What a couple of troopers! They had an amazing location reserved at Kerry Park, but the weather had other plans and forced them to find a place inside for the group shots and ceremony. Fortunately, they had already rented a nice house where we were able to get some preparation and group shots. I think...

Josh and Samantha got married today!
I got home not too long ago after the crazy day. We had to relocate and fly by the seats of our pants, but all turned out well despite the new locations. I’ll post some pictures here after I return from my trip to visit some family in Indiana. :)
Becca and James Maternity Shoot
Becca and James flew me out to Hawaii for a destination wedding a couple of years ago and wanted me to do their maternity shots too. I took them to Discovery Park to get the nature background that they had requested. It was an overcast day, perfect for pictures! The weather also seemed to discourage other...
Engagement shoot and snapshot fill flash tips
Last weekend I did an engagement shoot with Samantha and Josh. They seemed pretty happy with the location that I suggested despite the Mother’s Day/ first warm and sunny Seattle weekend that we’ve had in awhile. I chose the Arboretum because it’s not only gorgeous, but there are lots of nice little areas that you...
Choices in editing

If I haven’t already mentioned this, he’s a talented illustrator, graphic designer, painter, and author, so his computer is REAL nice! So, I prefer using it to my older powerbook when editing so...
Some more wedding shots
I’m almost finished editing the Orcas Island wedding photos. Since I see that the end is near, I thought I’d share a few more shots from that day.
I have many variations of this first one below. It was fun to play with the depth of field in this shot between the ironing bride in the...
Being a wedding guest
Part of last weekend was spent attending another wedding, but this time as a guest. It’s hard to resist jumping in to take a picture when you aren’t the hired professional. It’s hard for me, as I’m sure it is for anyone with a camera. And everyone has some form of a camera these days....
Orcas Island wedding
Two Saturdays ago, I awoke at 5:30AM to catch a ferry to Orcas Island for the wedding of Sarah and Andrew. It was a long day, but it flew by as these things often do. My non-photographer boyfriend, Dave, assisted me throughout the day wherever he was needed. Next time I hope to hire an...
