  • 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.

The other weekend, I joined Emma, Owen  and their family to share in their wedding. The day was beautiful, summer finally deciding to arrive, and HOT! It was at the end of the heat wave we had, and we were all excited for this beautiful outdoor wedding at the Hall at Fauntleroy.

Emma and Owen, whom you might remember from their Seattle engagement session a couple of months back, have been together for something like 6 years now. They met in college; Owen, a junior on the swim team, noticed this cute freshman girl in the pool, got up the nerve to go and talk to her. Luckily she was intrigued, and 6+ years later they are walking down the aisle together.
Their connection is super strong, and their obvious love for each other was shining through the day. We started out at South Lake Union at the Residence Inn. Once Emma and Owen had their first site and a moment together, we all piled into a limo to make our way to West Seattle. Stopping by Alki beach on our way to Lincoln Park for some photos in the sun. We ended at the Hall at Fauntleroy for their out door ceremony. Because of the heat, we also moved the dancing outside late in the night!
