Adina was stellar from the initial communication to everything post wedding. She's honestly what you dream of when you think about a wedding photographer - Great and timely communication, prompt and professional on the big day, kind and personable, phenomenal behind the lens.... I could go on and on (and on.) I was nervous planning a wedding but the moment Adina sent over her packet with details on what to expect when planning I felt at ease. She has a keen understanding of what a wedding day should flow like and best practices as you establish your timeline, and that is critical when you are thinking through your vision of the day. Her knowledge helps you craft the perfect flow for the day and assures you up front she will capture every one of those moments. Adina is professional in the way she runs her business from an administration perspective to the way she works your event. She was so prompt with providing her very thorough planning guide after the initial consultation and had a clear, concise contract for execution that identified every add-on you may want (second shooter, engagement session etc.) with pricing that you didn't have to read between the lines with. A wedding photographer should be one of your biggest investments of your big day, and having one that provides you in writing everything they're committing to gives you such relief up front. We've all seen people who hire the wrong photographer who maybe showed up late, missed key shots, didn't communicate well enough to understand your personal vision or just ended up in some degree of a let-down on the wedding day. Adina has built a business that you can rely on and feel 100% confident in hiring from the get-go. Her professionalism extends beyond the administration side of hiring a vendor though. Her communication is stellar and her follow through is admirable. Adina guided us in our decisions along the way, asked pointed questions to fill in the gaps when we didn't know quite how to answer a question that was a critical piece of her planning your event with you and was ALWAYS available when we needed to understand any part of the planning process. The day of the wedding she showed up early, dressed to do her job but looking like the professional she is. She came in and got right to business. She asked a few questions to make sure she was going to start with the detail shots she needed while we began getting ready and she was off. She knows in her mind what shots she needs and really helped us follow a schedule that allowed her to do that and made sense in the natural flow of the process. She's such a seasoned professional and it's so comforting to lean on her expertise on such a chaotic day. Her eye to frame a shot, her passion for what she does, the style of her photography - she's literally everything we wanted in a wedding photographer and got. We ended the night feeling so thankful that we hired her, and genuinely felt like she was a friend at our wedding and not a hired vendor. This woman works her tail off for you and has got to be wiped at the end of the event; you've never seen a photographer work harder. Adina is absolutely amazing and if you need a truly seasoned, professional photographer that you can trust with your momentous day, you need to hire her immediately. There is not a thing I would change about our experience with her and we feel so grateful that we found her. Remember that your photographs are what you have for years to come after your special day whizzes by. Having a dedicated, knowledgeable professional gives you peace building up to your event and having a talented, thorough photographer creates the memory that live on your walls for all the years to come. Hire the person that creates those memories for you and captures you at your very best. Adina is that person. read more

Adina is an amazing person and an awesome photographer. Between her quick communication, to her professional attitude, to being relatable, friendly, and kind, she made our photography experience amazing. Adina puts alot of thought behind her shots, her composition, and editing, and provides a clean look without over-editing and removing the character from the shots.

We absolutely loved working with Adina! Her photos speak for themselves - we have amazing shots from our engagement session, getting ready pre-wedding, ceremony, and reception. She is wonderful at capturing the moment and feeling. Our dog is a big part of our life and we were impressed with how well she was able to wrangle big families and get great shots of everyone, including the dog! Outside of just the pictures, Adina is a delight to work with. She had great advice and shared wedding wisdom with us in the very early stages of our planning. She's a wedding pro and day of jumped in to help the men figure out how to put on boutineers, pose everyone for the best shot, and help keep everyone calm and happy :) If we were to go back and do the whole thing again, we'd definitely stick with Adina Preston as our photographer read more

I had been looking for a fitness photographer for quite some time and never found one that did exactly what I wanted in a shoot.

She made me feel so comfortable during my session and she knew the exact shots that would look best. She was so friendly and fun to work with! I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future for more fun photo shoots!! read more

Adina and DanYelle her 2nd shooter recently shot my daughter;s wedding at the Monte Cristo Ballroom. I am in the wedding industry in Phoenix and have worked with many photographers. I do expect a lot from a photography team. They did such an amazing job. From the minute they walked in I had full confidence that our photos would turn out spectacular. My daughter received her photos back last week. WOW! Adina you are truly gifted and I can not thank you enough for your professionalism, wonderful demeanor and beautiful work. I wish I could give you 50 starz!!!! You were definately an asset. Thank you again for excellent work! read more

Finding someone who knows why they're doing for fitness photography is hard but Adina went above and beyond my expectations! She worked with me for all the shots I needed and even suggested more. We split my time so that I could have 2 locations and was really easy and fun to work with! I highly recommend Adina for any fitness related photo shoots! read more

Adina is an amazing photographer. You give her a concept and she will produce exactly what you are looking! She knows just how to set the lighting if needed and what angles work best for any situation! read more

