I’m originally from the UK where first looks aren’t really a thing at all, so when I moved here and people kept asking me if they should do one for their wedding, I had no idea. Thankfully I now know better.
Richmond Beach Saltwater Park Engagement Session // Dani and Michelle
Salish Lodge Wedding // Jordan and Eric
Jordan and Eric came all the way from Texas to marry in our beautiful corner of the world. They chose Salish Lodge as the venue for their ceremony and reception. Beforehand I met Jordan and Eric at their hotel to get some getting ready photos before heading to the hotel for their beautiful ceremony. At a spot right next to the gorgeous Snoqualmie Falls Jordan and Eric said their I Do’s in front of their closest family.
Northacres Family Session // The Sliva's
When I first moved to Seattle almost four years ago, Hitomi and her family were one of my first clients. When we did that shoot Paul was but a little toddler, now he’s off to school! That’s not all that’s changed, he now has an adorable little sister. Like all older siblings, Paul’s happiness at having a younger sibling ebbs and flows but thankfully on this day he was happy to have someone to play in the leaves with on a beautiful crisp fall day.
2018 in Recap // Weddings
Franklin Falls Engagement Session // Carly & Ana
Lummi Island Wedding // Ally & Talyn
Seattle Aquarium Wedding // Pepper & Keith
Discovery Park Engagement Shoot // Evan & Kelsey
Discovery Park is one of the most popular parks in Seattle for photography, that's why I have always avoided it. Tales of cars being towed, broken into, no spaces, made it all very confusing on the best way to enjoy this park. Thankfully Evan & Kelsey knew the deets and we parked at the South Lot and went EARLY.
Seattle Park Engagement // Sal & Reyna
Boho Styled Shoot at Rosario Beach // Seattle Wedding Photography
Downtown Seattle Wedding // Patrick & Marc
For those not in the know, Columbia Tower is Seattle's tallest building. 75 stories tall it towers over the surrounding buildings and offers a 360 degree view of Seattle from an unparalleled viewpoint. The top two floors are reserved for the Columbia Tower club which Patrick & Marc used as the venue for their beautiful day.
Pride Cake Smash!
With all the ugliness surrounding the Supreme Court's decision in the cake baker case I decided I wanted to do something positive to counter it. So I cooked up a plan with some friends and enlisted the magic baking hands of South Fork Cake Co who made the most amazing cake I think I've ever seen. My good friends Alex & Chad then proceeded to smash it into each others faces in the most adorable way.
Ballard Locks Engagement // Alicia & Taliesyn
My afternoon with Alicia and Taliesyn started at the Ballard Farmers Market, just north of Seattle itself. I've never been before and so while waiting for A&T to arrive (because Seattle traffic) I wandered around and took in all the sights, sounds and smells that it had to offer. I will definitely be going back to sample ALL THE FOOD.
