First of all, both my fiance and I are awkward people. This meant finding a wedding photographer…read morewho could work with a socially awkward couple would be...difficult. Of course, we wanted perfect pictures...but we also wanted to feel comfortable with our photographer on our big day. After viewing many websites and contacting many photographers, we chose Siang and Lightphoria because of Siang's personality and his love for photography. Siang is easy to work with and listens to all your concerns and needs. We started off with a couple's session (aka engagement session) where we went around Seattle, taking pictures and breaking the ice. We turned these pictures into a guestbook, which ALL our guests adored and could not stop talking about!! Siang not only made sure he had good shots, but he took the time to develop a photographer/client connection (being socially awkward and all, boy did we take up a lot of his time). Seriously though, many photographers can take perfect pictures by working with lighting and the basic rules of photography 101. But only great photographers can capture those indescribable moments where one glance from the bride or that look in the groom's eyes captures feelings from that day. Siang has captured some of these "moments." When I look at my photos, I don't see just family and friends - instead, I see love, happiness, nervousness and joy. It is these intangible moments that Siang captures so beautifully. You won't be disappointed with Lightphoria or Siang if you ask him to freeze frame important moments in your life. We love him so much that we plan to have him at other special occasions in our life such as anniversaries, the start of our family and our children's birthday. Hopefully, our children won't be as socially awkward around cameras as Mommy and Daddy. P.S. Tell Siang that "DOMO" says hi!

Siang is amazing. On behalf of one of my best friends, whose wedding I was in as a bridesmaid, I…read morecannot begin to thank him for the moments he captured on her special day. Both the bride and groom love photographs, but were apprehensive of double chins, awkward faces and poses, as well as their first glance being captured on film. Siang knew just what to say, when to say it, and how to make everyone involved feel special and at ease. Siang was probably the only one who knew how to handle the devious flower girls and apprehensive ring bearers in the hot August sun. No double chins any where either! I've also had the pleasure of attending another wedding that Siang photographed. In both weddings the bride and groom felt like the photographs made their weddings seem that much more beautiful and fun! Nothing but rave reviews on his genuine, comfortable approach to wedding photography, not to mention the gorgeous shots. He also put together (possibly as part of the package, I'm not sure), slideshows and picked music for each one. This was truly a blessing as the wedding that I was in, the pictures came after the new groom was already deployed in Afghanistan. The pictures are beautiful reminder of their wedding and lifetime to come.

She's so kind, patient, and detail-oriented while keeping things from looking too posed like a lot of family photographers. I cherish the slice-of-life pics we have from our maternity journey and newborn days and recommend her to everyone I know.

The results are outstanding!! The photos, are creative, pleasing and make us look better than we do in real life, in a subtle way. My husband is apprehensive about having his picture taken, like most people, but Carol is very friendly and knows how to put you at ease and make the whole experience very fun. He relaxed right away and liked the results very much. We often recommend Carol to other business owners and to clients. Everyone that we have sent to Carol has been very happy. Carol enjoys incorporating your life/personality into the photos. From your favorite beach, or vintage truck and even your family pets.

The studio was super clean, and even had a bathroom with a changing station and diapers / wipes in case we needed them. There were many hats, blankets, and props to choose from.

I am really picky when it comes to new photographers but Ana was referred to us and so I thought we would give her a try. It was our first "mini session" and I was afraid a timed mini session anywhere would feel rushed (especially with a toddler) but we did not feel rushed at all. Ana was very patient and created a stress-free environment, she let us take our time with every pose, and even got our toddler to smile quite a bit (which in the past we found difficult for anyone else to make him smile). She knows how to work with little ones! She had great ideas for poses as well and also made sure there weren't any specific poses we wanted that were left out. I came into this session just wanting 5-10 photos but she delivered so much more and I'm so thankful we got copies of all of that because the pictures really did turn out great! We definitely feel like this photo session was worth every bit spent! (She even collected food donations and provided giveaways to those who donated). We look forward to working with Ana more in the future!

Stacey brought a lot of outfits, wraps, backgrounds, etc. for us to choose from which was really helpful since we weren't completely sure what we wanted - and she suggested some really adorable poses! She's very warm and gentle with the newborns, and just as great with the toddlers; she read a story to our 2-year-old daughter while I nursed the baby, and our daughter just adored her. Prior to coming to our home, she also emailed several suggestions for getting ready (such as making sure the room was a little warmer than normal so the baby would stay sleepy and happy through outfit changes). We find her so fun to work with and she makes the process so easy; it's amazing to be put at ease while having your picture taken. She had the pictures to us within the week, and they are gorgeous! I can't stop staring at them. We highly recommend her!
