More than just pictures, we craft timeless memories.
Lumiere Lens Studio began as a humble dream in the heart of Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood in 2010. Anya Petrova, a passionate photographer with an unwavering vision, sought to create a space where artistry and technical excellence converged to capture life's most treasured moments. From a small, cozy studio, Lumiere Lens quickly blossomed into a sought-after destination for discerning clients seeking unparalleled photographic services.
The studio’s early years were defined by a dedication to portrait photography, capturing the essence of individuals and families against the backdrop of Seattle’s stunning landscapes. Word-of-mouth spread quickly, and soon Lumiere Lens was expanding its services to include wedding photography, a natural extension of Anya’s talent for capturing emotion and storytelling. Each wedding became a unique narrative, meticulously crafted through the lens, preserving the memories of that special day for generations to come.
As Lumiere Lens's reputation grew, so did the demand for commercial photography. Businesses in Seattle, recognizing the studio’s commitment to quality and visual appeal, sought out Lumiere Lens to elevate their brands. From stunning product photography to captivating architectural images, the studio demonstrated its versatility and ability to translate complex ideas into visually compelling stories. In 2018, Lumiere Lens moved to a larger, state-of-the-art studio in the Ballard neighborhood, a testament to its continued growth and success. The new space allowed for expanded services, including in-house printing and framing, further enhancing the client experience.
