Montana Wedding Photographer / Elena and Joey at Bitterroot Barn in Corvallis, MT

Such a fun day (and week) for these two! Elena grew up in Montana, but lives in Boston where she met Joey. They had a busy week with friends and family for their "destination" wedding back in Elena's hometown. A beautiful setting with fields, dirt roads, barns and surrounded by mountains. In Elena's words "Truly was the best day of my life!". I never met Elena and Joey before their wedding, but we do share a best friend (and bridesmaid), and I feel lucky I was trusted to capture this day for them and be such a big part of it! I had so much fun I barely noticed the triple digit temps! :)

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Melanie and JW

Since I'm posting Melanie and JW's wedding photos from this weekend I realized I have been so bad on my blog that I never even posted their engagement session last fall!!! So here is one of those at least... spokane engagement photoI have been better at posting 'most' recent sessions on my facebook page, but as summer comes there will be more weddings on the blog as well!

So "3-2-1 blast off" as they say for their 3/21 wedding, love that! This couple truly has a lot to look forward to in building their lives together and it's obvious they are very excited for it. It was fun hanging out with them and their family and friends all day. Turned out several of their friends are my friends as well, so it was extra fun running into people.

As you can see Melanie was a beautiful bride! Bouquet/flowers gorgeous by Esther with Special Touch. The ceremony was at Summit Church, with the reception at The Lincoln Center, which was decorated amazingly! The day couldn't have gone any better... Melanie did an amazing job planning!!! :) Congrats to you both! I am so happy for you guys to start a new chapter of your lives together!

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Monica and Nico at Mrs. Kalin's Barn

This couple had a beautiful wedding on Greenbluff on August 23rd, 2014. Mrs. Kalin's Barn offers a great venue for an outdoor ceremony and a covered outdoor reception. I was excited to finally have a wedding there! Monica and Nico are such a great couple and perfect together. Nico's mom, Melissa (and my hair dresser), did SO much putting this wedding together (I know from her telling about her projects over the last year). She made just about every decoration and detail herself, ran around putting it all together that day, and even did Monica's hair and make-up of course. There were no details left out. Simply gorgeous day for her son and her new daughter-in-law that they love GREATLY! There was no dry eye during the speeches at this one. Myself, even the caterers (Just a Couple of Moms), I heard had to wipe some happy tears for this couple. Happy endings are the best!

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Alexx and Derek at Castle Vineyards

Alexx and Derek held their wedding at Castle Vineyards in Deer Park on August 22, 2014. This was the last, but not least, wedding for the 4 siblings in Derek's family... one of those also being just this past July! It has been so fun doing all their weddings and watching this family grow with not only spouses, but all the many babies. Even Derek's twin sister couldn't make it to the wedding being she just had her 3rd baby! (Congrats Dani and Arlan!). Alexx and Derek's wedding was wonderful all together, even through a little bit of rain, but the obvious highlight was their helicopter getaway that Derek completely surprised Alexx with. I just loved her reaction! Such an amazing day and evening they had.

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Bree and Anthony in Ione, WA

What an amazing 2 day event for this couple! Bree and Anthony held their wedding vow ceremony in Ione, Washington on August 1st with their families followed by a reception in Spokane at The Service Station the next day with their friends. I didn't start off the wedding day with the normal groomsmen getting ready scene, but instead we did photos of the boys with guns! Something Anthony knows well and the guys enjoyed! After Bree was dressed we went right into the ceremony, it was beautiful down by the water. The pastor started off singing about how they met and fell in love to the song Hallelujah with the guests joining in on the chorus... so fun and creative! I also loved that they wrote each other letters about why they fell in love and locked it in a box for them to read on their 10 year anniversary (or if they are having conflict in their marriage as a reminder). I haven't seen this often and it's something I also did at my wedding... our's is still locked in the box and Bree and Anothony's wedding was also my 6 year anniversary! I was so happy to share my anniversary with this amazing couple at such a beautiful location. Bree did an amazing job with every detail. A lot of well spent time on Pinterest! On day 2 at The Service Station it was all about having a good time. Anthony's rock band from Young Life, Panda-moan-e-um, played for the crowd and started the party. There was tons of talent here between his entire band to a beat boxer and a solo-artist who wrote a song for Bree, and not to mention the guests singing and dancing.

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Leah and Michael at The Davenport Hotel

Leah and Michael were married at Central Lutheran Church with a reception at The Davenport Hotel on July 26th. Planning the wedding from across the state and there were no details missed! Amazing day! Leah planned a big surprise for Michael with Butch T. Cougar (WSU mascot) arriving to start the party off. He stayed and danced with the crowd and posed for pictures. I haven't seen a mascot at a wedding before, that was a first! This was a fun party and a true celebration of a couple uniting! Leah and Michael's honeymoon this week is traveling to Yale University to start their next journey, congrats!!!

