Powers Photography Studios

My wedding was 2 years ago today actually and I still have a hard time looking at the pics. It started off great, I felt I really connected with the owner and he was so kind & you could tell he put a lot of love into what he does. After the owner had heard out my Mom's horrible wedding photography story that ultimately left her with no wedding pictures we chose Powers based on the promise of good picture content and even better quality. The problems arose when my photographer I was matched with left their company and I was handed over to someone else. I only found out my photographer left after almost 3 weeks of silence, once I finally tried to just cancel with them.. I wish I would have. I was handed over & my wants were not listened to on the type of pictures I was looking for, or the content I wanted in the pictures. The day of the wedding the photographer walked in on our videographer trying to film our first look and picked up my dress to move me so it was totally interrupted.. I could go on but it's just a lost cause. No refund was given, nor another shoot set up. I had such high hopes in the beginning. I'm sure my experience was the exception but I just wanted to put it out there.

My husband and I got married in July, 2018. I remember sitting in the car the day after our wedding, driving to our Honeymoon thinking - Wow, our photographer (Zach Holden) was the MVP of our wedding day. No question. Our "Wedding Day Coordinator" ended up being virtually non existent - and Zach stepped up in so many ways. He fixed bouquets, had band aids for blisters, coordinated with the DJ... the list goes on. Oh, and not to mention - he was an amazing photographer! Zach captured both posed and candid photos beautifully. Multiple people told me our pictures were the most beautiful wedding photo's they'd ever seen! Every time I look at our wedding photos, I find a new favorite. I'm so grateful we had Zach and the Powers Team on board to capture our wedding day!

We had Seppi as our photographer and absolutely loved him! We did an engagement photo session with him as well and that really helped, as we were able to get to know him and be more comfortable. He did such a great job as making us feel beautiful and he captured so many great moments. Our family loved him as well and he did so great with the kiddos! We would definitely recommend Seppi and Powers Studios for your engagement/wedding photos!

Powers photography was a joy to work with! Our photographer, Peter made taking our wedding photos very comfortable and fun! We would highly recommend them to anyone needing a photographer.

My photographer Seppi was dedicated to getting the best shots, I couldn't have asked for a better person to help me remember my special day for years to come.

Peter was our photographer. He did a great job capturing our special moments at the wedding. I really enjoyed working with him. He also shot our engagement photos and did a fantastic job. Powers Photography Studio was so easy to work with. They took the worry out of our wedding. Peter even added a sweet little comment to wrap up our night, "Have Fun Storming the Castle". We had Princess Bride references all through out the wedding.

I absolutely loved working with Powers Studios. We had heard good things about them from different venues that we had looked into as well as at the Bridal Show we attended. They sent us a short survey to get a feel of what kind of photos we liked and the kind of personality we were looking for in our photographer. While I haven't seen the pictures yet since I just got married less than two weeks ago, I can say that I'm sure they're great. Bitna, our photographer, showed us some pictures she took during the wedding and they were stunning! Bitna was also great at telling us what looked good, where to look, where to put our hands, etc. I had written on the survey that we weren't comfortable in front of the camera so we would appreciate the direction. I would definitely recommend using them.

I have nothing but praise for Powers Studios. From the beginning to the end we were treated with amazing professionalism. Seppi was an absolute blast to work with. His energy and personality made stepping away from our wedding for pictures fun instead of a chore. Everyone was commenting on how great he was to talk to and work with. We will absolutely be using Powers for future family photo shoots!

We didn't know what to expect but the staff at Powers was well prepared to answer questions and tailor a package for our needs. With so many photographers available, they make it a point to understand your style, dynamics, and taste in order to pair you with the best match. In addition to the initial interview, there's even an fun and statically based style quiz! Once you are paired up, they allow 30 days for you to meet with the photographer before making your reservation final - to ensure the best fit. We LOVE our match and cannot wait to get shooting! In addition, the team is VERY responsive and normally replies within 24hrs (if not just a few!).

Very professional. Great photos. Would highly recommend.

Pictures preserve milestone memories. And that is how Powers Studios excels! They prioritize the best for their clients by matching them with one of their stellar photographers. They are professional, great with people, capture beautiful images of special moments in one's life, deliver your photographs with incredible speed on a lovely blog and provide beautiful display products. My husband and I are very pleased with Powers Studios, especially our photographer, Cambrae! We'd highly recommend Powers capture your special day!

As a Bride, planning a wedding can be extremely overwhelming with all of the unknowns. Our photographer was welcoming and energetic, and it was just what we needed to calm some of those pre-wedding nerves. I cannot wait to see our photos after the wedding!

