She was very comfortable to work with, very helpful in putting together a great time table for our day based on the things we wanted to try to fit in. And it actually was built in a way where we brainstormed additional ideas on how we wanted our day to go that we hadn't thought of sooner. The day of our wedding, she was so personable, encouraging, knew the right shots to take, and the best routes to go. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed her happy and friendly personality, as did we. We received about 60+ preview shots less than 48 hours after parting ways with her, and they look so incredibly stunning. I'm a snob when it comes to photographers and photography, and no joke, Amy Galbraith is more than a pro. She's someone you can truly trust your day with, and hopefully we can find another opportunity to work with her again in the future!

Amy is an amazing photographer but more importantly she made my experience with taking senior…read morephotos really special! I've never had photos taken professionally by a photographer so I felt really nervous before but she was super kind and helped me feel more at place and asked a lot of questions during the shoot so there wasn't any awkward silence. She also had a lot of suggestions what to do with my hair and hands so there's a lot of good variation with the pictures. After she took photos of me I completely forgot why I had been so nervous in the first place. I had a good time. The photos came out great and my family and I were super pleased with all of them :) Coming from the perspective of a senior who got photos taken by Amy, I approve!!

From the beginning Haley was responsive, organized, able to give positive opinions and suggestions, creative, fun and a joy to work with. We were so lucky to find her and get a chance to work with her. She has a great "get to know you" questionnaire that really helped my daughter think about her pictures. She gave us options and gave us honest feedback and great direction. She has connections with an awesome makeup and hair stylist (Sophia Hutch) which you should DEFINATELY take advantage of. I am definitely bias but, my kiddo looked beautiful! My daughter had a great time during her shoot. Haley made her feel so comfortable. They took pictures all over Pioneer Square and down by the waterfront. Haley was even welcoming to bring my daughter's favorite prompt - our English Bulldog. I also have to mention that Haley made an effort to get to know my kiddo. They bonded over "Queer Eye" and "The Great British Bake Off". She was easy to talk to and made my daughter feel like they were old friends. I really appreciated that. A few weeks later Haley ended up taking pictures of my other kiddo for a Christmas present. Again, she was awesome to work with. My husband loved the pictures of his two kids!! Do not hesitate to use Haley for your son's or daughter's senior pictures. You will not be disappointed. You should make your appointment now!

She interacted very well with my wife and I, and was great at engaging our children as well and capturing some special moments with all of us. Her creativity with the camera and the natural environment lends itself well to her artistic eye, and I would recommend her services to anyone looking for both informal shoots as well as formal wedding photography and albums.

Wow, what an amazing photographer Saskia is! Let me tell you a few reasons she is far above the…read moreaverage photographer in my opinion. First of all, my husband and I were living in Ellensburg when we hired her to do our engagement and wedding photos. She is based out of Bellevue. Not only did she drive all the way over the mountains to do our engagement photos at no charge, she even followed us out into the Roslyn wilderness to hike around to get our pictures in the woods where we wanted them. All of this, while in a leg cast! We tried to let her take it easy, but she insisted she was just fine! She hobbled up hills and over logs all to get us the best pictures and she had the best sense of humor and attitude about it! Then, on our wedding day (which was in Leavenworth so again she had to travel quite a ways), she was even more amazing. Her and her husband had to put up with some pretty obnoxious groomsmen and she just laughed and stayed patient. She was fun, positive, and simply wonderful. She was never in any way bossy or demanding, she listened to what we wanted and helped to get those pictures for us while smiling and having a good time. I highly recommend Saskia as a photographer as she truly went above and beyond our expectations. All of my guests raved about how kind and patient she was. Oh, and our pictures are absolutely stunning! She takes time to make sure they are perfect. She really is the total package.

She's also a baby whisperer and manages to keep kids, be they newborns, toddlers, preschoolers, or second graders engaged and happy and looking their best on the shoot. We've been fortunate enough to do several sessions with Brigette, and absolutely plan to do more -- she's more than worth the drive out to her new studio, which is a bit over an hour for us. We did that drive just a week after I got out of the hospital after a postpartum readmission, with a newborn, a 3yo, and a 7yo, and the photos she got were absolutely worth every moment on the road. Hire her for your most precious photos; you won't regret it.

She mixes a little old with a little new. I took my 5 day old daughter Hazel in for her infant shoot and it was amazing. We were all so relaxed it felt like being at a girlfriends house. While I was watching my daughter being shot I also took in her amazing maternity photo's she has hung on the walls. Now I wish I would have had her do mine (I didn't want any pregnant pics but looking at these makes me sad I didn't). Check out her Facebook page Penguin Picture and you'll be able to get a feel for her.

