Seattle + Snohomish Family

Photography Coverage

For the families who love a story-telling approach



Let's adventure together


For the more adventurous of hearts I offer Family Adventure Shoots. These sessions take place typically up in the mountains, a meadow or a seasonal berry picking adventure at a dreamy location. Together we plan your adventure, down to what you’ll wear.

These sessions are more documentary style...capturing little moments and the B-roll tiny details.

But what do we wear? This is the most common question I get asked. Let's start with mom's outfit and we will build from there.

Think earth tones or some of your favorite colors around the house.

I tell my clients to stick to 3-4 colors and include accessories such as watches, scarves, a sunhat or a stuffed bear that your child can't go anywhere without.

The Storyteller


Time flies by in the blink of an eye. There are so many reasons why pictures get put on hold year after year. Busy schedules. You want to lose some weight first. Summer plans and before you know it, the kids have grown so much. It's so important to have images of your family to look back on and share.

For family sessions I suggest you choose a location you love. A place that represents you or perhaps has a special meaning to it. And if you need help, I have lots of beautiful locations to freeze this moment of time. I strive to get both gently posed and candid shots throughout the session.  I'm a huge lover of movement so we don't end up feeling awkward. I'm here to capture your legacy year after year.

Testimonials
Bride and groom sharing first kiss | wedding photography

Cassandra has a calming presence that was invaluable on our big day. She was collected, patient, and handled the natural wedding-day chaos with grace. She gently guided us when we needed it, found quiet pockets of peace for my (new) husband and me, and managed to organize family and group shots efficiently — all while making it feel effortless.

Shooting with Cassi felt like slipping into golden hour itself — warm, unhurried, and full of ease. She has this gift for letting you move naturally while quietly noticing the light, the colors, the way a moment breathes. Thoughtful touches, like bringing a bubble machine for the tub scene, made the shoot playful and unforgettable. Her style feels both romantic and alive — every frame she captures has a softness, yet tells a story. I left feeling inspired, and the results are pure magic.

I had the pleasure of working with Cassi from C. Marilyn Photography during her Bridal in Blooms styled shoot, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Her creative vision, attention to detail, and warm professionalism made the entire day feel seamless and inspiring. As a fellow photographer based in Washington State, I really appreciated how she fostered a collaborative environment and allowed space for each vendor and creative to shine.

Cassi has a natural ability to make anyone she meets feel comfortable and confident. This translates so well to the images she captures. She is a natural in her field. We were honored to have her take our engagement photos and highly recommend her to anyone trying to capture special moments.
