Private Queen Anne Rooftop Wedding in Seattle

Drag me!

To me the most memorable weddings are those where the couple chooses to buck all the suggestions from the wedding blogs and magazines, discards the traditional things that aren’t as meaningful to them, and embraces the true meaning of the wedding day. From the moment I met with Laura & Angel I knew that I would love every minute of working with them. I haven’t laughed harder at an initial client consultation in a long time and finding common ground was so easy with these two. They have a love of delicious food, enjoy living in my old Seattle neighborhood, and wanted to focus on having their immediate family and close friends at their wedding as opposed to throwing a large, extravagant affair. Laura & Angel have a breathtaking view of Elliott Bay from lower Queen Anne in downtown Seattle, which made their large rooftop deck perfect for hosting the wedding ceremony. They chose Bowman Design to partner with in bringing their vision of a simple but colorful wedding day together. Lisa knocked it out of the park. The bouquet was incredible! We then enjoyed a six course meal at L’oursin in Capital Hill in Seattle as the couple preferred to enjoy a long, fun dinner with their friends and family close by, socializing into the early morning hours. I would happily photograph Laura & Angel’s wedding over and over and over again and will remember their wedding day fondly forever.

Amazing work coordinating and designing this wedding by Bowman Design.

Hi, I’m alex! A seattle wedding photographer who’s been documenting your stories since 2009.

I fell in love with photography almost 20 years ago in a darkroom class, and that love has never faded. What started as a darkroom class in college turned into photographing my first wedding solo in 2010,and I was hooked. The joy. The emotion. The vows. The details. The people.

I realized quickly that my fulfillment came from helping people see themselves in a beautiful, honest way. I move calmly. I guide confidently. I know how to capture all the angles and candid moments without you even noticing. My couples often say I have “photo superpowers” because of how much I capture while still keeping everything feeling easy and low-pressure.


Some photographers find wedding days chaotic.

I find them electric.
