About this vendor
My focus and experience is with high budget weddings and I take a lot of pride in that. I'm used to working with venues in the luxury market in Seattle. I focus on communicating well, preparing for the day, executing efficiently and professionally, and delivering a beautiful and diverse gallery of photos for you afterwards. I aim to capture every big and little detail with elegance.
Every photo you see displayed on my website and here are personally taken and edited by me. I do not outsource any of my work and no one will be shooting your wedding or touching your photos except me. I shoot weddings because I enjoy it, but I take it very seriously and spend a vast majority of my free time studying, practicing, and learning. I've been doing that for four years since I started and I haven't slowed down. I have had the pleasure of shooting weddings with NFL QB Russell Wilson and his wife Ciara, former NBA player Shawn Kemp, and shot locations such as Lake Como Italy, Cabo Mexico, LA, Salt Lake City, Miami, Space Needle, Mt Rainier, Seattle Aquarium, 76th Floor Colombia Tower, various Cathedrals, Indian Persian Jewish and Russian weddings, and many more luxury venues and hotels in Seattle. I want to be one of the best, most dynamic, and most stunning photographers in the world.
I am located just outside the Seattle area near Tacoma and specialize in Photography but have done video for several luxury weddings as well. I will ensure that your special day is remembered for generations to come.
I work in a blend of photojournalistic and elegant style of photography. This allows me to capture beautiful candid and initiate moments that make up your special day as it unfolds. For over four years, I have honed my camera and drone skills to give you the best possible final products, and am continuing to study and learn every day. Learning never stops. I study documentary/cultural photography from National Geographic as well as luxury/fashion photography from Vogue, Brides, and Harpers Bazaar. These are the brands and companies I aim to work with someday.
I offer a few wedding packages with a number of included services, but try to direct my clients to an all inclusive, one price package that includes everything you could want. Unlimited hours, engagement shoot, second shooter (maybe even a third), professional lighting, and an elegant shareable digital gallery. After your wedding, I will edit your products in my beautiful style and give them to you via digital files and optional prints.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope we get to work together!

We hired so many wonderful vendors for our August wedding and Seth was one of our favorites! He did such an AMAZING job!! With our experience working with Seth, we quickly realized he’s not just another photographer out there. He really immersed himself into being a part of our wedding and is very personable. He takes the most breathtaking photos and all his photos tell a story. His love for photography definitely shows in his work and now my husband and I have so many memories to look back on and enjoy. Thank you Seth (and Jess) for all your effort on our big day!! We can't thank you enough. Awesome person and an even better photographer! Totally worth every penny. Our corgi who was a part of our wedding loved him too. 😊
Working with Seth was nothing short but amazing! He was very responsive and proactive in reaching out to both my wife and I. His communication was excellent in figuring out what vision my wife and I were hoping to achieve for our wedding. He dedicates a lot of time and effort into his passion and it definitely shows in the work he displays. He was with us from the beginning of the day and was one of the last ones to leave on our special day. If you want someone who will give you his all, you’ve found the one! I would recommend Seth to everyone and anyone looking for a professional who would be invested in you. Definitely won’t be the last time that we’ll be working with him, whether if it’s for ourselves or referrals we send to him! He’s quite the personality himself!
We hired Seth two years before our wedding and really enjoyed working with him for our engagement photoshoot, Rehersal dinner and wedding. He is very professional and skilled at what he does. Over the past two years, we witnessed him attending multiple workshops internationally to assure offering the best to his clients. He is also very on-time with has very reasonable prices. Our guests and family really enjoyed having Seth as our photographer as well. We couldn't imagine having anyone else documenting our special day!
Seth, we can't thank you enough for the incredible work you did capturing our wedding day. you have been amazing to work with. The pictures you delivered are absolutely gorgeous! The way you portrayed our special moments is truly remarkable. Your dedication, professionalism, and your attention to detail was evident in every shot. The images felt like they were pulled from a fairy tale, with some resembling enchanting magazine covers. What stood out the most to us were the candid shots that encapsulated all our cherished memories so beautifully. Thanks for capturing our special moments so beautifully and making our special day memorable. We will cherish these memories forever.
Overall, working with you, Seth, was a dream. Your talent and passion for photography truly shine through in your work, and we feel lucky to have had you as our wedding photographer. We highly recommend Seth Cartwright Photography to anyone looking to capture their special moments with grace and creativity.
Seth was prompt, professional, friendly, and took AMAZING photos. He has an amazing eye for detail, and he took photos of our wedding that we will treasure for years to come. He had a clear plan and ideas for the wedding, and he communicated very well. I cannot recommend Seth enough for wedding photos.
Seth was an absolute pleasure to work with! He truly loves his job and that certainly shines through in his beautiful photos. He's so easygoing and helped my husband and I feel really relaxed and natural in front of the camera. We are so pleased with how our wedding photos turned out and it has been so nice going through our album and seeing all of the laughing and smiling faces!
I found Seth on Instagram a couple week before my wedding and I fall in love with his wedding jobs! I reached out him and he responded on time every time that we talk about my wedding shooting ideas. He’s very nice, funny and professional guy! He made my special day even more special. After 4 weeks (everything on time) I have plenty photos to enjoy for life!
