A Queer Photog

Seattle, WA

I'm Holly Stevens, the queer photographer behind A Queer Photog, a Seattle-based portrait, wedding, and elopement studio working entirely on film. I make heirloom-quality photographs of families, lovers, and friends, and I especially endeavor to document and elevate the lived experience of the queer community, along with other communities that too often face marginalization and erasure. I believe every person should get to feel worthy of being photographed, exactly as they are. I picked up a camera as a pre-teen, and after my first official portrait shoot at fifteen I was hooked on the thrill of photographing people and helping them feel truly seen. That feeling still drives the work. Coming from a background of religious trauma and gender conformity, I am deeply committed to a lifelong healing process, and I bring that same care to the way I hold space for my clients. Sessions with me are unhurried and pressure-free. My imagery is intimate and joyful, exploring anti-perfectionism and radical presence while emphasizing our connection to the land, to each other, and to ourselves. My services include portrait sessions, wedding and elopement coverage, and film photography mentorship for people who want to learn the craft. Whether you are a couple planning an intimate elopement, a growing queer family, or someone who simply wants to be photographed with tenderness and honesty, I would love to make images with you. Accessibility matters to me beyond the frame. I offer payment plans, trades, and solidarity discounts so that cost is less of a barrier for marginalized folks who want to work with me. I want the people I most want to serve to actually be able to reach me. I live and work in Seattle on the unceded traditional lands of the Duwamish people, and I pay monthly reparations through Real Rent Duwamish as one small ongoing act of accountability. As a queer parent, an interdisciplinary artist, and a deeply inquisitive person, I bring my whole self to every shoot, and I invite you to bring yours. If you are looking for a photographer who will treat your story with reverence and never ask you to be anyone but yourself, reach out through my site and let's create something lasting together.

Marketing & Creative in Seattle: questions people ask

How many creative studios and freelancers are listed across the Seattle metro?

Six right now, in Seattle and Everett. The list grows as businesses are recommended, checked and added.

What makes a business inclusive on Inclusivity.org?

Every listing shows why it is here, with a source you can check: the owner's own statement, a public listing such as a chamber directory, or a recognized certification. Some are owned by the communities they serve and some are allies who welcome everyone. We never list someone's identity without a source.

How do I choose a designer, photographer or agency?

Look at recent work like yours, ask who will actually do the work, and agree on the number of rounds of changes before you start. A clear written scope prevents most problems.

Do they work with clients outside the metro?

Most creative studios work remotely with clients anywhere. The city on a listing is where they are based, not the limit of who they serve.

Is it free to be listed?

Yes. A basic listing is free, and owners can claim and update theirs at any time. Featured and Enhanced listings get more room on the page, and being listed never depends on them.

How do I suggest a creative studio that is missing?

Use Recommend a business at the bottom of this page. We research every suggestion, and nothing goes live until it has been checked.

Know a creative studio we're missing?

Tell us who they are and we'll do the research. Nothing goes live until we've checked it, and we never list someone's identity without a source.