It has only been a couple weeks since our wedding and I am beyond grateful for the entire team at Powers. We booked Powers almost a year in advance because I fell in love with their work at the Seattle Bridal Show. It is evident that they want to be sure they met our needs. We took a couple of surveys to help determine our photographic preferences and assign us to the appropriate photographer. Both Natalia and Laurel were super flexible and willing to talk through ideas and contract changes with me. The night of the wedding was a total blast with Laurel and Rachel! Laurel’s creative eye was unbeatable! We just received a “sneak peek” of our photos and they are stunning. I would work with Powers again and again because I trust their system, their staff and their photographers - 110% worth the investment.

I was so incredibly lucky to win a raffle at the Portland Bridal Show for a discount! After completing a style survey, Powers team paired my then fiance and I with Peter. He couldn't have been a better fit for the two of us and our pictures are absolutely wonderful. You could tell Peter really loves what he does, and his enthusiasm put our nerves at ease on our big day. I couldn't be happier with our whole experience with Powers, I HIGHLY recommend them.

Powers Studios was awesome to work with. We really liked the matching process to find the perfect photographer for our style preferences. The algorithm ended up matching us perfectly to Zach at Powers. The whole process felt very personable and we were so comfortable with Zach. Response time was extremely quick when we had questions or concerns about the day. Although he took our beers away for the perfect photos on our wedding day, the photos turned out perfectly and numerous guests remarked on how progessional and on top of his game he was! Thank you Powers for giving us the perfect photos to remember our engagement and wedding for years to come!

My husband and I had an amazing experience with Powers. The quality of the photos was incredible and we really appreciated the thoughtfulness and calm demeanor our photographer, Peter. Every team member we interacted with was timely in their response to texts/emails, even after the wedding. They helped make our day so special!

From the initial consultation, to the wedding day and beyond, Powers made everything so seamless!!! I love the consultation and the survey they do to find the perfect photographer that will match your personality and style! Tom was amazing!!!! The photos he captured with our engagement shoot and the wedding are phenomenal!!!!! He put us at ease so quickly and was able to catch such great candid shots of us and all of our guests! Thank you for everything Powers!!!!

Choosing Powers was hands down one of the best decisions we made! From the initial first contact, they were able to work with our CRAZY schedule, and kept in constant contact with us. After matching our personalities and tastes, we were matched with Seppi. He went above and beyond for us every time. We ended up having two engagement sessions, and he was great about them both. The day of the wedding, he did a great job of calming the bride, keeping everyone in check, and all on the same page. Our second photographer, Krisna, did amazing as well the day of the wedding. The guys all loved him and both shooters did a great job of blending in at the wedding, we never had to worry about where they were or if they were getting the shots. Overall, HIGHLY recommend. The quality and professionalism is top notch!

Can't say enough about how impressed we were with Powers Photography Studios and our photographer! Mike was very creative, patient and flexible with our wedding party and our crazy weather! Mike used the rain storm to get some unbelievable shots and we so much appreciated him going the extra mile (standing out in the rain) to capture our special day! The staff at Powers Studios has been nothing but accommodating and fun to work with. They are quick to respond and work hard to meet your needs. Would highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Powers Studio and our photographer, Jennifer! We came to Powers a little bit differently from most couples, as we had to find a last-minute photographer a month before our wedding when our previous photographer fell through. We had quick responses from the Powers team and they were able to match us up to a great photographer. The staff and both of our photographers (Jennifer and Krishna) were professional and well-experienced, which we truly appreciated. Before our wedding day, Jennifer made sure to meet with us to go over the schedule for our wedding day and also discuss our shot list that we wanted. We just got our wedding photos back and we are very satisfied and happy with the results! We got all the shots we wanted on our shot list and our wedding was photographed beautifully!

Powers was amazing! Zach, our main shooter, was the most prepared and professional person at the event, even more so than the planner (who was also lovely). I was pleased every single step of the way. Is there a sixth star I could give them?

Love the survey that matches you with a photographer. Loved our photographer. She made us feel very comfortable and relaxed.

Powers Studios is FANTASTIC!! Our photographer, Lindsay was so laid back yet organized and so helpful. She kept everyone together on the 104 degree day and kept us laughing and on our game all day. Great experience overall.

It is such a hard decision picking a photographer for the biggest day of your life, and Laurel exceeded our expectations! She not only took AMAZING photos, she was so great to hang out with all day, such a sweet person and so talented. She went above and beyond for me, every time she would go get my bouquet from the vase it would be dripping water and she would dab it on her own pants so that I wouldn't get wet. If I could, I would rate them a 10. I got my pictures back in 30 days, there were over 1,000 to look at which was way too fun, there were so many that I loved that I honestly don't have a favorite. Thank you again Laurel!

