Woodtime Fantasies in Leavenworth

I booked a session in Seattle, which meant I also got to spend every waking moment with my best friend.

Since we tend to be a bit MUCH around our significant others, we do weekenders around the PNW.

This time, we finally hit Leavenworth. Read More

WOW. It has been an amazing few months back to work. 

Starting off in Pittsburgh and wrapping up Spring in Seattle is always a best case scenario.

Alice Ayresona

I love my family. So much, that after being stuck in a house together for almost a year and half, booked a flight to Phoenix, and spent 4 days in a casita by myself.

Of Dogtown

Alex and I have been married for 8 years and I basically just figured out that I know nothing about him.
And while I was clearly not asking the right questions, I was also not telling him what I wanted. 
With a revelation like that, a weekend out of town sans youths was a solid idea.

Amish Paradise

Tattoos.
 
I didn’t even have one until I was in my 30’s, and it wasn’t even a midlife crisis.
It just took me that long to figure out what I want. And if that’s not a effing metaphor for my entire existence…

A Hemlock Weekend

“Only people of a certain disposition are frightened of being alone for the rest of their lives at the age of 26, and we were of that disposition.”

Rodanthe, North Carolina

My final trip of 2017 is so close to my heart. This is our final family vacation as the three of us, before our little girl joins us in a few weeks. We rented a house in The Outer Banks with my husband’s side of the family and had a wonderful time. My beautiful, but incredibly cautious little guy was not very keen on the wild ocean. However, he loved playing monster trucks in the sand and swimming in the pool with his Aunt Lauren. Here are a bunch of shots of a few of the people I love the most.

A Seattle Wedding: Gwen and Nicholas

Gwen and Nick are perfect for each other. I always knew Gwen would meet a profound man to spend the rest of her life with, and she did just that. They had a lovely afternoon ceremony and cocktail reception at East Shore Unitarian Universalist Church.

This wedding is extremely close to my heart. My best friend of 10 years married the love of her life in a beautiful church underneath the tall trees of Seattle. I was not only the wedding photographer of this perfect event, but the Matron of Honor as well. I agreed to do both important jobs with my bouquet in my left hand and my camera in my right. I would like to send a special thanks to Nick’s sister and Mom, who made sure I was in a few shots too!

I love you both so much, Gwen and Nick! Congratulations on your new marriage and thank you for allowing me to be apart of it!

Seattle, Washington Engagement: Gwen and Nicholas

This was essentially a dream sequence for me. My best friend is marrying this wonderful man, in my favorite city in the world, Seattle. This beautiful couple in this beautiful city. What a complete honor it was to travel to the west coast and spend a long weekend with them. I cannot put into words how excited I am for their wedding in May of next year! xoxo
