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….
Being homeschool parents brings a unique aspect to each of our client interactions. It’s a hard thing for me to sometimes “turn off” the homeschool mom in me, so you’ll likely find me spouting some random educational fact. Or you’ll find Jake teaching someone the art of finding four leaf clovers. Megan + Ben probably…
One of our favorite things is getting to see clients come back time and time again. We get the joy of watching families grow and flourish, bringing little ones back year after year for Santa sessions. Little Gus decided to arrive early, making his appearance just after our yearly Santa sessions, but before Christmas last…
Stephanie + Howard are amazing clients, whom we met through our Saturn Barter Membership. We were blessed to join them for their engagement session back down on the Tacoma Waterfront. We met next to the sundial at Jack Hyde Park (aka. Commencement Park) and chatted a bit before we started. Stephanie had the fun idea…
In April, I was able to join Julie of Sound and Sea Photography at Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo for Taylor + Dallas’ beautiful pacific northwest wedding. As much as I love second shooting, it’s hard to write about couples I really don’t know. So instead, I’m going to show you their beautiful wedding while talking…
Imagine with me: You meet someone online and after some chatting decide to meet in person. You set a place and time, but when you arrive they’re nowhere to be found. What do you do next? Do you sigh, figure you’ve been stood up and then leave? Or do you wait it out and hope…
