CDA Resort Wedding Photographer: Dylan & Samantha

It’s not every day, or even every year, you go to a wedding that has two ceremonies. In fact, I believe that’s only happened to me once before, and even then they were on different days. Well Dylan and Sam put that all aside and said “let’s do both!” And so we had a day with multiple dresses, changes, portraits when we could, two ceremonies, great toasts and incredible people. Dylan and Sam are two people that are so great to be around, so kind, and this translates to their friends and family as well. This wedding had so many great moments, I am so excited that I have the chance to share those with you.

Eastern Washington Wedding Photographer: Bella & Katie

I had the chance to meet Bella and Katie at a wedding I photographed several years ago at the Davenport Hotel in Spokane Washington (shout out to Chris and Sammy!) As was the case with that whole group, both Bella and Katie were excellent people to get to know, but kind and thoughtful, but also fun to laugh with. So when they contacted me and asked if I could photograph their wedding out near Mt. Rainier National Park I was pumped. Not just because I’d get the chance to see some friends again, but because it’s such a beautiful area to be in. So here are the photos, and I hope you love them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Wedding at the Coeur d’Alene Resort: Jared & Alexis

Jared and Alexis had such an awesome day. I had fun with them from the second I walked into the getting ready room, all the way to the very end on the dance floor. They are so easy to talk to, get along with, and absolutely easy to photograph. Not only that, watching this amazing couple take care of their beautiful daughter on the day of, in the midst of the whole thing was beautiful. Getting to share these photos with you is an absolute blessing, and I am so exited to hear what you think!

Leavenworth Elopement Photographer: Robbie & Cassie

Robbie and Cassie are two people I have very much enjoyed my time with, from their (freezing) engagement session, to this climb to the top of a mountain near Leavenworth, WA, When they asked me if I wanted to join them on a hike where they were going to share each other’s vows and get married early (they still have a reception planned for New Years Day at the Spokane Club) I was so excited for it. Two amazing people, hiking, an incredible location? Yes please. And even though we had a lot of smoke on this particular day, I absolute love how these turned out. Here are some of my favorites!

CDA Resort Wedding: Zach and Chelsea

Zach and Chelsea are two people with magnetic personalities. They are fun to be around, their friends are fun to be around, and things seem to just flow with them. So when on their wedding day the wind blew and the sun came and went I wasn’t a big deal. I think it’s obvious in the photos at just how much fun these two had on their wedding day, and I can say I also had a blast. I love their story, their friends, and the family I met. And you add on top of that the incredible location at the CDA Resort and the incredible backdrop of Coeur d’Alene Lake, I am absolutely pumped with the photos I have the chance to share with you. I hope you love them!

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Max & Brittany’s Barn on Wild Rose Prairie Wedding

Max and Brittany are two amazing people. They love those close to them fiercely, and they know who they are. They love each other, they love their family and they love their animals. I can honestly say I’ve never had a bride ask me to focus on the animals as much as Brittany did, but what an awesome opportunity to get some truly unique photos! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of a bride feeding a baby cow milk on her wedding day. But I can check that one off the bucket list. Max and Brittany are awesome, and I truly enjoyed their company, their family, and meeting all their friends at their beautiful wedding, and I’m so excited to be able to share these photos with you of their big wedding day at The Barn on Wild Rose Prairie.
