Mark and Anna are kind people, and watching them bring their two families together was a blessing. They are both thoughtful, and wanted to include their kids in all the aspects of their wedding. This included things like keeping them at the head table next to them as they ate, and having them be a part of their first look and ceremony. It was beautiful, and I absolutely loved seeing it. While the weather this day was cool overcast, it made for some beautiful colors and light, and Beacon Hill shined as it always does. I’m excited to be able to share these select photos with you, as they are some of my favorites that tell the story of their day - from beginning to end.

Dan and Kaylene's Spokane Lake Wedding

Dan and Kaylene had an amazing wedding. Set at a very beautiful venue (a venue which is still trying to decide if they want to be well known or not) with a great view of Lake Spokane, it seemed like everything went exactly the way you’d want it to. People were all there - on time - the light was beautiful and the couple even more so. I loved meeting each of their family members, from their kids, to their kids’ families, each person I met was kind and thoughtful. This wedding was a lot of fun because of these people, but even more so because Dan and Kaylene are just great people. Look no further than their many toasts, and all the stories that came with them. Here are some of my favorites from their wedding.

Chris and Ashley's Wedding at the Ridge at Greenbluff

Chris and Ashley got married on an absolutely beautiful day in late August, with some incredible weather, people and of course, an awesome location. This one was a lot of fun for me, between the excellent vendors, people, and moments, it was one I had a lot of fun at. These two were great from the beginning, and I think it shows. Definitely let me know what you think, excited to share these!

Dan and Lisa's Historic Davenport Wedding in Spokane, WA

Dan and Lisa had such a beautiful day, taking advantage of three of the Davenports beautiful ballrooms, from their ceremony, reception, and dance party. They have an incredible family, so many kind friends, but man - I love how these two just look at each other. From their first look to their sunset photos, I enjoyed Dan and Lisa at every moment on their beautiful day. So excited to share these with you, from the big to the little moments, and I hope you love the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Sam and Megan's Wedding on Diamond Lake

Sam and Megan had such an absolutely beautiful wedding. Taking place at a Boy Scout camp on Diamond Lake in Washington, it had some beautiful backgrounds, with lots of room, and some really natural vibes. Sydney with Piece of Harmony events killed it on the planning, bring together an absolutely huge space making each location awesome (glad we had a golf cart!). But the place just fit Sam and Megan. I loved meeting their friends and family, but above all I loved watching them laugh together. This was a beautiful wedding, and I hope you love these photos!

Eric & Magda's Backyard Wedding in Idaho

Eric and Magda hold a unique place for me because they had one of my favorite engagement shoots of the year. It wasn’t just beautiful with an amazing couple and perfect weather, rather, it also meant I had the chance to get to know these two a little bit more. They are both kind, thoughtful, and so in love with each other - not to mention super photogenic. I am excited that I get to share some of my favorite photos from their backyard wedding, where so many great things happened. I hope you love them as much as I loved taking them!
