Jess and Sayer got married back in December, but they held a reception for their friends and family over the Labor Day weekend at a beautiful rental house on Lake Goodwin in Stanwood. They are both in the military, and Jess coordinated much of the event over emails and phone from Afganistan! I was so…
Kate and Garrett got married a couple weeks ago. The skies were smokey, and we were just coming down off the heat wave that swept the puget sound area. That didn’t put any dampers on their celebration, though. Their processional included a real ball and chain gag, the groom and groomsmen all wore crazy socks,…
Kara is a high school senior this year – Getchell High School Class of 2018. I was excited for her session because I’ve worked with her mom before, and I knew how much fun they were to be around. We decided to hit up the Everett Legion Park Arboretum, because it’s so pretty this time…
Smoke is an interesting thing. If you live in the general Puget Sound area, you know that for the last week and a half, we were socked in by the wildfire smoke coming down from Vancouver B.C. The air has finally cleared up for the most part, which is lovely. However, during the midst of…
Darla and I have been friends for over a decade now. I took photos at her bridal shower, and played the role of the dreaded Uncle Bob at her wedding (yes, I admit it). When she got pregnant with her first little girl, we did maternity photos and later family photos. Throughout her journey into…
Caroline and Walt got married in January on a cruise ship. The pair loves to travel, and it was a fitting location for them to share their special day together.

Maggie and Jason are getting married this summer out of Woodland Meadow Farms. When we met, I instantly knew that they were going to be a fun couple to work with, and turns out my gut was right! Maggie suggested we hit up the Bob Heirman Wildlife Preserve in Snohomish for their engagement session. With…
Taffy and Jim got hitched at Red Barn Farm in Redmond. They even had a hitching post made up just for the occasion. It was a super hot day, but that didn’t stop everyone from donning their boots and dancing after the ceremony. Taffy and Jim have been taking country dance lessons for a while…
I met Jenn and Chad back in 2015 as they were starting to plan their wedding. We had a totally fun engagement session on the campus of UW, and you could just see how much they were in love. To top it off, they wanted to use their engagement photos to make a special announcement…
Lindsey and Nathan met through a mutual friend at a party (who this weekend got to serve as maid of honor at their wedding). Despite living a few states apart, they knew that there was something there. They bounced back and forth between visits in Colorado and Washington before Nathan finally decided to move for…
