I've been a professional, full-time photographer for over a decade, had 6+ years as a fashion photographer prior to 6+ years in weddings, and I have photographed thousands of clients over that period of time. My work has been featured in places like Harper's Bazaar, Conde Nast Traveler, Esquire, Brides, Martha Stewart Weddings, Style Me Pretty, The Knot, Coach, Restoration Hardware, Vogue, and many other places around the world.
Don't worry about looking stiff in photos or knowing what to do.

It's more than simply curating, creating, and capturing your memories. It's about you simply enjoying those moments, and me blending in with your guests so those photographs are truly felt, not just seen. I take a photojournalistic approach, while perfectly and seamlessly blending that approach with those posed portraits. But I promise you, they're anything but "stiff" or awkward. They're true to you, in the moment, and curated with intention.

The experience is so important as well for personal reasons as well. After all, your wedding photographer is the one person who will by your side more than any other person on your wedding day (other than your husband/wife, of course)! So, hiring a photographer who has not only the style of photography you are wanting to cherish forever, but also a fun, outgoing attitude is so important - and that's exactly what you get with me. And not to worry - I will coach you through your portrait session, I will help you keep on track with your schedule on your wedding day, and will I be cracking jokes with you all day long. Simply, we will have so much FUN together with everything along the way. And that's the way it should be.
As your photographer, it's also about the results you receive at the end of the day. The photographs should tell your wedding story. And when you receive your online gallery, I want you to feel like you are reliving your wedding day through your photographs. In those photographs, you will see all the beautiful details, the energy, and the pure joy from your wedding day over and over again. And since photographs are forever, every time you look at your photographs on the walls in your house, in your albums, and everywhere else that they might be, you will remember those most special moments in your life time and time again.
I'll be there to photograph details throughout your wedding day, capturing the raw emotions, and documenting the events as they naturally unfold. And everything will be amazing, incredible, gorgeous, and fun. That's my promise to you.
Because You
he experience you have on your wedding day means everything.

I want you to be smiling, laughing, and feeling at ease throughout the entire process. I want you to trust in me 100%, and I want us to be friends. I'll be celebrating with you every step of the way.

I 100% understand that no two weddings are alike, because no two couples are alike. Every #LumaCouple I photograph is an amazing fit with me from Day One. That said, I truly want to mesh well with you and your fiancé because it's more fun (yay!), but because it really resonates through your photographs. I want the experience to be just as unforgettable as your photos. After all, you're going to be looking at them for your entire life and generations beyond.
Email me (Kyle) and let's chat about your wedding!
First, let's chat via email to see if we're a great fit.
As soon as you are able, I highly recommend booking with me ASAP after you are engaged. Some couples even book me for their date before they choose their venue! I don't mean this to be any pressure, but I book very early on (normally 8-12+ months in advance for peak dates, and 6+ months for non-peak dates).
In short, book as soon as you can to reserve your date with me! There's only one of me, and dates fill up fast.
After we chat some details, get your wedding date on my calendar ASAP!
I offer two different levels of engagement session: An adventurous session or my personal favorite -- the EPIC session. If you are wanting engagement photographs that aren't cliche and stand out with some jaw-dropping scenery, the adventurous or epic session is for you.
Every engagement session is a great way to practice poses (don't worry, I'll coach you through it) and get even more amazing photographs for your save-the-dates, invitations, and prints to hang on your wall!
Now, let's plan your gorgeous engagement session. I'll guide you through everything.

"hands down - the best thing we did for our wedding. Because of Kyle, we are able to relive the most special day of our lives."

Kyle is worth his weight in gold! In the day and age of countless apps and filters it’s hard to find a wedding photographer in Seattle who is truly talented and professional. I can’t tell you how many hours I spent sifting through different profiles and pictures trying to find someone who’s work caught my eye, until I came across Kyle. His work is timeless and beautiful and you can tell that this is his passion. This guy really knows what he’s doing with his 10+ years of experience. From our very first email until the last moments of our wedding he was nothing but kind and helpful. He answered every question every step of the way and was the calm in the chaos on the big day. Our pictures are absolutely STUNNING! He made it look like our wedding belongs in a magazine. His photography is amazing, but he was also able to capture the quiet little moments I may have otherwise forgotten about.
"Kyle does a wonderful job of making the camera disappear - you just live in the moment."

The day was absolutely incredible, When we returned from our adventure with Kyle, we were not the same people as when we had left. Kyle does a wonderful job of making the camera disappear - you just live in the moment.
We are proud to call Kyle our photographer. For anyone looking to make a lasting moment of your special day, book Luma Weddings for your photography.

