Just Us | Lake Havasu Arizona

So… when we were recently in Lake Havasu Arizona, we decided we would try some couples photos – with a tripod and a remote.

Of ourselves. By ourselves. This is hard stuff, much harder than you would think. Not just because other people stare at you (we got a few honks while we were by the cactus), but because the remote was sort of … special. It had to be at just the right angle. Not to mention, posing yourself is difficult stuff. We included a quick blooper reel at the bottom.

Please note: This is a personal, real-life post by Kate & Josh – if you strictly want to read client related posts, please click here.

We managed to get a few that we loved, and it just reaffirms our absolute love for the Lake Havasu area. We have decided to market a bit more heavily there in the upcoming 2019 and 2020 wedding seasons – especially for fall weddings. This place is truly paradise. We were lucky enough to have an entire day to ourselves to explore, and even that wasn’t enough time. Until we meet again, Lake Havasu!

This feels a little weird posting an entire blog of photos of us – but hey, here goes!

Where should we adventure to next? Let us know in the comments!

How long have you been a Snohomish Wedding Photographer?

Kate has been photographing since 1997 and Josh started in 2011. We started photographing weddings together then.

Josh and Kate of GSquared Weddings have photographed over 643 weddings together across more than 15 years — specifically in the Seattle and Snohomish County area. That’s not a flex for its own sake. It means that when your timeline runs 20 minutes late, when the clouds roll in over your outdoor ceremony, or when your reception venue is lit exclusively by Edison bulbs and bad overhead lighting, we’ve been there. Hundreds of times. And we know exactly what to do.

As a husband and wife team, we also bring something no two-photographer strangers can replicate — we communicate without words, we read a room together, and we move through your day as a unit. A Snohomish wedding photographer with genuine field experience doesn’t just take better photos — they protect your entire day experience. That’s what 643+ weddings actually buys you.

How do I know GSquared Weddings is the right Snohomish wedding photography team for us?

Honestly? You’ll know pretty fast. If you read through our work and our words and thought these people get it — trust that instinct.

We’re built for couples who want their day to feel like themselves, not a performance. Couples who want a team that genuinely shows up — not just with cameras, but as timeline wranglers, veil fixers, chaos calm-ers, and two people who will absolutely tear up at your first look. We’ve spent 15 years and 643+ weddings earning the trust of couples across Seattle and Snohomish County, and our approach has never changed: protect your vision, protect your experience, and keep your messy, beautiful, real love story safe.

If you’re looking for heavily staged, ultra-polished, everybody-stand-still photography — we’re probably not your people, and we’ll tell you that honestly. But if you want someone to be there for all of it, exactly as it happens? That’s exactly what we do.

What is your photography style, and will my Snohomish wedding photos look natural or overly edited?

At GSquared Weddings, our photography style is rooted in one core belief: real is always better than perfect. We shoot in a documentary-editorial style — meaning we’re capturing what’s actually happening, not directing a magazine spread. Candid tears, windblown hair, belly laughs mid-vow, the flower girl losing it in the corner — that’s what we’re after.

Our editing is clean, timeless, and true to life. We don’t chase trendy presets or heavy filters that will feel dated in five years. What you see in our galleries is what actually happened that day — the light, the color, the emotion — preserved honestly. Your Snohomish wedding photos will look like you, not like a template.
