Woodmark Hotel Wedding and engagement photos
This shot was from an engagement portrait session we shot at the Woodmark Hotel in Kirkland. This is definitely one of my (and theirs) favorite engagement pictures from this last year, and ironically does not even feature the couples faces. I love dogs (and am the proud owner of two Boston Terriers), and can totally relate when clients want to bring along the pups for engagement sessions.
A few shots from Theresa and Zach’s wedding at The Oasis at Sodo Park. It was a gorgeous wedding with such a fun group of people. It was coordinated by Holly-Kate of Sweet Pea Events, and decorated with Flowers from Christopher Flowers. The Oasis is a new room at Sodo Park, and it definitely has a unique feel. It’s a great setting for smaller weddings. And as you can see there are a lot of great areas for pictures right outside! Click here to see more Oasis at Sodo Park wedding pictures in our gallery.
I’ve been looking through all of last years pictures to come up with a “best-of” post (actually started this the last week of December), but it’s just so hard to pick looking through almost 100,000 images. I’m not trying to say everything I shoot is amazing-but not saying it isn’t either 
however there are just shots I really really love from literally every single event. When you know the people, and were part of their wedding day, it’s hard to to not be in love with the pictures. So basically I decided I need to just fire off pictures to the blog that I really like randomly without trying to make one big gallery.
So to start, here is one of my favorite dancing pictures from last year. I love shooting receptions, because at this point in the wedding, any stress or nervousness that might have been present earlier in the day has melted away and the day turns in to a pure celebration. In this picture the groom and his dad are dancing and singing at the top of their lungs (to a Backstreet Boys song if I remember correctly!)

I was excited to learn that Christina and Kevin’s wedding at the Washington Athletic Club was featured in the latest issue of their member magazine. If you happen to be a subscriber be sure to check it out 
Here are a few other pictures from their beautiful day. We started by shooting some pictures getting ready in their Suite at the WAC, then did a first look on the rooftop deck, followed by portraits across the street. There are so many great places to shoot in downtown Seattle. I love it when we get to walk the streets with a wedding party! Click here to see more Wedding pictures at the Washington Athletic Club.
I put this one last because it just might be my favorite fo the day. His expression is too funny!
I started looking back through all of my 2011 pictures for a big end of the year post, and realized there are a ton of awesome pictures I never even blogged, and many more from events I did blog, but couldn’t fit in the posts. The busier I am shooting, the less time I have to blog, so in that way it was a great year in 2011. I got to work with so many great people, and be a part of so many great moments. I will have plenty of great blog material to get through the winter.
Here are a few from Jen and Ryan’s engagement session in the fall. We walked around some of their favorite spots in the city, starting at the Olympic Sculpture Park, and then heading over to Gasworks Park. Their wedding also happens to be my first one of 2012 later this month, (somewhere in the Caribbean, and requiring a passport
