Your Bremerton Wedding & Portrait Photographer
our moments deserve to feel big. Alive. Unforgettable.
You deserve to laugh hard. Hold tight. Dance like your favorite song just came on.
To stand on a mountaintop and feel the wind hit your face…
or sit on the floor with your kids, wrapped up in the chaos you never want to forget.
This isn’t about posing perfectly.
It’s about being fully in it.
That’s where I come in.
With calm leadership and intentional direction, you don’t have to wonder what to do or worry about what’s being missed.
I guide you through it so you can stay present, feel confident, and actually enjoy the moment as it’s happening.
No stress. No awkwardness. No second guessing.
Just real connection. Real memories. Real moments you’ll come back to for the rest of your life.
Based in the Pacific Northwest and trusted at venues and state parks across Washington, your experience is handled with preparation, care, and deep respect for the places and people that matter most to you.
This is your story.
Let’s make it legendary.
hen you look back at your photos, you shouldn’t just see how it looked
you should feel exactly what it was like to be there.
That only happens when every moment is handled with care, awareness, and experience.
With over 15 years behind the lens, you get someone who’s fully present
who knows when to step in and guide,
and when to step back and let it unfold.
So everything feels natural.
Everything feels true.
Just real moments captured as they happen, and preserved in a way that actually reflects you.
You get to be fully in it.
You get to enjoy your people.
You get to trust it’s all being captured the way it deserves to be.
And years from now, when you come back to these images
it still feels just as real.

Benjamin was very patient and kind let us come up with some picture ideas. Husband and I are very happy with our pictures. I will definitely recommend his photos to others. Thank you again Ben 🙂

We’ve used Nautical Moments Photography for three different events in our lives. Wedding, maternity, and newborn photos. Photographer Ben Collier has a great eye and captures way more than one perfect picture. Our family will be using this photographer for many years to come. Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed our family photos with Nautical Moments. I was worried about the location I chose not having enough different places to full an hour but Ben was able to add a few extra spots and even got some candid unexpected shots. My baby may be photogenic, but my husband and I are a bit awkward. Ben kept everything light and it helped a lot. We started just needing some pictures for cards but I'm glad we went with the full photo shoot.

I had the pleasure of working with Ben Collier at a recent wedding, and I am truly impressed by his professionalism and artistry. From the moment he arrived, it was clear that Ben Collier is passionate about his work and dedicated to capturing every precious moment of the day.
Their unobtrusive manner allowed the ceremony to flow seamlessly, while still capturing all the important moments. The way he managed to be everywhere at once without being noticed was remarkable. Their attention to detail and his ability to anticipate and snap the perfect shot was evident in the final photographs.
Not only did Ben Collier from Nautical Moments Photography excel in his photographic skills, but his warm and friendly demeanor put everyone at ease. He was able to connect with the couple and the guests, creating a comfortable atmosphere that was conducive to capturing genuine, candid moments.
The final photographs were nothing short of stunning. Each image told a story and beautifully encapsulated the emotions and joy of the day. The quality of his work is outstanding, with each photo being a perfect blend of creativity and technical expertise.
I highly recommendNautical Moments to anyone in need of a wedding photographer. His talent, professionalism, and passion for his craft makes him an invaluable asset to any wedding. I look forward to the opportunity to work with him again in the future.
Sincerely,
Sally Dolton
