Seattle Photographer Creating Intentional Images for Joyful Soulmates

Hi, I’m Taylor.

I’m a photographer who believes photos are about moments, not poses. When you’re with your people, you want to soak up the heartfelt words and touches. We all love a beautiful floral installation, but that’s not really what your wedding (or proposal or family session) is about. 

It’s about celebrating your relationships. It’s about having fun and stepping into your legacy.

As your Seattle photographer, I’ll document those breathtaking moments with timeless images. Forget chasing trends. Let’s create photos that capture your unique magic. 

This moment, this experience is for living. I can’t wait to step into this journey with you.

WORK WITH ME
Featured in
  • New wandering weddings badge
  • Get to know your Seattle photographer!

    • I split my time between the PNW and Orange County, California.
      My husband, Nathan, and I are from SoCal. Moving to Washington has been such an adventure. How could I not fall in love with the dramatic mountains and the moody light on the Puget Sound? The endless places to explore are a big reason I love photographing proposals and weddings. Well, that and the sweep-you-off-your-feet romance.
    • I’m a picky-eater-turned-foodie.
      Growing up, I would only eat a handful of things. Then I met my husband’s family. They were such adventurous eaters that it actually made me nervous. Eventually, they won me over. Now Nathan and I spend time seeking out new restaurants with cool vibes. Ask me for a rec in your city!
    • Nature inspires me endlessly.
       I wouldn’t call myself a backpacker, but I love a breathtaking view. Even the shadows of flowers on my curtains can captivate me. Add some prism window clings to the mix? It’s all over. I’ll watch the way light whimsically dances around me for ages. That’s why it’s such a big part of my photography.
    • We’re proud pawrents.
      Nathan and I have always been animal lovers. Our dog Daisy is a fluffy ball of endless energy. I don’t know what we’d do without her goofy antics and soft snuggles. Needless to say, you should absolutely bring your pet to our session.
  • how I found my purpose as a wedding photographer, a story told by a seattle based photographer
  • Unwavering dedication to your love story


    In a lot of ways, my approach to being a Seattle photographer is rooted in my own story. Nathan and I met in high school in Orange County, California. Life threw us quite a few curveballs – including a wildfire that forced us to relocate our wedding at the last minute. Through it all, we remained intentional about our relationship. And we have an awful lot of fun together. 

    Now we’re lucky enough to work as a Seattle photographer and videographer team. We get to travel the world documenting soulmates celebrating their love in front of their most important people. We feel so lucky that this is our job. 

    When I’m your Seattle photographer, I’ll bring my signature sense of playfulness and gratitude to your images.

    There is something special about coming together w There is something special about coming together with other creatives to build a world from imagination alone. Styled shoots are where ideas can stretch and breathe, where vendors get to explore the kind of beauty that does not need to fit into a wedding day timeline. It is play. It is art. It is community.
-
This Bridgerton inspired editorial at the Chateau Lill brought together so many talented hands and hearts. Pink and ivory drapery softly framing the dining area, a serpentine reception table winding through the space, and a meadow of wildflowers blooming right down the center. Every detail felt like a fresh interpretation of the venue, almost as if the space itself was part of the story.
-
Collaborative shoots like this remind me why I love working in the wedding world. When florists, planners, designers, and photographers and various other wedding vendors come together with a shared vision, something magic happens. Creativity expands. Inspiration grows. And couples get to see what is possible when artistry meets intention.
-
This day was a beautiful reminder that the wedding community is at its best when we lift each other up and create for the love of it. ✨

    There are places that stay with you long after you There are places that stay with you long after you leave. California is one of those places for me. It is where I started my business and photographed some of my very first weddings. It’s where I learned how deeply I love this work. One of those early weddings was for a dear friend of this bride, and years later, at Danza Del Sol Winery for Aimmee’s celebration, it felt like life had quietly brought everything full circle.
-
There is something special about returning to the roots of your story. The familiar warmth, the color, the way the sun sits differently in the sky. Even though I live in Seattle now, California still feels like an early chapter that shaped everything that came after.
-
This day was photographed by my associate photographer Amanda whose heart for storytelling mirrors the intention behind everything we do. When a couple chooses us, no matter where their celebration takes place, we show up with care, presence, and genuine gratitude.
-
Serving couples along the west coast keeps reminding me how connected this work truly is. Stories travel. Love carries across state lines. And sometimes you find yourself exactly where you started, but with deeper purpose than before.

    Some places feel like home the moment you step int Some places feel like home the moment you step into them. Cannon Beach has always been that place for me, and it was clear it holds the same kind of comfort for Mackenzie and Matthew. They chose to celebrate their step into marriage in the way that felt most true to them quietly, intentionally, and without any pressure to perform for anyone else.
-
It was just the two of them and my team with a camera, wandering along the coastline under a soft overcast sky. Lace gloves, an airy veil, the kind of muted light that lets every small moment feel tender and calm. Nothing rushed. Just a sweet afternoon with the person who feels like home.
-
We encourage our couples to choose whatever wedding experience feels right for them. Some want a room full of people cheering them on. Others want a slow morning and a quiet walk along the Oregon coast. Both are equally meaningful when they reflect your story.
-
This elopement was photographed by Hannah from my associate team who approaches days like this with the same intention and care that define our work. Whether your celebration is full of loved ones or beautifully private, we create space for it to feel honest, personal, and entirely your own.

From above you can feel the quiet of this walk. Two people hand in hand on their way to a celebration with the people they love. The long train trailing behind. The shadows holding the shape of connection. A pause before the energy of the night picked up.
-
As photographers with years of experience, we do not just document what is happening. We anticipate what could become unforgettable. A shift in light. A change in perspective. A moment that deserves space to breathe. Sometimes that means stepping in close to honor emotion. Other times it means stepping back to capture the poetry of a scene like this.
-
Storytelling is not just about taking more photos. It is about paying attention to the moments that matter.

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.

    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.
