Ben + Kayla wanted to do a conceptual style wedding portrait after their actual nuptials. We shot them at the same place they got married, Monroe River Valley Farm.  You could never tell Kayla is actually 4 months pregnant here and was still willing to do some minor climbing to make some awesome images. Make-Up done by Sydney Christensen and hair + wardrobe styling by DeeAyna from JW Photography. See images from their actual wedding here.

Mike is one of the first people I met when I moved Washington. We actually met on Craigslist, but not in the creepy sort of way everyone’s mind goes to. He has been a great asset to JW Photography with his photography and design skills. Not too much longer, I met Ashley. She has a soft spot in her heart for helping children and makes me laugh every time I see her.

They got engaged and asked me to be their photographer. It meant a lot to me to be able to be the one to capture special moments on their day. All the images make me smile and bring me back to that fun, HOT, happy day.

April 20, 2012. I woke up verrrrryyyy nervous as it was not only raining, it was a down-pour, windy, walk with your hood pulled down over your face kind of day. Adam & Amanda, from Adam Hommerding Photography, were here visiting from Minnesota and we ventured to shoot Ben + Kayla’s wedding with fingers crossed. We met them at Monroe River Valley Farm (The Slaughter House).

As soon as we arrived and unpacked, the clouds opened and the sun came out bright and shining. It was perfect. They had an intimate ceremony with no more than a handful of close guests. It was beautiful. My associate photographers admitted later to crying during the ceremony. (I have bad hearing and couldn’t hear pretty much anything).    🙂    Ben + Kayla are probably THE most sincere and in-love couple I have been around in a long time. It was amazing to be around them and also to be able to be the one to photograph their special day.

As you enjoy these images, be sure to check out the Facebook page in the next couple of days and let Ben + Kayla know which images are YOUR favorite!

Remember Drew + Lynsey? They finally tied the knot!! December 10th of last year. So weird to be saying ‘last year’ when it doesn’t really seem that far away. They got married at the Pickering Barn in Issaquah. That is still one of my favorite venues to photograph in. Such a cool establishment.

The couple surprised the guests with a choreographed dance to ‘Footloose’ after the final kiss. I can’t even begin to explain how cool it was. When I first heard about it, I thought they were just going to dance down the aisle to the song while they filed out. No. It was amazing! Drew & Lynsey (and all 12 of their attendants) danced in unison in front of everyone to the whole song. It was so cool AND the only time they practiced was right before the wedding. To top it off, they choreographed it themselves! I’ll be sure to post a link to see it if the video is ever put on the internet. So cool!
