Ashley & Joe are getting married in less than three days!! Just a few weeks ago, we headed over to the Edmonds waterfront to do their engagement session, a place where they have spent many of their days off together. We had a great time spending the afternoon together, playing in the sand - rolling in the grass and ending the day at Starbucks! =) I can’t wait for their big day up at Lord Hill Farms (images to follow for sure!)
Enjoy!!
A few months ago, I met two wonderful gals (at Girl Power Hour of course) who have changed the gift giving world!! Juliana Wong & Heather Kleiner the owners of a fabulous company called Marrylicious, the company has focused mainly on wedding day gifts but the gift can be given to anyone (client or friend) and without a doubt they will appreciate it!!
The packaging is what first caught my eye - the boxes are gorgeous and can be used again and again… but wait until you see what is inside!! It is a huge hit and can be a life savor on a wedding day. =) Check out their website by clicking HERE.
Oh, and a couple of weeks ago, Heather & I got together to do a little photo-shoot of their packaging, here are a few of the shots. Enjoy!
In February Theresa & Atma enjoyed a traditional Indian wedding - where else but India of course! I got to peek at a few photos and it looked amazing!! Beautiful clothes, henna & so many other wonderful traditions. So last Saturday May 10th, at the Clise Mansion in Marymoor Park they celebrated an American style wedding with many friends and family from the area. They are very lucky to have so many family members travel such a long distance to be here for the event!!
Here is a collage of the images from the evening - enjoy!

Just two short weeks ago Cathy & Carlos tied the knot at one of my favorite places - The Hall at Fauntleroy. They have been SO much fun to work with (you can see their engagement photos HERE), I just knew their wedding was going to be a blast - (and it was!!) With great people, good food, pigs on the table, super cute buttons, and lots of loud music how could you go wrong?? Plus the sun came out just in time for a few photos after the ceremony!
Here are a few of my favorite images from the day ~ Enjoy!
Hello!! So, you may know that last week I went back home to Ketchikan Alaska for one of my best friend’s weddings. (SO FUN!) There are SO many photos to post, so I’m going to break them up. This first one is through the lens of my trusty Holga. If you aren’t familiar with this amazing type of camera there is a photo of it too! It is made of plastic, and there are no controls for focus, exposure or anything really - it actually has to be taped together and pieces of plastic strategically placed to keep the film from falling out. (I LOVE it!!) Everything that comes out of this little piece of magical plastic is perfect! Check out these first few shots!
This is a fun overlapped image (three actually) of my favorite local bar The Sourdough & my favorite neighbor/ bar owner Larry Kubley! (if you follow that link, you’ll see its a silly video from someone filming the bar!! It shows the walls are filled with fun photos of shipwrecks & fish kind of funny!!)
(Sometimes when the Holga owner forgets to forward the film you get overlapped images - hee hee)
I had actually never been to the Potlatch (another local bar) until this trip - and again - didn’t forward the film… Fun isn’t it?!?
This is part of a Totem Pole from Saxman - our Tlingit Village South of town.
(again if you look closely, you can see three different images)
I LOVE how damaged the Holga film looks - these are two more Totems, this time from Totem Bite (north of town)
Hope you’ve enjoyed this fun little Holga viewing…. stay tuned for color images from my favorite Nikon D3!
My trusty Holga! =) You should get one too!
Yesterday was a great day!! While checking the mail I received two fun looking packages and was surprised to find out I was voted Best in Weddings by local Knot loving brides!! (2nd year running!) Yay!!
Thank you for voting

Hannah & Clara Fay are home now and growing faster than ever! They were born a bit premature, but after a few short weeks and a lot of loving care at the UW Hospital they are doing wonderful!!
It was so fun to spend the morning with Erin, Josh & the girls - it was just two weeks ago, but looking at the snow coming down outside, you’d think it was January and not April!! These girls are so silly already! It is so entertaining just watching them wiggle around - it kind of looks like they are talking to each other and laughing!!
Here are a few of my favorite shots from the morning - enjoy!!
See the little birthmark on Clara. =) Thats how you can tell them apart!
We took a little break for some breakfast and to watch that snow come down - wow!!
hee hee - I wonder what they are contemplating!
aahh - buddies! With twins you get a built in best friend!!
