About

We're Josh and Kate — a husband-and-wife wedding photography team based in Snohomish, Washington. We've been doing this together for over 15 years, we've photographed 640+ weddings, and we're still the couple that gets a little teary during first looks. (That's mostly Kate. Josh is behind the other camera pretending he's fine.)

Here's the thing about wedding photography that nobody tells you: the photos you'll care about in 20 years aren't the ones where everyone was perfectly arranged with their hands in exactly the right spot. They're the ones where something real was happening. Your maid of honor whispering "you look incredible" while she fixes your veil. Your partner seeing you for the first time and completely short-circuiting. Your grandma on the dance floor doing something no one expected.

That's what photograph. It's what we've always focused on.

We call our approach documentary-editorial — we're there in the middle of it, catching the moments as they happen, not yanking you away from your cocktail hour for a 45-minute photo session in a field somewhere. When we do portraits, they're efficient, relaxed, and look like you — not like you're auditioning for a stock photo.

Our editing philosophy is something we call Color Integrity. Your wedding photos should look like your wedding looked. Real skin tones. Accurate colors. No heavy-handed filters, no orange-everyone, no desaturated moodiness that'll look dated in three years. We edit for timelessness because your photos should hold up for decades, not just for the Instagram algorithm this month.

The experience and logistics stuff, since that matters too: 640+ weddings across over 100 venues in the greater Seattle and Snohomish County area. We know the venues — the good light spots, the backup plans when the PNW decides to PNW, the timelines that actually work versus the ones that look good on paper. We've been featured in HuffPost, Style Me Pretty, and PNW Weddings, we've earned WeddingWire Couples' Choice awards for 10+ consecutive years, and we're members of the Snohomish Wedding Guild. We publish our pricing right on our website because we think your time is worth more than a guessing game.

We're not for everyone, and we're genuinely okay with that. If you want heavy posing, trendy filters, and a photographer who disappears for an hour with your bridal party — there are great people who do that. But if you want your wedding to look like your wedding, photographed by two people who've built their entire career on showing up, paying attention, and caring way too much — that's us.

Come look through our work and see if it feels right.

So much more than photography

When looking for a photographer, I wasn't sure that I would be able to find someone that met our needs and fit in our budget. Gsquared offers payment plans, which made them a possibility. I would say that they over delivered. They provided helpful articles about all aspects of wedding planning. Response time to questions was always quick and consistent. They made sure we were all set leading up the wedding and blew us away on the day. Kate and Josh made sure we were well taken care of, kept the wedding moving along, and navigated the varying needs of our family and wedding party. They were present when needed and blended into the background when appropriate to get beautiful candid shots. I would seriously consider them if you're looking to reduce your stress levels on the big day. They are so much more than photographers.

Best decision we made!!

Kate from Gsquared was the most amazing support I had during my entire wedding! She wasn't just the most amazing photographer and wedding coordinator but she was there for me emotionally! She takes the most amazing photos, she manages the vendors she decorates. She comes up with crazy wonderful ideas, but she also supports you when you need it the most! I'm not sure what we would have done without her! We shopped around a lot before we found her.. it was the most amazing investment worth every penny, which is awesome because she was surprisingly affordable!! She walked us through the entire process from engagement photos, explaining to us the do's and don'ts, to how to make things easier on our selves. She made our day extra special! She is tiny but mighty in every way.. i was blown away by all of the things that she does that none of the other places we looked at do.. she coordinated, everything perfectly and our wedding turned out better than I ever imagined. She made it a dream come true! She is smart, talented, and will back you up when you need her too! She is the best decision that we made other than marrying each other! If you don't choose her for your photographer and wedding coordinator you will be wasting your money! I'm so blessed to know her! Thank you Kate for everything!!

Kate and Josh of GSquared Photography are genuinely THE BEST vendors we came across during our wedding planning journey.

Kate and Josh of GSquared Photography are genuinely THE BEST vendors we came across during our wedding planning journey. There are a few key things they brought to the table that absolutely earned a 10/10 rating: communication, organization, creative vision, experience, quality of services and value-for-cost.

Kate and Josh are excellent communicators and more organized than I’ve seen any other vendor in this space. The resources they share in the customer portal cover everything from collecting photo inspiration to explaining where to start when planning a wedding. If you are the first in your family or friend group to get married and want some extra support throughout the planning process, Kate and Josh are INCREDIBLE resources for everything wedding related. They also regularly checked in on us months in advance to ask if we needed support or guidance with literally anything, and on a number of occasions they were able to help us get unstuck. We learned that they’ve been shooting weddings since 1997, and Kate even spent some time as a wedding coordinator. The breadth and depth of their experience is clear, and was so valued throughout the duration of our planning and our wedding day.

