A collage from a few of the weddings of 2006, (my latest business card without the info).

Not everything is going to be perfect. Note the muddy dress. And the big smile.
Life is good enough. Isn't it?

And then there was Meghan & Carl.
I love it when the personalities show through in a photo session. I printed this collage for a signature mat for their wedding.
It rained on their engagement session. But we didn't let it get us down.
The net is a piece of the deer fence around my garden that got torn out by the lawn mower.
Of course this doesn't look like an engagement photo, but Betsy & Ben brought Abby with them.
And this summer they're taking her fishing, in Alaska.
This engagement session we went for a walk on the beach. We hardly talked at all. They related to each other & I photographed. I'm a guy that likes to talk, but this worked. I've found some people need direction & some need to be left alone. If left to my own devises I may tell people to climb a tree or sit on an anthill. It's a guy thing.
Ari & Michael wanted a collage of images from their engagement session for their guest book. I made one with a bit more reserved, respectable images. Oh no, they wanted the silly ones. So, back to the old graphics tablet...

The view up 2nd Ave from the Chinese Room (35th floor) of Smith Tower. Doesn't look like a wedding photo to me either. Chantrelle & Dean's original plan hit a snag & they ended up here. Pretty cool place but a photographer's nightmare with a low black ceiling & windows all around. But what a view! Year's back I worked in the building in the lower right. I lived up near the Space Needle & walked to work down 2nd Ave about half the time.
