About
We're Jeff and CeCe...
Hello, and Welcome!
We're the Washingon-based husband and wife team who owns CeCe Kermie Photography and CeCe Kermie Studios and Events and there's only two other things we're as passionate about as much as our family, careers, and life-long learning pursuits.
-- Documenting those special moments and important milestones in people's lives; and
-- Helping others successfully navigate the technical (and often times daunting) side of running a business
Well ... if you ask Jeff, he'll say taking pictures is CeCe's thing, but the reality is it takes teamwork to make the dream work! So whether you're a client in need of a photographer or a small business in need of assistance, they’re the team to help you achieve your dream!
We want to ensure people just like us document those meaningful moments and get the business support they need without breaking the bank.
From day one, the CeCe Kermie Team's commitment has been and will always be to diligently balance the costs of running a successful business with providing high quality products and services for others just like them who are working hard everyday to earn enough to cover their living/business expenses and enjoy making memories with their loved ones.
We value humans and animals more than we value profits.
The CeCe Kermie Team is committed to loving and serving their clients regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin; sex, pregnancy or marital status; age; disability; religion; sexual preference; or some other characteristic that relates back to the definitions of “anti-discrimination,” “human rights,” and "animal rights." They also expect the same of their clients, so if you’re down with the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion and respect for all human and animal kind, then they're excited to connect and build a relationship with you.
