The surest decision besides marrying my husband!

We were eloping in Washington state with no idea where to start. Forthright photo responded to us immediately, set up a Zoom call, and made us feel so excited for our day! They are so genuine, kind, and very knowledgeable about where to go to get the best photos. Laura recommended specific trails to write down on our special permit for the national park and was so excited to do a sunrise wedding with us! You aren't just getting gorgeous pictures with Laura and Devon, you are getting advice on exactly what to do to make the day the most joyful!
Thank you for these beautiful memories we will have forever now. I feel like I'm reliving the day over and over again, I tear up every time I look at the photos.

Best photographers ever!

Laura and Devon are amazing! They were so nice to work with for our last minute elopement and they captured the day exactly how we wanted. You can tell they really care about making sure they are able to give you the best experience possible and making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. They even meet us the day of with some yummy muffins and had hairpins on hand when my hair came out! Definitely reach out if you're considering them, you won't regret it!

Better than real life photos!

Laura and Devon are absolutely amazing! They know all of the most epic (and lesser known!) spots throughout the PNW and can guide you to the locations that exactly fit your vision for your special adventure. I love that Laura has a passion for preserving the beauty of the PNW and you can trust that she will guide you to the best views and trails WITHOUT leaving a trace or hurting the precious flora that makes it a site worth visiting. Laura and Devon are great at making you feel comfortable throughout the entire experience, from the hiking, to being in front of the camera, and trusting them to deliver absolutely the most epic photographs in such a timely matter. This is honestly the first time I've ever felt like the photos were even better than what I remember seeing in person. 100% recommend!!

Laura and Devon are amazing photographers. I have had the pleasure of working with them on weddings where I have provided the floral arrangements and I have had Laura do family photos for myself, my husband and my infant daughter. She uses unique locations, isn't afraid to try something different and is responsive, reliable and got our photos back to us in time for Christmas cards! When she and Devon shoot together, you get some awesome angles and different perspectives for your special day. I can't wait to work with LaYoung Photography on another wedding soon!
