About

COUPLE'S CHOICE PHOTOGRAPHERS

Hi there! We're Michelle & Evan: a husband and wife wedding photography duo - and we love weddings! Our award-winning work has taken us throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond — and both of us share a passion for travel and people. We've photographed all kinds of weddings across the country - from an elegant 300-person wedding, a charming Midwest barn wedding, to intimate courthouse weddings.

We offer a diverse range of photographic styles, including variations of modern, natural, and photojournalistic aesthetics.

The couples that book us love our authentic photography style. Just like us, our couples are the ones who want their wedding day captured in a way that feels true to who they are, raw, and heartfelt.

Many of our clients describe us as very friendly, genuine, and a blast to hang out with (psst: aside from our photography hat, we are great to have on the dance floor when you need a little boost to get people dancing!)

Want to know more about our packages? Reach out via WeddingWire or our website and let's schedule a time to get to know each other over coffee, or even through a quick phone/video call to see if we're a good fit!

100% recommend Michelle and Evan!!

My husband and I had SUCH a great experience working with Michelle and Evan for our wedding on 12/29/23!! The photos from our day turned out perfectly - I can't stop looking at them! Michelle and Evan made the planning process very smooth and personal, and they were always incredibly responsive and helpful. They wanted to know everything about our vision: our theme and decorating plans, the style of photos we were most drawn to, what specific photos we really wanted, the timeline... all so they could capture everything that was important to us. I love how many special moments they caught from the day - of us, and also of all our guests and all the details. Of course during any wedding, you spend a lot of time with the photographers - and Michelle and Evan made everything so much fun!! They had so many creative ideas that made for such great pictures. There were so many ways in which they made the day all that we hoped for - they captured an entire 13 hours of events, took SO MANY amazing and authentic photographs, and even followed us across multiple locations throughout the day as we got ready, had the ceremony, took pictures in a downtown location, and then went to our reception! The package my husband and I purchased included an engagement shoot - and by the time we hired Michelle and Evan we had already been engaged for three years. We asked if we could substitute it for a photoshoot in the mountains a few days after the wedding, and Michelle and Evan made it happen!! Cannot say enough good things, and we highly recommend Michelle and Evan!!

Best photographers ever!

We could not have imagined having anyone other than Michelle and Evan photograph our wedding! All of the wedding party and guests enjoyed working with them, they were incredibly responsive and organized. Most of all they are FUN! They perfectly captured the non-traditional quirky nature of our wedding. From spontaneous pics, posed pics and photos with dogs and children they were all gorgeous. Even their photo delivery was super polished. The night of the wedding we got our first look photos within 3 hours of them leaving the venue (!!!) They were even edited! We were so impressed! We got our own custom portal and could also easily share the gallery link with our guests. One guest actually thanked us for how easy it was to view photos! Book with Michelle and Evan!!

Best Experience Ever!

When we were researching photographers, we knew we wanted a photographer that would capture timeless photos that showed the emotion of the day. When we discovered Michelle and Evan, we knew it would be a good fit. They were upfront and open about everything from costs, to what cameras they use, and timeline for getting pictures. We had an engagement photo shoot which allowed us to see how Michelle takes pictures and different ways to pose. It was the first time me or my husband had ever felt comfortable being photographed and posed and all the pictures looked so natural! The wedding day was a breeze and Michelle and Evan were very helpful with everything-Not just the photography portion! It felt like we had two more people in our corner in case anything went wrong the day of. Additionally, we received 15 photos-fully edited- within 24 hours of our wedding. It was so nice to see some pictures so soon!

Team

Michelle Schmidt
Michelle Schmidt
Founder & Lead Photographer

My name is Michelle and I grew up in a little white house on the other side of the world.

No, really.

I grew up in the tropics of Indonesia before moving to snowy Colorado. I met my husband on the first week of college in Texas (at the cafeteria!) and we've finally settled in beautiful Seattle.

When I was 6, my parents said my favorite things to carry were a spatula and a disposable camera. Fast forward many years later, I'm now an avid baker and an experienced professional wedding photographer.

I've worked with couples all over the United States, as well as internationally. Specifically, I love photographing weddings with my husband - we both just LOVE connecting with and supporting other couples. In fact, we've become friends with many of our clients and have stayed connected years past the wedding - it is our favorite thing ever!

When I'm not taking pictures, you can find me travelling, baking, and reading.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll often find me with my amazing partner in crime, Michelle. Together, we love exploring the great outdoors: hiking through new PNW trails and trying new foods are two of our ultimate favorite things to do.
