We hired Alex and his team for my photo and video. We had a 7-hour package from 2 PM to 9 PM at…read moreWillows Lodges. We scheduled the photo start time for 2 PM, annd Alex showed up at 12:00PM to begin setting up. My makeup artist told me this is Alex style. Once he finished setting up the video equipment, he went to the site to start capturing the details--shots of my dress, my beautiful high heels, and jewelry. He was so detailed, trying to get different angles of the shots, which I really liked. I spent a lot of money on my dress and accessories, and I definitely wanted to capture them in my book. The ceremony was outside under the stage, and he guided us to the back area, which had more greenery, for our family and wedding party portraits. He was so funny and creative--everyone enjoyed his sense of humor. I believe he has a gift for making people feel comfortable and de-stressed. He even made my 85-year-old grandmother smile, which I hadn't seen in a long, long time. During the ceremony, he captured so many different shots, from wide angles to close-ups. He stayed close to us but kept enough distance so that the guests felt comfortable. I remember at my sister's wedding, her photographer stayed too close to everyone, and it felt awkward. We received over 2,000 proofs to select from and ended up choosing 250 instead of the 200 we planned. Thank you, Alex and your team, for capturing this wonderful lifetime memory for us. We really appreciate your hard work and sense of humor. Whenever I visit my grandma, she still remembers your name. You definitely have a gift and talent for bringing happiness to others. Irene K.

We just had our third outdoor family session with Alex in the last three years recently. This time…read morewe had a total of 8 people (my sister's and my families with grandma). As parents, family sessions can sometimes feel stressful especially with a large group, but Alex made the entire process effortless and fun. He was incredibly patient with our kids and captured such beautiful, candid moments that truly reflect our family's personality. He also very patiently full-filled my sister's wishes of have many different poses with her two impatient teenagers who normally reluctant to pose "intimately" with their mother. Somehow, Alex was able to make the boys follow his directions with different beautiful poses. The final gallery was amazing and we will treasure these photos forever. Highly recommend!"

I typically dislike photos of myself and am really nervous about having my picture taken. Enter: Ian from Seattle Headshots. There's a reason SH has such great Yelp reviews. Ian is the consummate professional. He is both timely and talented. His eye for esthetic is spot on. And he was great at helping me relax so we could get the perfect shot. Really, there wasn't a bad photo in the bunch! If you're looking for a professional headshot that represents your business well, I recommend giving Ian a call.

Going into this process I was stressed out. After all, this was a serious investment into my…read morebusiness. We've all seen those terrible headshots that are over-edited or too busy, and I know exactly how I wanted mine to look. Ian exceeded all my expectations! It was a beautiful Seattle day so we had many backdrops to shoot over. We must have walked to 15 different backdrops by the end of my session, each with a slightly different look. Ian made me feel comfortable, he kept us on track & gave a few tips to achieve the best look. By the end of the session, before I had even seen the photos, I knew they'd turn out great! I highly recommend Ian's services to anyone in need of professional headshots.

I am lucky to have Aaron as our photographer and Nicole as makeup Artist for maternity shoot. They…read moremade the shooting session a joyful memory ! I had Nicole for my wedding make up artist in 2018, I was very happy with her work back then and decided to have her for my maternity shoot not even with a hesitation. Nicole is my fav make up artist! Aaron is so professional and really good at using natural lighting in photography. He is also patient and considerable the whole time, I had three outfits for the shooting session, before shooting my next outfit, he will always show me the photos, and ask me if I am satisfied with the shoot, or if there is anything particular that I want to have in my photo, which really impressed me. My husband and I are really appreciate Aaron capturing the special moment for us. I would for sure recommend Nicole and Aaron if any of my friends asked me recommendations for the best make up artist and photographer in Seattle! :)

First off, let me just say that Aaron made me and my wife feel like we received way more from his…read morewedding photography service than we paid for. Wedding photos are the most important thing to us in a wedding because they are a way for us to look back on such a special moment in our lives, so we had to pick the best. Aaron was by far the friendliest and attentive photographer we talked to. The best part about working with Aaron is that you only have to tell him a few wedding details and he takes care of the rest, giving us the time to focus on other aspects of the wedding. On top of that, we also used the wedding makeup service that his wife Nicole provided. The combination of their services definitely made the wedding planning easier. Aaron always kept us up-to-date on the progress of the photos after the wedding. The photos turned out excellent! I was very surprised by the artistic creativity that Aaron came up with. He incorporated different props, lighting angles and scenes to give vibrant colors in the photos. Both me and my wife really enjoyed looking back at the photos Aaron took. We cannot thank him enough for helping us capture the memorable moments we had at our wedding with friends and family. I know that years from now we will be able to look back at these photos and re-live the moment as if we were there again! Thanks again Aaron and Nicole!