I will give 100 stars if I could! Highly recommended! I searched for wedding photographers for a long time before I booked with Adina. I am a designer myself so I really have very high expectation and standards when it comes to my own wedding photography. The moment I saw her work, I know that's how I want my wedding photos to be. The first time we met was actually our engagement photo session, she is so gentle, so nice and just makes us feel so relaxed during the entire photo session. When it comes to our wedding day, Adina and her partner were AMAZING! She brought LOTs of photography equipments and even got a time-lapse of how my big day was developed. Only after a week and half, all photos are ready for us to review and download. All of them are beautifully done! They really took tons of photos! Awesome work, LOVE LOVE LOVE Adina! read more

Adina is amazing! I didn't have to look very far before I found her (on the Wedding Wire, I think?) From the start, Adina was so easy to work with and accommodating to us. We had a blast taking our engagement photos, and then receiving them and being blown away by them was just the best. She is so talented and I was thrilled to find such a photographer for a reasonable price. We couldn't be happier with our experience so far, and are so excited to work with her on our wedding day! read more

Adina Photography - Session Photography Near Me

See all

My wife and I are very organized, detailed oriented and particular and we absolutely enjoy having Adina as our photographer for our wedding and engagement pictures. She meets our standards in every way. She is organized, detailed, talented, creative, professional, friendly, fun to work with. She is not afraid to tell people to move to get a good shot, stopped traffic in the the middle of a busy Queen Anne street, she helped us carried our shoes as we were walking bare feet. We love Adina's creativity and passion for photography. She is very professional, punctual, she constantly asked us what type of pictures/ shots we wanted, making sure we are happy and comfortable during the shooting. She is on track through out the process of setting up our engagement photo sessions and outlining the details on our big day to ensure she will capture all the photos we need/want.

Adina was wonderful. She answered my initial web query IMMEDIATELY, with the most thoughtful and professional message. She happened to be available on short notice, and did not require the purchase of massively expensive albums. She even had our pictures available online within just a few days, with the option to buy prints. Every part of working with her was wonderful, from the reasonable pricing, to the seamless work she did, to the wonderful photos. I couldn't have ask for more. read more

I want to start off by saying this is only my second review on Yelp. I don't write Yelp reviewis unless I am blown away by an experience. Adina was the only photographer that we met with! We knew from the first couple of minutes of the initial consultation that she was the perfect photographer to capture our big day! She is SO passionate about what she does and has a natural eye for once in a lifetime shots. She touched base with me numerous times through out my wedding planning process to see if I needed anything from her. On our wedding day, she kept every one calm and suggested some awesome places to take photos. All of our pictures turned out AMAZING, and we had our wedding party and guests begging to see the pictures from our wedding. Book Adina as your wedding photographer! You will regret it if you don't! read more

I booked Adina without meeting her in person first, purely based on her good reviews so I hope that this will help the next couple decide to book with her as well! Adina far exceeded my hopes and expectations. I was aiming to get a lot of candid photos and less posing photos so I didn't allocate a lot of time for posing pictures on our wedding day. With the time we did use, Adina got the job done with A LOT of great pictures of us with together, with our families, and with the wedding party. As the weeks after our wedding passed and I hadn't seen the pictures yet I was getting nervous...maybe asking for mostly candids was a bad idea. Candids can be very unforgiving (unflattering) and I wanted a lot of good pictures of course! When the pictures arrived (only 3-4 weeks later-amazing!) we were blown away by what Adina and her assistant were able to capture. BEAUTIFUL pictures of everyone. Everyone who saw the pictures said that they completely relived the day when they were looking through them. We are SO happy with the outcome. Besides beautiful pictures that we will cherish forever, Adina and her assistant were so wonderful to work with. From the first consultation, to the engagement session, and especially on the wedding day, Adina was so warm and professional. She quietly captures moments from the side and jumps in to give recommendations when she sees potential for a better photo. I'm so thankful we booked her for our wedding day and I'd highly recommend you do the same if you want to be able to relive all those amazing moments all over again, forever! read more

After the initial meeting with Adina, we knew she would be the one. She was friendly and we could tell that she loves what she is doing and that taking pictures is not a job, but a passion. Our initial thoughts were cemented time and time again throughout our interactions. Our engagement session at the Suzzalo library, Adina told at least four students move their backpacks so it won't be in our pictures. This is one of many examples to show that Adina is very detailed oriented photographer. Not only that she makes sure you look great, but your surroundings too! During the day of the wedding, Adina was very efficient. She was very good at directing the bridal party so we can quickly get the shots we needed. Most importantly, Adina was very friendly to all our guests. Though, I can go on and on about how great Adina is, but since you haven't met her, you probably care more about how the pictures turned out. We are thrilled with how they came out. Our family (especially the moms) loves them and want copies of them! read more

Adina Preston is absolutely amazing! She was with us from engagement to ceremony and she made everything so easy for us! We had limited space and time for our pictures but Adina took the moment and had it absolutely amazing! We enjoyed having her at our wedding and would do it again in a heart beat!!! read more

Adina shot our engagement and wedding in Seattle. On both occasions, she stuck with us through the drizzle and downpour, and did it all with style, grace, and enthusiasm. We picked her because of her editorial style, creative thinking, ability to let emotions shine through in photographs, and how comfortable we felt when we met her. She was always punctual about communicating with us, organized about gathering our shoot list, and unobtrusive during the wedding. We truly feel lucky to have found her! read more
