We were so fortunate to work with Ken and "Hector." They made the process so relaxing and very laid back. My husband and I decided that photos were going to be the biggest investment when it came to our wedding, and right away we knew Azzura would do that job. I actually fell in love with their style of photos even before i was engaged. Thank you team Azzura! You deserve more than 5 stars!

I've promised Tania from Azzura to write a truthful review for them because she had done so much…read moreand such a great job for our wedding photography on July 12, 2014! so... where do I start? In short: Choosing Azzura Photography as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we've made for our wedding, and the money were so well spent and what we got from them are so much worthy of the money! long version: we are a couple from China, I been here for 8 years and my fiancée has been here for 4 years. we knew each since 2012 and we decided to get married in July this year. And we decided to do a wedding in Seattle, where we knew each other and currently living. we could say we knew very little about how to plan and prepare for a wedding when we started in the beginning of this year (2014). we don't have families in US that could give us advice or share their experience. and we did not have close friends who got married in US either so we were basically did not how how to start! we went to the Seattle wedding show in Seattle convention center in January ( if I remembered it correctly) hoping to get a sense of how to plan a wedding ... but we ended up collecting a few gadgets/swags and a lot of brochures for all kind of services ... but we did not really got the essence of how we could started planning our wedding. and I wished I had stopped by Azzura's booth and got a chance talking to Tania at that time. if we had been able to hired Azzura earlier, then we would have a much easier job in our whole wedding planning. but anyway, we did not do anything after the wedding show, and we started finding a venue for our wedding at the end of February. after more than 1 months of searching , we did find our place, a nice church for the ceremony and a nice water front restaurant for our reception. but it was really stressful and a lot of comparisons and it was tough job. if we've hired Tania from Azzura before we started searching for a location, I am sure we would find a more "picture-perfect" place with her suggestion. anyway. after securing the venue, we started shopping for our photographer. we asked around our friends, and search online (from weddingwire, from yelp etc) , and called almost every studios from the wedding show catalog we've got. there were just too many choices - and some of them were booked at the date we chose, we ended up narrow down to 5 ~ 6 of them. and Azzura was in the shortlist. after we sent the links of their works to our various friends and family members to gather feedback, we got a lot more votes for Azzura - to quote some of our family members/friends' feedback - "Azzura's pictures tell the store vividly" , "I think Azzura has better sense of the whole surrounding for the picture", "look at the light, it feel so classy and so natural..." anyway, we talked to Tania over the phone, met with her once between we decided to hire her. I have to say, comparing to many photographers (including one who were from Hong Kong - considering as our own people) we've talked to, Tania just feel right and very professional. Tania is the co-owner of Azzura Photography Studio (another owner is her husband), they were both professional photographers before they met more than 10 years ago and owned their own studio already (it was a concern to me that some studio owned by a couple, only one of them are originally a photographer and the other just learned to do that under the coaching of the other) . Tania won a lot of awards with her own works. After we started working with Tania, we got so much help and advice from her. We are like from almost knew nothing and had no clue what the proceeding it would be like for our wedding to knowing almost every details. Tania told us everything, she suggested the timeline for us, shared with us a lot of connections and resources to choose from whenever we need a referral (and she was not concerned about whether we hire those or not - because her goal was to help us not to make money for her connections). Thank God we hired Tania! Everybody in our families love her! even the guest were very impressive by her. She came 15 minutes early in our wedding day and leave later then the time we have paid for. She is very energetic and ending up we getting so many photos in the hours of coverage we've paid for - which are so much more beyond our expectation! All of our guest are Chinese, and our whole wedding were carried out in Chinese; Tania were quite experienced with Asian wedding and that did not cause a problem to her (she told us that a high percentage of her clients are Asian). and of course ,the most important thing, we love our photos!!! Tania技术很好，拍出来的照片很自然，人物很好看，拍中国人的婚礼没有问题。谢谢！(Thank you!)

[Semi-disclosure: our wedding was in 2009, and this review is posted in 2011 because I was asked to…read moreadd it to Yelp. However, I received no compensation or discount for it, I don't expect to be doing business with them soon that would get me that discount, and I stand by it as true and genuine.] I was in charge of finding the photographer, and my wife was really angry about me wanting her to meet "just one more" -- until she actually met Dan DeLong and saw his work. We knew he was what we were looking for, and they were competitively priced compared to other shops out there (especially once you factored in the skill). Dan photographed our entire day, from getting ready at the hotel, to a wedding on the water in September sunshine, to wandering through the galleries of a local museum. We just did our album (finally!) in 2011, and every time we look at these photos, it almost makes us cry. He perfectly captured the excitement, the romance, the playfulness of our friends' children and the settings, and all the emotion we wish we could bottle from the most perfect day of our lives together. I loved the PI and miss it, but the one good thing about its demise is that it created RedBox. These guys have spent years practicing their craft and learning to capture fleeting moments that tell a story, and we would recommend them to anyone.