Powers Photography is amazing. They are very professional and are very tentative to our needs. We couldn't have picked anyone better, we are so thrilled and excited to see our photos.

Powers Studios was a great choice for us. Working in the Portland wedding industry, I was familiar with their work and reputation. One con I would say is their system of matching photographers based on a survey - just not quite the same experience as meeting your photographer in person when you're booking, as opposed to at a later time. That being said, we were matched with Zach Holden who was AMAZING. The pictures turned out gorgeous, and we felt that the second photographer was worth the extra cash as well (we had a big bridal party, so she took the groomsmen/women and he took the bridesmaids - she also took a lot of shots of the cocktail hour, detail shots of the reception, and our guests while he was doing family photos). My husband and I aren't especially comfortable in front of the camera, but he made us feel really comfortable and told us (nicely) what to do so that the photos turned out wonderfully. He even pulled a bobby pin out of his camera bag during family photos for my younger sister! Overall, we were very happy with our experience during the wedding, as well as the finished photos.

Seppi was amazing! I can't say enough about his professionalism, ability to keep us laughing, and the nautical gift he has at photography. I will definitely be recommending Powers Photography's services to all my friends and family.

We chose Powers Studios for our wedding photographer and we love our pictures! Cambrae was lots of fun and took beautiful pictures!

I really liked that Powers Studios took the stress out of finding a wedding photographer by having us complete a survey about what style of photographer we were looking for, then assigning us one. I was apprehensive at first to put that much trust in a survey, but they really did a great job at matching us with a photographer whose style was exactly what we wanted. Our photographer was Laurel and she was amazing at working with us to get the creative and interesting shots we wanted of our wedding. My husband and I both feel a bit awkward in front of the camera, but she did a great job of giving us direction on how to pose and really made us feel more comfortable.

Cambrae was a wonderful point person and photographer. Her style was perfect for us. She was a great help on our big day and truly great with kids. Would highly recommend her to anyone.

Powers Photography is unbeaten in terms of the quality and the professionalism of their service. We loved that they took an active part in shaping our schedule for the day based on best practices. We also loved the online survey they had us take to learn about our style and photography preferences! We were assigned a photographer based on our wants and needs and knew we were getting exactly what we hoped for with Peter. He was, of course, with us nearly the entire day and was always smiling and capturing important moments for us without ever being intrusive. I don't know how he did it! We received our photos in a timely manner after the wedding and are so pleased with how they turned out! They have been so fun to show off! We know our photos perfectly documented each part of our favorite day and will last a lifetime. Sidenote: Powers was kind enough to gift my mother and I with tickets to the Bridal Unveiled event in Portland, which was incredible. In their raffle, we were very lucky and I won a gift certificate to Charlotte's Weddings! I was able to find my accessories and veil there because of Powers' invitation! Small gestures like that made a big impact on our wedding day!

We worked with Zach at Powers Photography for our wedding and he truly went above and beyond! We had two pre-wedding meetings with him and he was so accommodating at both, facetiming my husband at the first so he could be included while he was away at Army training in Oklahoma and meeting with us late in the day at the second to work around our work schedules. On the day of our wedding he was so helpful, assisting our wedding party with the boutonnieres and even helping with my bustle when my bridesmaids were having a hard time. He made everyone feel comfortable and managed to gather my husband's and my large families (which is not easy to do) to get full family shots. The photos turned out wonderful and he did such a fantastic job capturing all of the important moments of our day as well as behind the scenes shots. We are so happy with Zach and our wedding photos!

Powers Photography was the first vendor we booked after our venue. At the initial meeting they explained their process for matching us with their photographers, which included a survey where our style preferences were taken into consideration. We had many questions and they were answered clearly. The price was a lot to us up front, but we knew we wanted to invest in the best pictures for our wedding day. We matched with our photographer Bitna, who took our engagement and wedding photos (a 2-day celebration). They turned out amazing despite it being a hot weekend for June. She went the extra mile for our 300+ guests, and she traveled to multiple locations to catch me getting ready, at both our parents' houses for the traditional tea ceremony, and the venue. Powers also gives you a copyright release so you can choose to print your photos yourself or share with others. Our questions were promptly answered and we never felt pressured to add additional services or buy extra packages we didn't need. We loved working with them and would highly recommend them!

