Hello brides, grooms, and beloveds!

I’m Batya, and I’m a Pacific Northwest wedding officiant, videographer, photographer, and content creator!

Photography, Videography, & Content Creation

“My husband and I are crying happy tears. We are so thankful that you were there to capture these special moments we did not get to see with our own eyes.”

- Amanda, Bride

Background

I’m Batya (pronounced Bot-Yuh), a wife & mother of two!

My background originally is a career in content creation and social media management for small businesses and events - and after marrying my husband I discovered my passion to create videos and photograph memories for weddings!

About Me

“She's smart, professional, and fast. She is fabulous.”

- Disa McCallister, Former Client

My Approach

Deciding how to celebrate the most important moments of your life can feel overwhelming; that’s why I collaborate with couples individually about special moments of their big day, style inspiration, cultural priorities, and take delicate care in considering how each couple envisions starting their next chapter together.

I center the understanding that the moments I capture and lead are ones that will be looked back on again and again for many years; that’s why I offer detailed consultations planning for how these moments should be remembered. After signing a service agreement and accepting a deposit to hold the date, we plan a collaboration together to sit down virtually and discuss all the important details of your day.

Booking Guide

I invite you to review my session guides and decide how I best fit into the timeline of your special occasion!

From there, you may fill out an inquiry form telling me all about your big day!
If it’s a match, I will send you a service agreement to sign, and the deposit submission link!

A nonrefundable deposit is required to secure your date - exact amount depends on booking, please send an inquiry to me for a detailed quote!
We build the vision for your big day together!

1. I sent you a Get to Know You survey all about the details - dress code, the vibe, who’s who and what’s what!

2. We have a fun 30 minute virtual consultation (or two, depending on your booking selection) to talk allllllll about how you'd like me to capture your big moments!
On your big day all you have to do is enjoy. This is your moment.

No problem. For a $600 privacy fee, your wedding will not be shared by me, and I will only edit your media in private without prying eyes. Photos will be delivered in a password protected album and deleted from my personal devices after delivery.
