    Great Photography

    We hired Clinton for our wedding on July 30, 2022. He took our engagement photos as well. The photos for both turned out amazing! He was very organized on the wedding day with the photo schedule and took a lot of great candid photos as well. Our families and us are all very happy with how the photos turned out!

    Clinton is simply the best. A consummate professional, easygoing, a fantastic photographer and artist, and such a pleasure to work with. We picked Clinton because his work looked fantastic, because of his amazing (deserved) reviews, and we loved how he would be able to capture the wedding without "getting in the way". We had an engagement shoot a week before the wedding (I had been abroad), and it was magical. Clinton made it fun and a great experience. And the pictures looked amazing! Then at the wedding itself, Clinton was his usual amazing self, and the photos he captured were simply spectacular. It was a fantastic experience, from beginning to end.
    I can't recommend him highly enough. If you're trying to decide, just stop and pick Clinton.

    Clinton James is amazing! Roche Harbor Resort was our wedding venue and all the other vendors would ask who we chose for a photography. When I told them Clinton James, the feedback was unanimous, "Oh he's the best!" I concur with their remarks as well! Clinton was always responsive, extremely helpful with followup and captured all the amazing moments. For the family photos he gave great direction to everyone and the wedding party photos were super creative and fun! Having Clinton as our photographer was the best decision we made!

    Clinton is an exceptional photographer! He photographed our wedding at Roche Harbor Resort. I don't know how he did it, but he captured every single important moment and I didn't eve see him to it! All of a sudden BAM he's there. You name it we have them all and they are all perfect. The BEST part is we had ALL our photos in 2 days!!!! Before we even left on our honeymoon we had the photos in hand, just amazing. Photography was one of the most important things to me at my wedding and Clinton went above and beyond my expectations. He sent me a whole timeline and shared document before the event, which was great for me because I am a visual person. He coordinated the photo schedule with all other vendors so all I had to do was show up and get told where to go. He made my husband and I feel so at ease, and he captured amazing photos that looked natural and fun. He does not do a lot of staged shots which I loved, he mostly watched how we interacted and captured the sweetest moments. He is big on lighting so he made sure the lighting was right in each shot. I loved how he arranged a specific time in our day to also do family photos, with a big family like ours that to me that was going to be daunting, but he knew exactly how to lead the crowd and get right down to business. We now have wonderful family photos, my mother is so happy. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you Clinton!

    We found Clinton while clicking through the countless websites of wedding photographers in the greater Seattle area. Something about his photos just resonated with my husband and I - the lighting, the framing, the moments that were captured in each shot seemed to tell a story that emotionally affected me. We knew right away that this was the way we wanted our photos to look and feel. After much more research, we decided to meet with Clinton to view more of his work and get a sense of whether or not he would be a good choice to work with.

    Clinton was great at responding quickly and we soon set up a meeting in person where he was very professional, laid back, relaxed, and prepared. Again, we knew this was the photographer we wanted so we hired him for both an engagement session and our wedding day. He was very helpful answering all questions along the way and really captured exactly what we envisioned for our engagement session. We couldn't wait to see what he would capture on our wedding day.

    Again, leading up to the big day, Clinton was very thorough and reviewed with me in detail the shots that we wanted. On the day of, he worked efficiently with our timeline and the other vendors. Needless to say, the whole day went perfectly. Clinton and his assistant were professional from beginning to end and really proved to be completely capable of capturing the biggest day of our lives. Our photographs are stunning and I am so happy that we chose to work with him. If you wish to have beautiful pieces of art to reflect on your big day and remember all the details and emotional moments, Clinton is the way to go.

    I can't stop talking about Clinton. His creative eye and professionalism captured our wedding day exactly the way I envisioned. He kept the entire shoot organized, he made sure We for the shots we wanted and was completely easy going with our "do what you want" style. Amazing. I would recommend him to everyone I meet and I plan on using him at every opportunity in the future.

    Finding a photographer is so personal. Yet, when I looked at Clinton James’ photography for the first time, I felt like I knew the couple, as though I was being told their story through photography. Clinton’s photo-journalistic style was a perfect match for me and my fiancé. We planned a wedding 2 states away from our venue, which had the potential to be very stressful, but Clinton put me at ease, and I had complete confidence in him. He worked with our budget which was a huge help. Thanks also to his assistant Kevin who was a great second photographer. The entire process, from first contacting Clinton, to setting up a FaceTime meeting to kick things off, to our in-person meeting closer to our wedding date were easy, constructive and fun! Fast forward to our wedding day and Clinton took our visions, collaborations and put them into his process; what resulted in our end product was our own story of our wonderful wedding day, our personalities and all the feelings that we didn't know could be captured on film. I would be happy to recommend or work with Clinton again.

    Clinton James is one in a million. I knew the moment I saw his website online that he would take amazing photos. When I met with Clinton I immediately knew he was the one I wanted to have take those amazing photos. On the day of the wedding he made everyone feel at ease. He got everything we asked for and more. He was professional, easy going and has a wonderful personality. He made us laugh, he made us cry, and he contributed to some memories I will never forget. I cannot thank him enough for the amazing work he did on our wedding day. You cannot go wrong in hiring him.

    Clinton is simply amazing - he's got a great sense of humor that will put you at ease in front of the camera. He made sure we got the engagement photos we wanted and on the day of the wedding there were times I didn't even know he was there. When we got the photos though, I knew he was there 100% - the pictures he selected captured the essence of the day perfectly. We also wanted a series of posed family photos and his organizational skills and ability to take charge in a friendly way got it done quickly so we could enjoy the important things - like eating and dancing!

    I highly recommend Clinton.
