I’m Carl Petersen, a Wedding and Event Photographer in the Seattle/Tacoma area. My style is a balanced blend of photojournalism and artistic modern poses. I lived in Los Angeles for 11 years pursuing acting and filmmaking. My experience directing and producing has greatly shaped the way I shoot and work with clients. I started working more behind the camera in 2009 and developed a new love in phot
ography. I went on to train and work with some of the top photographers in the nation covering high-end Los Angeles weddings, private events on Rodeo Drive, and new year’s eve parties on the Las Vegas strip. Besides photography, I’ve written and produced 8 short films. I have a horrendous amount of training in improv comedy. I’m a painter, published artist and an avid outdoorsmen who loves backpacking in the wilderness and hanging with my daughter. I have a serious travel bug that’s taken me all over the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Central America. Whether it’s gathering a large group for a family photo or positioning a groom for the moment he’ll see his stunning bride for the first time, I’ve developed a talent for capturing people at their best. I’ll leave you with smiles, tears, and laughter you’ll want to keep in a frame for a lifetime.
