Coeur d'Alene Engagement Photos: Robbie & Caitlyn

The first time they met Robbie was Caitlyn's EMT instructor (if I remember that right… he was an instructor of something). Anyway, Caitlybn said she never really thought of him "that way" and Robbie was in the same boat. They were just teacher/student. That said, Caitlyn would move away, and there would be no relationship there. When she moved back though they ended up being in a similar work group, and Robbie was no longer the "much older teacher" but rather the "slightly older funny guy" that was "quite cute". Even though they would spend more time together, it wasn't until they both volunteered to help at an event that they started to notice each other.

Coeur d'Alene Maternity Photos: Adam & Ashley

Last year I had the chance to photograph Adam and Ashley’s beautiful backyard wedding. It was fun, unique and beautiful. So when Ashley contacted me to tell me they were pregnant and wanted maternity photos I was so pumped! I’ve always enjoyed talking with them, whether on the side of a mountain or at their wedding, we’ve had a great time. Ashley is absolutely gorgeous with her pregnant glow, and i’m so excited that these two are starting a family.

Coeur d'Alene Elopement: Dustin & Kristina's CDA Lake Wedding

Dustin and Kristina are two amazing people, with an amazing daughter. They came up here to get married in an amazing place, and I was so happy to help them find and be a part of that moment. Getting to be a part of a wedding that consisted of only four people is always something I love, and I think it’s so beautiful. I hope you love these photos of their beautiful ceremony as we move into one of the most wonderful times of the year.

Spokane Wedding Photographers: Ryan & Elizabeth's Palouse Wedding

Ryan and Elizabeth had an amazing wedding, from their beautiful ceremony in Post Falls to their incredible sunset out on the Palouse, their wedding was filled with so many great moments. I think of the worship in the church during their ceremony, the music - with all in attendance singing - was beautiful and mesmerizing. I think of their laughs as we walked through the fields together, or when I grabbed. a couple quick photos of them two with all their family watching. These two are amazing, kind, and quick to smile. I loved being there for their wedding - a wedding that had to be changed so much because of Covid. And now I get to share so many of those moments with you, I hope you love them.

Spokane Engagement Photographer: Cole & Nicky

Cole and Nicky are two people I find myself really enjoying. Their conversation is lively, they laugh easily, and their smiles come quick. They have a joy for life - something i’m sure you are aware of. I loved getting to know them more during their shoot, hearing more about how they met (during their time at Eastern Washington University) and how that meeting changed their lives. They realized that the relationship they were in wasn’t like any other when Cole tore his Achilles (if I remember correctly). Achilles tears are some of the worst sports injuries someone could get because you basically can’t walk while it heals.

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Carson & Arianna

While that changes the way I experience the day, what it doesn’t tell you is how great the day was. How in this time of canceled and rescheduled weddings (this wedding had to change venues over to Idaho at the last minute) these two amazing people decided that they wanted to get married, and they didn’t really care much about where or the how. Turns out, their backup venue was absolutely beautiful, with an incredible ceremony site, lots of room for photos and people, and a truly memorable group of people, Carson and Arianna’s wedding was awesome..Truth is, they are just quality people, with quality friends and family. it made their wedding so enjoyable. I hope these photos give you even a small glimpse of how beautiful it truly was.
