Intimate, small backyard weddings are where my heart is right now. The laid-back closeness that everyone shares; the casual beauty in the details; the inside jokes and family traditions that run through everything. Jon & Sarah have been together for long enough that they’re already creating their life hand-in-hand, and today was a complete and…

Ben + Liz | Anacortes Wedding
The perfect partnership of effervescence, humility, hospitality and comfortable friendship that collide in the couple that is Liz & Ben is simply remarkable. You just can’t experience the two of them and walk away without feeling like you’ve been wrapped up in a hug. No joke! I’m so happy that they’ve found each other and…

It’s not often that I get to play around with urban textures these days, so I’m really excited when someone wants to set their session in back alleys with bricks & graffiti! Andy & Sam were a riot to hang out with (and spoiler alert, their wedding was amazing). We spent a little time at…

Brennan + Khia | Wandering Waters Wedding
OK, so technically this wasn’t a wedding – this was Brennan & Khia’s “Later Party”! They eloped in 2020 on the spur of the moment, this summer were finally able to celebrate with family & friends at the gorgeous Wandering Waters event venue. The day was filled with friends gathered and laughing together, goofing off,…

Daniel & Lindsey met serendipitously at a park one day, and are truly the perfect pair.

An amazing start…

Joe + Jenn | 3 C’s Farm Country Wedding
3 C’s Farm out in Deming is the perfect – and I mean PERFECT – rustic chic country wedding venue.

Barnstar in Ferndale is one of my favorite wedding venues, and we haven’t been able to photograph a wedding there since pre-covid days; so I was really excited to be able to join Joe and Katie there for their big day.

Joe + Jenn | Tennant Lake Hovander Park Engagement Photos
Life is all about timing, isn’t it? Joe & Jenn were friends in high school, but life went in different directions and they lost touch. Fast forward a couple of decades, their mothers reconnect them (bragging rights!), and they both recognized that they were immediate perfect fit. It’s obvious after spending just a few minutes…
