Parker and Kevin's wedding was a celebration like no other—a vibrant fall carnival-themed event that perfectly captured their playful spirits and love for adventure. Held at the charming Gala Events in Monroe, Washington, their special day was a delightful blend of romance, fun, and creativity.
Peter and Felix brought one hundred percent of their authentic selves to their wedding at Ray’s Boathouse and their friends and family LOVED it.
If there is one word I could come up with to summarize Akela and Billie’s late summer wedding at Falling Water Gardens, it would be joyful. The whole day these two beauties were smiling and giggling and screaming with laughter. They were giddy in love like it was a potion.
Nick and Franklin’s late summer wedding at Trinity Tree Farms near Seattle was nothing short of fae wonderland dreams.
In the weeks leading up to Wyatt and Miranda’s engagement session I was working myself up into an anxious mess about driving over the pass in late December. Every day I was obsessively watching the weather and the traffic cameras, predicting that the day we were due to do the sesison there would be a freak snow storm that only struck when I was crossing the pass. I actually eneded up borrowing a friends 4x4 just to make sure I was fully prepared. All of which came to nothing because the day I drove over the pass it was gorgeous clear blue skies and though there was snow on the ground there were two “ruts” that were clear to the ground. Basically it was absolutely no bother at all!
When I met Lina and Jerrick at Deception Pass State for their engagement session, Washington had been experiencing a string of eighty degree days. But the day I met them it was cooler and overcast and I was worried we weren’t going to get good weather. Thankfully my fears were for nothing as Mother Nature pulled it out at the last minute for a beautiful sunset for them.
When I asked Marjorie where she and David would like to do their engagement session, she said she wanted something in nature. I showed her the engagement session styled shoot I had just attended at PhotoLush a couple weeks prior and she was in. Even after telling her it was a two hour drive north and the best time of day was sunrise, they were still in.
The second part to the “Frame your couples with nature” breakout at PhotoLush 2019 was hosted by Celina Meza Photography. Last year she gave a talk about engagement sessions and working with couples so I was really excited to see her in action this year and she didn’t disappoint! Her couple Matt & Mae were adorable and so comfortable in front of the camera.
This past weekend I attended PhotoLush for the third time and it was the best time yet! Not only did I get to present and lead a breakout (more on that in a coming post) but I also got to attend a breakout hosted by the wonderful Afton Lewis and Celina Meza. They hosted a joint breakout on using nature to frame your couples, at the beautiful and #SOPNW Rosario Beach, just by Deception Pass.
