    Emma is the best!

    We are so SO happy that Emma was a part of our engagement shoot & wedding day. We were worried we would be a little awkward being the subject of a photoshoot, but she makes everything fun and comfortable. She is such a pro, so kind, and a joy to work with and the results are amazing! We ended up using her photos for our save the dates, invitations, AND thank you cards because we love them so much. We definitely hope to work with her anytime we need a photographer in the future!

    Wow, just wow!

    “Wow, just wow!” (Me, viewing our wedding photos for the first time). Emma Lee Photography photographed our wedding in July 2022, and she is incredible. Emma communicated clearly and promptly, so we always knew what was happening, and she made sure our needs were met. She showed up on time, was professional with our friends and family members, and honored the groom’s request of a short photo session after our ceremony, so we could get to the party.

    The photos are stunning. I cannot look at our gallery without bursting into happy tears. Emma captured the essence of our day, and it is pure magic. If you are looking for wedding photography in the Pacific Northwest, look no further. Our day was a dream.

    Amazzingggggg

    Emma was one of the best parts of our wedding. She was so fantastic to work with and fun! The photos turned out AMAZING and we love all of them. Emma helped with the timeline and was happy to help in anyway she could. All the guests loved her and commented about how great she was. We can’t wait to do more pictures with her in the future and tell all our friends to hire her.

    Best Decision!!

    Emma is the photographer ever! She captures the best photos! She worked so closely with me to make sure all moments that were important to me were captured! I will never go anywhere else!!! Thank you for all of the beautiful photos of my special day!

    Beautiful memories to last a lifetime!

    Emma did an amazing job capturing all the special moments of our wedding day! Knowing some of the behind the scenes drama that existed, she found ways to bring out the best in people in the moments that mattered. I appreciated the creative posing, the extra shooter, and really...not really knowing she was there as she didn't create a lot of attention on herself to still get the best shots. I am SO happy with the shots and am thankful to have such beautiful memories captured to share for many years to come!

    Emma Lee Photography's reply:

    Emily, you're the best! Thank you so much. I love your photos - your wedding day was beautiful! There was so much joy on your wedding day, you made it easy for me to get all the special moments!

    Amazing photographer!

    We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our engagement pictures and wedding! Emma was communicative, helpful, and professional. She made our wedding day smooth and impressed all of our guests. We’ve gotten one sneak peek picture and are obsessed with it! Can’t wait to see the rest. I highly recommend Emma for all your photography needs!

    Emma Lee Photography's reply:

    Thanks Taylor and Jordin! I am so happy to have been a part of your day - it was so beautiful! Can't wait to do family photos in the future :)

    Just lovely!

    We could not have found a better photographer for our engagement photos. From the first message I got in return from Emma, I knew she was lovely. Her enthusiasm had me sold! Not to mention, I love the elegance and quality of her photos. Emma, thank you for sharing my engagement photo excitement with me. I’m in love with our photos and couldn’t wait to send our our Christmas cards! Thank you for being flexible, accommodating, responsive, creative, prompt, and open to any of my ideas!
    We got our photo gallery rather quickly too! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Emma!

    We couldn't be happier! Emma is AMAZING!

    If you're looking for a photographer, seriously, stop your search and book Emma right NOW! Holy cow, she is amazing!!!! From the moment we met her, we were sold. She was professional, prepared, and detailed. We only interviewed one photographer for our wedding because it was obvious that not only is Emma's work amazing, but we had full confidence in her to be responsive and reliable. Also, as an interracial couple, we were worried about having the right lighting for both of us. We were honest about our concerns in the beginning and she was understanding and showed us additional work from her portfolio that put our minds at ease.