One of the best decisions of our wedding was choosing Powers Photography, hands down. Just the first inquiry with Natalia, to taking a quiz to find out what photographer would best match with us, to being given the gift of Seppi Ramos our photographer, we couldn't be happier! Seppi was SO fun and easy to work with and he made our day really special and personable. Seppi spoke with us often leading up to the wedding day to get shot lists from us, talk about details of timeline, and everything we were hoping for. This type of communication is exactly what we needed to make wedding planning easy! My husband and I are kind of dorky and awkward around a camera, but Seppi eased us into poses and prompted us to just have fun! We would highly recommend everyone to Powers and Seppi and our family will now be using Powers for years and events to come! We are blown away by our wedding photos and would choose Powers over and over again. Everything turned out better than we could've dreamed. Thank you so much Powers, especially to Seppi!

Our photographer Peter went above and beyond! He came out to Timberline Lodge the night before our wedding and took photos of the gorgeous sunset that erupted and later some shots under the stars since the clouds cleared. He didn't have to do any of that! We had only hired him to shoot our brunch wedding the day after. I never could have dreamed that we would have gotten such gorgeous photos! He was so good with our family, friends, and was super adventurous about setting up amazing shots! We couldn't have been more impressed!

Powers was great to work with! We went with them after a first consultation, where we felt very comfortable. We then went through a bunch of photos and filled out the survey they provided, and they assigned us a photographer. We really liked Lindsay! She was wonderful to work with! Everyone responded fairly quickly to our emails, and when I asked for additional hours and a second photographer, they were able to add this to our package, including keeping the discount we got for our venue! We adored our second photographer as well! They were so great, helping us day of get the photos we wanted, and helping deal with our families. I would highly recommend working with Powers!

The entire Powers team was amazing to work with every step of the way! From Natalia who got us started and helped us figure out what we needed and the best package to fit our needs, to Seppi who was always an email away to ask questions and was always fast and professional with your responses! To Zach Holden, he was incredible! He knew what I was thinking before I did, was always there at the right time to capture the perfect moments with all the special people in our lives. He was laid back and kind and kept me calm. Zach worked with our Coordinator, DJ, family members to make sure we stayed on timeline, we had the pictures we wanted taken and kept us sane! Any one who is on the fence about investing in a photographer pick Powers. Your day will fly by so fast, and 50 years from know i'll look back and know that I made the right decision to put my wedding memories in the hands of professionals. You won't regret it! With any professional photo there are a handful that you love off the bat, but with Powers you will LOVE every one! Thank you so much for all that you did!

Powers studio has been wonderful to work with. Friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. Our photographer Tom could not have been more fun to work with! He met with me a couple times before the wedding, he was so helpful in creating our photo timeline and integrating his talent, ideas and knowledge to get the photos we will cherish forever. I enjoyed working with him and the studio and look forward to using them for future events. I have nothing but good things to say about the entire process and interaction! Thank you Tom and Powers Studio for partaking and helping to make our wedding day amazing!

From asking a question and setting up an appointment and to meeting Natalia, Powers Photography was AWESOME! From full detail of how things work and how they pick the right photographer it was great. Seppi was our photographer for our wedding and he was AMAZING! He took control when needed and good with kids. Was ok with not doing first look and was able to work things out. Very organized and good at calming my husband. Very happy we chose Powers Photography for our wedding. Highly recommend them! Thank you!

Powers is amazing..seriously AMAZING. Our photographer was Zach and I couldn't believe how personable and prepared he was. He made us feel comfortable. He had bandaids for my daughter's blister, he carried my stuff around, and tied my sons tie. And he took beautiful photos. The office staff is helpful. The process of choosing a photographer was impressive. I could name 100 more things I love about this company. Just choose them, you won't regret it 😊

My husband and I had a great experience with everyone from Powers! From Natalia to Tatum everyone I encountered did an excellent job answering my questions and getting me the information I needed. Tom our photographer also was great! He listened to everything we wanted and delivered! He had lots of great ideas for photos and really helped us capture our special day, which happened 2 days after it was supposed to! Thanks snow-pocalypse 2017. Tom went beyond the call of duty and made a special trip to our home to take pictures of guests who couldn't stay a few more days, then he laid down in the snow in 20 degree weather to get awesome shots! Thank you, Powers! Thank you, Tom!

Our daughter was married on 7.23.16 at the Aerie, and after much research we booked with Power based on their consistent high ratings. Unfortunately for us, the did not meet our expectations. The photos were nothing more than multiple random shots that an amateur could have taken. We were lucky to find one photo that was "wall worthy"! Very disappointed...having two photographers, we expected better.

Extremely professional yet personable experience. I would 100% recommend Powers Studio. Zach was prepared for every surprise situation we had and went out of his way to make sure our needs and wants were met. Thank you, I could not of asked for a better photographer. Exceptional!!!!

