Lorraine Marie Photography | Modern Portraits for the Seattle Eastside bio picture
  • Welcome to My Photojournal!

    I once heard it said that "...our achievements grow according to the size of our dreams and the degree to which we are aware of our destiny." I like that…a lot. Five years ago my dreams were small - but as time has gone on, and the awareness of my destiny continues to unfold before me, my dreams are beginning to soar!

    I am not just a photographer – I am a friend who is here to create motivation and opportunity for you to express your life to the fullest with those you love, capturing those moments for you to treasure for a lifetime to come.

    Life tells every story…once. Let me help you to start telling your story today! ~Lorraine Marie

angie and tyler – married! ~lorraine marie, wedding photography in seattle

It’s always a special honor to be invited to photograph a wedding, and even more so when there is a long-lasting connection to the couple.  Gabriel and I were honored to photograph Angie and her husband Tyler this weekend.  We’ve known Angie’s family long before she was born, and watched her grow from the most beautiful toddler I’ve ever seen into the most beautiful bride.  Their day was filled with so much color, laughter, joy, friendship and love, and it was so sweet to share in that time with them.

Alyssa captured this beautiful portrait of Angie while we were upstairs in the master bedroom for window light shots.  I love it!

Another shout-out to Alyssa’s creative eye on the shoe-shot below.  Good job!

Just one of the many benefits of working as a team at weddings.  While I was capturing the full group jumping shot, Gabriel was able to get in close for some great expression shots of the bride and groom.  Fun!

Tyler and Angie, blessings to you both on your new lives together.  May your marriage be filled with much joy, happiness, laughter, friendship and love.  Congratulations!

geanina and vasi – married! ~lorraine marie, wedding photography in seattle

Geanina and Vasi had a beautiful wedding day from start to finish.  This was the second Romanian wedding Gabriel and I have photographed, and it was so cool to see another culture’s traditions in the ceremony.  I actually felt quite at home photographing their celebration, as I grew up with a Russian heritage – there are quire a few similarities in the Eastern European cultures.  Geanina had her schedule down to perfection, so we were able to spend quite a bit of time before the  ceremony at Carillon Point in the morning, and after the reception at Newcastle Golf Club for some sunset shots.  We’re going to be able to make a beautiful album for them, and I’m excited to do the design.  Enjoy!

I LOVED photographing Maryam for her senior photos.  First of all, she had on the most adorable dress she picked up in a boutique shop in Paris – how chic is that?  It fit her beautifully, and was an excellent choice.  Maryam is a talented young actor to boot, so getting great expressions was a breeze.  Here are Maryam’s favorites from her senior session..enjoy!

Sereina - Gorgeous!

gretchen and garrett – married! ~broadmoor golf club, seattle

Gretchen and Garrett’s wedding day was filled with beauty all around – from the beauty of their surroundings at Broadmoor Golf Club and ceremony at St. Luke’s in Bellevue, to the beauty of the perfectly warm day, and especially the beauty of the love of family and friends, their day lived up to all they had hoped and expected.  Such a great way to start off married life!

Congratulations, Gretchen and Garrett!  May you have wonderful years together filled with much laughter, joy, fun and love.  Blessings!
