My wild beginnings as a photographer started at a creative agency Sacramento. After swimming in the waters of marketing and brutal sterile branding for a few years, I was determined to take a different direction with my photography.

I started Bear Beau to incubate my creative freedom and get back in touch with rad people experiencing a simple universal human phenomenon that drives all things; you know - that thing called LOVE?

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Luke as our wedding photographer, and we cannot recommend him enough! From start to finish, he was friendly, accommodating, and made the entire process so easy. He has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable, which really shows in the photos. Luke had fantastic ideas for photo locations and guided us through poses and moments that felt effortless but resulted in stunning pictures.

His creativity truly shone through, especially when it unexpectedly rained on our wedding day. He quickly adapted, found new locations, and turned what could have been a stressful situation into a beautiful, memorable experience. Our rainy wedding photos came out even more perfect than we could have imagined! The quality of his work is outstanding, and the turnaround time for receiving our photos was impressively fast. Luke exceeded all of our expectations, and we couldn't be happier with the results. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also a joy to work with, Luke is your guy. Thank you, Luke, for capturing our special day so perfectly!

Hire him immediately. Luke has the best energy, and he will get.the.shot. He has a ton of experience, and he has a great eye for composing a beautiful photo, from candids to posed portraits to action shots. He did our engagement photos and our wedding photos, and we could not be happier. We hope to find reasons to work with Luke again in the future!

We loved working with Luke for our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. Not only does he take great pictures, but he has a calm presence that puts you at ease. Luke has a great eye for shots that look good, and he was helpful in answering non photography related wedding questions as well. : He is kind and funny and we would definitely recommend him to anyone.

My fiancee and I had the best experience! Luke was fun, energetic, made us feel so comfortable, and 100% captured the vision we had for our engagement pictures. The experience was so much fun! We highly recommend Luke for any photography services. He also helped us pick the perfect location, outfits, and feeling comfortable behind the camera. We were also very happy with how fast we received our pictures, they came out amazing!

We couldn't have been happier with Luke as our wedding photographer! He is talented, energetic, responsive, communicative, and overall fun to be around. We loved that his style is less posed and more candid. He even enthusiastically got on board with our idea to hike up to a mountain for our engagement shoot! We loved our wedding photos so much and would recommend Luke to anyone looking for the person to capture their special day

Luke was hands down such an amazing photographer. He listens well and gets all the photos you want on top of suggesting other awesome shots that look good. He has a very good eye and gives direction well. He was such a joy to work with. He's very friendly and works well with the other vendors.

Luke was the photographer for our wedding at Chateau Lil in Woodinville. We found him through Google and Instagram search and knew right away that he was the right fit. We love how easy it was to speak to Luke and how quickly he understood our vision. We're both pretty reserved and shy but Luke managed to make us feel very comfortable during the process and the results are beyond our expectations. We are so happy with him and highly recommend Bear Beau Photography!

Luke was fantastic on our wedding day and captured all of our special moments, the beauty of the venue, and showed our personalities! He was so stealthy on the day zipping around to get the perfect shot but not be in the middle of the moment either. Such a nice guy who made us feel so comfortable being in the spotlight. He was so good at capturing the in between moments which was very unique and special. He traveled to California for our wedding. Very professional and personable. Great price and great quality of work. Highly recommend working with Luke :

Hands down, the BEST photographer you could ask for on your big day! Luke captured both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding day, and flew all the way to Santa Barbara from Seattle for us! ((: He is such a warm and calming presence which I really appreciated as a nervous bride, and of course made us look BEAUTIFUL in every single shot. He also captured the candidness of our friends and family gathering for us, and all the emotion of the day, PERFECTLY. Luke is also super responsive, does great prep communicating with you in advance to understand the kinds of shots you're looking for, and quick to get back photos of your big day - we got to enjoy flipping through our sneak peek literally on the plane ride on the way to our honeymoon, which was such a treat! Look no further for the most amazing photographer to capture your special day!

We are so thankful to have had Luke as a part of our wedding team! Easy to work with, great energy, and genuine excitement for us made him a positively memorable vendor. I think his work speaks for itself, all of our photos turned out gorgeous and we loved getting a sneak peak of our pictures right after our wedding as well. We appreciated his willingness to travel to another state for our event and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, fun photographer who can let you relax and enjoy your big day!

Luke is absolutely amazing! He made my husband and I so comfortable in front of the lens and captured the most amazing photos of us! Luke was super interactive, easy to work with and always had a smile on his face. We changed the timeline days before our wedding. He was so flexible and able to work with what we gave him on such short notice. We feel so lucky to have had him apart of our special day and have the most wonderful photos to relive the night. I would 10000% recommend and encourage you to use Luke for your wedding or any special event! He's the absolute best to work with! You will not find better!

He made our whole wedding party feel so comfortable and he was so much fun! We are soooooo glad we went with Bear Beau Photography, we'll be admiring these photos forever.

Working with Luke was a dream! He did both engagement and wedding photos for us and we couldn't have picked anyone better. We fell in love with the natural, relaxed photography and editing style in his portfolio, but sealed the deal once we met him. Luke is so incredible at making you feel at ease. We had so much fun taking photos with Luke, his communication was perfect, and the photos were stunning. Book Luke for your wedding photos-you won't regret it!

Absolutely the best vendor we had. We had to cancel our wedding due to Covid and Luke stood by us for over a year while we re-planned and once the big day came he was incredible. Then once the photos came back they looked amazing! Could not be happier. Would absolutely recommend.
