Josh & Nichole have been nothing but terrific since the first day we met. Easygoing, accommodating and sincere to the core is how I'd describe these two.   They've spent years together as a couple and finally, now are the happy married couple they've always been meant to be. Saturday May 9th is more than just the day these two were married. It was they day they celebrated their love and commitment to one another and a way to share it with their family and friends. Some may call their ceremony simple. And some may call their reception low key. What we'd have to call there ceremony is heartfelt, funny & most of all, totally Josh & Nichole. Seriously, their vows consisted of a reading, Dr. Seuss style. :)   Their reception... well lets just say that it wasn't necessarily a typical reception. The most important thing for these two was for everyone to have a great time and to share with them this special milestone in their lives. BUT... don't think for just one second that they didn't put their fun, different and corky twist on things! There were no traditional wedding cakes here. No-siree! Instead, days before, Nichole spent hours and hours baking multiple cakes. Each representing who they were as a couple. How did they taste? AMAZING comes to mind! :)   Who says you need champagne to toast? Not these two. How about Jello shots! A little tricky to get out of the glasses, they were still a big hint with guests.   Open bar anyone!?!? How about a bar full of almost any rum & all of the mixers you could need. To top it off... lets just go ahead and make these drinks in buckets!  Josh & Nichole, you were such a pleasure to work with. John and I are just so glad to have had the opportunity to get to know you both.  Labels: Recent weddings |

| We first met with John & Jennifer back in 2007. This last weekend they tied the knot and shared their special event with about 200 of their closest friends and family. If you remembered the crazy weather we had this past weekend, you'd remember that for the first part of Saturday it was Sunny & nice and then all of the sudden, just like Seattle, it began to rain like crazy. Thank goodness we were able to get some pictures outside before the monsoon came rolling in. The bridal party was full of energy & we got some great impromptu shots of them and all of their energy.         Congratulations John & Jennifer! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. To view more of John & Jennifer's wedding pictures, as they become available, please sign their guest book here.

| It'd been a whole year since I last saw this little angle. Reese Turned 2 this weekend and it was time for her 2 year pictures! I've had the privilege of capturing some of her most precious milestones, 6 months, 1 year and now, her at the 2 year mark. It's been so great watching her grow over the past year and a half and I am very much looking forward to continue to capture this little one through out her childhood. I love the age of 2. The great amount of growth that happens between 1 and 2 is just so fun to see. Last year she still needed mommy's assistance with the little things such as walking or climbing the stairs and this year, Reese was much more self efficient and it was so cute holding a conversation with her. Back at her house, we headed out to the back yard and while mommy & I chatted and caught up a little, Reese just played around us entertaining herself, but mostly us. :) It was a beautiful day outside and they have this gorgeous wooded area out back so we took a little walk. Reese posed a little for me and then it was off to change outfits... and activities. You see, her attention span, like that of most 2 year olds, was about the size of my pinky. To keep her occupied, we had to change up activities every so often. :)      Refreshed and ready for some more action she pulled then posed in her little red wagon. I got a few more shots of her and Mommy before she called it quits. I have to say, Reese did an amazing job for me all afternoon. I knew my time was up because well, Reese told me so! :) If you know toddlers, they have a very specific way of letting you know they've given you all they are willing to give. For Reese, it was burying her head in mommy's shoulders when I tried to snap any more pictures. It was very cute.     I had more than enough time and opportunity to snap away to my hearts content and as you can see, I wasn't left with nothing. Here are just a few of the 70+ keepers. I don't know about you, but these eyes and this smile still, just melts my heart!  Labels: Portraits |
