Highlights of Seattle's Waterfront, Pike Place Market, Pioneer Square and Sail Away by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio

September 1, 2026

When you live near Seattle, Bremerton actually, the challenge I give myself is how do I capture new imagery, learn more, challenge myself and get great imagery that I’m proud of. On this recent trip, I used two cameras; one with a 28m lens and the other a 100m lens. I didn’t want to be weighted down, yet I want to take photos from a distance, wide angle, and close up using my harness. Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio.

Oh Those Summer Days! Yes too Girlfriends, Roses, Cocktails and the Smith Tower -- All Fabulous!! Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio

July 24, 2025

What can happen when five girlfriend’s get together on a sunny summer day in July in Seattle…a lot! They enjoyed two Uber car rides, and both just a little bit of a tight squeeze, as they ripped through the city towards acres of roses. The Woodland Park Rose Garden plants 200 varieties of roses and other flora — all blooming bright and beautiful. It was a zen afternoon for the ladies to enjoy nature and each others company. After the park visit, a lite lunch with shaken and stirred cocktails was sipped at Seattle’s historic Smith Tower observatory building, circa 1914. Also, the gals took in the sweeping views of the city and surrounding land from the observation deck; Elliott Bay on display as well as the majestic Mount Rainier. All and all a grand day was enjoyed by all in the Emerald City of Seattle. Let’s plan another getaway soon! Photos by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio, Bremerton, Washington.

Seattle Architecture Old and New and the Pike Place Market!

July 28, 2024

When you’re walking around a city do you look up at the architecture? In Seattle, you can find Art Deco, Second Renaissance Revival, Gothic, sculptures, modern tall skyscraper buildings and more, plus the iconic Pike Place Market built in 1907 and is still a popular locals and tourist attraction today!
