andi + mark, a preview | married at georgetown ballroom | seattle and portland wedding photographers

andi + mark love each other.

oh, I know, that's what we say about every couple on their wedding day. but a + m, their love lights up their faces, animates them, creates a spark that's undeniable. what a privilege to photograph couples like this. together, they are kind, thoughtful, and so much fun.

georgetown ballroom-- gorgeous, colorful and full of life, was a hoot to photograph. not an easy venue in terms of lighting (what can I say, I'm gonna tell it like it is), but totally rewarding.

so, a preview.

sonya + jonathan, a preview | married on heyday farm | bainbridge island wedding photographers

How lovely it was to photograph Sonya + Jonathan's intimate "elopement" at heyday farm on Bainbridge Island last week. They and 50 of their closest friends and family (that still counts as intimate, right?) gathered on a gorgeous July day to celebrate the beginning of their new lives together as husband and wife. The emotion here? It's real, folks.

joy + sean, a preview | bainbridge island wedding photographers

Moments into their ceremony, as they stood facing each other under the archway, Joy reached out to Sean and pulled him closer. Too far, her gesture said. I need you nearer to me.

The love, the tenderness, the emotion on their day was palpable. J + S gathered with family, seven in all, and held a simple, beautiful, heartfelt celebration at their Bainbridge Island home. It is always my honor and pleasure to capture any couple's wedding day, but this celebration has taken special hold in my heart. You'll see what I mean.
