MV Skansonia Wedding | Laurel & Josh

Laurel and Josh had a cold, but nearly rainless spring day for their wedding. They were married on the deck of the MV Skansonia, a stationary ferry on the north end of Lake Union. With the way the boat sits, there are beautiful views of Seattle in the background. It is one of the best views of any wedding venue in the entire area.

Seattle Personal Branding Photography | Christi

Personal branding photography is a new term for something I have been doing for clients for a couple of decades - creating a group of images that they can use to market themselves.
