About this vendor
Hello! I am a photographer with a photojournalistic perspective. My specialty lies in capturing intimate and candid moments, telling your story through the lens, preserving the authenticity of each moment and creating timeless memories that you'll cherish for a lifetime.
I have an eye for capturing the intricate details often overlooked—the tender glances, the shared laughter, and the heartfelt moments shared between loved ones. My goal is to craft a visual narrative that goes beyond traditional poses, portraying the genuine joy and love you and your guests share in an authentic manner.
My ultimate aim is for you to feel, at the end of your special day, not just that you hired a photographer, but that you gained a lifelong friend who also happens to take amazing pictures. And, I know most people are not super comfortable being in front of a camera (I certainly am not, haha), so I strive to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience where you can be yourselves without any added pressure, resulting in heartfelt and genuine photographs that truly reflect your unique story.

Piero was wonderful to communicate with during my wedding planning process. They were professional, responsive, and very kind in answering all of my questions. Their communication ...
was clear and timely, and they made the entire experience feel easy and stress-free.
I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer who is organized, professional, and great to work with.
Piero and his assistant photographed our Seattle summer wedding and we will cherish their work forever. We very specifically didn't want many posed photos and for the photography t...
o not feel "invasive" - Piero understood this perfectly, and was able to capture so many moments throughout the day, including of our family and guests, that we didn't even realize! The photos themselves are beautiful and capture the way the day felt perfectly. Couldn't recommend more!
I've just looked at my wedding photos, and I just can't rate Piero highly enough. The way he captures the heart of the moment -- the movement, the expressions, the dynamics betwee...
n people -- is extraordinary. I felt like I was re-living my wedding day as I looked through them.
As far as working with him, I also could not have asked for an easier, clearer, and more professional photographer. He talked with us well prior to the event to ensure we were on the same page, helped us think through some key logistics, and gave us a proper contract to set expectations up front, which he more than delivered on. In terms of his conduct at the wedding itself, he was extra-considerate, somehow inconspicuous despite somehow capturing all the key moments.
The short of it: do yourself a favor and book him for quite literally anything, but especially for photoshoots where you want to focus on the the spirit and humanity of the people being photographed.
Piero is an extraordinary artist and human who captures stunning photos. His storytelling in particular separates Piero from the rest of the wedding photographers. Check out his po...
rtfolio and see for yourself.- not only how beautiful each collection is, but how each collection is unique and special to the couple. From the first phone call, we felt at ease with Piero. On the big day, Piero and his lovely second photographer Nicki helped the day go smoothly. Upon receiving our photos and reliving our wedding, we laughed, we cried, and we are forever grateful that Piero captured our special day.
Looking for a wedding photographer wasn't easy. As a super introverted couple, we were concerned about having someone with a loud and overly enthusiastic personality, posing us all...
around and forcing us to laugh at all times like we've seen in a couple of friends' weddings. Piero's calm and respectful approach was exactly what we needed to feel comfortable during our special day. He struck the perfect balance between a few posed shots and capturing spontaneous, documentary-style moments. Looking through the pictures, we are so very touched by how he managed to capture the quiet and authentic moments of our day. For anyone looking for a photographer with not only great artistic skill but also a genuine understanding of individual preferences, we wholeheartedly recommend Piero.
Piero and his fiance went above and beyond my expectations! My small wedding wouldn't have been the same without their artistic eye, perfect timing and great communication. Piero k...
ept on time with everything, and was very helpful in posing my husband and I (as we are not the most photogenic people). I was made very comfortable, and was genuinely happy to have them there. I recommend Piero to anyone having any kind of special event! Thanks again for such amazing pictures!

11 out of 10 recommend Piero Manriq!!! We are absolutely thrilled with how Piero’s photography turned out. He captured such beautiful moments in the most artistic way. Our photos ...
are stunning!! He was such an essential part of our special day. He was also so easy to work with, lovely, patient, communicative, and professional!!
Piero is truly a one of a kind, photographer! We worked with him for our fall 2022 engagement photo shoot, and for our summer 2023 wedding. When we had our first call with him, we ...
felt comforted by him calm, confident, and kind energy. We are both introverts, and struggle being in front of the camera, but Piero has this remarkable way to capture genuinely candid and raw moments. Prior to each photo shoot he worked with us on identifying photography spots, ideal times for certain photos, and even gave us some tips on outfits. His attention to detail and execution can be seen at every step, and he delivered beyond our expectations!
We were so grateful to have worked with Piero, and would love to work with him in the future. Thanks again!!!