    As our original wedding plans unraveled due to COVID, she was incredibly patient and kind to us. We had about 3 or 4 different wedding plans due to developments in the pandemic and Emma was flexible and understanding the entire time. In the end, we kept our original wedding date and had a small wedding with about 12 people. We rented an Airbnb with a garden and we were concerned that there wouldn't be enough photo-worthy shots. But, oh boy, did Emma make it work. Our photos are phenomenal! We can't stop looking at them. And because our wedding was so small, everyone there got to interact with her and everyone raved about how amazing she was. In the end, we could not be happier. Our photos are stunning. Emma made sure we were happy with each and every photo. We can't wait to hire her again for future shoots -- we really hope that she is in our lives for a long time. You will not be disappointed with Emma. If you think her work is amazing, book her! You won't be disappointed by the service and professionalism she provides and the amazing person that she is. We feel so lucky to have found her!

    Incredible Photos with a Great Person Behind The Camera

    Emma was wonderful to work with and she captured so many great candid photos of my wife and I on our wedding day! I highly recommend her, as she has an incredible amount of talent and was easy to work with.

    Thank you Asif! You and Miranda were wonderful to work with! Such a beautiful wedding you had - I loved shooting in the city!

    Emma is Incredible!

    We could not be happier with our decision to hire Emma to be our wedding photographer! We did an engagement session and had her and her assistant on site on our wedding day. We are the kind of people who hate posing and getting photographed and were dreading being the subject of so many photos but Emma truly made it an enjoyable and painless experience. She worked fully within our comfort zone and managed to get some of the most amazing photos we will cherish forever. Her communication was excellent and she made sure we were all on the same page about what we wanted her to focus on at our wedding. She managed to capture so many unforgettable moments at our wedding, which was especially impressive with our guest list at ~250. We were also worried about the challenges that the lighting situation at our venue would present for taking photos but Emma is amazing and you could never tell that the venue was dimly lit in the photos she took. On top of all this, Emma was an absolute delight to work with. Thank you Emma!

    (We were married on 11/16/2019 but I can't figure out how to change it on this review...)

    Emma Lee Photography's reply:

    Rena you are the best! Thank you for the kind words - working with you and Tom was AMAZING. I wish you could get married again so we could do it all over - it was such a fun day!

    Wonderful photos and service!

    Emma did a wonderful job photographing our wedding! Emma is friendly and personable, easy to work with and very professional. And the photos turned out great! Love her photography style, we wanted mostly candid shots that felt authentic to our casual and intimate wedding, as well as some portraits, and we’re very happy with the results. Her rates are very reasonable for the value delivered. Definitely would recommend!

    Fun, personable, skilled, wonderful Emma!

    TL;DR: EMMA IS THE BEST
    Emma's style caught my eye because it was different from the others: not oversaturated, not glowy, just this perfect, real-life-but-better photography style that captured, more than anything, the essence of the emotions that I hoped to have on my big day. Meeting her for our engagement pictures, I was amazed at how natural and fun she made everything feel-- my then-fiance and I are super awkward for pictures! We were pleased with how they turned out and felt confident about her for the wedding. But even that experience didn't prepare me for just how perfect of an addition she and her second, Kayla, were at the wedding itself. They blended into the background when they needed to, provided efficient, time-considerate directions for posing pictures, and danced and chatted, all while taking what have turned out to be the most stunning pictures I could have dreamed of. She sent me an album of perfectly edited photographs, of which I "liked" 466. I still have no idea how I will narrow down ones to print-- a lucky problem to have! The feedback from friends and family has been overwhelmingly positive, both about Emma and Kayla's personalities and the photos themselves. I could not have asked for a better experience with a photographer.

    Emma was wonderful at capturing the important details of our wedding! I forgot to have someone record the ceremony but the pictures told the story themselves so I'm very thankful!!! She is very personable to work with as well and I highly recommend :)

    Emma is the best!

    Emma is a great photographer! She captured our wedding in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, perfectly. Emma is very professional, and enquired thoroughly about all our wishes before the big day. During the day, she was just everywhere where she needed to be (as we saw afterwards from all the wonderful shots). And even though many of our guests did not speak English, Emma managed to communicate with all of them. She involved them in her work with her enthusiasm, inviting attitude and amazing personality. We would recommend Emma to everyone, where ever you may live.

