Great Pictures & Time Management
Joanna shot our wedding earlier this year, and the pictures are outstanding! Joanna is not only a great photographer; she is a great stage manager, too! Throughout the wedding day, she scheduled the proper amount of time for the photos we requested, including those with our wedding party and families. Joanna and her assistant were both efficient and personable. They kept things moving, while also keeping the mood light and helping us and our wedding party feel comfortable. We got all the photos we wanted and didn’t feel like we missed out on our reception at all.Joanna shot our wedding earlier this year, and the pictures are outstanding!

High quality and a great experience!
Joanna has been amazing to work with during our wedding process. When we first met her to go over our vision, she took a lot of time to make sure we would get what we were looking for. The day of the wedding she made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera and did a great job at engaging our guests for photos. She is such an easy person to work with and a true master of her craft. And of course our photos turned out gorgeous! I would highly recommend Joanna!Joanna has been amazing to work with during our wedding process.

Working with Joanna has been delightful!
Working with Joanna has been delightful! When we met her during the Snohomish wedding tour we immediately felt comfortable with her and knew we wanted her to be a part of our wedding. My partner and I went into engagement photos feeling nervous and unsure of what to expect. Joanna helped us loosen up with jokes and guidance. She made the session fun and we were able to enjoy the experience. On our wedding day we had Joanna and her assistant Laura. They both went above and beyond to ensure all the photos we wanted were taken and that we were able to thoroughly enjoy our day. It did not feel like we were stuck posing for formal photos for hours even though that’s what it basically was.Working with Joanna has been delightful!

Amazing Seattle Photographer
My family and I loved working with Joanna! She was very communicative, professional, and efficient. The photos turned out so much better than I could have imagined, and she made the process fun too! Grateful we found Joanna, and highly recommend working with her.My family and I loved working with Joanna! She was very communicative, professional, and efficient.

Wonderful Wedding Photographer!
Joanna was the photographer we hired to do both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Our experience working with her was simply amazing! Joanna was hands down the easiest and most delightful vendor we worked with throughout the wedding planning process and during the event itself. She was great at putting us (not the most comfortable with photos) at ease. She regularly checked in and offered up help as the wedding date approached. And our pictures turned out amazingly well. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly, highly recommend booking her for your wedding!!!Joanna was the photographer we hired to do both our engagement photos and our wedding photos.

We loved working with Joanna!
We absolutely loved working with Joanna! From our first meeting at her cozy studio she was fun, easy to talk to, and made us feel totally comfortable. We generally loved chatting and getting to know her and she was meticulous throughout the planning process about our timeline (giving initial recommendations and working with our coordinator directly to refine) and noting what people groupings and types of photos we wanted. At our wedding, Joanna and her assistant were so fun (it felt like having another friend there) and they had our entire wedding party and families relaxed and enjoying themselves (which made for great pictures!). They were also seemingly everywhere at once! We got our beautiful photos back faster than expected and they exceeded my expectations for full coverage of the event: lots of both candids and posed, as well as tons of detail/décor/venue photos that we didn’t think to take ourselves. We also loved doing the in-person gallery reveal at Joanna’s studio – it was so fun getting to relive the event and to see (and hear the story of) some of our guest’s candid moments we missed in real time. We cannot recommend Joanna enough!We absolutely loved working with Joanna! From our first meeting at her cozy studio she was fun, easy to talk to, and made us feel totally comfortable.

10/10 would hire again
I highly recommend Joanna. She captured our wedding PERFECTLY, and in every way I envisioned. She asked us what we wanted, made us laugh and feel so comfortable throughout, it was like having a close friend helping us who I could joke with along the way. I asked her to take a ridiculous photo of my two best friends and I, which made no sense to her yet she did not hesitate and captured exactly what we wanted. Could not have asked for a better experience!I highly recommend Joanna. She captured our wedding PERFECTLY, and in every way I envisioned.

Highly Recommend
We booked Joanna for our wedding, and she has been nothing but wonderful!
We started by having a consultation session with her. We planned everything by ourselves, and had no idea where to start at the time. Talking with Joanna was extremely helpful, and she gave us many great recommendations for other vendors.
We felt very comfortable having her on the wedding day. We’ve never gotten couple’s photos taken professionally, and she made us feel at ease in front of the camera. She is great at giving posing suggestions and finding beautiful spots around our venue(Belle Chapel). Due to road closure, plenty of the guests were late. We are very grateful that she went out of her way and stayed behind for an additional half an hour to take all the group photos we’d like. She even helped setup tripod with our own camera for recording.
We received our photos three weeks after the wedding. We love every single one of them. They are so genuine and full of love and joy. Having Joanna is one of the best decisions we’ve made for our wedding, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!We booked Joanna for our wedding, and she has been nothing but wonderful!

