Would you imagine for a moment, walking into your wedding venue on a bright sunny day, the cool breeze brushing your hair from your face, and the sound of falling water greeting you. Wonderfully pleasant isn’t it? This is the exact scene that greeted us when we arrived for Miranda and Wayne’s rustic chic Brookstom…
Over the river and through the woods, to the Best Western Silverdale Beachside Inn. This beautiful color infused wedding was an honor to shoot, and one I’ll never forget! Everything from the handcrafted signs to the coordinated wedding party gifts was carefully curated by the bride and groom. A Match Made in Heaven Ashley and…
Between the piercings and tattoos, I look a little more urban hip hop than country. At one point though, I longed for wide open spaces (enter OLD Dixie Chicks song here) and what I didn’t know is that I’d get the joy of photographing a wedding there. I met Dawn in elementary school, and when…
You can call it kismet, fate or a force of the universe. Sometimes the stars just align and we end up doing that one thing we really love no matter where we’re physically located at the time. This is one of those stories. It’s a story about that one time I crashed a wedding in…
In June, I was able to join forces with a few of my favorite models for this beautiful spring at Altimeter Cabin Wedding Shoot! I’d never been out to Altimeter Cabin before, but when Andrea contacted me and asked about planning a few styled shoots, I jumped at the opportunity to head out to Ashford….
Personal growth and enrichment has been big on my “to do” list for 2020. I’ve always strived to bring my best skills to the table when it comes to serving my clients. This year I’m making those skills my #1 priority. I started with investing big on Black Friday with a WONDERFUL set of courses…
I’ve been lucky to meet some pretty awesome people in the past couple years via Facebook groups, workshops and networking. One of those awesome people is Juli of Bonell Photography out of Hoqium. I was thrilled when she asked me to second shoot for her in October at Lake Quinault Lodge, even though it meant…
Kismet happens on a regular basis around here. It’s what lead me to Brookstom Creek, and what leads some pretty amazing couples to us as a whole. Makenzie and Garret were one such couple. These adorable lovebirds tied the knot in a beautiful October wedding where their high school teacher officiated their wedding. Yes, you…
One of the greatest things about meeting clients at Brookstom Creek’s open houses is that instant click. When Haylee walked up, there was almost a spark in the air that said “You need to accept this wedding”. As she approached I overheard “This one is the photographer I wanted to book, but she’s not available”….
It’s rare nowadays, that I find couples (other than myself) who choose to skip the engagement session, but Donna and Aaron live busy lives too! Their dreams for a sunny wedding day truly tested Donna’s laid back personality but in the end, the rainbow was worth it. Donna was amazing while the team tossed around…
There once was a tree. A little boy loved this tree very much, and after many years of climbing this tree, brought his beloved to the base to be married. This is the story of the Moody Friday the 13th Wedding… For my birthday this year, I booked a wedding. I came home to a…
I look forward to every Brookstom Creek Wedding I get to photograph, but this one in particular really had me itching for September to arrive. Mariah and Kasey are two of the sweetest people you’ll meet, and I was honored to be chosen to stand by their side. I couldn’t have picked a sweeter couple…
