jackson hole wedding photographer | rainy day wedding at cm ranch.

Living in Seattle has been great and it's definitely been an adjustment getting back to city life. That being said, I'm loving it! I just moved into a perfect apartment on Queen Anne and am loving the fall weather. It's also great to have lots of amazing restaurants and coffee shops again and of course, shopping. Anyway, I was excited to have the opportunity to travel back to Jackson Hole for two weddings in September. This one took me to a quaint little ranch in Dubois called CM Ranch. Jaydee and Dani currently reside in Seattle and I had already met them before I went to their wedding so it was really fun to see and photograph them in a completely different setting. The ranch itself is gorgeous. It paints a perfect picture of what Wyoming is really like. Their ceremony was set in front of this vast open valley with red hillsides and sagebrush. There are little cabins all over the property that the wedding party and family got to stay at. Jaydee and Dani are also awesome, adventurous, fun-loving people making my job that much easier. The weather kind of drizzled on us all day but I really think the dark clouds added to the mood of the photos. So here you have it - some of my favorite photos from this beautiful wedding at CM Ranch.

seattle wedding photographer | ravishing radish tasting open house.

I had the privilege of being the featured photographer at Ravishing Radish Catering's tasting event at the Yacht Club on Lake Union last Wednesday. It was such a great way to meet future brides and also try some amazing food! Despite it being 90 degrees, there was a great turnout for this fall-themed event. Seriously though, if you are looking for a caterer, check them out! Also featured at the event were other sustainable businesses including Bamboo Beats DJ, Paper Fling and BAKED. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the event.

seattle engagement photographer | jaydee & dani.

A lovely summer day in Seattle makes for perfect engagement photos - especially at the Washington Arboretum, or should I say, an oasis in this metropolitan city. Tucked on the edge of Lake Washington, drenched with tall trees and gorgeous afternoon sunlight, I can't think of a better place to shoot. Jaydee and Dani are actually getting married in a few weeks at CM Ranch in Dubois, Wyoming. Coincidentally, they live near Seattle and I just moved back here so an engagement session was definitely in order for these two! Also, I can't wait to go back to Wyoming for their wedding! As I spent some time with this couple, I could tell that they really were best friends, and I think that can make or break a long-lasting relationship. The way they played with their dogs, smiled at each other, climbed in trees for me (even though Dani was wearing a dress and cowboy boots!), it was obvious that they have a lot of fun together and are truly in love. Not only does that make my job easier, but it certainly makes for a great start to a fabulous marriage. So here are some of my favorites from their session. I hope you enjoy them!