Joanna is the BEST!!
We hired Joanna to photograph our recent wedding- best decision ever. The photos turned out just stunning!! She is not only incredibly skilled in photography, but also the exact kind of person you want to work with for such an important day! We met with her at her studio before signing our contract to hire her and chatted for two hours drinking tea and beer (my husband lol) and she took us through every step of the process, but more than anything it felt like chatting with a great friend and just having fun! When she had finished editing our photos only about a month after the wedding she had us back over to her studio for a similar meeting. She showed us our photos and a beautiful slideshow she created on a huge screen and it was seriously almost as exciting as the actual wedding day. Her attention to detail combined with her extremely kind and outgoing personality made her the perfect person to photograph our wedding! Even her assistant at the wedding was amazing. Neither my husband or I like to be in pictures and both consider ourselves pretty unphotogenic but somehow Joanna actually made the wedding photos such a fun process and we both felt so comfortable. One of our flower girls was feeling a bit uncooperative during the photos and that’s when we learned that Joanna’s also a child whisperer and made the little ones feel so comfortable right away! We never had to worry for even a second about anything related to the photos during the entire planning process- and she’s super communicative always! Joanna’s truly just the kind of person you want to be around. She really helped ease my general stress during the day of- I feel so lucky to have been able to work with her for my special day.We hired Joanna to photograph our recent wedding- best decision ever.

Cannot imagine a better wedding photography experience!
Joanna was an absolute delight to work with for our engagement shoot, our wedding day, and everything in between. She is so welcoming and positive and exactly the kind of person you want around on your big day. She is very thorough with preparation so you know you are in good hands but she's also very flexible and can adjust on the fly when things inevitably change on your big day. Joanna is super communicative and answered every one of our questions quickly and completely. Her second shooter, Christine, was fantastic as well. Our family and friends commented multiple times on how delightful and efficient Joanna and her team were to work with. We are seriously obsessed with how our images came out, Joanna did an amazing job of capturing the typical couples photos and family portraits as well as ample candids of us and our guests all throughout the day. She also did an amazing job using all areas of our venue so we ended with an incredible variety of shots that we cannot wait to cherish forever. The in studio reveal was also such a special moment for us! We cannot recommend working with Joanna highly enough!Joanna was an absolute delight to work with for our engagement shoot, our wedding day, and everything in between.

Best photographer ever!
Joanna is an incredible photographer and an absolute pleasure to work with. She captured our wedding and to say we are blown away by the quality (and the amount) of beautiful photos we received is an understatement. She arrived early to begin capturing the day and needed very little direction as she knew exactly what to do (which is very helpful to a busy bride!). She sent a lovely questionnaire well in advance of the wedding to nail down all the shots we wanted and she just worked her magic! She captured the small details and the large! It’s so amazing to look back at our photos because on the day of our wedding we were so busy we didn’t even get a chance to see the small things like decor I’d put together etc and she captured literally everything! My husband and I aren’t models by any means, and don’t know how to pose well, but it was effortless with her and our photos turned out stunning. We look like we belong in a bridal magazine! We loved the energy she brought to our day. She is excited to try anything you have in mind and make your vision come to life. I simply do not know how I will choose even my top 20 favorites. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you Joanna! You are amazing!Joanna is an incredible photographer and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Morher of the bride
Joanna and her partner were amazing. They captured everything we wanted for our daughter’s wedding. The laughter the smiles the hugs and the unexpected. She was discreet and amazing. We could not fault her and her partner. Joanna had the proofs ready 2 weeks later and they were everything we wanted.Joanna and her partner were amazing.

