Peter and Felix brought one hundred percent of their authentic selves to their wedding at Ray’s Boathouse and their friends and family LOVED it.
If there is one word I could come up with to summarize Akela and Billie’s late summer wedding at Falling Water Gardens, it would be joyful. The whole day these two beauties were smiling and giggling and screaming with laughter. They were giddy in love like it was a potion.
Nick and Franklin’s late summer wedding at Trinity Tree Farms near Seattle was nothing short of fae wonderland dreams.
In the weeks leading up to Wyatt and Miranda’s engagement session I was working myself up into an anxious mess about driving over the pass in late December. Every day I was obsessively watching the weather and the traffic cameras, predicting that the day we were due to do the sesison there would be a freak snow storm that only struck when I was crossing the pass. I actually eneded up borrowing a friends 4x4 just to make sure I was fully prepared. All of which came to nothing because the day I drove over the pass it was gorgeous clear blue skies and though there was snow on the ground there were two “ruts” that were clear to the ground. Basically it was absolutely no bother at all!
Dani & Michelle were supposed to be married by now but thanks to that thing they chose to reschedule to 2021, and then 2022 so they could have the wedding they wanted to. But since so much time had passed since their first engagement session, they decided to do a second engagement session at Kerry Park so that their final wedding invitations could include their newest family member!
One of the things I wanted to do to honor my pup Kirby who passed away last year was to work with a rescue organisation in his name. To that end I've been working with Forgotten Dogs Rescue for the past six months, attending their adoption events and also doing one on one portrait sessions with some of their pups.
One of the things I said I'd do in my quest to "be the person your dog thinks you are" is to volunteer with a local shelter or rescue. When we were in touch about adopting a dog from them I also asked Forgotten Dogs Rescue if they needed any photography, since I don't have a whole lot of their skills to offer.
For the first time in a good few years, it snowed in Seattle this past week. Enough for it to actually lie on the ground I mean. But of course by the next day it was gone, gone, gone. Which made going up to Vancouver to shoot a family portrait session for Jasmine and her family all the better because they had a TON of snow!
The best part was watching her pups Zephyr and Woody run around in it, poor Woody was barely bigger than the snow was deep so it was a lot of effort for him to charge around and keep up with Zephyr. In between their mad dashes we were able to get some cute images and once everyone confirmed that they couldn't feel their fingers any longer we headed back inside for some hot cocoa.
