Associate Photographers

Firstly, everything you receive when working with tmInspired associate photographers will reflect what you’ve already seen in our portfolio. Rather, you can browse sample galleries yourself and read their bios directly by scrolling down!

Additionally, we think that having your photo taken should be a fun and freeing experience. Rather than awkward and stuffy. You will be guided through the entire process, while still being given the freedom to act like yourselves. You don’t need to know a damn thing about taking photos! Because we’ve got you covered.

Madison
(She/her)
Based in Seattle, WA

Madison was born and raised in the PNW. She grew up bringing her point and shoot camera everywhere she went. Her passion continued into adulthood as she found the importance of capturing the big moments, small moments, and everything in between. Madison is a mom to two wonderful kids, is a lifelong vegetarian, and will always have a love for The Beatles. She values telling a detailed story through her photographs.

Ashley
(She/her)
Based in Seattle, WA

When Ashley isn’t behind the camera, you can find her either on the trails with her husband and wonder dog or haunting a local bookshop. Ashley will be the first to admit that she spends WAYYY too much time on Tiktok for someone who is 30, but she likes to think that it keeps her “hip with the kids”. If you like Star Wars, books, dogs, or Diet Coke, it’s safe to say that you will probably be instant friends. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Jacque
(She/her)
Based in Seattle, WA

Jacque grew up in Western Washington and enjoyed being surrounded by the evergreens and the ocean. She now lives in Eastern Washington and gets to appreciate the valleys and deserts of that region! She is passionate about dogs, adventure, sunshine, and love stories. As a wedding photographer since 2017, her main focus is making sure each couple feels comfortable, confident and celebrated while she captures their big day. As a new momma, she finds herself seeking out more honest and candid moments to help seal real memories into the form of a photo. Your love story deserves to be celebrated deeply and fiercely!

Kris L.
(He/Him)
Based in Seattle, WA

Kris is a Houston transplant, so prepare to hear “y’all” frequently during your sessions. Since 2015, he has been delving deep into couples’ stories to better showcase their love. His empathetic approach places the focus squarely on you, prioritizing your journey to marriage above all else. You can count on him to provide comfort before your first look and bring boundless energy to the dance floor. When he’s not at weddings, you’ll likely spot Kris capturing candids on the streets of Seattle, discovering new restaurants and antique stores with his wife, or simply enjoying leisurely drives around Washington, falling more in love with the PNW. Click here to view his tmInspired sample gallery.

Hannah
(She/Her)
Based in Portland, OR

Hannah grew up in Utah, with a camera almost always in her hands. For the last 4 years, she has been living in Hawaii, where she officially became a full time photographer. Now based in Portland, she’s found the perfect blend of forest trails, misty coastlines, and creative community. She’s passionate about helping people feel seen and celebrated just as they are. When she’s not photographing weddings or families, she’s likely out walking her Australian shepherd, teaching voice and piano lessons, or playing board games with her husband. At every session, Hannah brings calm energy, honest encouragement, and a knack for making people feel instantly at ease. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Kris O.
(She/Her)
Based in Portland, OR

Kris grew up on Oahu island of Hawaiʻi with a disposable camera in hand from her earliest memory, at the age of seven. Now that she is in Portland, she is soaking up everything that the PNW has to offer. Her passion for photography actually stems from working to overcome her own insecurities in being photographed. She works hard to make sure that everybody and every-body feels beautiful when they work with her. Her hobbies include experimenting through cooking in the kitchen (her go-to first impression dish is her take on Japanese curry!) and creating TikTok content of her fur family. At every wedding and portrait session, Kris is the professional hand holder, shoulder to cry on, and ultimate hype woman. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Dani
(She/her)
Based in Portland, OR

Dani fell in love with photography after her parents bought her a crappy 3 megapixel camera in the hopes it got her off of World of Warcraft (It didn’t work, but she hasn’t been farther than 5 feet from a camera ever since). She’s an unapologetic Hufflepuff and bird enthusiast. Dani will spend your day joking with you, discussing the ins and outs of fictional worlds, and probably telling you all about her feathered sidekick like any bird-nerd would. All the while, you’ll be getting your real, genuine reactions photographed and woven into a visual story you can cherish forever. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Leah
(She/Her)
Based in Portland, OR

Leah grew up in the mountains, forests, and valleys of the Western United States, and her work is heavily inspired by the landscapes of her childhood. Her favorite waterfall is Wahclella in the Columbia Gorge and her favorite dinosaur is the Pachycephalosaurus. Leah is a documentary-style photographer meaning that, like a proper introvert, she sits back and lets your day unfold (and steps in with guidance when needed!). She feels that the in-between moments – when you are lost in each other and forget the camera is there – make for the most authentic images. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Amanda V.
(She/Her)
Based in AZ & SoCal

Amanda lives in Arizona but serves the Southern California area often when she visits family and friends. Orange County is where she grew up and loves when work can bring her back to visit. She spent her childhood experiencing weddings through her mom’s eyes as a florist. Amanda loved seeing a wedding come to life from beginning to end. As she grew up, so did her own creativity. She always wanted to find an avenue that feeds her creative spirit and pursuing photography became an obvious choice for her. To this day, she still finds satisfaction in a wedding coming to life. Elegance and style is at the front of her mind. Mom of 3 kiddos, she is fueled by her sense of adventure and bottomless iced coffee. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Amanda H.
(She/Her)
Based in Southern Cali.

