Wedding: Keaton & Mark

Keaton and Mark were married at one of my favorite venues in the city, Herban Feast Sodo Park. It was a great day start to finish–both Mark and Keaton were so laid back and calm. The venue, which is gorgeous as is, was filled with colorful dahlias in stunning metal vases made by Mark. The [...]

Wedding: Maria & Chris

After seeing how much fun their rehearsal dinner was, I knew I was going to love Maria & Chris’ wedding. And I did. There were incredible Orcas Island water views everywhere you turned at the Inn at Ship Bay. A ceremony by a grove of old plum trees.  Some of the best food I’ve ever [...]