Thank you, Joanna, for your amazing photographic eye as well as sense of humor!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Joanna! Not only is Joanna an amazing photographer that is able to eloquently capture those special moments, but she is also such a pleasure to be around. I am naturally a self-conscious person, so I was very nervous about our 1st time working with Joanna for our engagement photos. Joanna immediately put me at ease with her calming nature & hilarious sense of humor. Having a chance to work with Joanna during our engagement session made me more relaxed on our wedding day. I never expected I would use the word ‘relaxed’ to describe my wedding day, but Joanna was a big contributor in making that happen – I felt like I was hanging out with a good friend. Joanna captured so many moments throughout the evening that my now husband & I would have missed had she not been there. Following our wedding, Joanna had us over to her studio for the ‘big reveal’ of our wedding photos on her big screen TV. It was such a fun experience to re-live our event as well as share our stories. We can’t wait for an excuse to work with Joanna again to capture additional moments in life.It was an absolute pleasure working with Joanna!

Joanna brought the fun!
We absolutely loved working with Joanna. From our first phone call, we felt instantly at ease with her - a 30 minute call turned into 90 minutes because we were having a great time chatting! We didn't have the opportunity to do an engagement shoot because we were living outside of Seattle, but when she arrived at the venue on our wedding day she made us feel comfortable and familiar right off the bat. She did a wonderful job wrangling large families and small children for our (long) list of family photos and did it all with a smile and laughter. Throughout the planning process, she was responsive, helpful, and willing to go above and beyond to help us make our big day extra special. We couldn't have asked for a better addition to our wedding day and the photos she captured perfectly encapsulate the day!We absolutely loved working with Joanna.

Amazing photographer for our big day
From our engagement photos, to the wedding day, and to the big reveal, Joanna was nothing but professional while making us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Nothing felt forced or posed. Joanna guided us through the whole experience and delivered amazing photos, even in a grueling 90+ degree July day.
We couldn't have chosen a better fit for our wedding day! Thank you for the memories that we will cherish forever!From our engagement photos, to the wedding day, and to the big reveal, Joanna was nothing but professional while making us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.

Hire her!!
Joanna was our wedding photographer and she was exceptional. From our first meeting with her, she was personable and sweet wanting to know all the details on how my husband and I met and how he proposed. She explained her process in detail so we understood everything included. Her customer service level is top notch. She was always available to answer our questions over text or email. Engagement photo shoot went really well and helped us get familiar having our photo taken. Joanna always made sure we were comfortable. When we met to review our wedding timeline, she stayed an hour over our meeting time because she really wanted us to be happy with the time allotted for couple portraits because we weren’t doing a first look. On our wedding day, Joanna and her second photographer Christine, did a fantastic job - they kept things fun and light, made jokes to keep us smiling and laughing. After the wedding she revealed our wedding gallery in her studio with tea and biscuits - I mean how personable is that! She created a slideshow of the best photos and organized all photos into categories of the day. We (and our families after sharing the gallery) are in awe over the photos - Joanna and Christine perfectly captured us and our guests. She is also working on our wedding album and we are so excited to see the finished product. We will cherish these photos forever.

Amazing wedding photos!
Thanks to Joanna, we have beautiful memories from our COVID wedding! From the very first meeting, Joanna went above and beyond to make sure our special day was everything we wanted to be and more. She created and managed our wedding website which took a lot of stress off our backs. She also did our engagement shoot which allowed us time to get to know her better and get comfortable in front of the camera. Joanna was so flexible when we had to change our venue at the semi-last minute due to COVID and did everything she could to make the day easier for us. The photos turned out amazing and I love looking back at all the special moments she captured throughout the day!Thanks to Joanna, we have beautiful memories from our COVID wedding!

The photos turned out amazing and I love looking back at all the special moments she captured throughout the day! -

Great photography experience
Of all the vendors my wife and I worked with leading up to our wedding, Joanna was the best! Joanna did both my engagement and wedding - she was excellent! I have never taken professional photos before and was slightly apprehensive about the experience. Joanna is great at giving little instructions, encouragement and making you laugh during the shoot - all to bring out the best in the final product. I was thrilled with the quality of her photos after my engagement shoot and was relaxed and confident in her abilities on my wedding day!

