Heather 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.
