Who am I: Born January 1985 in Seattle to Grant & Sue Seim, I bought my first camera from a yard sale when I was seven. It promptly broke temporarily ending my photographic career. Around age twelve I really started getting serious about photography and photographed at my first wedding when I was sixteen. When I was seventeen I started Seim Photography.
I have no fancy degrees to prove I know what I’m doing. I’ll leave proof to my results. I’ve learned from some amazing photographers and by plenty of trial and error. I continue to learn and always will, by listening, observing and analyzing. I love talking shop and I really enjoy the technology behind photography and pushing the limits of what’s possible.
The Mission: In a world where good service seems to be in short supply, I like to tip the scales the other way a bit by making clients have a great experience. I’m not satisfied unless they are and I’m here to help make their experience and thier photos are unforgettable.
Where I go: I shoot portraits on location throughout Washington State and in my Central WA studio. I also offer destination weddings, events and speaking engagements pretty much anywhere.
My Hobbies: Among other interests, I’m a ventriloquist, a square dance caller (ya different I know, but fun). I also do vocals even a little yodeling. Of course I’m a technology geek too. As if I’m not busy enough, my younger brother Nathan and I are in the process of writing some fiction novels.
My bottom line: I’m a Christian and I love my family, wife, kids and job. What good is having everything, if in reality I have nothing. God has blessed me and I plan to use the talent he loaned to me the best I can. I don’t know what’s coming tomorrow so I’ll take it as it comes and try to produce something of lasting value.Continue reading about the Seim family in the complete Bio…
