Shooting with Jack Young - Kam and Gregory

I had the pleasure of shooting with my good friend Jack Young this Saturday and what a great time we had! The weather was amazing! Who'd have thought we'd have a beautiful cloudless blue sky at the end of September?

Kam and Gregory were married at the Thornewood Castle on American Lake just south of Tacoma. This place is a stunning 16th century castle! Stephen King's made for tv movie 'Rose Red' was filmed there a few years ago. They remodeled the grand hall on the main floor. They did a stellar job!

Here's few of my favorite images from their wedding day. Be sure to check out Jack's site for the full wedding day story.



Thanks Jack for bringing me a long to shoot with you. As always, it was great working with you!

Congratulations Kam and Gregory! You two have a great sense of humour. I love that! :)

Blog All messed up....

Hmm, looks like the hosting company I use for my website upgraded their management software over the weekend and hosed my blog in the process. I was able to republish from Blogger's archive but my uploaded images are *poof* gone. Now, if I could actually login to my management console perhaps I could restore the images from backup but that doesn't seem to be working either. I'll have to give them a call tomorrow if it isn't cleared up by then.

Tiffany & Bobby's Enagement Session

I got to hang out with Tiffany and Bobby for a few hours yesterday. We headed over to the Arboretum's Japanese Gardens and I shot some engagement photos for them. Then it was off to dinner at a little Italian place nearby. It was fun!

Here's the shot we're using for their engagment wallet cards that I create for my couples.



Tiffany and Bobby are getting married this September and I can't wait to document their day! They're a great couple with a lot of great energy. It's going to be awesome!

The Jason Parker Quartet

There's this great guy I met at the Brides' Club Wedding Expo in Seattle this last weekend, his name is Jason Parker and you have to check him out! Jason had a booth across the aisle from me and we had a great time talking this last weekend. His band plays local clubs in Seattle as well as wedding gigs. So, if you like jazz and want a live 4 piece at your wedding, give Jason a call!

He got up on stage both days of the show and played a set with his guys. Here's a couple photos of Jason and the bass player wailing.

Jessica and Dominic

I had the pleasure of shooting a wedding yesterday with Susie Hamidi. Susie and I have had a great time this year photographing some awesome weddings. Here are some photos from Jessica and Dominic's day.



Dominic gave all of his groomsmen these cool cuff links.


I hadn't met Jessica until she stepped out of the limo at St. James Cathedral. She is a doll! So gracious and beautiful! You looked stunning Jessi!



This was taken down at Post Alley under Pike's Place Market. I love the lighting and the 'old world' feel of it.




Jessica! You're gorgeous! Oh, ya, Dominic, you're looking good too stud.



Jessica's brother got stuck with flower duty so Susie and I turned him into a hand model.

In all, it was a beautiful wedding with an awesome group of people! Thanks Susie for having me along. Thanks Dominic and Jessica for being such a joy to work with! Congratulations!