"Kyle did a great job in keeping our energy up and was able to capture our personalities."
Very professional and prompt through the entire communication process. This was especially important since we planned a destination wedding in Tulum, Mexico at the Dreams Tulum Resort & Spa. They were our best professional vendor. Hire them immediately for your photography.
We felt so comfortable in front of the camera - Kyle did a great job in keeping our energy up and was able to capture our personalities and some truly romantic moments! When looking for the best photographers - look no further.

"If you're looking to book a destination wedding photographer, look no further."
Kyle did such an amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos. We had a destination wedding in Cancun, Mexico at Moon Palace Nizuc, and Kyle knew exactly what to do with the harsh sunlight, hot weather, and extreme humidity, not to mention how to avoid all the tourists in the backgrounds.
If you're looking to book a destination wedding photographer, look no further, Kyle is your person, he's super easy to work with and he can give you lots of great suggestions! Professional wedding photography - check!

"It's hard to pick just one photo when every single one is so gorgeous. Hire him as your Seattle Wedding Photographer Immediately."
Kyle did an exceptional job photographing our engagement. We did the Epic package and it truly lived up to its name. He photographed us in an intimate and genuine way. His down to earth nature & warm personality made for a fun and comfortable day at many locations. Kyle's Seattle wedding photography perfectly encompassed our love and the awe-inspiring vista of the lake. Kyle personalized the experience for us, and made it a truly memorable experience. After the shoot, Kyle delivered authentic, perfectly color corrected images that were a true representation of our engagement. This was truly a magical and worthwhile investment that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend Kyle for being so prompt, professional, and just an awesome person. You will not be disappointed.

"Their personable yet professional approach helped us feel comfortable & confident throughout the process."
We have nothing but great things to say about Luma Weddings. Besides the fact that our photos turned out AMAZING (and now grace nearly every wall in our house) our experience working with Kyle and Haley was fantastic.
The day of our wedding Kyle and Haley were a blast to have around. They made the entire wedding party feel so comfortable and they knew how to handle the rain like a pro. Haley even helped sew my dress when it broke during the reception - she was awesome! We have had multiple friends and future brides book through Luma Weddings after hearing about our experience and seeing how our photos turned out. They are on the rise though so I'd suggest booking ASAP!

"He really was a perfect combination.... Kyle was well researched, fast, efficient, and a direct but kind creative director."
Every guest commented after our wedding - “How did you come across such an amazing photographer? He really was a perfect combination.” Kyle was well researched, fast, efficient, and a direct but kind creative director. We really lucked out that he and his wife Haley were available to photograph and day-of direct our wedding. I couldn’t be happier with his leadership in keeping us on time, organized, and I’m extra grateful for his brilliant artistic insight. Both Kyle and Haley were professional and gracious. My guests all want to be friends with them now, as well. Our stunning pics arrived much faster than expected. I couldn’t be more thankful that Luma Weddings travelled all way to the mountains of Idaho to make our special day a perfect day. 10/10!

"So friendly and professional at the same time. He is an excellent wedding photographer."
We're so happy we chose Luma Weddings to photograph the most important day of our lives together. Kyle and Haley make a great team together and they instantly felt like new friends. So friendly and professional at the same time. He is an excellent wedding photographer in Seattle, he captured every perfect moment at the right moment so that we can relive that day through his wonderful pictures. Turn around time was fast! Half the time that we were expecting!! We absolutely loved that he gave us several shots, even when they were the same pose, that we could pick out OUR favorites. We're grateful and impressed with the quality AND quantity! He provided 100% value along with his beautiful side-kick, they are a must have for your wedding. Thank you so much Kyle and Haley!!

Kyle shot our wedding in Cancun Mexico last weekend. He did an amazing job at making sure we were comfortable and adjusting to our late schedule. Beyond the professional wedding photography, Kyle & Haley joined in on our celebration and we all just clicked!
Outside of our AMAZING wedding photos, they were just so great to be with! We would highly recommend Kyle & Haley Goldie at Luma Weddings for any special events! SO MUCH FUN!

I just received my wedding pictures and am SO EXCITED and extremely happy with the final product. They arrived much sooner than we expected. With so much wedding planning and anxiety, I can say that booking Kyle to be our photographer was one of our best decisions. My bridal party loved them, too!
I got the pictures I've always dreamed of. Thank you, Kyle and Haley!!! You guys are the best Seattle wedding photographers.

Kyle was absolutely amazing! He was kind and flexible throughout the day and was focused on the vision that we had for our photos.
During the time leading up to the wedding Kyle was so helpful, easy to work with and he always responded to my emails quickly. We couldn't be happier with our photos and the storytelling behind his style! When looking for Seattle wedding photography, book him. No wonder they've won so many awards!
