capturing worldwide
I work with couples who are grounded in what matters - the ones who embrace the rain, laugh through the chaos, and know their wedding isn’t a production. It’s part of their story.
Anyone can take photos or video - very few can notice the story that’s already there and create something you can feel for years to come.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can fully show up - present, invested, and all in.
Your story deserves more than coverage, it deserves to be lived in. Here, your investing in how your memories are experienced over time

We got a wedding package with engagement photos. During our engagement session, she was so energetic and fun, it made me confident that she would absolutely rock our wedding. What I wasn’t prepared for, is that she had even more tricks up her sleeve to make the wedding day experience the best, EVER! She was professional, directed everyone beautifully and made it fun and easy. She has an eye for amazing shots and was so supportive and overall just amazing. Now for the IMAGES, holy cow they were absolutely stunning! Our video made my husband and I both cry happy tears. She absolutely exceeded our expectations and created beautiful images that we will cherish forever. I cannot recommend her enough. She is simply 5 stars in every department!
She went above and beyond capturing my wedding day and didn't leave any little details out. 10/10 would recommend her to anybody looking to have photos done. Exceptional work!
Kiarha was amazing!!! Our wedding ceremony was held outside. Right before the ceremony we ended up having thunderstorms, which delayed us over an hour. Kiarha was super positive throughout the day despite the unpredictable weather/schedule and we got amazing photos and video. She went above and beyond!! 10/10 would recommend having Kiarha be apart of your special day!
Kiarha was so patient and kind! She took our wedding/video photos and we couldn’t be happier. She gave us some amazing tips that helped us plan our special day. My husband mentioned that he has super comfortable with her and felt like she was a friend attending our wedding. I can’t wait to be able to work with her again! Thank you so much Kiarha Lou Photography <3
I first met her through a Boudoir session, which was absolutely phenomenal! She made me feel safe, comfortable and beautiful! The photos turned out better than I could have imagined, she knows how to pose you in the most flattering ways for your body, she also had a wardrobe of things to help make the shoot how I envisioned. Second interaction with her was my engagement photos. We are outdoor people and she accommodated that completely, she is just adventurous as us, wading through the water to get the perfect shot! I appreciate the commitment to art! The quality of the photos is outstanding. Vibrant colors, clear images, and perfect placement. Third interaction was our wedding. What a dream come true she is. There were so many stressors leading up to the wedding and she was a great help to know photos and some video were taken care of. She coordinated a second shooter for me, helped with some timeline questions, there was some last minute schedule changes and she was right there with me helping make sure things ran smooth. She really makes the day feel all about you, she is an observer of everything and steps in to take charge when needed (family photos). She gave me and my husband the space to be ourselves, and captured those moments. All my family members have raved at how great she was, and brave she was in the pouring rain. I have failed to post things on social media (my own issue) but the photos I have shared privately with friends and family, they have all been thoroughly impressed! A couple months after the wedding I reached out to Kiarha because my mom's dad died and my mother had been displaying a wedding photo that had him in it (sadly the only one) but my niece isn't looking at the camera. Kiarha did some investigating and editing and was able to send me a photo that had everyone looking at the camera. I gave it to my mother for Christmas and she cried, we are so very thankful for Kiarha going above and beyond! I recommend her for all your photoshoot needs, especially wedding related.
She did our engagement photos, wedding photos, and highlight video, and they all turned out amazing.
I was pretty nervous to do the engagement session, as I’m not accustomed to getting my photo taken, but Kiarha made it so easy and comfortable. Not only did the photos turn out great, but we had the best time taking them. She delivered all of the photos so quickly too!
At the wedding, Kiarha and her assistant went above and beyond providing help and encouragement throughout the whole day. I felt like I had a friend and ally throughout the entire process. They pinned dresses, brought water, impressively directed a huge group of family members into, oh and also captured each special moment on camera. The photos and video she delivered were natural and beautiful, and delivered right on time. A number of family and friends commented afterwards just how easy they were to work with. I would highly recommend Kiarha to capture your special day.

Kiarha was an absolute dream to work with. She did our engagement shoot and wedding and I was blown away with the quality of photos that came back. Our engagement shoot day was rainy and gloomy, but the photos were still beautiful and elegant.
My husband and I are not use to having professional photos taken, and Kiarha definitely helped us feel calm & relaxed which resulted in some wonderful photos. The photography package we purchased included a video clip, which was absolutely amazing. We had a small wedding and did not have the budget for both a photographer and videographer - Kiarha does it all, and does it all very well!
She exceeded our expectations in every department, I would highly recommend her.
Her team was communicative, endlessly helpful, and went above and beyond. We had LOTS of hiccups on the day-of, and they just rolled with the punches with professionalism and patience. They were so kind, funny, and made the experience that much less stressful. I am so grateful to have had them there for my wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.
My husband and I enjoyed working with Kiarha! She and her team member are super sweet, kind and helpful, and their work exceeds our expectations! They are great at capturing the most beautiful moments, and the wedding film they made was excellent! 10/10 would recommend Kiarha!
