I always say how much fun I have with my clients and I honestly don’t say that to say it. So when I say that I had so much fun at Matt and Dana’s wedding it is true. I met the last year when we did their engagement session at Bothell Landing
Here are a few from that session

When Matt and Dana booked me last year for their August wedding this year, I was thrilled. I really believe that once you develop a good relationship with clients its so much more fun to work together. You almost feel like friends vs a photographer taking photos of a client. Their wedding August 8th 2009, was at Whispering Firs Lodge in Mount Vernon. From cupcakes to cigars this wedding was down to earth, fun and full of surprises… cupcake in the face Matt?
Here are some images from the wedding.

Last week I met an amazing couple Erin and Roy and they booked me for their August 15th wedding at the Inglewood Country Club in Kenmore, WA.   Yes usually couples book in advance of upwards to a year but due to some circumstances they found themselves looking for a photographer very last minute.  Luckily Erin and Roy were at Paper Fling in Country Village in Bothell and came across my business card that I had left during an open house 2 weeks prior.  They gave me a call and we met and clicked right away.   I always explain to my clients how important it is that you are able to connect with your vendors.  
With my collection I offer engagement sessions and due to the timing of this and the fact they had previously had a session, we were going to opt out and do a future session instead.  However Erin really wanted sign photos for her wedding so we decided to go ahead and meet and have a session so we could these done for her.

Sunday we met at Calabria in Kirkland.  A fantastic Italian restaurant that I had heard about but never gone to. ( I can assure you I will be going back).  We had dinner and drinks ( well i had a glass of wine because I don’t drink and shoot).  After we went to the Kirkland waterfront and took some photos a little before sunset!   We had an amazing time.  Really it was like hanging out with friends ( Josh my husband and assistant came and he worked with some of Roy’s friends and family before.. small world). 

I honestly can not tell you how much I am looking forward to the wedding and what a wonderful couple Erin and Roy are.

Here are the photos to prove it!

Back in July I was able to assist a fellow photographer Casey Karbowski with a wedding out in Federal way, Wa
Anna and Joe were a delight and so clearly in love that anyone in a mile radius could feel it.
Here are a few of my fav images from that day.
