YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER in Tacoma
Not your city?
Bright Weddings & Quince photographs and films weddings and quinceañeras in Tacoma, WA from $1,200 for photography and $2,200 for photo + video, plus the published $500 travel band from Yakima — on your receipt before you book. A bilingual family team, the same prices as home, and a planning meeting before the day.
Tacoma gives a photographer the waterfront — Foss Waterway, Ruston Way, Point Defiance with the Sound and the mountain behind it — and rooms with real character: the Museum of Glass, Hotel Murano, the Foss Waterway Seaport. It is the easiest west-side city for us to reach, straight down Highway 410 or over Snoqualmie, and a lot of Yakima families have relatives here, which is how we first started making the drive.
Tacoma and Pierce County quinceañeras — Lakewood, Puyallup, Federal Way — are big, bilingual and beautifully organized, and we shoot them the way we shoot them at home: la misa, la entrada, el vals, el brindis, the surprise dance, in Spanish for the family and English for the friends. Weddings here often split between a church in town and a reception on the water; Diamond's two photographers cover both without anyone rushing.
Tacoma is a 2–3 hour drive from Yakima, so a $500 travel line is added to any package — shown up front, never at checkout.

Yes: the $500 line appears on your receipt from Step 1 of booking and on the pricing page. It never changes at checkout.
Yes — that is the bundle, and it saves $500–$800 over two vendors. One planning meeting, one crew, nobody in each other's shot.
Always — by video or in person. We reach out right after you book, then plan the timeline and your must-have photos together. A quick text works if you prefer.
Deposits are $350 for Silver, $450 for Gold and $550 for Diamond, paid online when you book. The balance can be split into three interest-free payments of $400, $500 or $667 depending on your package.
Yes — the same team covers both, which is why the bundle costs less than booking two vendors. Every bundle includes edited photos, a highlight film, an online gallery and print rights; Gold and Diamond add a full-length ceremony edit and a social reel.
Sí. Our team is fully bilingual and this whole site is written in Spanish, not machine-translated. Tu abuela can direct the family photo in Spanish and your friends can ask for a retake in English — same photographer, same smile.
We photograph all of Washington. Travel is included within an hour of Yakima (Ellensburg, Sunnyside, the Lower Valley). Farther venues add a published drive band — $200 for 1–2 hours, $500 for 2–3 (Seattle, Tacoma), $700 for 3–4 (Spokane) — shown before you book, never at checkout.
