Zinchuk Studios is a husband and wife team based in the Pacific Northwest. We specialize in wedding cinematography and photography, working in the Seattle area and beyond!
memory.color.sound.quality. . . these are our values, our ideals when it comes to capturing your special day.
Alexander, our cinematographer, comes to Seattle by way of Ukraine. A musician by training and a police officer in a former life, each film Alex creates is uniquely beautiful. He has been recording memories to film for almost 10 years. He is experienced shooting news, documentary, and wedding video in the US and Europe.
Jennifer is the studio photographer. She is a teacher by profession (teaching English to speakers of other languages in the US and abroad), but has been an artist for life. Beginning with drawing and painting, Jennifer has been capturing images forever!
This blog chronicles our adventures as a photography + cinematography team--enjoy the ride!! We love feedback, so leave a comment on the blog or email us at alexander [at] zinchukvideo.com !
You’ve already seen their Love Story, now here are all their photos! We had so much fun with different locations and outfits. I love the glamorous look of their formal session at Golden Gardens/downtown Bellevue. Later we met for some casual fun slacklining (a.k.a. tightrope walking) and hanging out at Kerry Park. A fun weekend with a great couple!!

We have been so lucky to have such warm weather so early in Seattle. That means we’ve begun our spring engagement shoots early!
A few weeks ago we had the opportunity to shoot Chris & Jodie’s love story. We were recommended to them by friends, and as fellow Montanans (from Helena), Jodie and I found we have a ton in common. Chris is the perfect partner for Jodie–together they are so silly and fun. We had the best time with them–walking the beach in formal wear, hitting up Bellevue at sunset, and slack-lining (the real name for their tightrope-walking antics). Their story is as unique as they are–enjoy!
I’m just about done editing the last of the hundreds of photos we took, so check back soon for those

What an amazing weekend in Seattle! I can’t believe it’s only the end of February and the cherry trees are beginning to bloom, daffodils are out, the skies are COMPLETELY blue, and it’s 60 degrees. A small part of me worries about what’s to come, but mostly, I’ve just been enjoying it!
Luckily for Alex and Angela, the weather was amazing this weekend and we were able to really get Seattle at its best. We had a quick engagement session at Alkai beach and it was a blast!
A few more to come as I keep editing, so check back soon!
I love packages! When I went away to college, packages always reminded me that my mommy was thinking of me. When I studied abroad in Europe, packages provided me with American food (reese’s peanut butter cups) and working deodorant. And when I was in the Peace Corps, packages brought me books and films in English and a reminder of a world outside Ukraine.
Now I wait in expectation of packages from Europe, providing amazing quality printing and binding in Italy. Although albums can often take up to 6 weeks to create, the first album we got came as a surprise. I came home one day to a UPS message on the door. They had tried to deliver a package and yet I wasn’t expecting anything. I did a little investigating and my package was from Italy! And weeks earlier than I expected. I love the great service GraphiStudio provides!
I always love getting something in the mail, so I was thrilled when Toly & Zhanna’s fabulous album arrived. Sure, it’s not my wedding but it is still like Christmas to get such a beautiful package in the mail! I carefully opened it to take a few photos and show you all before I send it to the happy couple.
This is our standard 9.5×13″ flush-mount album with Crystal glance cover and leather binding. It is sturdy and elegant. I can’t wait to get it boxed up again and sent off to the lucky couple!
And here are a few design examples from my favorite spreads:

You might remember Vitaliy and Julia from their June 2009 wedding. Or maybe from their awesome photo/video session a few weeks later. Since the weather here is rainy and spirits a little gloomy, we thought we’d post their video from that gorgeous summer day as a reminder of how love–and a little sunshine–can brighten anyone’s day!
- Congrats julie&vitaliy And Great job Alex&jen with the video!!!February 17, 2010 - 3:30 pm