Highly recommended :)
I cannot thank Seth enough for the BEAUTIFUL wedding photos he took of me and my husband, these are memories we will cherish forever. He was very accommodating and made sure he listened to all my photo ideas. He always made us feel comfortable and confident during the pictures!! I would recommend him to all my friends who are planning a wedding.
I truly can't say enough good things about Seth and his work. You spend more time with your photographer than anyone else at your wedding, making them (imo) the most important vendor that you'll choose. You can't go wrong with Seth Cartwright!
Looking at his portfolio, I knew I loved his work right away and I was SO grateful when he created a custom package within our budget.
His passion for photography is evident in his work as well as his personality.
Being plus size, I was really nervous about having my photo taken. I don't know how to pose, I'm not super comfortable in my body, and I've only had professional photos taken twice as an adult. Once we started though, Seth made us feel so comfortable. He would get excited about a shot and say things like, "This is so good", or "You guys look amazing", or even just "beautiful". That made all the difference for me. Seth's excitement was contagious and he made me feel confident and comfortable the entire day. I really needed that confidence boost and I'm so grateful for it!
When we got our photos back I was blown away. I knew they would be good, but they looked like they belonged in a magazine! He PERFECTLY captured the mood and emotion of our day, which cannot be understated. Thank you so much Seth!!
Seth Cartwright's exceptional photography skills and passion for his craft made our hot air balloon wedding an unforgettable experience. From the moment we met him, his enthusiasm and creative ideas put us at ease. He embraced the challenge of capturing our special day on a hot air balloon ride with a five-foot-long selfie stick and special lenses, resulting in breathtaking shots that perfectly encapsulated the sense of adventure and romance.
Throughout the entire process, Seth's professionalism and easy-going nature made the photoshoot a delightful and stress-free experience. He skillfully orchestrated the shoot, ensuring that every moment was beautifully documented. Despite the challenges of shooting in a hot air balloon, he remained calm and focused, delivering natural and genuine photographs that reflected the joy and love surrounding us.
We were genuinely touched by Seth's dedication and generosity. He saved the day by lending us his GoPro when we encountered a technical issue with ours, going above and beyond to ensure that every precious moment was captured. Additionally, his swift delivery of a sneak peek of our wedding photos within a day allowed us to relive the excitement and share the joyous occasion with our loved ones.
Choosing Seth Cartwright as our wedding photographer was a decision we will always cherish. His exceptional talent, reasonable pricing, and genuine care for his clients made our wedding day even more special. We are forever grateful for the lasting memories he created for us through his artistry. Thank you, Seth!
Seth was hands down the best photographer we’ve ever worked with. He made everyone feel comfortable while taking photos, even me as I am camera shy. He listened to everyone’s ideas for fun photos and made each shot count! The quality of his work was amazing and I will definitely use him for other life events in the future!
Seth was an amazing Videographer he was able to capture so many special moments we now can look back on and cherish from our special day. Not only did he go above and beyond he also had great communication, strong work ethic, he was hardworking, talented and professional. If you're on the fence about having a videographer, do it because your special day will fly by so quick and having these visual memories made all the difference.
We got married 1.21.23 at Kelley Farm and Seth was AMAZING! We are so happy that we had him capture our special day! From the very beginning when he did our engagement shoot we had so much fun and fell in love with the photos he took! I knew he was going to capture our day perfectly and he definitely did! Has amazing attention to detail and can tell he has so much passion for what he does!
He makes you feel at ease and felt like we could go to him for anything. He definitely helped relieve some day of stress!
Thank you Seth for making our time with you so effortless, FUN and being the best hype man! Don't look any further, hire Seth for you special day! You won't regret it! :)
Seth was AMAZING and I mean amazing!!! It is very obvious he has talent and was def shown in the photos he took. We are SO pleased with how they turned out. The coloring and tone and quality are perfect! We will cherish them for years!!
Seth himself is great from the start. Very friendly in a personable way, but also professional with the whole process. Was communicative the whole time and I always knew what I could expect.
Seth did an absolute BEAUTIFUL job capturing our big day. We had an awesome initial call to go over our wants and needs and he showed up on-time the day-of ready to go. Seth's awesome attitude made the day so much better and definitely calmed my nerves. We got a 30ish second teaser very shortly after our day and the full video and additional footage n a quick turnaround time. He did such an AWESOME job capturing the emotions and special moments of the day. We also got some cool drone footage in our video which was an added bonus. We could not be happier with our entire experience with Seth!!
I feel Seth was honestly the best decision I could possibly have made for my wedding. He was professional and wasn't thrown off at all by any of our random singing and craziness! I had a darker themed wedding and he edited our images in a couple ways to mix it up a bit. I ended up loving damn near every picture, when I usually dislike pictures of myself. He's magic I tell you. And his pricing is surprisingly very reasonable! I will 100% contact him first in the future for any photographer needs.
Thank you Seth for taking care of mine and my husbands wedding pictures back in March 2022. You were so thoughtful and creative during the process due to it being a very small/intimate wedding. We didn’t have a designated picture area so you helped create one. Thank you so much!