Leah and Rob were married on July 25th in Look Lake, WA at a private residence. This is the 3rd wedding in Rob's family that I've photographed and love that I get to see their family expand and welcome Leah. There is no doubt this couple is very much in love and have so many people that love them! They are already on the right track with 3 kids, a beautiful family! Congrats you two!

Hayden Lake Wedding Photographer / Charla and Bill at The Clark House

Charla and Bill held there wedding at the beautiful Clark House in Hayden Lake, ID on July 14th. An early afternoon wedding followed by lunch surrounded by their closest friends. Charla and Bill have a fun story... they met 7 years ago walking their dogs, but when their dogs decided not to get along at the park they decided to just wave at each other from afar. Years went by and they both wondered about the other. A year ago they met again in a gym class and now they are husband and wife! It's funny how things work out.

Amanda and Josh celebrated their wedding ceremony and reception at The Davenport Hotel on July 12, 2014. It's been a hot weekend, so everyone was happy to spend most of the day inside! Amanda did such a good job planning every detail of this day and everything went PERFECTLY! I can't think of one thing that could've been changed to make this day any better for them. I was happy to be a part of it! As always it was great working with The Davenport Hotel and Traks DJ Service.

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Courtney and Tony at Spokane Club and Redeemer Lutheran Church

Courtney and Tony weren't just High School sweethearts, but they even went to Preschool together and at the same church they were married in. How cute is that! We started the day off at Jaazz Hair Salon and The Davenport Hotel before getting in their A Little Class Limo. After taking photos downtown we headed to the Valley to Redeemer Lutheran Church for the ceremony and then back downtown to the Spokane Club for the reception. Everyone had a great time! I think the highlight of their day (besides getting married) was their limo stop to get Slurpies on the way to the ceremony! spokane wedding photos Davenport

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Melissa and David at Northern Quest Casino

Melissa and David held their wedding ceremony and reception at Northern Quest Casino on Saturday, June 21st. After all the rainy weather we had last week it turned out to be the perfect day for it! We went to a nearby private garden, owned by a friend of theirs, for some photos which gave us a nice variety along with the fabulous Casino. David is also a photographer, so he knew it would give us some nice options. I'm always honored when a photographer decides to have me capture their special day! Melissa and David are pretty much the nicest couple you'll ever meet! Congratulations you two!!!

Spokane Wedding Photography / Morgan and Bryce at Belle Victorian Gardens

Morgan and Bryce had a beautiful wedding day at Belle Victorian Gardens in Deer Park. They have the cutest little girl that was obviously a center of attention all day, next to her Mommy of course! Being from California I finally met them at the rehearsal dinner, but I had a really good time getting to know them over the two days! Check out their wedding day...

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Jessica and Cole at Beacon Hill

Jessica and Cole's wedding at Beacon Hill was beautifully put together thanks to some amazing vendors. Even with these two planning from out of town and with a shorter six month engagement. This couple didn't want to waste any time tying the knot, they just knew and are so in love! Jessica's make-up was flawless and done by the reputable The Make-Up Studio. Terri with Just Roses did all the flowers, and lots of flowers! Beacon Hill's food was incredible, as usual, but this was really really good! And Craig with Milestone Music had the party going even past the bride and groom's departure. To see more images check out their slideshow below....

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Julie and Jamie at Beacon Hill

After 12.5 years Julie and Jamie are finally married! October 6, 2012 was the big day at Beacon Hill. Not being from Spokane, the majority of their family and friends had to travel to be here, but so many of them would have never missed this moment! They had clear blue skies and warm weather (until the sun went down... and probably not warm at all in the opinions of the travelers from warmer climates!). They honored Chinese tradition with a tea ceremony for their family following the ceremony. The bride and groom greet and serve tea to their relatives. Julie and Jamie had made just about everything at their wedding. They both contributed with all the DIY projects and had spent the last several months making and prepping these items together. Julie even made bouquets and boutonnieres! They are such a great couple together and they couldn't stop smiling at each other all day! It was a wonderful day to be a part of. I've also had Gangnam Style stuck in my head for a couple days since it was played 3 times, haha! :)  Make-up: The Make-Up Studio, Hair: Salon Concepts, Florist: Fleur De Provence, Cake: Just American Desserts, DJ: Complete Music

Spokane Wedding Photographer / Jessica and Ryan at Glover Mansion

The Glover Mansion was a perfect venue for this couple, Jessica and Ryan, last weekend. They had the best of both worlds with an outside ceremony and an indoor reception for the rest of the evening, as the weather gets chillier now. Jessica looked beautiful and Ryan's occasional tears throughout the day showed how happy he was. Everything Jessica picked for her wedding day was so perfect and went wonderful together. Wine bottles that guests signed for the couple to drink at big anniversaries - what a cute idea! Their reception was definitely the highlight starting with their plated dinners served by Glover Mansion. Then to the lively dance party thanks to the fun bride and groom that danced the night away and Complete Music.