We cannot speak highly enough about the quality of services GSquared provided and the amazing creative vision they brought day-of. Every photo looks stunning, is tastefully edited, and subtly ties in unique aspects of our venue and wedding party. It was so much fun to watch Kate and Josh read each others minds; while one was busy collecting and posing people, the other would step back and find a creative way to tie in our surroundings to set up an incredible shot. There were a few occasions where one of them turned around after posing people and teased the other for taking their idea for where to shoot from.

Day-of we felt like we saw so many sides of Kate and Josh. When appropriate, they were chatty and attentive while listening to our stories, commanding while shuffling family members in and out of all the group photos we wanted, and so much fun joining us on the dance floor a few times. Throughout it all, we could tell that they enjoyed their jobs and cared deeply that we were getting what we wanted from their services.

Which brings me to value for the cost. Throughout planning a wedding there were loads of times I thought to myself, "I’m paying way too much for this thing." That thought could not have been further away in my mind each time I interacted with Kate and Josh. After the event we genuinely felt that we had gotten such an incredible deal for the money we spent compared to everything they helped with, before, during and after our wedding day.

If you are looking for a photographer who is incredibly experienced, organized, professional and offers amazing value for the cost, look no further!

Josh + Kate with GSquared Photography are Absolutely Incredible!

From the moment I met Josh and Kate at the Seattle Bridal Expo, I knew they were the perfect photographers for our wedding. Their energy, professionalism, and passion for what they do are unmatched! Kate was an absolute powerhouse—she not only captured every shot flawlessly but also kept our timeline on track and became my right-hand gal for anything and everything.

She literally ran and slid across the floor just to get the perfect shot, but her dedication didn’t stop there. She constantly checked in to make sure I ate, kept my drink full, made sure I was comfortable in my shoes, and even reminded me about bustling my dress. She truly went above and beyond in every way.

And if that wasn’t impressive enough—just six days after our wedding, they delivered our entire gallery! I was expecting to wait around 10 weeks, but somehow, they worked their magic at lightning speed without sacrificing quality. That kind of turnaround is insane for wedding photos, and I still can’t believe it!

On top of being phenomenal photographers, they also offer wedding coordination and write blogs that were so helpful throughout the planning process. I am beyond grateful for Josh and Kate—if you want photographers who will capture your day perfectly, take care of you every step of the way, and deliver stunning photos faster than you could ever imagine, GSquared Photography is the only choice!

Worth their weight in gold!

Kate and Josh were the best vendors of our wedding by far! They provided helpful guides leading up to the wedding, showed up early, helped fix my (the bride’s) hair and made it look incredible, took INCREDIBLE photos, provided sneak peeks within 24 hours, and made us feel at ease the whole time. Guests commented how they danced on the dance floor while taking pictures and were impressed by their ability to corral our large family so smoothly. We would 110% recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer that goes above and beyond.

Best Wedding Photo Experience!

Kate and Josh are the best! We used them for both the engagement and wedding photos and I am obsessed with the photos. Kate was so helpful with picking out outfits and a location for our engagement shoot. We really wanted to show off the Pacific Northwest and Kate found us the best location. When the wedding day came they were both so calm and collected I didn’t have to worry about if we were on schedule or what we needed to do next, Kate had everything under control. This allowed both my husband and I to be present in the day and soak up all that was happening around us. Throughout the whole day they laughed with us, danced with us and showered us with complements. We had the best day with vendors who felt like friends and were just as excited to be there as we were!

They made our day truly special!

Kate and Josh were absolutely amazing!!!

Our day would not have been what it was without their incredible attention to detail, energy, and professionalism!

From the first phone consultation all the way through the whole process, we knew that we had chosen the best available. When you work with GSquared you not only get an amazing photographer duo, but you also get an incredible amount of insight and experience from a business that has been making weddings amazing for many years.

Kate and Josh made our day unbelievably easy. Whether it was moving through our photos with unbelievable efficiency, having plates made up on our behalf, or making sure our cups never ran dry, we couldn't imagine how our day would have gone without all of their effort. It was like they were everywhere! Despite how present they were, they never seemed out of place.

All that, and we haven't even mentioned the photos. They were absolutely stunning! They captured our love and energy in a way that we didn't even know was possible. With so many to choose from it's difficult to say what our favorites were, we just loved them all so much!

If you choose to to work with GSquared, we can say without a doubt, you will not be disappointed!
