I’m always blown away by the Seattle Wedding Show and this year was no exception! Howard + the team put together an amazing showcase of vendors and the energy surrounding the show floor was palatable. After a few questionable years in the show industry, this year proved to be back on the upswing and foreshadows…
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: It’s always an honor to be trusted with our childhood friend’s weddings. (And I’m not just saying that because they read my blog either). It’s one of those things that keep us doing what we do. Photographing beautiful weddings. A Love on Four Wheels For those…
Every photographer has a list of dream venues tucked away in their head, making it hard to contain their excitement when a couple inquires with them and names their venue from this list. Red Barn Studios has been on my dream list for over 5 years, so you can imagine how excited I was when…
After our annual Santa Sessions, a few clients made a special request for 2024: Indoor “Classic” Mini Sessions. Having done sessions like this in the past, I really loved the idea of using a solid color wall and limited props. So, we’re making the leap and opening bookings for our March Minimalist Minis. March Minimalist…
Wowza! What a weekend! The New + Improved Tacoma Wedding Show was a hit and a whirlwind way to start the year out. It showed us some pretty interesting trends in Washington’s small corner of the wedding industry and we’re excited to share them with you! The TWS of the Past is gone! Nadine and…
Having been in the industry for 13 years now, you’d think I’d worked with everyone on the Seattle Wedding Show floor. But alas, I haven’t had the opportunity! Below you’ll find my list of recommended vendors, those I’ve worked with personally and my wishlist for each category too, along with their booth info. Hopefully this…
Jenny + Albert were the first of TWO weddings we’d have this year at The Barn at Wilson Farm. (Have I mentioned yet about the large number of “bucket list” venues we knocked out this year? It’s most of them.) I was so excited after their engagement session, but the day of I suddenly got…
Stephanie + Howard’s Wedding at the Realm was truly a gift this year for us. We got the joy of working with some of the most amazing vendors at an incredible venue so close to home. Stephanie + Howard were such a joy to work with. You can tell by looking at them they’d found…
We’ve been blessed getting to watch Dawn + Jaime’s love blossom over the past several years. When Dawn and I (Markie) met professionally, I was already divorced, and she was just starting on that path. We teamed up to bring confidence to women and found a wonderful friendship in the process. Watching Dawn + Jaime…
This year, Jake and I decided to branch out a little bit in our marketing after the past few years where in person shows were not allowed. While I’ve been hesitant to attend some of these shows, it’s been a fun experience this year. It was our second year participating in the Snohomish Wedding Tour….