What I loved the most is that they don't just take pictures -- they actually guide you, help style you, and make sure you feel confident in front of the camera. They made me feel so comfortable, and that really shows in the final photos. The attention to detail, the creativity, and the overall vibe during the shoot were just perfect. If you're looking for photography and videography services that truly care about how you look and feel, I 100% recommend Zoya Pixel. Such a talented and sweet team!

We interviewed a handful and felt an instant connection. Not only is she super professional and great at what she does, she makes being photographed fun and easy! She photographed both our engagement photos and our wedding. For our engagement photos she made both of us feel super comfortable not only in front of the camera, but also packing on the PDA at Sculpture Park lol. The photos were fantastic and really did capture who we are as a couple! Fast forward to our wedding. She was super organized, able to keep our family in line (it can be like herding cats) but most importantly, she was super inclusive to all of our family and friends. Our photos are beautiful and candid. Looking at them makes you feel like you were there on the day. We will recommend Jenn to all our friends and family and continue to use her as our family grows! Did I mention she's also hilarious. You'd be doing a disservice to your event not to hire her!

We were referred to Jenn Tai by our wedding planners. We spent $4,410 for 6 hours of wedding day…read morecoverage with 1 photographer. Our photographer was Kelly Bowie. From the moment Kelly arrived at our wedding it felt like amateur hour. Even though we met with her in advance of our wedding and sent all the details in writing, she "forgot" pretty much everything we discussed. For example, Kelly forgot to bring the list of family groupings for the family photos. Kelly also forgot that we needed seating for disability accommodations during the family photos and chose a location that required our elderly and disabled guests to walk down a hill and then stand outside in the August heat for almost an hour with no place to sit. Additionally, during the ceremony Kelly's presence was very distracting. We were in a small greenhouse with multiple entrances where she could have easily walked around the guests to get from one point to another but instead she walked down the aisle and in front of our guests multiple times during the ceremony. If it's possible, when we received the photos we were even more disappointed in Jenn Tai Photography. There was a real lack of attention to detail that was visible in the photos and that you expect a professional photographer to be aware of. For example, in several of the photos you can see phones visible in pockets, hand sanitizer clipped to belts, etc. Also, some of the key photos were overexposed and as a result faces or images were so light that detail was lost. We brought a lot of these issues to the attention of the company owner, Jenn, who did her best to address our concerns during post-production editing. Jenn's customer service was great and we know that she worked hard to try to correct the issues. Thank you, Jenn, for doing your best to fix our photos. Overall, we're still not happy with most of our wedding photos, but thanks primarily to Jenn's post-production work we have a small percentage of wedding photos that we love and will cherish.

Having never hired a photographer before, it was all a bit overwhelming, especially in the wedding space as there are just SO many options. Before meeting Jenny via Skype, my now husband and I had a conversation with another Seattle-based photographer (also by Skype as we were doing all the planning remotely from Oregon). While this other photographer had a really nice portfolio, we left that lackluster conversation feeling very....meh. Very...discouraged. Then... **Dun dun da dahhhh!!!** Enter Jenny on her magical steed of friendliness, creativity, responsiveness, obvious talent and warmth. She immediately understood the kind of photography that we wanted for our wedding day - FUN! As I explained during that first conversation, we are not the "groom kissing bride's forehead at sunset in a field" kind of couple. She also asked about things we liked to do together and what we loved about each other, seeming genuinely interested and curious about us. Jenny has a knack for making you feel relaxed and free - catching the tiny moments between moments beautifully. We spent about an 1.5 hours before our ceremony galavanting around the streets near our venue for our couples photos. Jenny had previously scouted the area and took us to some awesome nooks that I never knew existed, including a super bright fuchsia wall of an apartment building that I just loved! Following all that, she orchestrated our family portrait time well, even with our two crazy families all over the place. While being the utmost of a professional, Jenny just seemed to blend into the party the entire night. Many of our guests commented about how great Jenny was. Our wedding was on a Saturday night and by Monday evening Jenny had already sent us some teasers, which were all AWESOME and I cannot wait to see the rest! I highly recommend Jenny as a wedding photographer, but heck just for any sort of photography needs you may have!! Jenny is simply wonderful.

She is incredibly experienced and intuitive about light and color and is very warm, welcoming and fun to work with. She helped me choose wardrobe from the things I had brought, chose complementary backgrounds and directed me expertly for the most flattering shots. After the shoot she quickly pared down the shots to a few dozen which we went through together in order to find the final three. The entire process was smooth and easy and under an hour total. Within just a couple days she had gently edited the photos and emailed me a download link. Super simple and quick! I am not especially comfortable having my picture taken and was apprehensive about the appointment but it was an absolute joy and I couldn't be more happy with the images we ended up with. Thank you so much, Jenny!
