Markie Jones — Fri, 28 Feb 2025 16:00:00 +0000

Lanya + Robert’s High Rock Lookout Elopement A little (mostly unknown) secret about me: I don’t believe in coincidences, but I DO believe in divine interventions. So, before we tread off on the trail of Lanya + Robert’s High Rock Lookout Elopement, here’s a little backstory for you: As a homeschool mom, I’m always trying...

Grays Harbor Courthouse Elopement | Katelyn + Jeff

Markie Jones — Sat, 04 Jun 2022 03:07:56 +0000

When you’re planning your wedding, it’s incredibly common to consider eloping. In over 10 years of photographing (and 15 years of either planning or helping friends plan) weddings, I cannot think of one wedding where someone didn’t throw up their hands and say “Screw it! Let’s just elope!” But the FOMO of a big reception...

Back in October, I was blessed to meet the sweetest couple, Meghan + Trent. They’d flown in from Ohio, and wanted to take some time out to adventure and capture some snowy mount rainier portraits after their wedding day.

Mountain Views for the I Dos | Kaitlin + Aaron

Markie Jones — Thu, 03 Sep 2020 02:11:02 +0000

Whenever we watch Star Wars, we’re always hoping that Princess Leia ends up with Han Solo, even if we’ve seen the ending a million times. Furthermore, we’re always disappointed that more recent movies have them broken up (though this explanation by Carrie Fischer is HILARIOUS). Lucky for Kaitlin and Aaron, they’ll handle the schwartz just...

Last Minute Elopement in Gig Harbor | Sarah + Allen

Markie Jones — Mon, 10 Aug 2020 12:30:00 +0000

Let’s just be realistic: COVID has wrenched A LOT of plans this year. But Sarah and Allen didn’t let the changes get them down and in a whirlwind pivot, they married anyway. Their last minute elopement in his sister’s gorgeous Olalla backyard is what every backyard elopement strives for. In less than two weeks, with...

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...

Patricia & Shawn | Graham Backyard Wedding

Markie Jones — Tue, 03 Dec 2019 14:42:44 +0000

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...

Crystal Mountain Elopement | Kiera & Wade

Markie Jones — Sun, 06 Oct 2019 00:49:11 +0000

A mountain elopement with a bride in a black dress? Yes please. I fully, one hundred and ten percent believe in fate. People are brought into our lives for many reasons, one being to show us the way to our true selves. Every wedding this year has been that way for me. Keira and Wade’s...

Pioneer Park Elopement | Alisa & Melissa

Markie Jones — Mon, 13 May 2019 15:21:26 +0000

Small elopements are quickly becoming my favorite things. Last year, I was given the honor of photographing Murphy and Dustin when their family session changed to a last minute elopement. It was their elopement that brought Alisa and Melissa to me. Alisa contacted me only a few days before their Pioneer Park Elopement in Steilacoom....

Romantic Elopement Style at Alki Seattle

Markie Jones — Mon, 28 May 2018 20:29:14 +0000

After every romantic elopement or wedding comes the question: What do you do with the dress? For many brides, the wedding dress is one of their largest expenses, coming in second only to the venue, photographer and catering. So what do you do when you CAN’T wear that gorgeous gown you splurged on? Wear it...

A Winter Courthouse Affair | Issaquah Wedding Photographer

Markie Jones — Sun, 31 Dec 2017 11:17:28 +0000

Some days you want to relive forever… Courthouse weddings are some of those days for me. They hold their own excitement, as if the couple simply walked into the courtroom out of their every day lives, to get married. For some, I’m sure it’s just about like that. Maybe they’re getting off work, or maybe...
