I met Jessica and Phi at the Seattle Municipal Court for their wedding. They are a great couple and it was a beautiful day! The Seattle Municipal Court has a beautiful rooftop deck for both the portraits and the ceremony. After their ceremony, we walked around downtown Seattle including the library for some more portraits.
Read MoreHayley and Adam were married on a perfectly Seattle rainy day in the spring. They and all of their friends got ready in a space above their wedding venue, Mad Art Studio.
Mad Art Studio is located in the South Lake Union neighborhood just a few blocks from the MOHAI and the Center for Wooden Boats. We went down to Kobe Terrace Park in the International District for their first look and some portraits. Kobe Terrace is filled with cherry trees and was absolutely beautiful for their first look with all of the blossoms.
Then, we went to Kerry Park to get views of the Space Needle and Seattle for more portraits and their wedding party images. After that, we went back to Mad Art Studio for the wedding and reception. Very cool couple and a fun day!
Read MoreJasmine and Mitch are an incredibly enjoyable and affectionate pair. Capturing their photographs was a pleasure. Their wedding ceremony took place at the stunning Imperia Lake Union in Seattle.
Read MoreI met Beka and Joe at the Smith Tower in Seattle before their wedding. I love Smith Tower and have used in the background of so many of my wedding and elopement images. For this event, the wedding was inside the tower, which I hadn’t been inside for year. I am very glad that camera gear has improved so much in the time between and now has enough dynamic range to allow there to be detail in both the couple and the much brighter background.

Read MoreKaitlynn and Felicia are a fantastic couple that were a joy to photograph! Their family and friends were a lot of fun to talk to and a bit of a walk down memory lane for me because I went to school with some of them. Dockside at Dukes is a newer wedding venue that sits right on the southern shore of Lake Union. It has a great outdoor space for the ceremony even though it was a little smoky. What a wonderful wedding!
Read MoreShannon and Jeremy are a great couple and they made photographing their wedding day a joy! After some getting-ready images of Shannon and her crew, we went to the Washington Park Arboretum for the couple, family, and bridal party portraits. I love the Arboretum and all of the different places to photograph even if the fall leaves are a little delayed this year. Then, we went to the Imperia Lake Union for the wedding and reception. The Imperia Lake Union has a fantastic ceremony room and dancefloor area that makes for some super cool images. Also, I love night shots with their sign!
Read MoreKristen and Will were a lot of fun to photograph! During the wedding ceremony, there was a story told of how Will showed Kristen photos of his Marvel cosplay during their first date. Evidence shows that wasn't enough to scare Kristen away! Haha! Congrats to a great couple!
Read MoreMelody and Vinson had a beautiful day in Seattle for their Municipal Court wedding. We started with some portraits on the rooftop deck at the courthouse before their wedding at the same place. Afterward we walked down to the waterfront for some photographs with the great wheel and the city in the background including a few of Vinson break dancing! Very fun.
Read MoreKatie and Connor are a very fun and funny couple. I had a great time at their beautiful wedding on the MV Skansonia. The Skansonia is a stationary ferry boat docked at the north end of Lake Union with some of the best views of Seattle of any venue in the area. It was such a hot day that one of the groomsmen sprayed champagne all over himself. I've rarely seen a wedding party laugh harder. Congratulations!

Read More2020 was a strange year to be a wedding photographer. It started out with all of these plans for a couple of dozen big weddings. Some of those plans changed, others got postponed, and some people went for an elopement. The term for elopement also kind of morphed into "micro wedding" for some people that wanted an awesome event with fewer people.
Read MoreMeeran and Jaewoo are super cool, super nice people. They had big plans for their wedding. What we did was a beautiful micro wedding at Kerry Park with some portraits in Fremont and Ballard before the ceremony. Kerry Park is a fantastic place to get a great view of Seattle. It is totally cool to get married there without a reservation as long as you don’t make people move or set up chairs and equipment. Anyway, congratulations to Meeran and Jaewoo!
