Matt and Alexis' Bozarth Mansion and St. Al's Wedding

Matt and Alexis are two awesome people. This is confirmed to me every time I spend time with them. It started when we met for coffee, but it continued when we did their engagement photos, and then was reaffirmed at their wedding. They are just great people, who are quick to laugh, ready to listen, and just fun to be around. I had an absolute blast with these two, from the early morning to their beautiful ceremony in St. Al’s cathedral. I hope you love these wedding photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Chance & Lily's beautiful Settlers Creek Wedding

Chance and Lily had an incredible wedding at Settlers Creek in June of this year. It was absolutely beautiful, from an incredible sunset, to an incredible couple, group, family, and friends. I loved every minute of their wedding, and I am so excited to be able to share these photos with you. Let me know what you think of them! I know I love how they turned out.

Sean and Tyler's Settlers Creek Wedding

As I was going through and editing Sean and Tyler’s wedding I was reminded of several things. First, and most obvious, is just how awesome, kind, and thoughtful Sean and Tyler are. I absolutely loved spending the day with them and capturing all those emotions, moments, friends and family. These two are such an amazing couple, something that was reinforced to me when I photographed their engagement shoot last year. The second thing that really stuck out to me was - it’s no mystery as to why Settlers Creek is one of my favorite venues. The people there are so great, and the area is absolutely gorgeous. So all these things came together into one absolutely beautiful day - with so many unique things (such as a cocktail hour before the wedding, s’mores, and the chance to do a pre-sunset, sunset session). I hope you love these as much as I loved taking them.

Alex and Allison's Spokane Wedding at the Bozarth Mansion

Alex and Allison had such a beautiful wedding - even if the weather on that day was far from beautiful. We had a mix of sun, rain, hail, clouds and everything in between. I honestly can’t say i’ve ever seen a day that random before. That said, I would say we got really lucky, as it seemed to downpour every time we transitioned from one location to the other, and we got some great light from the overcast skies multiple times. But the real highlight of the day was easily Alex and Allison, who were kind, thoughtful, and so so easy to work with. They had meaning and thought woven through the entire day, from Allison’s bouquet to her first dance with her father. I absolutely loved it. So it is such a privilege to be able to share these photos with you, I hope you love them as much as I loved taking them.

Michael and Katie's CDA Resort Wedding

Michael and Katie had a super memorable engagement for me - mainly because Michael is deathly afraid of heights, and I asked them to stand on a pretty large cliff. Either way, it was such a great way for me to get to know them, and have a good time. This always translates into a positive experience on wedding day, and it did on this day too. Michael and Katie are just kind people, they are fun, easy to talk to, and game for anything. Even when I ask them to drive a golf cart in the dark through a crowd of people. This wedding day was absolutely beautiful, and sharing it with you is something i’m very excited about. Here are some of my favorites from their day!

Clay and Alyssa's Wedding at the Ridge at Greenbluff

Clay and Alyssa have magnetic personalities. They are just fun to be around and talk to. I saw this when we did their engagement shoot last year (which was a favorite for sure) but I also saw this when we did their wedding. Their friends and family are so kind, and made the whole day go by so quickly. Add in the excellent staff at The Ridge at Greenbluff and Sydney with Piece of Harmony Events and this wedding was always going to be one I loved. Such a great day, and I am so excited to share the many laughs, tears, and moments that filled the day.
