Courtney & Ira | Seattle
July 4th, 2011
Back in April, Matt and I traveled to the northwest for one of my top engagement sessions ever. It’s not everyday that we travel by seaplane to a remote family cabin. Yep, we flew by seaplane to Quilcene on The Hood Canal outside Seattle, Washington. I managed to shoot a few rolls of film for this as well.
This place is special.
I met Courtney at Gina & Mike’s wedding back in 2007-so cool that she kept my card all that time and called me to photograph her wedding (in Napa this August). Since both Courtney and Ira grew up in Seattle I knew we’d have to shoot their engagement portraits there. After a few phone calls to talk about locations and details she had mentioned that Ira is an avid skier. I was discussing with her options to shoot near some mountains or something “Northwest”. What a location she got. This place is Ira’s family retreat (summer holidays, clam-digging, getting oysters) and you can feel how special it is. Although the cabin was being remodeled we managed to spend about 2 hours before heading back to Seattle. On our way back we took the scenic route and flew over the Olympic Mountains.
I love that 3 days before the shoot I got a text message “we have a seaplane for Saturday”…
It’s been so long since I’ve shot film, below are a few of my favorites.

Alison + JR | Wedding
April 19th, 2011
A few favorites from this beautiful fall wedding of Alison & JR’s back in October. I think one of the coolest things about this wedding was the band from St Louis, Galaxy Red. A mix of traditional with a bit of spinning and you get some great entertainment. The reception took place at one of my favorite places, Happy Hollow Country Club in Omaha.
