.

I can't thank Marissa enough for the prepping, coaching, lunch and just everything. Overall 5 star experience.

As someone with very dark black Asian hair, getting blonde in one session is a trek but Yin is amazing at coloring and so talented. My scalp always feels squeaky clean and so soft.

Definitely worth the drive from Seattle. They also have another location in Bellevue.

My family and friends know that I almost always refuse to have my picture taken in just about any situation. Going to the photo session I was very apprehensive and a bit nervous. When I met Ali she told me what we were going to do and immediately put me at ease and had me smiling and laughing. Ali is a complete professional, someone who really cares. My pictures reflected her caring and her professionalism. I highly recommend Ali to anyone who wants a professional picture taken with terrific, outstanding results. She's wonderful!

She took the time to listen and was very patient, in recreating my vision I had of our son and making sure it was perfect. She incorporated it into a picture with our two girls. The first picture we have with all three kids, since we lost him when he was a baby and even before our oldest was even born and we could only imagine what he would look like now. She has made our heart complete and our dream come true. She is AMAZING!! I would highly highly recommend her and would definitely do business with her again. Again we can not say enough about her. Thank you again Ali for making our our hearts complete and making our vision a reality.

I was worried he might have "catitude", not engage and sleep through his photo session! Marika arrived a little early, and was able to capture Scout during he afternoon social/happy hour! Scout was intrigued in all the amazing sounds Marika made to communicate and it was such fun to watch Scout show her around our yard! The video she made for us truly captured the essence of Scout-and the depth of his wisdom, kindness and compassion in his eyes, and his social comings and goings! It is so worthwhile to have your pet's life captured by a professional animal photographer. We are so happy we met Marika and had her capture Scout's story for us!

Until I first saw her work, "pet photography" always seemed just like nice photos of the family pet. Marika's pet photos show off the personality, the heart and soul and the individuality of the pet.

And, especially if you have an older pet, consider that Marika's photos will give you a memory of that loved one that you will always treasure.

I've promised Tania from Azzura to write a truthful review for them because she had done so much…read moreand such a great job for our wedding photography on July 12, 2014! so... where do I start? In short: Choosing Azzura Photography as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we've made for our wedding, and the money were so well spent and what we got from them are so much worthy of the money! long version: we are a couple from China, I been here for 8 years and my fiancée has been here for 4 years. we knew each since 2012 and we decided to get married in July this year. And we decided to do a wedding in Seattle, where we knew each other and currently living. we could say we knew very little about how to plan and prepare for a wedding when we started in the beginning of this year (2014). we don't have families in US that could give us advice or share their experience. and we did not have close friends who got married in US either so we were basically did not how how to start! we went to the Seattle wedding show in Seattle convention center in January ( if I remembered it correctly) hoping to get a sense of how to plan a wedding ... but we ended up collecting a few gadgets/swags and a lot of brochures for all kind of services ... but we did not really got the essence of how we could started planning our wedding. and I wished I had stopped by Azzura's booth and got a chance talking to Tania at that time. if we had been able to hired Azzura earlier, then we would have a much easier job in our whole wedding planning. but anyway, we did not do anything after the wedding show, and we started finding a venue for our wedding at the end of February. after more than 1 months of searching , we did find our place, a nice church for the ceremony and a nice water front restaurant for our reception. but it was really stressful and a lot of comparisons and it was tough job. if we've hired Tania from Azzura before we started searching for a location, I am sure we would find a more "picture-perfect" place with her suggestion. anyway. after securing the venue, we started shopping for our photographer. we asked around our friends, and search online (from weddingwire, from yelp etc) , and called almost every studios from the wedding show catalog we've got. there were just too many choices - and some of them were booked at the date we chose, we ended up narrow down to 5 ~ 6 of them. and Azzura was in the shortlist. after we sent the links of their works to our various friends and family members to gather feedback, we got a lot more votes for Azzura - to quote some of our family members/friends' feedback - "Azzura's pictures tell the store vividly" , "I think Azzura has better sense of the whole surrounding for the picture", "look at the light, it feel so classy and so natural..." anyway, we talked to Tania over the phone, met with her once between we decided to hire her. I have to say, comparing to many photographers (including one who were from Hong Kong - considering as our own people) we've talked to, Tania just feel right and very professional. Tania is the co-owner of Azzura Photography Studio (another owner is her husband), they were both professional photographers before they met more than 10 years ago and owned their own studio already (it was a concern to me that some studio owned by a couple, only one of them are originally a photographer and the other just learned to do that under the coaching of the other) . Tania won a lot of awards with her own works. After we started working with Tania, we got so much help and advice from her. We are like from almost knew nothing and had no clue what the proceeding it would be like for our wedding to knowing almost every details. Tania told us everything, she suggested the timeline for us, shared with us a lot of connections and resources to choose from whenever we need a referral (and she was not concerned about whether we hire those or not - because her goal was to help us not to make money for her connections). Thank God we hired Tania! Everybody in our families love her! even the guest were very impressive by her. She came 15 minutes early in our wedding day and leave later then the time we have paid for. She is very energetic and ending up we getting so many photos in the hours of coverage we've paid for - which are so much more beyond our expectation! All of our guest are Chinese, and our whole wedding were carried out in Chinese; Tania were quite experienced with Asian wedding and that did not cause a problem to her (she told us that a high percentage of her clients are Asian). and of course ,the most important thing, we love our photos!!! Tania技术很好，拍出来的照片很自然，人物很好看，拍中国人的婚礼没有问题。谢谢！(Thank you!)