Photography is Amanda’s creative dream come true. You may hear her yell “YAAASS!” more than once throughout your portrait session, and she’s a big fan of punny jokes. Around high school, Amanda found out for herself how important memories were. Not just the ones she was creating currently but the ones that she couldn’t get back. She realized that captured moments carry such a significance for her that she wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too. Mom of 2 kids, she is used to finding the calm in the midst of chaos. Amanda believes that the unexpected moments can really make wedding photo galleries really special. Her all time favorite movies are Midnight in Paris and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Click here to view her tmInspired sample gallery.

Cooper and I needed extra care at the hospital for a few days after a very intense entrance into this new life. 39+ hours and an emergency c-section later, we’re thrilled to be home safe and sound as a new little family of 3.

We are forever grateful for our NICU nurses and Bree from @thebirthcollectivepnw. 💛

There are no words that can accurately describe our deep love for this little guy.

    Emma and Casey planned their Seattle wedding with Emma and Casey planned their Seattle wedding with one priority at the center of it all being fully present with the people they love.
-
Their wedding at MV Skansonia on Lake Union was not built around a checklist. It was designed around experience. They live on the East Coast but chose to get married in Washington because this would be the only time in their lives that all of their people would be together in one place. Family. Chosen family. Friends who do not leave the dance floor. Every decision they made reflected that intention.
-
They wrote personal notes to every guest and placed them at each setting. They saved two front row seats at their ceremony in honor of Casey’s parents. They created space in their timeline to slow down and take in each moment instead of racing through it. Their first look was full of joy, the kind that happens when you are fully yourself with your person.
-
This is what it looks like when a wedding day becomes a meaningful experience. When your love story is the focus and every detail honors the people who shaped it.
-
If you value an elevated wedding experience grounded in emotion, connection, and presence, we share that vision. Weddings like this are a reminder that the best celebrations are the ones that feel true to you.
-
This wedding was documented by lead associate photographer Madison from my team who shares the same storytelling approach and client experience that I personally uphold. Our couples who choose an associate photographer package are always paired with their photographer intentionally and well in advance so the process feels personal, supported, and seamless.

    This season has stretched me in ways I did not exp This season has stretched me in ways I did not expect. Photographing weddings while pregnant required more intention, more planning, and more strength than I have ever had to bring to my work. But it also reminded me why I love what I do.
-
There is something sacred about documenting people in emotional seasons of life. Promise. Growth. Transition. Becoming. Maybe that is why this work felt even more meaningful to me this year. I showed up to every wedding carrying new life, and instead of pulling me away from my purpose, it brought me closer to it. I felt it every time I pressed the shutter, every time I witnessed a quiet moment between loved ones, every time a story unfolded in front of me and I got to preserve it.
-
It is a vulnerable thing to share this. Not because pregnancy is fragile, but because I know how easily people assume your identity changes the moment you step into motherhood. My priorities are evolving, yes. But passion does not disappear when life expands. Creativity does not fade. Devotion to intentional storytelling does not weaken. I still care deeply about this work and always will.
-
To every couple who trusted me this year and made space for me in this season, I am grateful. Your kindness and support were never expected but truly felt. To my associate team, thank you for showing up with heart and excellence, for serving our couples with the same care I would, and for carrying the soul of this brand forward. I could not have done this year without you.
-
I am building both a family and a legacy of storytelling and I am proud of both. Stepping into motherhood is not the end of anything. It is the expansion of everything. ✨ I cannot wait to carry this new depth into the stories I tell next.
    The truth of a wedding day lives in the quiet spac The truth of a wedding day lives in the quiet spaces.
-
I photographed this wedding at one of my favorite wedding venues, Chateau Lill in Woodinville, WA. I worked under my friend Jaimie @ridgewoodfilms, and what I loved most was how present everyone was. Emotion threaded through the entire day.
-
Featured here are a few of my favorite moments: A father realizing his daughter has stepped into a new chapter of her life and feeling the weight of that moment settle in. Grandparents linking arms as they walked into cocktail hour. Friends wiping joyful tears from their eyes during vows. Champagne being poured while laughter echoed through the vineyard. Four little kids watching their parents dance and seeing love in motion.
-
These moments were not staged. They were witnessed. They are proof that a wedding is about more than a timeline or a pretty location. It is about the people who built your story with you. It is about connection.
-
That is why my team and I focus on storytelling wedding photography. The in between moments matter. They help you remember not only how your wedding looked but how it truly felt.
-
If you are planning a wedding in Washington and you want a photographer who documents emotion with intention and honesty, I would love to connect. My team and I are booking 2026 and 2027 wedding dates.
