I'm incredibly happy that we did as he was not only an excellent photographer, but he was prompt, helpful, and incredibly flexible. We never went more than a day between communications and he guided us through the entire process in the weeks/months leading up to the big day and our engagement shoot. The day of he showed up prompt and looking classy and then the rest of the night he seemed just one of the guests. We had preview photos the very next day and about two weeks later we received a package from him with everything and then some. We still have the mugs in our cabinet.

I was most impressed with how they juggled our crazy relatives. We had a delicate family situation with some big personalities, and Joe effortlessly walked the line between "getting what we wanted" and not ruffling feathers. He was in command without being commanding, was flexible yet faithful to our requests, and moved us through the picture process with poise and a positive disposition. If you have crazy family, you could not do better. During the ceremony he was a ghost. I can't actually remember him or Erika being present, yet the photos from that moment are equally parts intimate and sweeping. He captured it all--the guests, the wedding party, the vibe and the reception. We had a killer dance party following the festivities, and they were unafraid to get into the mix. Those are my favorite pictures from the night, and Joe and Erika were an unobtrusive team that captured it all. Can't say enough. The price was right, we found a package that fit our needs, and we will treasure the photos our entire lives.

If you are in search of the best Seattle (and greater) area wedding photographer, stop searching…read moreright now and hire Chris. I'm serious. My fiancé and I started our search for the best photographer pretty early on in our wedding planning process. Chris came highly recommend by a co worker of mine and immediately after seeing Chris' work and meeting with him over a beer, we knew he was the best fit for us...and boy did he blow our expectations out of the water! We decided to do an engagement session with him, and we had a blast! We appreciated his calm yet direct cues when we just didn't know what to do with our hands! He has an incredible eye and we trusted him fully to guide us around and tell us what to do and the end product was magic! So when it came time for our wedding day, we had complete faith he would make us look our best and get us the best photos. We knew everyone in our family and bridal party would feel at ease with Chris as well, and they all instantly realized why we had hired him! Chris is a ninja with the camera, you don't even notice he's there sometimes. We were able to just relax, be ourselves and enjoy our day and he blended in seamlessly. But also kept us smiling with his sense of humor and positive presence! A couple days after the wedding Chris delivered 40+ sneak peak photos! When we received our full gallery, we felt like we were truly re living the best day of our lives through the photos. The day literally came alive through each carefully selected and edited image. You can feel the love radiating from every single photo. Every day more and more people tell us how incredible our photographer was and we just smile and say "we know". Even those who weren't at our wedding tell us they can tell just how special and love filled our day was through the photos. A 5 star rating will never be adequate enough for Chris! Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions you make when planning a wedding and it can be overwhelming, but trust me when I say you will never regret going with Chris. We look forward to keeping him in our lives as our designated family photographer going forward!

If you are looking for a photographer who perfectly balances artistic talent with incredible organizational skills, I cannot recommend her enough. Anna's communication is top-tier. We began coordinating months in advance, and she was proactive every step of the way. She acted as much more than just a photographer; she was essentially a creative director. She curated various styles and locations to help me find the perfect vision, assisted with dress selection, and even organized hair and makeup. During a busy and stressful time, having Anna manage the logistics and timelines was a huge relief. During the session, she made us feel completely comfortable and at ease, which truly reflected in the final images. The photos turned out exactly as I had envisioned -- actually, they were even better. Anna has a gift for capturing the moment perfectly. We were so impressed with the entire process that we have already booked our newborn session with her!

That's when we found ARBR Pictures. I happen to see some pictures taken by Amanda, photographer and owner, and I knew right away she would be perfect. I loved her pictures and how she made ordinary things, places, events, look artistic and seemed to really capture their essence. I do not profess to be an artist, but I have a very good eye and taste. I knew our two little girls would love her. it is always hard to get our girls to warm up to a photographer in such a short time. We know this because we have tried places like Yuen Lui, The Picture People and other very good photographers, but I knew my girls would love Amanda. Sure enough they were all over her and were practically performing for her as she spent time with them throughout our home taking tons of pictures of them in their natural setting and daily life. We were very pleased with the final product - we got a beautiful picture book, a DVD with all of the pictures she took and in a year or two we will have to have Amanda back again for another session with the girls. It is always kind of awkward having a stranger going throughout your entire house taking pictures, but with Amanda it felt like just having a friend over who also happens to be a fabulous photographer. Now we will always be able to go back even years from now and see our beautiful little girls in their picture book thanks to Amanda.

They tailored their pricing, service package to meet our needs at a price that was very reasonable. But onto the good stuff: we love our highlight video. The night we got it, we watched it three times. The highlights alone was worth every penny we paid. We showed our highlight video at our second reception back east and received so many compliments. Being able to relive our big day, especially when it goes by so fast, is something we will cherish forever. Thank you Amanda and Brandon!

He's not only a wonderful photographer but he has amazing interpersonal skills and instantly put me at ease. He definitely knows his craft and how to make anyone look their best using his knowledge of angles and lighting. He made sure to ask what I wanted my photos to convey and then gently (and humorously!) coached me so that the photos had the intended impact. I'd recommend him to anyone for pretty much any occasion - he's a true artist and collaborator and you can't go wrong. I'll also mention that I REALLY appreciated Sung's attention to maintaining Covid protocols. My photos were taken prior to the vaccine availability and he gave me a short questionnaire before I entered the studio, kept the patio door propped open for ventilation, had a humidifier on since humid conditions help to prevent Covid spread, and wore a mask for the duration. I also observed him beginning to wipe everything down as I was heading out so I know the next person was welcomed into a clean and sanitary space by someone who not only cares about making you look your best but also cares about keeping you as healthy as possible. Above and beyond. Sung Park is a gem.
