“It is understood that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravages of any storm. When a rainbow appears, it does not mean that the storm never happened or tha twe are not still dealing with its aftermath; it means that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of…

Baby Sanchez {Whatcom Falls Bellingham Maternity Photography}
Baby girl will be here any day, and I was honored to photograph the last memories of beautiful Tammy’s pregnancy. We went to Whatcom Falls, which was one of her favorite places while living in Bellingham, and she was a trooper hiking all over the place! I can’t wait to meet their new little one…
Zach + Elisabeth {Jamaica Destination Wedding Photography}
First of all, let me just say that if you’re going to get married in Jamaica, the best way to start your wedding day is DEFINITELY taking romantic photos while you’re swept around by incoming waves in an underground cave. Just saying. Aside from the whole sexy-morning-cave thing, Zach & Lizzie’s wedding was a truly…
Chris + Rachel {Bellingham Cruise Terminal Wedding Photography}
Best friends make the best husbands and wives! Chris & Rachel are starting off right, and everything about their wedding day reflected that deep friendship. With a waterfront ceremony at Marine Park, the party continued across the street at the Cruise Terminal where guests enjoyed delicious down-home BBQ in the midst of twinkling overhead lights…
Brendon + Lindsey {Rhythm Waters Wedding Photography}
Brendon & Lindsey’s was truly a fairy tale wedding… complete with the fairies. As one of her bridesmaids put it, Lindsey was simply Galadriel today; I didn’t have any difficulty whatsoever imagining that she was Elvish royalty, with her cascading hair, flowing dress, charming smile and graceful attendants. I had such an incredibly hard time choosing which images to…
Karen Said Yes! {Surprise Proposal Photography}
When Burt contacted me about surprising his girlfriend with a Seattle rooftop proposal at sunset, I was SUPER excited. Are you kidding me?! What an awesome moment to be a part of!! And it did not disappoint. Burt & Karen’s families all gathered at a cousin’s apartment complex for a “birthday party” for Burt… with…
Laird + Bryce {Hotel Bellweather Wedding Photography}
Laird & Bryce are a great couple; they’re one of those that so perfectly complements the other that you can tell right away they were made for each other. With a simple, laid-back day planned, the important pieces for this wedding were in the people attending. Everyone there genuinely adored both of them and loved them…
Brian + Jenna {Samson Winery Wedding Photography}
When we arrived at Samson Winery for Brian & Jenna’s celebration Friday morning, it… was… HOT. Everyone was sweltering in the prep rooms, and the most excited everyone got was when we suggested doing some of the portraits in the air conditioned wine-making space! But as luck would have it, an amazingly gorgeous cloud cover rolled…
Jordan + Megan {Shuksan Golf Course Wedding Photography}
At the gorgeous Shuksan Golf Club, Jordan & Megan celebrated with friends and family on Saturday with a laughter-strewn ceremony and a thumping beat on the dance floor that evening. Megan was an absolute stunning vision; she radiated quiet elegance all day and Jordan clearly couldn’t keep his eyes off her. These two are so…
Simple Vintage Perfection {Maplehurst Farm Wedding Photography}
Lavender and lace with simple perfection; that’s how I would describe this wedding. They wanted a quiet, beautiful day to celebrate their wedding with their closest friends, and that’s exactly what they created. While her details were exquisite -lavender sprigs wrapped in lace table runners with hand-cut wood rounds balancing bright wild flowers and love quotes…
Chris + Kealley {Hotel Bellweather Wedding Photography}
You may think that the old wives tale that “rain on your wedding day is good luck” is a load of crap -as Kealley may or may not have thought waking up this morning- but today, it proved pretty true. With stormclouds threatening all morning, we all braced ourselves for a full-on October day in…
Chris + Stephanie {Pan Pacific Hotel Wedding Photography}
On one of the hottest days of the year, Chris & Stephanie tied the knot in the gorgeous, elegant …and thankfully air conditioned… Pan Pacific Hotel in downtown Seattle. The day may have started out stressfully with all the little details being ironed out by the two perfectionists that they are, but by the time…
Nick + Krystal {Shuksan Golf Course Wedding Photography}
It’ s been awesome watching these two lovebirds through the years; all the way from starry-eyed high school sweethearts to starry-eyed bride & groom. 🙂 We’ve had the privilege of photographing Nick’s family though many years of events and occasions, and were so honored to be a part of Nick & Krystal’s wedding this weekend. Nick serves as…
Ethan + Cathy {Mercer Island Community Center Wedding Photography}
The Mercer Island Community Center was a perfect venue for Ethan & Cathy’s big day; and even though they had to move the ceremony indoors at the last minute due to the threat of thunderstorms (which never materialized), their guests couldn’t have had a better time celebrating with these two amazing people. You will never…
Kyle + Rachel {Mercer Island Community Center Wedding Photography}
Oh my goodness! I’m so sorry this is late getting posted! Rapidly impending babydom has taken over my brain & my time this week. But I’m SO excited to share this gorgeous wedding and adorable couple with you! Kev & I could not have had more fun with Kyle & Rachel last weekend for their…
Brian + Jenna {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Snow, rain, freezing wind, whatever – nothing could keep these two away! We woke up to snow on the ground at the top of our hill in Ferndale on the morning of our engagement session with Brian & Jenna, and they were totally up for playing in the snow; sadly, driving down the hill to…
The Stampers {Bellingham Family Photography}
This was a bittersweet session with one of my favorite families. I’ve had the honor of photographing this little family from the time that Jane was a baby, and this weekend they’re moving cross-country. I’m excited for their new adventures but so sad for our church community and all that we’ll miss not have them…
Chris + Rachel {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
I get positively giddy when I get couples in front of my camera who are not only in love, but solidly best friends; and these two are the genuine article. We headed to Baker with Chris & Rachel earlier this year, determined to find snow for their engagement session. And find it we did! We…
