Margaret and Mark are a wonderful couple that had to postpone their big event until 2021. However, they wanted to get married before that, so they had a small, backyard micro wedding with a few friends this year.
Read MoreMona & Jonathan came from California to get have a micro wedding at the courthouse in Seattle. They live in the bay area and have full-time jobs as well as both working on their Master’s degrees. Seattle courthouse weddings look pretty different at the moment with weddings happening outdoors within walking distance at various courtyards in the area. Mona & Jonathan are very cool people. Congratulations!.
Read MoreMeeran and Jaewoo are super cool, super nice people. They had big plans for their wedding. What we did was a beautiful micro wedding at Kerry Park with some portraits in Fremont and Ballard before the ceremony. Kerry Park is a fantastic place to get a great view of Seattle. It is totally cool to get married there without a reservation as long as you don’t make people move or set up chairs and equipment. Anyway, congratulations to Meeran and Jaewoo!
Read MoreJulia & Blair had big wedding plans. Instead, they ended up with a socially distant micro wedding for them and their family in a backyard on Bainbridge Island. They and their families were great people to spend the afternoon.
Read MoreMatt and Nilou are a cool couple. They were fun to hang out with and take photographs of. They had their micro wedding at the beautiful Woodmark Hotel in Kirkland. The Woodmark has a permanent tent that lets them have great ventilation and space for a wedding during the pandemic while also giving the feel of a more traditional wedding. They also have wonderful grounds and docks at Carillon Point for some great images. After the ceremony, we even got to go for a ride in their boat around Lake Washington. Very cool.
Read MoreI met Alexa and Kevin in West Seattle for some photographs with an awesome view of downtown. They love their dogs, so we included their dogs in a lot of the images as well as going to one of their favorite parks to hang with the pups. As I was talking to them about how they were from the midwest and moved to Seattle for their jobs, I was fully expecting them to be in the tech field like so many in the area are. They are in a way, but they build rockets for Blue Origins. It just sounds cool.
Read MoreAiko and Zack work in tech and make awesome desserts! They had planned a different ceremony, but they ended up having their elopement on a beautiful day at Woodinville Lavender. As you can see in the photographs, they have a lot of fun together. The lavender farm made an amazing place for their wedding photographs!
Read MoreHeather and Kevin had a wonderful, though slightly rainy, wedding day at Willows Lodge in the wine country of Woodinville, Washington. It was my first wedding in the era of the pandemic. It was a very heartfelt event that had far more guests via Zoom than were in physical attendance. I believe there were 12 family members at the wedding. Willows Lodge made it a great day despite the modern challenges. Congratulations to Heather & Kevin!
Read MoreI recently had the opportunity to photograph Lisa and Chris’ elopement. It was the first wedding that I’ve photographed after the lockdown for the coronavirus and Covid-19. It was a joy to be back photographing a wedding! Lisa and Chris are also fantastic people to hang out with, so they made it especially fun for me to be back doing what I love. Lisa and Chris had originally planned on having an elopement at the Seattle Municipal Court with a dozen guests. They ended up getting married in their backyard with one of my favorite officiants, Annemarie Juhlian, performing the ceremony. Before their ceremony, we went to Richmond Beach Saltwater Park for some portraits.
Read MoreMiko and Yang eloped in Seattle at the Seattle Municipal Court. I love shooting courthouse weddings. They are small, quick, and heartfelt. I get to be creative in areas around downtown that are fun to get creative in. And I get to meet extraordinary people like Miko and Yang.
Read MoreRachael & Aaron made their wedding into a two day event with ceremonies at the Edgewater Hotel on the waterfront and the cool, art deco styling of the Lake Union Cafe. Both their ceremonies were beautiful and heartfelt.
Read MoreAudrey and Rich came up from Hollywood to have their wedding in Seattle with their family and friends. It just so happened that the date that worked out was Valentine’s Day! We arranged to take photographs inside the Seattle Public Library before the ceremony, which was on a cold and blustery day. They are a great couple and it was fun to spend their wedding day with them!
Read MoreChristopher and Andrew were married on one of the rainiest days I can remember photographing a wedding. So we used the rain to create some incredibly cool images. I also got to sign their marriage license as a witness, which I always think is kind of cool. Check it out!
Read MoreI met Veena and Kaustubh at Pike Place Market before the ceremony. We walked the 3/4 of a mile to the Seattle Municipal Court with several stops for photographs. They are a great couple that I really enjoyed talking to and photographing!
Read MoreCacia and Nick had a wonderful ceremony at the Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church in Shoreline before we went to Gas Works Park for some spectacular couple and group portraits with views of Seattle across Lake Union.

They had a beautiful ceremony at the Lake Union Cafe, which is one of my favorite places to photograph a wedding. I think it has the coolest ceiling and chandeliers in Seattle. Before the ceremony, we went to Gas Works Park and the Washington Park Arboretum for portraits.
