April Williams Photography

r praises, combined with the beautiful artistry of how she played with light in her photography, we knew we had to meet her. April’s bright smile and warmth radiated from moment one and never left. We met with her again later that month to discuss what our vision was for our wedding, packages and budget. She gave us the privacy and space to discuss between ourselves and we were still so wowed over, by not only her talent but April as a person, that we rearranged our budget just so she was our photographer. Our (original) wedding date was spring of 2020. Two weeks before our event we had to make the decision on whether or not to move forward despite this new thing called “COVID”. April was one of the first people I called. She talked to me for (easily) 15-20 minutes, reminding me that the only thing that mattered was my honey & I and that she’d be there regardless! After chatting with our other vendors and weighing the want to get married with being safe - we pushed our wedding date to early Autumn 2020 (because there’s no way COVID would still be “a thing”). The week we (re)scheduled for was the week of the large wild fires in Oregon. Once again, we were facing the question of do we move forward; and once again April was there by our side saying she’d support us no matter our decision - at our venue, a back yard wedding or a pajama part in our livingroom with our fur-babies. We kept to our date but changed venue with a 24-hour notice to our vendors. Didn’t phase April at all. She was there bright and early to scout the new location for the perfect backdrops. She captured both the tender and silly sides of family, didn’t hesitate to accommodate weird photos requests from me (a Gone with the Wind corset photo and wearing cat ears at our First Look), and managed to turn thr smoke filled air into a magical fairy world of mist and beauty. April wasn’t just our photographer - she was a therapist, a friend, and our wedding guardian. Booking April Williams was the best decision we made, next to saying Yes to one another. She’ll forever be in my contacts and be our go-to photographer.

te as much as she can with your photo desires.

os fun and just made it flow with all the craziness a wedding can bring. There was a bit of drama with our band on our night and through some unfortunate events, we had to go to small claims court and April showed up with us to support us and even spoke in our behalf. I hope we never have to get married again in our lives, but any and all photography we will need in the future, April will be the first we call! Thank you so much! and the photos turned out exactly how we pictured them in our minds, PERFECT

apher!

ding party for her and her assistant. They ensured everyone felt comfortable and confident in pictures and got every angel imaginable. They truly helped make our day magical.

session. I was a nervous wreck. I hate photos of ME. April made sure to make it fun, genuine and a whole lotta love. The vibe she gives off is infectious. I knew before leaving we were booking her for our wedding. It didn’t matter the cost. It was happening. And then it did and oh my stars I do not regret anything about it. She was far more than a photographer. She was an ear to listen. A calm in the midst of a break down. A genuine person who cared about YOU. Her side kick Brandon also phenomenal with my hubby and the guys. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I am over the moon with our whole experience and April Williams Photography.

And remember their names through the event! She of course also takes beautiful photographs. For my own wedding, I knew I wanted April. She was the organized, keeper of the timeline that I needed the day of the wedding. And she’s just so easy to work with & comfortable to spend time with. My friend’s wedding happened to take place while it was raining, and my wedding was on a a clear frigid October day with a high of 34°…April just rolled with it like a total trooper! We had an amazing experience with April, and have absolutely incredible photos from our day. I would recommend April a hundred times over.

ncredibly talented, hilarious, and makes you feel comfortable instantly. She was SO FLEXIBLE AND HELPFUL during our wedding that happened to be towards the beginning of the chaos of covid. I honestly cannot recommend her enough. We’ve worked with her for our engagement shoot, boudoir shoot, wedding day, and when our baby was born-for newborn pictures! April has been apart of our biggest milestones as a family and the pictures will last a lifetime. Highly recommend!

we'd own. April has a whole bag of tricks for any lighting situation - meaning she has the right lens and also the right ideas for composition in any given scenario. She was very flexible, adaptable, fun, funny, full of energy, and just a joy to speak with every time we interacted. When it came to the day of the event, she shifted into the next gear and got it done, and was on top of communication and timing. She even helped me figure out some songs to play to get people on the dance floor toward the end of the night! April was a wonderful professional to work with through every step and I can't wait to get our prints!

rs. She was very professional and committed to capturing all the memories for our day. I couldn’t imagine that day with any other photographer.

r meet. We live closer to Seattle, Washington and even though April is based in the Vancouver area, she still went above and beyond to accommodate our needs! She made the process so easy and smooth. Thanks to April, we have beautiful memories to look back on!

ies engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn, 6 month, one year, Christmas, and another newborn. Her style is consistent without being redundant. You will not regret working with April. You should consider yourself lucky to have made it onto her schedule. Don't wait! Book with her.

agious excitement and energy. Our photos turned out better than I ever could have imagined! We are no doubt going to book her for our larger celebration and would recommend her in a heartbeat.

asy to work with. It rained the day of our wedding and our timeline completely changed and April adapted quickly! We still got all the wonderful photos that we will have to cherish forever. We walked around Laurelhurstclub Park for our pictures and April would take a moment, picture something in her mind and then tell us what to do and were to stand. From climbing inside a branch to lakeside strolls, we cannot get over our beautiful pictures. I have recommended her to everyone I know who needs pictures!! Thank you so much, April!

huge families for family portraits all while making everyone laugh. She takes the time to get to know you and your preferences, so she is able to convey your relationship and your style. She's very flexible and excited when you request special photos. We had a second-day waterfall shoot in our wedding attire and the photos are absolutely stunning. Actually all the photos from the whole weekend are stunning!

eting and when taking photos. We were blown away with the pictures she was able to capture for our engagement and knew she would do an amazing job for our wedding. The quality of the photos and final products are great. We highly recommend April and her work.

ordable and will make your wedding day (at least the photography aspect of it) smooth and
