Skagit Wedding Tour 2017 at Beau Lodge in Bow, WA

This year we took part in the Skagit Wedding tour in late May at Beau Lodge in Bow, WA. Kate has photographed a wedding at this venue before and the entire GSquared Weddings team will be shooting on there this August.

The Beau Lodge is hands-down one of our favorite venues in the Pacific Northwest as it has the best of everything – a pond, trees, a beautiful lodge building, gardens, wooded paths, wildlife all around, and it’s like a little oasis from everything else. When we found out that the Skagit Wedding tour had an opening for a photographer at the Lodge, we felt like it was fate.

Rustic Events Rentals had several amazing pieces she showcased – custom tables and chairs, a bar station, one of her new lounges, yard games, and my favorite piece of all, her Mountain ceremony backdrop and tons TONS of awesome adventure themed signage (which is totally our thing, of course!)

Avenue Catering had some tasty yummies served up in the kitchen, which was a popular spot for visitors to hang out, and they supplied the yummy beverages served in the bar area.

Beau Lodge’s Stan had set up 3 display tables with different themes in the main reception area, and the most popular one was, of course, the greenery table with it’s live fern centerpiece.

Beauty was being served up in the kitchen from Dorie of SeneGence – Briley’s Bullet Proof Lips – even the gorgeous and sweet owner of the Lodge took a turn in the chair!

  • Yes, that sobbing lady in green is me. 

I didn't even have time to put makeup on ... Not that it would have mattered because I would have just cried it all off. 

My whole face did me wrong. Who cries like that?!? 

No matter what, just know you don't look like THIS when you're crying on the wedding day. 

Also, that's my awesome kid on their wedding day. Don't they look amazing???

SNOHOMISH WASHINGTON
OPEN TO TRAVEL WITHIN THE UNITED STATES

How long have you been a Snohomish Wedding Photographer?

Kate has been photographing since 1997 and Josh started in 2011. We started photographing weddings together then.

Josh and Kate of GSquared Weddings have photographed over 630 weddings together across more than 15 years — specifically in the Seattle and Snohomish County area. That’s not a flex for its own sake. It means that when your timeline runs 20 minutes late, when the clouds roll in over your outdoor ceremony, or when your reception venue is lit exclusively by Edison bulbs and bad overhead lighting, we’ve been there. Hundreds of times. And we know exactly what to do.

As a husband and wife team, we also bring something no two-photographer strangers can replicate — we communicate without words, we read a room together, and we move through your day as a unit. A Snohomish wedding photographer with genuine field experience doesn’t just take better photos — they protect your entire day experience. That’s what 630 weddings actually buys you.

How do I know GSquared Weddings is the right Snohomish wedding photography team for us?

Honestly? You’ll know pretty fast. If you read through our work and our words and thought these people get it — trust that instinct.

We’re built for couples who want their day to feel like themselves, not a performance. Couples who want a team that genuinely shows up — not just with cameras, but as timeline wranglers, veil fixers, chaos calm-ers, and two people who will absolutely tear up at your first look. We’ve spent 15 years and 630 weddings earning the trust of couples across Seattle and Snohomish County, and our approach has never changed: protect your vision, protect your experience, and keep your messy, beautiful, real love story safe.

If you’re looking for heavily staged, ultra-polished, everybody-stand-still photography — we’re probably not your people, and we’ll tell you that honestly. But if you want someone to be there for all of it, exactly as it happens? That’s exactly what we do.

What is your photography style, and will my Snohomish wedding photos look natural or overly edited?

At GSquared Weddings, our photography style is rooted in one core belief: real is always better than perfect. We shoot in a documentary-editorial style — meaning we’re capturing what’s actually happening, not directing a magazine spread. Candid tears, windblown hair, belly laughs mid-vow, the flower girl losing it in the corner — that’s what we’re after.

Our editing is clean, timeless, and true to life. We don’t chase trendy presets or heavy filters that will feel dated in five years. What you see in our galleries is what actually happened that day — the light, the color, the emotion — preserved honestly. Your Snohomish wedding photos will look like you, not like a template.
