My latest cute couple met online (it’s becoming a trend on this blog, I tell you!) and managed to fall in love across the pond, with a BIG country (the US), half of a smallish country (the UK) plus the whole entire Atlantic Ocean (aka “the pond”) between them (it’s a pretty large...

love match | seattle & eastside wedding photographer

seattle engagement | seattle, bellevue, tacoma wedding photographer

What I love so much about my bride Wanli is that she is extremely excited about her wedding photos; she loves to peek at all of the other photographers’ blogs, and she has such fun ideas about what she wants. Out of all of the Seattle wedding photographers that she could have chosen from, I...

falling in love in a coffee shop | seattle, bellevue, tacoma wedding photographer

When I first met Jeannie and Steve, they introduced me to the perfect Seattle coffee shop and sat me down to tell me all about this drool-worthy wedding in Port Gamble they were planning this summer. You know those saucy romance novels that you read on summer trips? She, the tall and unfairly-to-the-rest-of-us-model-gorgeous attorney (I...

Every week I drive 30 minutes to Maltby with my girl to visit her new BFF Samurai, whose stable is just across the way from this lovely, perfect field of buttercups and daisies. You may have read that I’m in absolute love with the tall, grassy field of wildflowers. Week after week, the charm of...

jessie & dan’s engagement | alki : seattle, bellevue, tacoma wedding photographer

If you live in the Seattle area, you may be totally over talking about the weather lately. I’ve started to grump at Rich Marriot on almost a daily basis. (Rich, I know it isn’t your fault, but it does get old hearing you repeat the same thing every single day for weeks on end …...

Secret location on Bainbridge Island. Maxx, Lindsay, and their little dog, too. Well, not so much the dog; he wanted to dig for clams and chase seagulls (or something). So excited for their wedding this summer at the beautiful Pickering Barn.

steph & derek : e-session | portland, vancouver, seattle wedding photographer

I have a confession to make. I used to skip school, and often, and I don’t remember ever one time getting in trouble for it, either. My kindergarten best friend, Jenny Knapp, and I used to caper off to the bus stop every afternoon, usually with my collie dog Frisky happily trailing after. In the...

what to wear, what to wear…? | seattle, bellevue, tacoma wedding family engagement photographer

What you wear to your session powerfully impacts the mood of your photos. Dressing up and wearing clothing that is vibrant, fits well and flatters your shape is going to make you feel beautiful, happy, and hopefully even a little bit (or a lot!) flirtatious and that will translate to appealing photos that are full...