We consider ourselves so fortunate to have found Shane to be our wedding photographer for our…read morerecent wedding in Chicago. After looking at a number of different photographers' portfolios online, I fell in love with Shane's approach to capturing his subjects looking so relaxed, natural, and effortlessly beautiful in a range of natural and urban settings. After meeting him, it was easy to see why everyone looks so comfortable in his photos -- he's got an incredible easy going manner that makes even the most photo-shy (me and my then-fiance) eager to get in front of the camera. Bonus points for sharing a lot of our interests (dogs, traveling, nature, internet memes) and being an interesting person to talk to. Shane was super flexible when it came to scheduling our engagement photos and wedding photos. He had a ton of ideas for different locations and shots and made us look incredible. The two other people he brought to shoot our wedding, his second shooter Sam and his intern Ana, were great and our whole wedding party just adored all of them. We had asked to take some gritty photos in an abandoned area, which attracted some unwanted attention and Shane and his crew went above and beyond. They stayed late and arranged a fantastic "last shot" late in the night that was a lot of fun to do. Shane posted some teaser photos immediately after our wedding on Facebook (he asked us whether that would be something we would want, and it was) which is a lot of fun when you're basking in that just-married excitement. Can't recommend Shane and his team enough!

Shane was professional when we met. He emphasized how much he valued customer service and seemed…read morevery flexible. We notified him via email 'within' the 7 day grace period he gives to customers that we want him as our photographer. He responded that he would love to be our photographer and we started the process to have the contract written up. Due to our schedules, it took 2 to 3 days for us to get back to him at times, but was able to get the contract written up in 1.5 weeks. My fiance and I were not able to both review the contract till a week later. I can understand that the delay in our response could have been frustrating. After a week I called him with final questions and requested to have the contract modified to ask for our approval before images are posted. He did not indicate issues with this and he said he would gladly modify the contract and send to us the next day. I thought we were all set to go and was very excited. Two days later didn't receive an updated contract. Instead, received an email stating that he accepted another customer who signed and paid him right away. I'm not sure how he expected us to pay him a deposit when he had not yet sent the updated contract he promised to us. We would have appreciated being consulted before he had accepted the new customer since we were in the middle of signing the contract. It is very unfortunate as we did not expect this and we are now back at square one. In the end, it is probably for the best. After this review had been posted, Shane indicated he thought we were on the fence the whole time. I can not speak to his photography as I've only seen his portfolio which is what appealed to us. This experience may have been a fluke. We didn't have the ideal experience, but Shane has 8 positive reviews (see filtered reviews) and a friend of mine who used him for their wedding enjoyed working with him.

I loved how his baby daughter tried to cheer up my son who was particularly cranky that evening. We loved his photos and they turned out to be exactly what we wanted. He was super nice throughout the evening, despite how grumpy our baby was. Daniel and his wife were very nice to my parents and my parents were extremely happy about how their photos with their grandchild turned out to be. I think this is the first time that my parents have ever been part of a photoshoot and they loved it :-) We highly recommend Daniel and we will definitely be working with him in the future as well.

This is our 3rd time working with Daniel (twice for family photos and the third time was for our…read morewhole wedding!) He was WONDERFUL from start to finish. He is very quick at snapping photos, which is perfect for families with squirmy kids. His artistic style feels very candid - capturing the moments of walking, talking, etc. with minimal staging! He also has a keen eye for capturing the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest; knowing when to place us behind draping tree leaves, or in a field of tall grass, or with a lush forest line behind us, etc. These distance shots will certainly make beautiful large-print canvases! He is the perfect fit for couples who want the scenic beauty of their environment captured alongside them. Great work Daniel!!!

In surgery, Casey was able to photograph those first moments of my husband and I with our son, but also other shots that I had no idea would be so sweet like the doctor first pulling him out, his weight, and the time he was born. The photos are priceless! Casey also photographed my family and extended family. Without being overbearing, she coordinated beautiful portraits of 4 families with kids in a mini-session. She was able to get all the kids smiling and posed, which was not an easy task. We loved the family pictures and can't wait to use her again as our families grow. Casey does amazing work and is so pleasant and easy to work with.