    Emma Lee Photography's reply:

    Sylvia! Thank you so much. I would travel to Amsterdam to photograph you and Alex any day! Your wedding was so beautiful, and so much fun. Amazing day!!!

    Emma was amazing!! Her personality fit ours perfectly and she was so sweet and professional through our entire wedding experience. We had told her we wanted mostly candid shot and she delivered on that. We have so many special moments that were captured for our ceremony and for our reception. My husband and I were planning our Washington wedding from South Carolina so things got stressful at times. Emma was such a peaceful and calm presence and she really made us feel at ease about all of the photography plans. She was amazing at taming our massive family for group pictures and very patient during times of chaos ha. She captured the most perfect day of our lives with the most perfect pictures.

    Emma was amazing! From start to finish. She caught all our special memories, took beautiful candid and posed portraits -- worked with bright sunlight, indoor and lowlight -- and was a pleasure to have around. Choosing Emma was one of the best decisions we made planning our wedding! Highly recommend :)

    Emma photographed my husband and I, and it was such a magical, fun experience! We were laughing, and feeling very in the moment, and the session felt so comfortable with her. She has a great way of making you feel confident and beautiful (or handsome!) while being photographed. The photos turned out so perfect, and I can’t wait until my next photo session with her, now!

    We booked Emma to do our October wedding. She was absolutely fantastic! On top of her skillz as a photo taking genius she offers a lot of value. She offers a free engagement session which we took advantage of (great photos/nice to get to know her ahead of the wedding). She really enjoys getting to know her clients and capturing peoples special moments. This is demonstrated through her blog which she updates for each photo shoot (including a cool note about each couple and experience). During the event she was like a bossy ninja! This is exactly what is needed. She took control when it was time to do photos and was a photo ninja capturing moments throughout the event. She was very easy to work with, always offering prompt responses. All the photos came out perfect. She really did a great job! We would highly recommend her to friends and family. Thanks Emma!!

    My husband and I have been working with Emma for our family sessions since my daughter was born in 2013 so when we had to pick someone to capture our wedding photos, she was at the top of our list. Emma is kind, communicative, professional and enormously talented. She captures memories, not photographs and she does so with such skill, making everyone feel comfortable and beautiful. The joy, love and happiness of our day is alive and vibrant in her photos and I could not be more satisfied with the art she created. I truly cannot recommend her any more!

    Emma review

    My new husband and I agree, hiring Emma was in our top two BEST wedding decisions. Throughout the process from first contact, to consultation, through our events and then her lightning-fast delivery of the gorgeous photos, she was amazing. She was super flexible with converting our engagement shoot to a rehearsal dinner shoot, as well as staying later than originally planned the night of the wedding. She showed up on time to everything, confirmed ahead of time on the days of the dinner and wedding and she listened to what we wanted. And man she delivers! Our pictures capture the action, energy and emotion of each special moment. She's great with capturing different light and giving direction to big groups while totally blending into the event. Somehow Emma quickly learned every name of our wedding party so she could direct almost as a friend! She also initiated shots for the special people in our lives like my bridal crew with their SOs and families. They are all gushing and planning their Christmas cards with these photos now! We would 1000% hire her again and probably will for our next photo event.

    Emma went above and beyond as our photographer. She periodically checked in with us throughout our engagement, and was so helpful in directing us whenever we had a question about anything! She also was quick to recommend other trusted vendors who she knew or offer ideas when we were stumped on something. She was like a part time wedding coordinator! As a photographer, Emma is very professional. She comes early to everything, plans ahead, and captures great moments. I would definitely recommend Emma!

    Emma Lee Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Mindy! I loved working with you - your engagement photos are some of my favorite I've ever taken!