Not only was she just phenomenal and so attentive during our wedding, but we had SO many friends and family come and tell us how much they liked her. Her energy radiates, and I honestly couldn’t be happier (and we haven’t even seen our video yet! LOL. Which no doubt will be just as amazing as she is!). I really cannot recommend her enough! Finding her by chance was absolutely the best. Don’t hesitate, book her now, you won’t regret it. <3
Kiarha is absolutely amazing and we are so, so glad we chose her for our wedding! From any planning, vendor, posing, or general wedding questions she is so supportive, genuine, and positive! We never felt awkward or uneasy in front of the camera because she made it so FUN. Kiarha truly ensures the day is captured perfectly and she is so calm and organized throughout. Her ability to capture authentic, unique, and beautiful moments is incredible! Highly, highly recommend Kiarha ❤︎
We worked with Kiarha for videography for our wedding and had a such a positive experience! Not only did our video exceed our expectations, but Kiarha is a joy to work with and has such a welcoming personality. Would absolutely recommend!!
We chose Kiarha for our wedding photography and are SO happy with our decision. She is so amazing and genuine. We felt so comfortable at our engagement session, couples session, and our wedding with all the pictures. She delivered way beyond what is expected!! Our friends also love our photos and have booked with her as well because her work is so amazing. Highly recommend!!! She is so kind and easy to work with. She communicates so well.
First things first, fill out the inquiry form. Tell me all about yourselves, the more detail the better so I can get to know you two and your story.
Next, we'll connect on a video call. I love meeting "face to face" for our initial chat. In our call we'll get to know one another better, go over my investment guide and all the details/vison of your day. Ask any and all the questions you may have!
I’ll send over a tailored proposal, clear and transparent, with a full breakdown of what you’re investing in. I believe in trust, so nothing is buried or unclear too.
I believe the best photos are created within your story!
I take the time to understand who you and your partner are and your journey towards falling in love so that we can make images that represent YOU! Your good sides, the way you laugh when you see each other, and all the ways that make you perfect for one another.
My work blends laid-back luxury with heartfelt storytelling.
Think: timeless romance meets real, unscripted moments. I focus on the emotions that matter - how your day felt, not just how it looked.
Yes! Other than the retainer due at signing and the remainder due a week/ month before, we can set up a payment plan however you would like!
I totally get how hard it is to wait- I’m just as excited to get your gallery into your hands! I give myself 90-180 days for weddings and 4–5 weeks for portrait sessions. That said, if my schedule allows, you might get them even sooner- so definitely keep an eye on your inbox!
I never rush the editing process because your story deserves to be told with care, intention, and the best possible quality.
Yes I absolutely love to. Whether you're planning a destination wedding, elopement, or just want your session somewhere that means the world to you, I’m always ready to hit the road (or hop on a plane). I’ve photographed love in a few different countries already and am always up for the next adventure.
If you’ve got a location in mind, let’s dream it up together.
Travel costs depend on how far I’ll be coming to document your day. For anything within driving distance, I typically charge per mile. If a flight is needed, I’ll just ask you to cover the cost of airfare.
That said—travel is included in some of my collections, especially for destination weddings and elopements! Just fill out my contact form, and I’ll send over a customized quote based on your location and what you're dreaming up.
I’m endlessly inspired by the love I get to witness between people.
One of my favorite parts of photographing weddings is that it takes me to places I might never otherwise go - and lets me step into such a meaningful chapter of your life. From the quiet nerves to the happy tears, the laughter, the joy, and the moment you say yes to forever - being there to celebrate your story and preserve it is the greatest honor.
As a Pacific Northwest wedding photographer and videographer, I offer hybrid coverage—a seamless blend of timeless photography and cinematic film. With a trusted team of two, we capture your day through both still and moving images, preserving the full story in a way that feels effortless and elevated.
While I lead with photography, my second shooter focuses on video - documenting curated clips throughout the day. We craft a 4 - 6 minute highlight film, set to licensed music and, when possible, woven with meaningful audio like your vows or toasts.
Before your wedding, I take the time to get to know you and your priorities - so your film and photos reflect not just how everything looked, but how it felt. Whether it’s your dad’s laugh, the quiet moment you share before walking down the aisle, or the sound of your partner’s voice as you exchange vows - those are the things we hold onto.
This two-person approach allows us to capture everything naturally, without the need for a large production team or repeating moments. It’s storytelling at its richest - refined, personal, and completely you.
In 2019, I was photographing a wedding for a couple who chose not to hire a videographer. I felt pulled to give them something extra, so I quietly filmed a few moments between portraits and ceremony.
As the bride walked down the aisle, I turned to photograph the groom’s reaction—and just as he began to cry, I instinctively switched to video. I captured a single tear running down his cheek. That moment? It changed everything.
I fell in love with the emotion and movement of cinematography, and how it brings even more depth to storytelling. That’s the moment hybrid became part of not just my offerings—but a core part of how I serve my couples.
