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…

Andrew + Samantha | Lynden Wedding Photography
On a gorgeous, crisp, perfectly fall day, Andy & Sam gathered all their family and friends to celebrate their next big adventure. It was a very excited group who showed up to toast their wedding day! These two are much beloved and it’s no small wonder; they are caring, fun-loving and embrace everyone around them….
Jasper + Emma | Lake Crescent Elopement
After years of growing together as a family – and several wedding re-iterations due to Covid – Jasper & Emma finally decided that their big day was going to be a private, intimate one. With only Jasper’s daughter Lailiya and a friend to officiate, they took a weekend in a charming vrbo and trekked out…
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 | Woodstock Farm Wedding
Daniel & Lindsey met serendipitously at a park one day, and are truly the perfect pair. Sweet-natured, generous and personable, they gathered their closest family and friends for an intimate wedding celebration at Woodstock Farm. It’s a beautiful historic venue overlooking the water, and the day was bright, sunny and perfect! There was a covid…
Trent + Kaitlin | Avalon Links Golf Course Wedding
It was a gorgeous sunny summer day for Trent & Kaitlin’s long-awaited wedding at Avalon Links Golf Course. Trent is a golf pro there – and everyone adores Trent, so the entire staff was on board to celebrate as well as keep things running smoothly. The cheerful sunflower & rose decorations highlighted the joyful atmosphere;…
Michael + Michelle | Bellingham Golf & Country Club Wedding
Michael & Michelle are the ultimate hosts, and their wedding celebration was naturally no exception. Centered around their guests – who travelled across the country to share the day with these two incredible people – this was a day for laughing, sharing drinks, dancing and enjoying the company of everyone around you. An amazing start…
Mike + Amy | Anniversary Photo Session
20 years! That’s a milestone. My friends Mike & Amy celebrated their anniversary this year and we got together in a random field in Ferndale for a quick mini session to commemorate how cute they still are. 😉 Look! They’re adorable.
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. Everywhere you look there’s another cute country-style decor piece peeking out; and from the rolling hills behind the picturesque garden to the hand-made wood wall in the barn, the care and love put into this…
Joe + Katie | Barnstar Ferndale Wedding
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. It was a beautiful, rustic chic, quintessential fall wedding in the PNW! Gorgeous autumn…
Joey + Rachel | Fairhaven Park Picnic Wedding
I absolutely love this idea: invite your closest family and friends to Fairhaven Park on a beautiful sunny fall day, make everyone boxed picnic lunches, spread out blankets and bring a homemade cake. And while you’re all there together… let’s get married! 🙂 That’s exactly what Joey & Rachel – and the ever-adorable Leo –…
Jeremy + Amber | Whatcom Falls Forest Elopement
Whatcom Falls is becoming a destination elopement location! This is the second ceremony this summer I’ve had the honor of photographing (check out the other here) who has flown in from out of state to start their married lives next to a waterfall within the canopy of this gorgeous forest. Jeremy and Amber chose Whatcom…
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…
Cameron + Christine | Bellingham Sacred Heart and Cruise Terminal Wedding
Amid adoring family & friends on a beautiful day in September, Cameron & Christine sealed their forever vows together at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Fairhaven and then celebrated under the dome inside the majestic Cruise Terminal. For this sweet, devout couple who pray the rosary together every single morning, this was the perfect beautiful…
Tyler + Jade | Lairmont Manor Wedding
Nestled away in the neighborhoods of old Fairhaven, Lairmont Manor might just be the most classically beautiful wedding venue in Whatcom County. It feels like you stepped back in time and are attending a royal wedding in the era of high romance; and Jade really looked the part of a real-life princess with her off-the-shoulder…
David + Diana | Sacred Heart Wedding
Inside the beautiful Sacred Heart Catholic Church, David & Diana pledged their forever to each other and then celebrated with close friends and family at a classically beautiful reception at the Hotel Bellwether. All the creamy ivory tones and vintage lace styling gave the day a timeless elegance that seemed to match this couple’s deeply…
Cameron + Christine | Western Washington University Engagement Photos
On Saturday, we get to join Cameron & Christine as they start their forever; but a few weeks ago, we got to hang out with them where they met, Western Washington University, for their engagement session. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing this cute couple again!
North + Caroline | Locust Beach Engagement Photos
The perfect sunset for the perfect couple! I was so happy to have such an awesome location for the GORGEOUS North & Caroline’s engagement photos – Locust Beach did not disappoint.
Trent + Kaitlin | Northern State Engagement Photos
Trent and Kaitlin are getting married next year and for their engagement session we got to meet up with them at a place that was entirely new to me – Northern State Rec Area in Sedro Woolley, the old mental hospital! It was such a cool location, I could shoot there for hours. And after…
North + Caroline | Bellingham Wedding Photography
There were so many gorgeous moments throughout North & Caroline’s wedding day that it took me forever to put this blog together just for the difficulty of choosing what to put in! Spring Time Farm served as the rustic garden backdrop, and a plethora of handmade creamy wildflower bouquets dotted every surface. Nearly every detail…
Russell + Cassandra | Whatcom Falls Adventure Wedding
I’ve had the privilege of photographing all kinds of weddings for 17 years now, and in all of that time I’ve never been a part of an experience like what Russ & Cass put together. They flew in from Colorado for a PNW adventure wedding on top of a waterfall, and because Russell has always…
Josh + Emily | Lynden Home Wedding
Joyful, humble, purposeful, dedicated, adventurous, easygoing; the first of many words that come to mind when I think about Josh and Emily. This couple is positively, literally a perfect match made in heaven. The complete adoration they have for each other is inspiring and as a pair, they spark tangible joy wherever they are. Josh…
Josh + Emily | Engaged
These two are made for each other; adventurous, deeply caring, genuinely joyful people who found their perfect partner in life. I think my favorite part about Josh & Emily is the way that BOTH of them automatically smiled and (yes literally) cooed every time I asked them to get their faces close to each other….
Gabe + Rachel | Hotel Sorrento Seattle Urban Wedding
Between the gorgeous historic Hotel Sorrento in downtown Seattle and the incredible architectural design of the Chapel of St. Ignatius on Seattle University’s campus, this urban wedding was practically iconic from start to finish. I couldn’t get over every beautiful, texturized, light-drenched detail. And you couldn’t find a better couple to be hosting their close…
Ryan + Katie | Bellingham Wedding Photography
May Day was beautiful this year, even beyond the perfect spring weather; because two of the sweetest, most deserving people started a new life together. I completely adore Katie and she has found her perfect match in Ryan. Congratulations again, you two – you’ve got a lot of happy years in front of you! ❤️
