  • it’s the little things…

    I'm a bit goofy and always ready to have a good time - I love making clients laugh...it just so happens it's usually at me and some random thing I am doing to get "the shot" - If it's nice outside, I guarantee I will be found sitting in a patch of sunlight soaking in the rays - I tend to miss speak right when I am trying to be sassy, ... so I just end up sounding silly - I love all the noises a new baby makes be it cute or gross - My socks never match and I am proud of it - I avoid cleaning the bathroom like it's the plague. It comes from growing up with two brothers and always being on bathroom duty - I found out the hard way that garlic does NOT compliment everything... and now my husband doesn't let me in the kitchen unsupervised - I still get giddy and jittery before every wedding I photograph - I once thought the biggest gift of being self employed was making my own hours, now I know it's the luxury it gives me to raise my son (born April 2011) without the need of daycare - I love riding my bike, but don't have the constitution to make myself work out regularly - I believe that following your dream is not the easiest path but is definitely the most rewarding one. My dreams since I was 18 was to find the man of my dreams (check), raise a family (check) and create images for a living (check) - oh... and if you want to make me laugh, tell me a poop joke. Works EVERY time.

Hitched | DesMoines, WA | Diana and Steve

Diana and Steve are two that make you laugh. It is so fun to watch Diana’s face light up whenever Steve cracked a joke, or said something humorously inappropriate. These two have been together for over 15 years, and when I asked them about their engagement story, they said ” we just decided why not!” I love the spontaneity of that after soo many years together.

They were married in a small intimate and casual ceremony at the Anthony’s Home Port Restaurant near where they live. It was a great celebration of friends, family and laughter.

Steve is a car guy, so he worked for weeks coming up to the wedding to make sure his ’75 Chevy Vega was  ready because his lady asked him to. And it made for a great prop in the photos!

Loved the Geezer shirt he was sporting underneath his suit!

I loved the details they sprinkled through their day. Steve is a complete car guy, and Diana is big into quilting, so they had spark plugs, sockets, ribbon and spools decorating all of their tables. And flowers placed into carburetors

Their guest book was fabric that people wrote on that Diana will sow into a quilt for their home.

And Steve surprised Diana while she was walking down the aisle by putting on his ratty Carhartt hat. This hat is a staple item of clothing for Steve, and, going for a laugh like he always does, he snuck it on for a minute during the ceremony. Diana was laughing all the way through!

Congrats Diana and Steve!
