Rachel and Benjamin made capturing their day such a breeze. Both are extremely talented, visually discriminating, and are so friends and family focused. Blend all that together and you get a relaxed vibrant day full of elegant and fun details …
I got to see some familiar faces during Jaimee and Gabe's wedding. I was introduced to the family while shooting his brother's wedding last summer. They are always a great group to be around and they know how to throw a party! Jaimee is a perfect addition. This wonderful couple enjoyed a wine cruise in the Mediterranean for their honeymoon. This trip was a surprise from Gabe's parents, who picked the destination after Gabe proposed to Jaimee at a vineyard.
Britney and Josh shared a beautiful day in Port Townsend. The couple saw each other for the first time on the porch of the officer's quarters in the historic Fort Worden. Their rain-kissed ceremony and reception at Fort Townsend was charming, intimate and fun-filled, complete with quirky photo props and a rendition of the Georgia Satellite's Keep Your Hands to Yourself from the bride's father.
Alyssa and Cameron had a gorgeous ceremony and reception at the scenic Semiahmoo Resort near Blaine, WA.

Courtney and Anthony had a gorgeous ceremony on Crane Island. We got to take a Cessna over for the ceremony and then back to the Bellwether for the reception while the wedding party went in the "party boat". The location and bride were breathtaking and the wedding party was warm and energetic from the preparations all the way to the last dances. It was a wonderful day to be a part of! Thanks to Anna and Leah of Tart Beauty for their artistry! Steven Moore did a wonderful job with decor and Hannah Atkins, the coordinator, was a joy to work with. Whatcom Sound (DJ) and the Viking Star (guest transportation to and from Bellwether) deserve shout outs as well!
Heather and Graham had a true Northwest Destination wedding on Henry Island in the San Juans. The journey included taxis, ferries, barges and a few guests even arrived in their own boats and camped on the island overnight. The ceremony was damp from rain and from tears of happiness and the mist made for some great images.
Kaylee and Zac are a sweet, fun, golf-loving couple. They laughed all day, even on the alter. During the reception at Shuksan Golf Course we took a couple of golf carts out onto the green for some romantic sunset shots.
Erica and Robert held their ceremony at the Alderbrook Spa on the Hood Canal. As one waiter told us, "Don't even try, you'll never run out of things to take pictures of here". The bride was as gorgeous as the location and the weather was fabulous.
Mignonne and John were married in Kelowna, BC. The girls got ready in a beautiful lakeside house and the ceremony was held at the Harvest Golf Club. The sunset was breath-taking and we had a blast taking the couple out in a cart for some solo shots (and luckily avoided the sprinklers).
I had the chance to travel to Akumal, Mexico, to photograph Carrie and Tom's wedding. We even got to explore ruins in their wedding finery the day after the ceremony.
