Having 20 years of combined experience and over 800 photographed weddings, photographers Loren Callahan and Kimberly Person depend on their ability to communicate thoughtfully and clearly with and for their clients to produce the most beautiful and articulate photographs. Story-telling ability, creative awareness, and constant pursuit of innovation allow Loren and Kimberly to capture and create scenes and situations with accuracy and personal style.
Loren has background studies in fashion photography, spending six years in New York City shooting editorial fashion along side photo-journalism for agencies like Associated Press, Reuters News Service, and Getty Images. Loren's photographs have been published in major news magazines and news agencies including The New York Times, Time Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Newsweek, and People magazine. Loren has won numerous awards from the National Professional Photographers Association and in 2004 was invited to have his photographs be part of the National Native American Museum, Smithsonian in Washington D.C.
Kimberly has 9 years experience photographing high end events and weddings, with an eye for amazing editorial glamour. She makes you look better than you ever thought. Kimberly's editorial eye is ever expanding to other passions in photography and is capturing elegant movements for local ballet companies. She also creates amazing boudoir images for clients of even the most modest sensibility.
A word about styled shoots, models, Photoshop, retouching, and enhancement. We believe that a photo should be constructed within the camera first. The genuine moment is paramount to Loren and Kimberly. Photoshop is used to remove exit signs, fire escapes, and uncontrollable distractions but the core image is captured in the most beautiful way possible through posing, lighting, and technical skill. Additionally, all images found on the Alante portfolio are real clients. No styled shoots with endless time to create and no models with posing prowess - real images and real moments captured at real events.

Loren and Kimberly look forward to meeting and speaking with you to create and capture your event or session with amazing style and artistic sense.
At Alante Photography, clients become friends, and nothing more aptly demonstrates this than the invitation to meet with, plan, and view your finished photographs with Loren and Kimberly in the privacy of their West Seattle studio. Settle in with a glass of wine, relax, and view your images presented in slide-show format in their viewing studio in the company of any friends or family members you choose to invite along. We look forward to welcoming you.
