What Our Couples Say
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we book our wedding photo and video team?
Book 12-18 months before your wedding date. Prime dates (May-October) and popular venues in Seattle fill up quickly, especially for weekend weddings.
Do you deliver every image you shoot in Seattle, WA?
No. We carefully curate your final gallery, removing duplicate images, test shots, and photos where people are blinking or making unflattering expressions. You’ll receive all the polished images that best tell your wedding story.
How many wedding photos do we receive?
For a full wedding day (8 hours), you receive 600-800 professionally edited photos. This number varies based on your timeline, guest count, and planned events.
When do we receive our wedding photos and wedding videos in Seattle?

What happens if it rains on our wedding day in Seattle?
Seattle weather is unpredictable. We scout backup indoor locations before your wedding day and bring professional lighting equipment. We also carry clear umbrellas that look elegant in photos while keeping you dry.
Do we need both a wedding videographer and a wedding photographer in Seattle WA?
While wedding photos and videos serve different purposes, they complement each other. Photos capture still moments for wall art and albums, while video preserves movement, sound, and emotion. Neither can fully replace the other.

We welcome shot lists for formal family combinations. However, for candid moments and creative shots, it’s better to let us work organically. Shot lists can make us miss authentic moments while checking boxes.

We maintain a network of professional photographers and videographers in Seattle who match our style and quality. In the unlikely event of an emergency, we guarantee equally talented coverage of your wedding.
Do you have liability insurance?
Yes. We carry comprehensive business liability insurance and professional equipment insurance. We can provide certificates of insurance to your venue if required.