Dan DeLong and the other photographers at Red Box Pictures are simply terrific. We hired Dan to…read moreshoot our wedding in the Methow Valley and were thrilled with the way the photographs turned out. We really wanted a photojournalist to capture the candid moments of our day, and we got exactly what we were looking for. (Dan is a former photographer with the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. So are the other three who work at Red Box Pictures). I can't tell you how much fun it was to get the pictures back and see all the little things we missed during that blur-of-the-day. Dan came to the resort to photograph me and my girls as we got ready, and somehow managed to get back to the wedding site to get my husband getting ready as well. He didn't miss any detail throughout the day and night. He was also very personable, easy to work with and spent a good deal of time consulting with us about what we wanted. He even helped us sort out the timing of events so we'd get the best light and best photographs in the outdoors (we got married with the North Cascades in the background).

Jonathan and Lindsey did all of our wedding photography: our engagement photos, our rehearsal…read moredinner, AND our wedding day. We LOVED working with them and LOVED our photos too. 1. Really easy to work with - very soothing, calming, friendly, flexible, kind, humble 2. Really cute couple too - happily married with really cute kids 3. Didn't seem like they were driven by money, but more from the enjoyment of photography, weddings, etc.... which comes through in how they work with clients. It means a lot. So many other photographers seem to be driven by price and vanity - and it takes away from both the experience and the art. 4. Gave us all of the photos on a DVD at the end (which was great for what we wanted). 5. Dependable = showed up on time, prepared, each and every session. Professionalism was there all the way - the flexibility, friendliness, kindness is what makes them our choice for photographers.

I fell in love their work through various wedding blogs, and hired them to shoot our wedding that took place in August 2009. Dorothee shot our wedding and I can't believe how amazing out pictures are. Somehow she was able to be everywhere at once! My husband and I agreed that on the day of she was the perfect amount of "present" (guiding people, getting people together for group shots without being pushy, somehow always there the exact second I needed to talk to her) and "invisible" (she got a ton of great candid shots.) While she is only in Seattle part time, she still makes herself really available to answer questions, and is proactive about showing samples and figuring things out. Not only is she a fantastic photographer, but she's really sweet also. Just the sort of person you would want at your wedding. She has an abundance of great ideas, but is totally happy to take direction as far as what you're looking for in your photography. I really can't recommend Belathee (and Dorothee in particular) highly enough! We are SO happy with our photos and know they are a fantastic, beautiful way to remember our wedding.

We used Belathee to shoot our wedding in Halifax, Nova Scotia (plus a party in Seattle with friends…read morewhich they also shot), and could not have hired a better team. They are the most talented photographers who capture from the most candid, fun moments to just stylish and memorable. Annabel and Dorothee are so personable and have an amazing eye for every detail. They know how to work the crowd without being pushy and do not take the standard, boring, stiff photos so commonly seen. What they produce is beautiful and incredible art. The photos turned out so wonderful, I can't thank them enough for truly capturing every important moment and bringing to light even the smallest of details. I HIGHLY recommend Belathee. With Dorothee living in Seattle, and Annabel in New York, they have traveled all over the world for some of the most unique weddings. They have such a diverse background and really stand out among the others.

The results on his website speak for themself (https://www.jamesthomaslong.com/), and we were blown away by the photos we got!

We were referred to Robbie Negrin Photography for our wedding, and we are so glad we were. From the…read moremoment we reached out, Robbie was responsive, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. The contract and payment process was straightforward and fair, and he followed up quickly to get things moving. We worked with Robbie for both our engagement session and our wedding day in Seattle. For our engagement shoot at Smith Tower, Robbie made incredible use of the historic setting--capturing the charm and architecture of the building while keeping the focus on us. It was our first time doing a professional photo session, and he made it fun, relaxed, and totally comfortable. Our wedding took place at Imperia Seattle, and once again Robbie (and his team) went above and beyond. He was thoughtful about incorporating the venue's unique design and architecture into our photos, which made everything feel cohesive and elevated. He helped us manage wedding day logistics, kept things on track, and captured so many candid moments that we'll treasure forever. We also booked his videographer, who worked seamlessly with Robbie to round out the day. It was clear from start to finish that Robbie genuinely cares--not just about taking great photos, but about helping his clients feel supported and seen. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, reliable, and genuinely invested in making your wedding day unforgettable, Robbie is the one.

Robbie and his team are the best in the area. I originally saw him on a sponsored post on Facebook…read moreand decided to contact him as I fell in love with his style of photography. Robbie called me the same evening and we talked for awhile about my goals, dates, and what he offers with pricing. He was super personable and made sure everything was clear. I ended up booking him for photography of my wedding which included engagement session. During the engagement session, he was so funny and made both husband and I feel comfortable. This created genuine candid photos of us laughing and being playful. With new photographers, it's always scary and may feel awkward but Robbie made everything so effortless. I don't remember the turn around for receiving the photos but it wasn't anything crazy and reasonable for how busy his scheduling is. For the actual wedding, again, Robbie was on time, interactive, and made the guests and wedding party comfortable. He brought an assistant with him to get every possible photo we could dream of and let me tell you, the photos are all AMAZING. All Robbie kindly asked for was a plate of food during reception. How could you not provide that to him & his assistant when capturing the most special moments and there for 10+ hours that day. Due to getting married during July (the busiest time of year for weddings) I believe the turnaround for photos was a few months. The anticipation killed me but so worth the wait! Robbie and his team throughout the process of everything was great on communication, transparency, and really making sure you receive photos you absolutely love. I even recommended him to a couple in my wedding party who were getting married and they booked him with no hesitation! If you truly want someone you can feel comfortable with and photos you want to show to everyone 24/7 then book Robbie!
