Gilbert Wedding

Port Gamble wedding

This wedding was incredible! The location was beautiful, the weather was perfect, and the people were extraordinary. To think that we got the privilege of photographing this wedding because of a simple Instagram comment is rather crazy to think about. Jon and Marissa live in Utah so we were forced to communicate via e-mail and Skype for most of […]

Carroll Wedding

Mount Vernon wedding

Photographing the wedding of another photographer might sound stressful, but we felt no such concern about this wedding because Jason and McKenzie are some of the loveliest clients we’ve ever had. They’re good at knowing how to schedule things and they realize that, at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter what goes wrong as long […]

Workshop Series: Lighting

Photography Workshop

We like to share our photography knowledge with other people, so this series is meant to show off some of the work that our workshop participants have created. Flash photography is overwhelming to a lot of people. Most of us are familiar with pop-up flashes that make everything washed out and/or produce the dreaded “red eye”. When faced with the choice […]

Johnson Engagement Session

Seattle engagement

Chase and Dana are proud Seattleites, so for their engagement session we visited a few of the city’s more romantic locations. We started off in Pioneer Square and walked around some of the oldest streets in the area. From there we jumped on the water taxi and headed over to West Seattle for some fantastic views […]

Bennett Wedding

Weddings in May are often risky in western Washington if you’re hoping for good weather but, thankfully, Peter and Elisabeth got really lucky this year. The forecast was looking iffy all week, but by Saturday, expected showers turned into harmless cloud cover. They had both the ceremony and the reception at Resurrection Church in Tacoma, WA […]

Workshop Series: Portraits

Photography Workshop

We like to share our photography knowledge with other people, so this series is meant to show off some of the work that our workshop participants have created. A surprising number of photographers say that they struggle with portraits, so this workshop focused on ways to take better pictures of people. We discussed how proper posing and use of light […]

Greenfield Engagement Session

Lena Lake engagement

We had originally planned an epic location for Jake and Anna’s engagement session, but the permits proved to be rather difficult to acquire, so we had to quickly come up with a different plan. Lake Cushman was an early option, but when we suggested a hike up to Lena Lake instead, they thought it sounded […]

Elliott Engagement Session

Chamber Bay engagement

2015 is going to be an important year for the Chambers Bay Golf Course as it’s hosting the U.S. Open for the first time. We toured the grounds in mid-February and felt that it was a fantastic place for an engagement session, so we invited Brian and Kristin to join us. The low winter sun […]

Workshop Series: Composition

Photography Workshop

We like to share our photography knowledge with other people, so this series is meant to show off some of the work that our workshop participants have created. This workshop was all about composition. We talked about some of the “rules” of composition in photography including the rule of thirds, use of leading lines, and negative space. […]
