Seattle and Washington Wedding Photography


Editorial + documentary wedding, engagement, and proposal photography for Seattle and the Pacific Northwest.


My photography celebrates love in every form—every orientation, gender, culture, and identity is wholeheartedly welcomed.

 

Hey, I’m Andre Stepanov. I photograph moments for couples who want their gallery to feel real, candid, and look timeless.


I’m based in Seattle and photograph across Washington and the PNW, plus destination weddings when the plan includes a passport and a good view.

What I Photograph

Weddings (PNW + Beyond)

Clean compositions, candid moments, and portraits that don’t feel stiff.


Engagements

A session that feels like hanging out, with direction when you want it.

Courthouse Weddings  

For small days that still deserve the full story.


Proposals

Discreet planning, genuine reactions, and a quick portrait set after. 

Weddings start at $3,800 (6 hours). Custom coverage available for courthouse weddings, proposals, and multi-day events


As Seen In


My Philosophy


My philosophy centers on authenticity, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the unique stories and identity of each couple.


I believe photos are invaluable because they are history. When I photograph your occasion, whether it be an elopement, wedding, or engagement, I am capturing your history: the fusion of your and your partner’s identity at that specific point in time, continuing into the future.


A photographer should not take away from that experience, but function as an instrument to record just how special it is. Knowing when to guide to get some creative editorial photos, and knowing when to step back and let your moments speak for themselves. I believe that it is my job to capture your history while simultaneously creating art that you are a part of. Something you can look back on with friends and family and say, “Yeah, that’s us.”


Your gallery should be a reflection of your day flowing start to finish, with memories that you cherish. Memories you and your partner can sit and scroll through on a Sunday morning. Memories you can hang up on your wall so you can smile every time you get home. Memories that can create an album, telling your version of the day, conveniently placed on a coffee table or in your favorite reading nook.


Your wedding photos are heirlooms for generations, and your story deserves to be preserved and shared. I am honored to be a part of that.

Cannot recommend Andre enough!!!!! We hired him for our destination wedding in Aruba and he got along SO well with our group of friends, I am sure they will be hiring him for their upcoming events. My family also kept asking me where I found him because he made everyone feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I also want to highlight that the meetings to prepare beforehand were so easy and he truly listened to everything I want photographed and made me feel heard.

Andre did my engagement photoshoot, and I couldn’t have asked for someone better. From inquiry to receiving our photos, he was professional, kind, and incredibly talented. I inquired last minute, and he was very responsive. He was flexible with scheduling and adjusted for weather... My fiancé and I were shy at first, but Andre made us comfortable (even in the freezing cold, rain, and hail!). He was also very accommodating with our dog, which was important to us. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, friendly, and professional wedding photographer.

I happened to come across Andre’s portfolio online and was very impressed. During our consultation it felt like we connected with Andre so easily and were able to convey our wedding theme. He took our simple wants and turned them into a work of art. Andre truly captured our personalities and the classic elegance of our wedding. The moment I received the images I cried. Never had I expected the beauty he captured for us on our day. Thank you Andre for capturing every moment the way you did.

I am so glad that I stumbled across Andre. I can’t say enough about how professional he is and the quality of work that he provides. He made every effort in making us comfortable and to mention one thing I liked the most that he had great ideas for the poses.


I was so pleased with my session and final photographs.

My fiancé and I had the best experience working with Andre. He is very communicative and creative. We had an initial meeting describing the photoshoot/style/ideas and then during the shoot he led us and helped us with posing and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Andre is very attentive to details, if you want someone who can not only deliver photos in a timely manner but someone who is passionate about what they do- please book with weddingsbyAndre!

We enjoyed getting photographed by Andre. He is a talented artist with his unique style. We loved his work and professionalism.


We had to reschedule our photoshoot couple of times, he was flexible. We also had to change the location last minute due to weather conditions, Andre recommended the location and it worked out well. We had a great time. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to enjoy the experience.

My husband and I hired Andre for our courthouse wedding. He was highly communicative with us throughout the whole process.


On our wedding day, he was very patient with our family. He helped us by telling us how to pose. Since it was our first time getting pictures taken, he made us feel comfortable.


We are delighted with our pictures. Every time we look at them, we comment on how good of a job he did.

Andre was amazing to have as a photographer for our wedding! He really was able to encompass our love, excitement, and joy of our day! There were so many favorites from every one of my friends and family! My husband and I were both very comfortable with Andre and I feel like it allowed for some wonderful candids of the day! We would definitely work with him again!
