Gina and Ben had a King County Courthouse wedding. I have photographed Seattle Courthouse weddings many times, but this was my first go at the King County Courthouse.

I met Gina a Ben at the Alexis Hotel downtown. I like this image of the Alexis and the Storyville Coffee with the sun flare.

The Pergola in Pioneer Square is a beautiful place for wedding photographs.

Ben was laughing during this one. I loved the image with his eyes closed.

I, like most photographers, love to add colors and textures to the background of images. That is part of the reason that I love old brick walls. They add colors and textures that new brick or smooth, modern walls to do not have.

This wedding photograph was taken in Occidental Park.

Here I was playing with a flash to show off the beautiful blue sky that popped out.

I really like this image. It has good content with Gina's expression as well as the dark vertical lines from shooting through a railing and diagonal lines from the stairs and railing.

Gina and Ben forgot they needed cash to pay the judge. Now their family can all say that they contributed to get them married!

I love the way Gina is looking at Ben in this image. It would also be great cropped to a vertical of just the two of them.
