I’ll be showing my work for the first time at an art walk and looking to do B&W metallic prints. Anyone know of a local shop doing great work in this space? Thank you!

Hi! Hoping to find some leads for a photographer that specializes/has an eye for fantasy-style photoshoots. My fiancé and I are eloping and having a mini honeymoon in June. We want to have a shoot in the Hoh that basically makes us look like the endgame couple in a fantasy novel. Thanks!!

Hi! My fiancé and I are planning our intimate garden party wedding on July 26th in Seattle. We are having the ceremony at a small city park we have rented and then walking 2 blocks to our backyard for the reception! We are looking for a photographer for between 4 and 6 hours of coverage and have a budget of around $2,000. Please reach out if you are interested in working with us or you have a recommendation.

I'm working with a family that's coming in from out of town, and wants to do a family portrait session. They want to keep it mainly within the main Seattle area(downtown up through the UW campus, possibly Fremont), however the husband wants some of the mountains in the background.
While this time of year doesn't reliably offer the mountains in the background (between the rain and overcast), I have 2 questions:

What are some good options just in case the weather does turn out to be optimal?
What are some good options as backup areas? Specifically nature based areas, so far I have:

• Arboretum, also Discovery Park, Magnuson Park, Seward Park
• Volunteer Park
• Gasworks Park
• Gold Creek Pond

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

A print I made as a gift for a friend. Chocolati in Greenwood, absolutely delicious if you have are a chocolate lover.

Hello everyone, I plan on visiting Seattle in December and I was wondering if anyone can lead me into the direction of photographers that do engagement photography or just portrait in general, but I will not be letting my significant other know so it’d be definitely a surprise thing for her And if anyone would know any nice scenery areas to do such engagement photos.

Looking for a FEMALE shoe for my OM2 by TONIGHT!! it’s kind of important that I can get my hands on one if possible. Anyone have any idea of where I can get one or if you happen to have a spare? Checked omega and shot on film, no dice. Any help is appreciated !!!

Picture I took at that lil beach on the waterfront during opening day 😊

Hi all! I'm a portrait photographer in the Chicagoland area. I shoot mostly proposals, engagement sessions, small weddings and events. I'm doing pretty well here with consistent work, but I would like a change of scenery, and I have been considering either Seattle or Denver as options. I'm nervous to relocate my business because I'm unsure how much demand there would be somewhere else. Does anyone have any input on this? If you're a photographer and you live in Seattle or Denver, have you been financially successful? Any downsides to living there? Thank you!

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for a professional film photographer in Seattle to help me with a photoshoot. Specifically, I’m looking for someone experienced in 35mm film photography who knows how to shoot and light effectively for a professional result.

I’ll be using a Nikon N90s with a 35-80mm f/4-5.6D lens and Kodak 400 film. All I need is someone who can photograph me with a solid understanding of film photography techniques.

If you have the expertise and are interested, please reach out!

For over 80 years, images taken by renowned Pacific Northwest photographer Asahel Curtis in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were collecting dust in boxes. Curtis photographed Mount Rainier, railroads and everyday people doing everyday things. 

Now, these negatives are finally coming to light as the Washington State Historical Society undertakes a massive project: Digitizing 60,000 of Curtis's photos and making them freely accessible to the public. 

In a new 30-minute Cascade PBS documentary, we explore the Pacific Northwest from the 1890s to the 1940s through Curtis’s eyes.

"Photography is just a window to the past," said Jennifer Kilmer, director of the Washington State Historical Society. "I think the further we get from these moments in the past, the harder it is to envision what it was like. And when you have original photos, you have the ability to step into that world and to focus on the tiniest things."

Let us know what you think. Have you heard of Asahel Curtis before? Will you browse through the photo archive once it’s publicly available?
