A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of consorting with this fun and lively couple, along with their exceptionally fun bridal party.  Lucky me!  I had such a fun time...Even though I always work my tail off at every wedding, it's always great when it doesn't even feel like work.

Here are a few of my favorites from their day-

These two Ballard residents stayed local for their nuptials, getting married at the Canal, on the Ballard locks.  It was a gorgeous day, and we definitely made the most of it, by exploring the gorgeous gardens. 

Here's the gorgeous couple meeting up in the gardens for the first time that day-

I love it when couples incorporate their pets into their wedding....and why not? they're family too!  Hannah and Ryan had their two Great Dane's in the bridal party.  Too cute!

These two lovebirds were married in Redmond, and celebrated their reception at De Lilelle Cellars in Woodinville.  The venue was stunning, and there were even several sheep on the property.  There are some weddings that I attend where the the couples are so in love that it's truly inspiring.  This was one of those weddings.  Congrats you two!

A fun, fitting the veil shot of Dede-

I love how Jesse got emotional at the first sight of his new bride-

They wanted one of *those eye shots*.   I always aim to please!

We took a little moment to have some fun with the sheep.  There were apricots on the ground, and the sheep would "beh-eh-eg" for you to feed them!

This adorable and fun-loving couple were married at their family vacation house in amazing Friday Harbor, in the San Juan Islands.  Raif and I went here on our first anniversary, and it was as breathtaking as ever.  It's definitely a fantastic place to get away, or to get married!   Here are a few from Jackie & David's wedding day, starting with a couple of getting ready shots-

Jackie&DavidBlog01.JPG
The reaction of Jackie's mother seeing her in her dress was so sweet -

Then it was time for the bride and groom to see one another, so I had David wait in this little cove -

The bridal party -

The light during the ceremony was just gorgeous!
Jackie&DavidBlog07.JPG
One of my favorite moments was at the beginning of the ceremony, when Jackie just couldn't hold it in, and gave her soon-to-be hubby a big smooch.  I love that the minister tried to stop her...nice try -

After the ceremony, the sun was setting, so we grabbed a couple of sunset shots...Jackie's favorite -

Maria and Alan are some of our absolute favorite people on the planet!  So, you can imagine how thrilled we were to share in their wedding day.  It was actually held at the same location that Raif and I were married at 4 years ago, so it definitely brought back memories for us.  Here are some images from their day, starting with the always beautisimus, Maria-

I realize that I've been MIA lately, and have been the world's greatest blolacker (blog-slacker).  A lot has been going on behind the scenes, and I will update y'all very soon. 

So, special thanks to Jessica and Karl for being patient with me!!  I am excited to share some images from their special day.  It was held on the 4th of July at the Edgewater Hotel.  You may recognize these two stunners from their engagement session a couple of months ago-

Deziree and Cory are such a delightful couple, and their daughter Destiny is adorable as they come!  I have always enjoyed getting to hang out with them when they are in town, and their wedding was no exception.  If you could see me right now, I'm doing my happy dance.  =)
Here are some shots from their day -

In reflecting on this past wedding season, I am so grateful for being able to work with the most awesome-azing clients.  I am a lucky girl!  I had so much fun looking through the last years memories.  It was hard to pick my favorites, because I love them all!  You be the judge, what's your favorite?  I'd love to hear -
