I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Seattle. I create emotional photostories.
I love photography. I love all the technical aspects of f-stops, shutter speeds, megapixels, photoshop, and lighting. I love the art of photography in the composition, angles, bokeh, point of view, and the way the technical changes the art. More than even the art, I love the expressions and emotions that people portray in their face, body language, and hand positions. Along the way, I’ve met a lot of great people, gotten to photograph some pretty cool things, and had a lot of fun. I am very happy to have chosen a career in photography. I also have an amazing wife, Leslie, and three fantastic children. Life is good. You can also find recent posts about me below on my blog, on my portfolio site, or look me up on facebook. |
Sneha & Tarak - Garba in Woodinville
I had a great three days with Sneha and Tarak. On Friday night we were back at the Carol Edwards center for an evening of traditional Indian dancing.

Sneha & Tarak - Mehndi in Woodinville
Sneha and Tarak started their wedding celebration on Thursday with the Mehndi. It was the first time I got a chance to see and participate in a Mehndi, so it was very cool for me! They had the Mehndi at the Carol Edwards Center in Woodinville. My kids have played on the soccer fields below, but I’d never been in the building before!
I didn't know that this place existed in Woodinville. It has a nice big room adjacent to the gym. Made for a great place for the Mehndi.

Applying the Mehndi to the bride's feet. I don't think Sneha moved for about three hours!

Annie & Ryan - Wedding at Cedarbrook in Seatac!
Annie and Ryan are a great couple. Very fun and friendly - they made me feel like a family member at their wedding! We started the day at Cedarbrook Conference Center in Seatac where the official ceremony was early in the day with an outdoor ceremony for family and friends in the afternoon and the reception at Tea Palace in Renton. What a blast. I love my job!

Annie, rebel that she is, standing on a table for a portrait. Standing on the table gave a cooler view and less cluttered background.

Annie is doing her best to stuff the ring onto Ryan's finger, but the heat made his fingers swell!
