mark + brianne

On a rare and beautiful sunny February day, Mark & Brianne got married.

They are so in love.

And they make me fall more in love with what I do.

Mark & Brianne were married at Bethany Community Church in Greenlake and their reception was at Georgetown Studios.  It was a bit of a reunion for me because Mark’s older sister was one of my best friends growing up, so I loved getting to see his parents & family again.  Somewhere in his parent’s attic is video of my very first days playing basketball.  I hope no one ever finds them…

Their ceremony & reception were as relaxed & elegant as they are, and the day flew by before I even knew it.  This wedding had all of the elements of the perfect wedding…beautiful lighting, a relaxed atmosphere, a fun photo booth, sushi, homemade pies, and cherished family.  I loved how Mark & Brianne honored their family.  Brianne’s beautiful bouquet had mini photos of both their granddads & a small map of Haiti, where Brianne has spent some time living & working and is so dear to her heart.  Mark had his grandpa’s cufflinks on and his first dance with his mom was to “You are My Sunshine.”  Featuring his sweet dad on the harmonica.  I don’t think there was a single dry eye among the moms there…myself included.

Thank you so much for having me, Mark & Brianne!  I had so much fun at your wedding and enjoyed every moment.  Hopefully these photos will take the edge off of returning to real life now that you are home from Bali!

warm fuzzies.

I don’t mean to gush.  But I do.

I really get warm fuzzies working on these photos for several reasons…I photographed this couple almost two years ago and I was blessed to have the opportunity to photograph them again as new parents!  Double warm fuzzies with returning clients…it is so fun to watch young families grow.  It reminds me of when Mark & I were newlyweds & young parents.  It is such a precious time in life that goes faster than imaginable.

And Lexi is perfection!  She was so sweet & friendly.  Bryan & Allyson, you are amazing parents, I am so proud of you and your adorable little family!  Thank you so much for having me, it is always fun photographing you (& third time’s a charm, right?)

Here was one of their wedding photos I took, ah the memories :)

and now, Bryan, Allyson plus beautiful Alexis….

a sunny Seattle day…

Who would have known that Seattle would allow the sun to shine on a Saturday in February?  It was just our luck!  I am photographing Megan & David’s wedding this May and her mom was wanting some family photos done.  We lucked out, they brought cookies, and we had a great time.  So we’ve already had our trial run…you passed in my books, climbing walls & enduring duck boat tours shouting at us.  Thanks for having me & for the beautiful daffodils & yummy cookies…looking forward to celebrating with you in May!

Meet David & Megan…