Powers studios let's all the experts of each area of photography do their thing. The people, persons match you with your team and relay info, the photographers takes the best photos, the editors do the editing (most photographers dislike that part, and just because your a good editor doesn't mean your pleasant at a wedding) every thing comes together in the best most hassle free way!

I have nothing but great things to say about Powers. From the initial email to setting up dates and times for our wedding, everyone has been just great! We are so excited and can't wait to see how the photos turn out.

We enjoyed working with everyone at Powers. Everyone was very easy to work with and very helpful. Our photographer, Amy was such a pleasure to work with. She was very comfortable working with our dogs during our engagement photos which made things so much easier. The engagement and wedding photos turned out amazing. We couldn't be happier.

Working with Powers Studio for our wedding was amazing! We had multiple friends use Powers Studios in the past, and they had nothing but positive experiences to share. When we looked over their body of work on their website, we were excited to select them for our wedding as well. One of the best features they provide, in our opinion, is a photography survey that matches you to a photographer. This personalizes the photographer, to your own personal style. We hired Powers Studio for our engagement and wedding photos. We were matched with Seppi, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to work with. From the first time we met him, all the way through until the end, he was a delight. When we were doing our engagement photos, we ran over our allotted time. Seppi however, did not mention this one time, and finished shooting all the way until we were satisfied that we would have a good selection. On our wedding day, we opted to have a second photographer. This was a huge benefit, as it allowed the two groups to remain separate, and take our own individual shots. Seppi was the model of happiness, and remained calm when things began to run longer than our timeline. If one thing is certain about weddings, it's that it goes by in a flash. He was somehow able to be in every area of the wedding, and took photos of things we would have missed. We now have these memories forever, to help us relive the night for the rest of our lives.

Absolutely wonderful to work with and our photos turned out stunning. Our photographer, Amy, had a wonderful eye for great shots and good light. She was good at getting smiles out of the kids too. The whole experience from start to finish was smooth.

We had a great experience with our photographer and Powers Studios! Everything went very smoothly, our photographer really helped us stay calm and have fun throughout the day, and we love the photos!

Powers Studios was great to work with; we could not have asked for a better experience! The photos turned out great and I am so happy with the moments they were able to capture. The wedding day went by fast fast and my photos capture every moment perfectly!

Excellent service and professional quality. Powers was convenient and helpful in the planning of our wedding and I would recommend them to those looking for a good studio to take care of their wedding!

I chose Powers Photography Studios to do our engagement and wedding photos last year and they were absolutely amazing from start to finish! I first emailed them asking how much they typically charge for their photography packages. I was very impressed with their work and had great reviews online. They were a little out of my price range so I thanked them for their time and wished them well. I never expected for them to email me back asking for more information about my big day to see if they could give me a custom quote. They really try to work with you and try to stay within your budget. They ask you to take several surveys to learn more about you and your fiances personal style and what you are looking for in your wedding photos. This is very time consuming but it was very helpful and helps you determine what style of wedding photos you want. Based on your answers to the surveys you are paired up with a photographer who best suits your personal style and needs for your wedding day. I had never heard about a photography studio doing this and let me tell you it makes all of the difference! We were placed with Zach and he was so attentive and listened to what we wanted. We had several meetings with him in person before our big day to hash out all of the details. Zach went above and beyond on our wedding day. Not only was he able to get every shot we wanted and discussed beforehand, he stayed later then he was contracted to get some extra shots in. We had an evening wedding and did a sparkler exit once the reception came to a close. We were packing up when he noticed we had extra sparklers on hand. He grabbed an umbrella and asked if we wanted to take some photos in the rain with the sparklers to get some really cool shots. They are some of my favorite photos from our wedding day and all because he was kind enough to stay late. After the wedding we got our photos back right when they promised we would get them. They even sent us our photos on a thumb drive in a beautiful box. They also have a rewards program that you can take advantage of to get free prints or discounts off on albums. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer.

Everyone on the Powers team was fabulous from the start to our wedding day and beyond! Laurel was so fun, energetic, and creative! We are very happy with the wonderful photos we have to keep forever :)

The entire experience with Powers was great from start to finish. They were very responsive to my calls and emails, kept me updated throughout the entire process, and everyone I corresponded with was so professional and kind. Not to mention my photographer Kiersta (and her assistant) were amazing and we are SO happy with our photos. The best part is that we own the rights to our photos so we have them on a flash drive (a neat Powers customized flash drive in its own little box) so we can order prints or view them easily anytime we want. I am SO happy with Powers and would recommend them to anyone!! We will most likely use them again in the future for family photo shoots.

We are super happy with how our wedding photos turned out and with the studio's professionalism.
