She brings such an amazing energy to every shoot and makes you feel right at home. Sasha has seen our family through so many stages of life. From wedding days to first family photos to post-baby boudoir. Her incredible talent speaks for itself, but her welcoming nature and badass boss lady energy is the icing on the cake. We truly love working with Sasha and getting to have her talent as a part of our family history. Feeling awkward in front of the camera? Don't worry, Sasha will make you feel like a natural-born model. Worried about logistics on your wedding day? Don't worry, Sasha has it down to a science. Feeling tired and worn out from being a new parent? Don't worry, Sasha will bring the light back to your eyes. Trust me, you won't regret working with Sasha. She is truly amazing.

And so....she was able to get the best picture poses of them. The engagement photos were beautiful and my daughter used them for the "save the date" cards she sent out ahead of the invitations. Jenny spent time with the bride and groom ahead of time to ensure there was good plan for the shots they wanted of the wedding and reception. On the day of the wedding Jenny did a fabulous job of working through getting all the family shots with such an awesome sense of humor and she got amazing candid shots of wedding party and guests throughout the day. Thank you Jenny - you are awesome!

She was wonderful, she has a way with kids to put them at ease and managed to get our family of 8 adults and 6 kids, all looking great in multiple shots in a very quick window of time that we had. Most surprising was by the next morning, she had delivered five of the prints to us via email so we could all see them while we were still together. I can't say enough great things about Life Really Photography and Anna Marie. Thank you for all your hard work and beautiful pictures.

First of all, both my fiance and I are awkward people. This meant finding a wedding photographer…read morewho could work with a socially awkward couple would be...difficult. Of course, we wanted perfect pictures...but we also wanted to feel comfortable with our photographer on our big day. After viewing many websites and contacting many photographers, we chose Siang and Lightphoria because of Siang's personality and his love for photography. Siang is easy to work with and listens to all your concerns and needs. We started off with a couple's session (aka engagement session) where we went around Seattle, taking pictures and breaking the ice. We turned these pictures into a guestbook, which ALL our guests adored and could not stop talking about!! Siang not only made sure he had good shots, but he took the time to develop a photographer/client connection (being socially awkward and all, boy did we take up a lot of his time). Seriously though, many photographers can take perfect pictures by working with lighting and the basic rules of photography 101. But only great photographers can capture those indescribable moments where one glance from the bride or that look in the groom's eyes captures feelings from that day. Siang has captured some of these "moments." When I look at my photos, I don't see just family and friends - instead, I see love, happiness, nervousness and joy. It is these intangible moments that Siang captures so beautifully. You won't be disappointed with Lightphoria or Siang if you ask him to freeze frame important moments in your life. We love him so much that we plan to have him at other special occasions in our life such as anniversaries, the start of our family and our children's birthday. Hopefully, our children won't be as socially awkward around cameras as Mommy and Daddy. P.S. Tell Siang that "DOMO" says hi!

Siang is amazing. On behalf of one of my best friends, whose wedding I was in as a bridesmaid, I…read morecannot begin to thank him for the moments he captured on her special day. Both the bride and groom love photographs, but were apprehensive of double chins, awkward faces and poses, as well as their first glance being captured on film. Siang knew just what to say, when to say it, and how to make everyone involved feel special and at ease. Siang was probably the only one who knew how to handle the devious flower girls and apprehensive ring bearers in the hot August sun. No double chins any where either! I've also had the pleasure of attending another wedding that Siang photographed. In both weddings the bride and groom felt like the photographs made their weddings seem that much more beautiful and fun! Nothing but rave reviews on his genuine, comfortable approach to wedding photography, not to mention the gorgeous shots. He also put together (possibly as part of the package, I'm not sure), slideshows and picked music for each one. This was truly a blessing as the wedding that I was in, the pictures came after the new groom was already deployed in Afghanistan. The pictures are beautiful reminder of their wedding and lifetime to come.

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.

From the moment we booked Alante Photography, he became such an invaluable part of our wedding process. He helped with recommendations, created a timeline that made everything run smoothly, and patiently answered all our wedding questions. It truly felt like he cared about our wedding as if it were his own, and that care shines through in every single photo.
