Nikole and Brandon Engaged! {Seattle Wedding Photography}

Nikole and Brandon knew exactly where they wanted to do their engagement session. Volunteer Park in Seattle. Why? Well that is where Brandon proposed to Nikole. In fact we took a few photos with them sitting on the very bench it happened. They even wore what they wore that night. Cuteness! Not before Brandon wore his Army uniform. Brandon is just now finishing serving in the Army and Nikole wanted to see him in the uniform one last time. Put all of this together with a beautifully sunny October evening and we have a beautiful engagement session!

Agi + Matt {Seattle Wedding Photography}

Agi and Matt got married in the remote town of La Push (Yes, that is from Twilight). A simply beautiful beach ceremony followed by a pig roast dinner under a tent all with their close friends and family. The beautiful weather that weekend allowed for some playing around on the beach at sunset. This of course included viking helmets, bunny hats, and umbrellas. My favorite part of the evening was Agi and Matt's first dance to "Home is Whenever I'm with You" by Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros. They have so much fun being in love!

Brittny + Doug {Tacoma Wedding Photography}

Brittny and Doug got married at Thornewood Castle. Gorgeous. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

Michael {Issaquah Senior Photography}

Michael is very much into cars and everything that has to do with cars so he requested we do his photos at the old Shell station in downtown Issaquah. I have to admit that ever since we moved here I wanted to do a shoot at that Shell station. It was so much fun! The colors just pop! After having fun at the Shell station we went to Costco Campus Park which is a place I had never heard of! It is tucked in between Barnes and Noble and Red Robin. Costco's headquarters is in there and surrounded by this beautiful park. So glad Michael's mom suggested it.

Gina + Peter {Petaluma Wedding Photography}

Disclaimer: I was not the photographer at this wedding. Gina and Peter are wonderful friends of mine. I traveled to California to be at their wedding and enjoyed every minute of it as a guest. (You might remember them from the engagement photos I took of them a few months ago) But, alas, I can't go without taking photos! Believe me when I say this is me controlling myself!

Gina and Peter got married at Tara Firma Farms in Petaluma, CA. Basically the most amazing farm wedding. Ever.

Courtney + Rick Engagement [Novato Portrait Photography}

I graduated high school with Courtney and I am so happy to say we are still great friends nearly 10 years later. I also love saying that every one of my dear high school friends has picked amazing men and Rick is definitely included in this. His laughter is contagious. I love when a couples love just oozes from my photographs. Makes my job easy! We did this shoot in about 30 minutes right before the sun went down because everything about that day did not go as planned for Courtney and Rick. The weather was also not cooperating. I think we were at then end of about a 10 day stretch of sunny 90 degree weather but that evening the fog and wind decided to join us. We did the shoot in our hometown, Novato, CA, which makes this shoot even more dear to me. Enough rambling! Enjoy the beautiful Courtney and Rick!
