Drew and I had so much fun at Melanie & Jason’s Lake Chelan Destination wedding. I had a feeling that it was going to be amazing…since I met with Mel & Jason, then saw their friends in action at this fun wedding at Hidden Meadows…I had an inkling that this wedding was going to be pretty epic. And it delivered.

When I walked into the Grandview and saw Melanie’s lace and tulle dress hanging and saw all of the soft dusty pink bridesmaids dresses, my inkling was confirmed. Not only was it gorgeous, but all of the bridesmaids were super fun and game for anything!

I loved it when Nana took a shot on her iphone. :)

Tsillan Cellars was a gorgeous reception venue. We did the first look there, on a sweet bridge next to the floating dance floor (with incredible lights hanging!!!)

Next we headed to a row in the vineyard…it was incredible! I loved the light in this shot! 

I love it when the bride chooses to do all the same fabric of bride’s maids dresses in different styles…they are unique, but still have a nice flow.

I’m pretty sure this is a Don’t Stop Believin moment. So epic.

Erika and Paul’s wedding was so much fun…and when I was doing their fabulously styled engagement session, I all ready knew it  was going to be incredible!

Upon walking off the ferry at Lopez Island, we found this gloriously decorated shuttle van that took us on to our destination! I loved it so much!! I knew we were in the right place.

 When I walked into the house where the girls were getting ready…I just about died when I saw all these incredible dresses hanging!! :) If you know me…you know aqua/turquoise/tiffany blue just brings me emence joy! And Erika’s dress!!! So stinking gorgeous! x

I can’t even express how much I love this photo!  The sunglasses plus these gorgeous dresses, fun ladies and the beach!! Are you kidding me???

Here are just a few images from Melanie & Jason’s Tsillan Cellar’s Wedding, in beautiful Lake Chelan!  High on the ridge overlooking Lake Chelan, Tsillan Cellars is one of my new favorite wedding venues in Eastern Washington. I LOVED the Tuscany style of the buildings, they spared no detail, all the way down to the very ornate italian style restrooms!  I loved them!

The View was amazing, the venue was amazing and for a photographer, there were so many great places to shoot. I kept saying that it felt just like being in Napa Valley or Italy! (but just a little closer to home!) It was a perfect place for a destination wedding and I can’t wait to photograph my next wedding there! 

Here are just a few of my favorites from Maura & Kyle’s amazing downtown Seattle Wedding. I loved that it was Modern, fun and just a touch of nautical elements, without being cheesy. It was so lovely!

We started out the day…Maura & her girls at her sister’s fun loft apartment (read….TONS of amazing light!!) and then headed to South Lake Union park and MOHAI. This was such a perfect location…it had all of the right elements. Lots of water, boats, some green and the MOHAI building has a vintage feel. Very Seattle.

Then we headed to the amazing new(ish) uber modern wedding venue, Within Sodo* (*note to self…and other wedding photographers: DO NOT go though downtown seattle from Mercer to Sodo the day of a Paul McCartney Concert. )

I am in love with this new venue! It has SUCH a great rooftop deck…it was glorious, breezy and the perfect place for cocktail hour and dancing!

I loved that Maura was a total trooper and wanted to walk in her amazingly fluffy and gorgeous ballerina wedding gown a few blocks to the MOHAI.
