Tell us about your business!
We are a husband + wife photography team in Seattle! I (Breanna) have been shooting for over 10 years, and the last 6 years have been mainly weddings and families! Kevin and I met our freshman year in college and got engaged in 2016. Since then, we’ve shot all of our weddings together, and just had our 100th wedding at the end of 2019!
Why did you want to get into the wedding industry?
Your wedding is one of the best days of your life, and probably the biggest party you will ever throw. To be a part of so many “best days” is such a blast, and we couldn’t ask for better jobs. Also, the vendors we get to work with are one of a kind, and coming together to serve our couples is so rewarding.
What makes your company stand out?
As a husband and wife team, our couples know that we have been in their shoes. We have so much experience working together as a team, and can capture the day well because we know what one another is focusing on! We are there to help the day go smoothly, and capture the moments as they come!
Tell us about your personal style when it comes to your craft!
When we are shooting engagements or weddings, we have a good balance of helping direct the couple and capturing candid moments as they happen! Some of the best photos come from natural interaction, so we do a lot of movement-based prompts, but make sure to get some classic portraits for Mom’s fridge, too! In terms of our editing style, we want the photos to look like how the day did - so we don’t alter the images too drastically, just enough to enhance the beauty of the day!
Favorite part of working with couples?
Our favorite part about working with couples is the relationships we are able to form. We will often meet up beforehand to get a chance to know each other, which makes taking photos that much more fun! Every year, we get new friends for puppy play dates, board game nights, and happy hour! It’s incredible to be a part of their lives during such important seasons, and for some, follow along as they start a family.
Favorite part of the wedding day?
We have different favorites! Mine are the speeches, they get me every time! It’s so great to hear how loved the couple is from their friends and families, as well as the quirky stories about how they met. This group of people probably won’t ever be in the same room, so being included is such an honor. Kevin, on the other hand, loves the dancing and has such a blast capturing the energy – you’ll definitely find us on the dance floor!
Advice to couples in selecting a vendor in a wedding photographer!
Our advice for picking a photographer is to not only find someone’s work you love, but also their personality! You spend the majority of your day with your photographers, so having fun with them is so important. Also, check out reviews from past couples – I’m sure you do the same for Amazon purchases!
