seattle engagement photographer | adam & thera

It's only fitting that Adam and Thera had their engagement photos taken at Greenlake, a lovely little haven in the big city of Seattle. Adam proposed there only months before, and they live minutes away! This perfect little urban lake is a must for all runners, walkers, cyclists, dog-walkers, socializers, thinkers, and coffee shop enthusiasts. We hit it on just the perfect evening when it had been raining hard all morning (big surprise?) and had a beautiful session. I love the soft light of the storm clouds and the evening sunlight coming in! We headed over to Gasworks Park after roaming around Greenlake just for a few of those good-ole-Seattle skyline shots. Love this beautiful session, and congrats on your engagement, Thera and Adam!!

seattle wedding photographer | niki & derek

I loved this wedding. Niki and Derek, two college friends of mine, decided to get married at Kiana Lodge on the beautiful Bainbridge Island in Puget Sound. I loved all of the details of this wedding, from the dried-flower boutonnieres made by Niki's sister to the Pike Place Market bouquets and also a twenty pound loaf of challah bread from Bubby's Bread in Seattle. They ended their special day on the Spirit of 76, a three hour boat cruise filled with music and dancing that took us all the way back to Seattle. My second shooter David Duffy was on assignment with me for this wedding and I love seeing the different angles that we are able to get working together. What a beautiful evening, and congratulations to this happy couple!
