Hi, I'm Lena
There’s something about timeless views, playful reflections of light, and the salty air of the coast that stirs up a part of yourself that can’t help but be drawn to unhurried, intentional days.
I’m Lena, a Seattle wedding and family photographer who wants you to feel just like that — carving out memories, taking photos with no time limit, and feeling right at home. You’ll miss these moments one day, and I won’t let them pass by.
Meet Lena
I use photography to instill warmth in the lives of others and, in response, I’ve received some of the most heartwarming reviews.
“Her talent for finding rich emotions within a still frame is amazing. We knew after meeting with her she was it.”
Ben & Erleene - Seattle, wa

I’ve taken everything into consideration — the time that often seems to run out, the stress of finding outfits and the one question you almost always push to the side — will this be worth it? By taking care of these needs, and more, you’ll not only find yourself settling effortlessly, into the moment, but you’ll also walk away with timeless artwork to display in your home, and pass down as the years go by.
"So patient and so talented! I'm chomping at the bit to see more!"
A big, huge shout out to our official photographer, Lena Porter! So patient and so talented! I'm chomping at the bit to see more! Throughout the wedding she could be seen quietly looking around, choosing the perfect moment to snap and capture... Like a waltz, moving with the rhythm of the party.

Timeless romance
My hope is that my images make you feel what a moment was like. That the love shared radiates off the screen and gives you goosebumps. Like your favorite movie you can watch over and over again, I’m inspired by romantic nostalgia and soft connection.
We document your wedding with the same thoughtfulness and attention to detail you had while planning it.
In the presence of great love, something happens beyond the obvious. It’s a nuanced language of in-between moments that speak to the grand intentions words cannot.
The soft touch of your partner's hand, a tear down your father's cheek while saying vows, it’s the way the ones you love can see you in a way that no one else can. These are the moments on your wedding day that often go unseen but mean the most when looking back. Don't let those moments slip away; keep them close forever...
"Having Lena capture our day was one of the best decisions I made in the wedding planning process."
Tess & sean - Seattle, WA
Having gone through the experience of being a fiancé to newlywed bliss, I know just how important these once in a lifetime memories can be. At the end of the day the dress comes off, the cake is eaten, and your family and friends may never be together like this again. I photograph each wedding day with the same care I would expect of my own, so you can look back years from now and remember how it felt in the moment.
