This is the photographer to go for

I honestly don’t even know where to start we are completely blown away by our engagement photos. From the very first email, Keith made everything feel so easy and seamless. Our photographer was a total pro but also felt like a friend, he arrived with a solid plan that had and extraordinary outcome. He guided us in a way we enjoyed being in front of the lens and were confident in every shot.
This irreplicable moment with Mount Rainier in the background was captured so perfectly every bit of emotion our emotions are right there, forever still. Even when we moved locations and kept shooting into the next day, his energy and creativity never flagged. He is a pro for using the scenery to his advantage while telling a story. We’re so grateful for his skill, talent and kindness that we’ll treasure forever. If you want a photographer who truly cares about you, your partner and your story, look no further than Anchor and Lace

Proposal Photo Shoot

Keith was very professional, responsive, and helpful from the first phone call we had! He helped scout and plan angles and lighting prior to a surprise proposal shoot. He was very thoughtful to always keep communications “safe” as to not accidentally spoil the surprise.

After the proposal, we ended up running out of sunlight, to utilize the remaining photoshoot time so he offered to regroup another day to utilize the remaining time.

Keith is very easy to work with and brings an energy to the shoot that makes everyone comfortable. We were very happy with the results!

Surprise of a lifetime

My now fiancé surprised me with not only our proposal but also an engagement shoot with Lace and Anchor. Keith was incredible, after the proposal he gave us some time to decompress and was flexible with our needs. He was kind and made us feel comfortable the entire time. He got to know us during our session which made the experience feel authentic to who we are. We will cherish the these pictures for a lifetime.

Couldn't be happier.

Keith, you are amazing. Thank you for being awesome. Meg and I couldn't be happier with the day, the moment and of course, the photos. Thank you so much for celebrating with us and capturing this moment in perfection!

So many beautiful photos!

Keith, of Anchor & Lace, took our beautiful engagement and wedding photos. He easily put as at ease during our engagement session - which isn't exactly easy to do when you're meeting up with a stranger to photograph you in the middle of the day on one of Tacoma's city streets. Because of our comfort and the distance at which he takes the photos (the beautiful scenery is always highlighted), he was able to really capture our essense as individuals and as a couple. The only thing to keep in mind- didn't really notice until the photos were back- is that we did not get many close-up shots. If that is something important to you, let him know and I'm sure he is able to accomodate!
Even though we were able to show Keith a new spot to shoot in Tacoma, he brought needed knowledge and experience to guide us on the day of our wedding. Being concerned about the rain predicted that day and our plans to be outside, he left me assured that we had great options at Point Defiance Park for whatever the day brought. Our photos in the Rose Garden are a highlight looking back at the day.
Also, we love the options that come with getting the photos in triplicate - B&W, color and "vintage".

The most AMAZING photographers!

We absolutely LOVED working with Keith and Alexis. They made our wedding day a DREAM come true and we also love love them as human beings. We hit it off with them from the start and LOVED every single moment we had with them and our pictures turned out so beautiful! We cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us.

Amazing Photography and Wonderful People!

My wife Rachel and I booked Alexis and Keith for our wedding at Thornewood Castle. They were absolutely amazing. They gave us a document to fill out ahead of time that was very in depth with lists of photo preferences, groups, and ideas. At the time, I wondered if it was really necessary, but Alexis and Keith were incredibly efficient on the day of our wedding. They used this document to capture everything we wanted and more, but were also creative, improvisational, and open to requests. In short, trust their process, because they know what they’re doing!

The photos turned out amazing and have perfectly captured our wedding day. We and our families will enjoy these photos for years to come.

Also, Keith took our engagement photos, which were included in our package. If you have the opportunity to do the same, we recommend it!

Finally, Keith and Alexis were kind, funny, and got along with all of our guests seamlessly. Photos can sometimes be hard after a ceremony and everything, so this helped make the whole experience enjoyable even when we were tired.

Thank you, Keith and Alexis! You both are amazing!

We couldn't have asked for anything better!

My brother and sister-in-law used Keith and Alexis for their wedding in 2018, and their photos came out so beautifully! So when it came time to plan my own wedding, I knew I had to reach out to see if they were available, and continue the relationship they had built with my family.
While we were initially debating between Keith and a more local photographer (we got married in Upstate New York), we could not have been happier with our decision to go with Keith! He made sure we were comfortable and prepared during every step of the process. We were lucky enough to do an engagement shoot with him in the Spring of 2023 in our Brooklyn neighborhood, and had such beautiful photos to use for all future wedding events from that session.
For our wedding itself, Keith gave us clear instructions how to structure our shot list and make sure we got all the photos we wanted. He was so helpful in working with us and our wedding planner to ensure the day ran smoothly and on time. He was very easy to communicate with via email and text, and was very responsive to all of our questions and ideas.
On the wedding day itself, Keith and his associate, Chris, were a dream team. They made everyone feel at ease and like we were being photographed by our close friends. They were professional, funny, personable, and great with my young niece and nephew.
The photographs themselves are so stunning and unique. While we did get plenty of standard shots and family shots, Keith and Chris also delivered with unique, romantic shots that we will cherish forever.
I was so sad when the wedding ended because it meant we wouldn't be working with Keith anymore! We can't recommend them highly enough and are so glad to know we have a friend to see when we visit the Seattle area!

Great Experience!

Keith has a great eye and is a real pro. He was very personable, responsive and thorough. His pictures of our wedding perfectly captured our style. He did an amazing job of assessing the landscape of our venue, the theme of the decor, and vibe of our guests and brought them all to one a singular visual history. He's not afraid to get a little dirty to get just the right shot. Keith is a great value at any price, but you'll be pleasantly surprised at how he compares in that department against comparably acclaimed photographers in the Seattle area.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Alexis & Keith's creative eye result in photographs that are truly stunning. As a makeup artist, I see hundreds of weddings captured through the lens, but Alexis Stein's photos revealed the true personality of everyone in the room, the gallery of photos expressed the range of emotions that the bride experiences and truly captured the energy in the preparation room, the venue and the ceremony. I was very proud to be associated with Alexis Photography.
