The Baraat set the tone and the dance floor finished it off. Nattaly and Dash had a bright, colorful, and deeply joyful multicultural wedding at Briarwood Estate in Mount Vernon, Washington, blending Guatemalan and Indian traditions into a celebration that was layered and alive from start to finish.

Dan and Karli gathered their closest family and friends and hiked up to a viewpoint at Mount Rainier National Park, said something simple and sweet and completely meant it, then walked back down and shared sandwiches, cake, and cold Rainier beers together.

The Foxtrot on SE Belmont is a 130 year old Victorian with cozy gothic vibes, an exceptional cocktail program, and a reportedly haunted kitchen. It is also where Ashley and Andy got married, in front of a pink velvet couch, surrounded by their closest friends. Honestly the most on brand elopement I have ever photographed.

Round Barn Farm in Red Wing, Minnesota is already the kind of place that feels like it exists slightly outside of ordinary time. Add a couple deeply in love with Lord of the Rings, months of handcrafted DIY details, and a room full of people genuinely happy to be there, and you get one of the most joyful wedding days I have ever had the privilege of photographing.

Olympic National Park in January is not for everyone. Devyin and Val are exactly the kind of people it is for. Rain, snow, a waterfall, and vows so soaked through they were barely legible. One of my favorite days.

Sara has been one of my closest friends for over ten years. When she asked me to photograph her December elopement at Hoyt Arboretum in Portland, I said yes before she finished the sentence. Six of her favorite people, a redwood deck in the trees, dinner at Le Pigeon, and a bottle of wine they bought on their first date. This one was special.
