Swiftwater Cellars wedding in Roslyn, WA - Jody and Ian

Cle Elum Wedding Photographers

I’ve never met another couple with a deeper emotional connection than these two. Their love is deep, mature and inspiring. It’s hard to describe without being at the wedding, but this ceremony was very deep and spiritual. I felt like this ceremony wasn’t just vows and a kiss, but a deep intertwining of their emotions, and a heartfelt promise to one another. These two are incredibly genuine, polite, respectful, easygoing… and the list goes on. Very beautiful people on the inside and out, and I’m truly honored to have photographed this day for them!

During the toasts I remember people mentioning that this was love at first sight. Jody said it took her 40 years, but she finally found her one true love. I think this day was everything they had ever dreamed of. After the wedding her facebook status read,"Swiftwater's food was abundant and exceeded our expectations (I heard the pasta bar was delish but never got around to that food station), drinks were overflowing, the venue itself was so beautiful, the Celtic band was one of my favorite things, the flowers so lovely and personal, the cake tasted like grandma's homemade recipe, the toasts were incredibly heart felt and funny, the photo booth was a total blast (please share your photos if you have some that didn't make it into our scrapbook), the dj's timing was impeccable, family and friends smiling everywhere, tons of people dancing their butts off, fireside chats as the party winded down... brunch, chill time at the pool, BBQ and live music at the guest house... It was the most amazing destination wedding weekend. I wouldn't have changed a thing. The best time of my life! But the highlight, the most precious moment, was hearing "You are now husband and wife." I am so honored to be Mrs. Quitadamo."

Seattle Engagement Photos // Jackie and Ted!

Seattle Engagement Photographers

We began our session by joking about frozen jeans at Starbucks. Then we walked around the Greenlake area, did some handstands, did some crossword puzzles, and Ted took frolicking to a whole new level. We caught some of the sunshine, some of the spring blossoms, and may have tresspassed just one time to get a great shot :) This couple is a perfect match if you ask me. And they were set up by Ted's mom! They share a lot of interests and in general they are just fun and goofy together. They first met at the Seattle Aquarium, had their first date at Fisherman's Restaurant and Bar, and he proposed at Disneyworld... so we incorporated all of those things into this session! After some time at Gas Works Park and the Pier we ended with an awesome shot with the Seattle Great Wheel, which I later got to ride for the first time later that day after picking a friend up from the airport. We are photographing this couple's wedding at Moore Mansion this fall. Good times!!

Fremont Abbey Wedding - Seattle, WA // Alysia and Tyler

Seattle Wedding Photographers

Well, I have a very lovely wedding to share with you today. Keith and Lachelle photographed Tyler and Alysia's wedding in Seattle last weekend. They came back to Yakima with lots of great memories with this couple, their families, and the other vendors they worked with. I just have to give a quick shout out to Kelly Stevenson (Wedding Coordinator with Weddings by KLS) and her assistant Abby. They are amazing! Hire them for your Seattle area events please!!!

Lachelle and Keith mentioned mentioned all sorts of great things about their day...  highlights for them include but are not limited to:

  • The close relationship of the bride and groom: together for five years, both musicians and artistic, both so happy and excited to be married to each other. Genuine Joy. Tears during the ceremony. Very sweet and real relationship. Kind, gentle and fun together.... but also adventurous and spunky.
  • Awesome bond with groomsmen, most of which were friends since gradeschool. 
  • Close families. Grandma made the bouquets
  • Met in Seattle, married in Seattle
  • Married on "pi day" but did NOT HAVE PIE, they had cupcakes :)
  • Natural, woodsy theme. The forks and knives were wooden.
  • In the toast the bride and groom were praised for their artistic creativity, devotion and kindness as people.
Most of the photos were done at the Sheraton hotel and the Convention Center Park. Some also at their ceremony and reception venue, Fremont Abbey. Looking through the photos I really felt like I was there celebrating in all of the action. I don't think they could have chosen a better venue to accent all the many cute details and special touches.

St. Paul & Selah Civic Center Wedding - Yakima, WA // Cassie & Kevin

Yakima Wedding Photographers

Tavis and I photographed this wedding on February 21st at St. Paul's in Yakima and the Selah Civic Center. Highlights: It was great working with this family again (bride's sister was married a couple of years ago) the bridal party was transported by school bus, the mariachi was a surprise, the bridesmaids had the same dresses but just all wrapped different ways, and the toasts were very emotional! (both funny and tear jerkers at times) Here are the photo highlights!
