The WLKE in WLKE Photography is our initials put together, WL is William Labadie and KE is Kaitlynn Eucker. We specialize in natural light portrait photography and lifestyle photography. Both of us carry full-time jobs, so we fit clients in either after work or on the weekends. We established in 2022 by capturing our friends getting engaged. From there we were asked to photograph a couple of our friends’ weddings then decided to take it a step further. We love photography and creating memories for people to look back on. They say a photo is worth a thousand words, so let us write your story.
Lead Photographer
My name is William Labadie, I’m 29 years old, and I love photography in every aspect. I originally got into photography when I was the only one in my family that could capture my Dad smiling and with his eyes open. Fast forward to when I got my first camera at 17 years old as a graduation gift from my Aunt. That’s when I started to experiment with as many disciplines in photography as possible. My journey with photography was briefly interrupted when I joined the military in 2014 and I was able to pick the camera back up in 2022. I have been practicing this amazing art for a little over 2 years and love gifting photography to others, so I decided to spread my passion to the local area. My work ethic and the way I approach every client is professional and meaningful and I look forward to capturing every special moment that I am presented.
Second Shooter / Coordinator
My name is Kaitlynn Eucker and I am 30 years old. I grew up in a small farm town in Washington state where photos consisted of everyone squishing together on the couch and forcing a smile. I love capturing the real and genuine moments of people gathering for any occasion. When I moved to Western Washington for physical therapy I was mesmerized by the mountains and wanted to capture those moments where I had felt completely serene. Candid portraits and natural light photography are my passions and I can’t wait to capture your life’s special moments as well.
