Best of 2017 Getting Ready

Premier Snohomish & Seattle Wedding Photographer | GSquared Weddings Photography A collage of black-and-white photos captures a Snohomish bride getting ready: having her dress adjusted, reading a letter, touching her veil by a window, sharing moments with loved ones, and an older woman watching—moments before her Seattle wedding. 47.9129° N, 122.0982° W | Serving Snohomish, Seattle , Orlando & Beyond

It’s time for the 6th installment of our 2017 Best of Weddings – and this time it’s the Getting Ready!

The getting ready time can really set the tone for the day. We encourage couples to set aside enough time that they won’t feel rushed and that they can enjoy time with their family and friends and even get a chance to eat before all the big events of their wedding day.

We love the realness of getting ready – the inside jokes shared between friends, the stories from years past, and especially the quiet moments of reflection on what is about to happen. In the Getting Ready collection you’ll see hairstyling, makeup, putting on the gown, adorning jewelry, reading notes and readying for the wedding day.

What is your favorite part of the wedding day getting ready? Tell us in the comments!

Meet your photographers.

We’re Kate (she/her) and Josh (he/him). Married humans, emotional chaos wranglers, coffee worshippers, timeline nerds, Marvel fanatics, and occasional ugly criers at weddings. (Okay, maybe more than occasional. Look, vows get us. Every damn time.) Kate has been photographing since 1997 and Josh picked up the camera in 2011. We’ve done over 600 weddings together, including wedding coordination (sometimes we even get to do both at the same time!) 600+ weddings → “That’s 600 families who trusted us to be invisible magic and backup problem-solvers.” 14 years → “We’ve seen it all — and we know how to handle anything without making it your problem.” Coordination → Kate is also a certified coordinator which gives that extra boost for you during planning and on the day itself “We don’t just photograph your day — we keep it flowing, calm, and meaningful.”