If I could give him more stars, I would. Don’t wait, book him now! I feel so lucky to have found Piero and his team for my big day. He was professional and quick to respond through...
out the whole process. Every time we spoke I felt at ease and in good hands. On the day of, he made everything seem so calm and simple. We can be pretty camera shy so he understood that candids would be crucial and he nailed it. From portraits to candids, our photos came out more beautiful than we even imagined. He captured us and all the amazing moments of the day. His calm demeanor was a much needed presence at our wedding and the photos are beyond perfect. Our friends and family were blown away with the photos and I’ve already had so many people ask who the photographer was because they’re so perfect. You can’t go wrong with this crew. Highly recommend!!
Piero and his assistant Nicki did an amazing job of capturing our wedding. He was very easy to work with and does amazing work capturing the little moments. Some of my favorite pho...
tos are the candids of us and our guests. I highly recommend him to anyone needing wedding photography within a decent budget. Photo turn around was quick, within 3 weeks from the wedding, and he over-delivered in the best way possible with extra images in an online album thats easy to download. We are so happy with his work and our family has been just as excited :)
Piero was very relaxed and knew exactly what he was doing. His presence was appreciated and he added to the special day in many ways! Recommended highly!!
Working with Piero for our wedding was a dream! We are a couple who wanted candid and artistic style photos and Piero nailed that. Working with him for our engagement shoot was com...
fortable and fun. On our wedding day him and his team was so thoughtful, kind and captured the day exactly as we wanted it. Our photos are absolutely STUNNING and AMAZING! We have already recommended him to other friends and would encourage everyone to book him and his team up!
Piero did an incredible job! Gorgeous photos and extremely professional demeanor. This guy knows what he's doing. We picked Piero because his photos were a few notches above the re...
st. His approach to capturing the event fully while putting our preferences first speaks to his skill as a wedding photographer. Piero uses natural light to great effect and discretely captures intimate moments. We'll cherish these photos of one of our biggest days for the rest of our lives. Thanks Piero!
Piero (and his second photographer Kris) were utterly wonderful and kind to work with. Piero was prompt in communications before the wedding and very clear on what information he w...
anted from us. Day of? He was a calm presence (next to my chaotic nervousness!) who gave very clear directions of how to stand, position ourselves, and move. We were able to leave capturing our venue details to him without him needing more direction from me. I also was suffering from ‘Ew, maybe the brown trees of this winter wedding’ aren’t as nice as they looked before…but Piero saved the day here too! He took a moment to describe as an artist the natural beauty of our photo locations…and helped transform them in my eyes again. And all of the photos he sent us turned out stunning!! Would 100% recommend choosing him as your photographer!!
It was an absolute joy to work with Piero on my wedding day. My husband and I were doing a courthouse ceremony in Seattle and it was extremely important for us to have photos that ...
captured the day well for our friends and family who were unable to join us due to Covid restrictions. We looked at a lot of photographers, and after looking through Piero's Instagram and website we knew that he was the best option for us. His photos looked so beautiful and artistic and just looked like so much more than typical wedding photos. He was super quick to respond and right off the bat gave us great recommendations about where we could take pictures around Seattle.
On the day of the ceremony, Piero was prompt and responsive and our families immediately loved him! He was so kind and supportive and made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My husband and I had never been a part of a professional photography experience and we honestly didn't know what to do with our faces or hands. We didn't even have to ask Piero - he right away gave us clear and simple instructions. After the time at the courthouse, he walked us around downtown Seattle and it was clear he had put a lot of thought into where we should take pictures. I had even seen a picture in front of a brick wall backdrop on other brides' photos and thought it was so beautiful - I didn't even mention this to Piero, but he magically brought us there! I didn't even realize until I got the final photos from him, and I was so excited.
When we looked at the final photos, they were incredible. My husband and I were shocked - like, who are these good looking people!? They were us, and it was thanks to Piero's skill and supportive direction. We are so grateful to have found him and couldn't recommend him enough. Piero is phenomenal, and his photos perfectly capture one of the happiest days of our lives.
Piero was such a pleasure to work with during the process of planning our wedding. For our engagement photos, we really didn't have any idea where to go and Piero picked a great ar...
ea that gave us photos we fell in love with. I knew then I couldn't wait for the wedding and to see this photos. Let me tell you, he did not disappoint. Out wedding photos are phenomenal and caught great formal photos of us as well as wonderful little moments we will cherish memories of for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend Piero and look forward to using him for other milestones in our lives, as well.
Throughout the entire process Piero was very positive and professional. He listened to all of my requests and was very accommodating to last minute changes. Piero is very friendly ...
and personable, but more importantly, incredibly talented. Every single picture he delivered has the power to bring my back to that exact moment in the wedding, but through the eyes of an artist. The laughter, the crying, everything is captured so beautifully... I especially love the black and white photos. These pictures will be what we look back later in life and Piero was the perfect choice to capture these moments.