Photographer & family friend for life
We started working with Joanna for a May '21 wedding about a year ahead. Of a ~dozen photographers recommended to us, she was the only one we reached out to - we loved the diversity of identities and body shapes of people she's worked with in the past. Our first conversation made it clear that she shared our priorities around inclusivity.
She and her team member Christine supported us through all the uncertainty and anxiety of trying to plan a wedding not knowing what things would be like in a year. She took the time to get to know us better, both in conversation and a quite thorough questionnaire, to better understand what we were looking for, what we were comfortable with, and how best to capture our event. While my partner and I have experience planning events, weddings are a whole other thing. Joanna encouraged and accommodated us where we had preferences and provided confident suggestions where we didn't. She was even able to provide recommendations for other vendors as needed. She kept us updated as event & wedding guidance in the county changed. When we changed plans and switched from a 100-guest wedding to a much smaller, socially distanced ceremony, she offered some creative ideas on how we could use the extra time, and made sure we got a bunch of amazing shots that we might have missed with a larger wedding.
Most importantly, throughout the whole process, Joanna and Christine helped us feel safe and accepted. My partner and I have a lot of anxiety around having our picture taken. Through our engagement photos and the wedding day itself, they were patient with us, related to our various quirks, and helped us feel more comfortable as we worked through our initial awkwardness with the posed shots. Their excitement about our sillier ideas helped us feel like we could be ourselves. When we met to go over the (massive trove of) photos afterward, we spent more time talking about raising kids, education, and other shared interests than about the photos! It's probably worth noting that the photos themselves came out better than we ever could have imagined.
We feel so lucky to have found Joanna, and we're already excited about working with her again to capture the next big moments in our lives. She has our highest recommendation.We started working with Joanna for a May '21 wedding about a year ahead.

Such a gem!
Joanna was an incredible addition to our wedding day! She made us both feel comfortable, and at ease! She fit right in as one of the guests- our family was raving about her and we had to agree! Our photos turned out beautifully. She really is a treasure to have and a natural at getting two awkward people to smile, relax, have fun, and feel great on their wedding day! Thanks Joanna!

A new friend and a photographer
Joanna was fabulous to work with! From the very beginning during our get to know you meeting, we hit it off right away and knew we needed her as our photographer. She is genuine, friendly, and a lovely person and her photography skills are just as wonderful! She did both our engagement and wedding photos and made us feel so at ease the whole time. It was stressful planning a wedding during Covid, but Joanna was incredibly supportive and flexible with dates and helped keep me sane. She is so personable and celebrates the wedding planning milestones with you, so you come out with a new friend and not just a photographer.
We are so in love with the photos we got! Joanna got amazing shots without making us feel posed. She could crack jokes to get us laughing and it was the most comfortable I’ve ever felt being photographed. Her editing turn around time and quality of prints are also amazing. We can’t wait to work with her again in the future!Joanna was fabulous to work with!

Joanna is the best choice you can make for your wedding!!!
I truly cannot recommend Joanna highly enough - she is the first vendor I booked back in 2018 for our 2020 wedding after seeing her site and knowing immediately that she would give us the best photos to commemorate our wedding. We had a wonderful first meeting where we drove up to Snoqualmie pass for some absolutely dreamy engagement photos in the fresh snow. We were immediately at ease with her, and it made our experience (the first time taking any type of professional photos together) so easy and something to look forward to at our wedding.
When 2020 threw curveballs, Joanna was always quick to respond and in complete support of our always changing plans - also helping to provide some much needed perspective and advice on how we should move forward. We kept our rescheduled day in 2020 for an elopement ceremony and moved our reception to 2021 - the first thing I wanted to make sure was that Joanna was available for both! On the day of our elopement it was soooo easy to work with Joanna in what should have been a jam packed two hours of photos and ceremony - instead it was easygoing, fun, and we enjoyed every minute of it. We got sneak peak photos back from her super quickly and the full gallery less than a week later, and we are in loveeeeeee with what she's given us! I seriously do not stop staring at them, and can't wait to plaster them anywhere I can. And it's worth noting - in only two hours Joanna was able to get us over 300 photos that are all amazing. I can't even imagine how much good content we will have from our 8 hours next year at the reception ;)

Wonderful!
Joanna took our engagement and wedding photos. From our first Skype meeting (we planned our wedding from out of state) she made us feel so comfortable. She was flexible with her time and so knowledgeable about vendors and locations. Our pictures turned out so beautiful! We have gotten so many compliments on them. We would recommend her to anyone!Joanna took our engagement and wedding photos. From our first Skype meeting (we planned our wedding from out of state) she made us feel so comfortable.

Simply amazing!
Joanna photographed our engagement and wedding and she was fantastic to work with. She took time to get to know us and feel comfortable while she captured the most amazing moments! We had an outdoor wedding which ran into the night and she and Kendal really took some great shots playing off all of the different lighting going on. We cannot recommend her enough, truly wonderful to have her share our wedding!
Thanks Joanna!
