    We’re at a Marriott in suburban Portland, with a king bed and kitchenette. Chris looks around and says, “We’re camping!” and he’s right, that’s MY idea of camping. For this Seattle’s Child story, I found like-minded people who prefer staying indoors. Because, bugs and dirt? No thanks. Not everyone in the Seattle area loves the…

    I can’t see Joseph playing organized sports, but maybe Paul? The awesome women at UW’s Center for Leadership in Athletics make a good case for why more women coaches are needed. The story’s on Seattle’s Child here.

    Toby and Amy met at Pacific Lutheran University, where they were anatomy study partners. (That’s not a joke — both majored in exercise science.) They tied the knot at their alma mater on a perfect August day. I was honored to photograph the wedding with Narayan Mahon, a fellow ‘Cuse grad and an accomplished commercial and editorial photographer. (Look for…

    Kristin and Memo first met in art school, and many years and separate roads later, they were married at Shishole Bay Beach Club. Their ceremony was so sweet and heartfelt there wasn’t a dry eye in the audience. I was honored to photograph the wedding. Memo and Gali, 8, walk down the aisle together. Gali…

    Grilling is a tradition in Memo’s family, so Memo and Kristin hosted a big bbq in their backyard the day before their wedding. The men started the grill up at 11 a.m., and six hours later, served up the best chicken, sausage and tri-tip ever. Juicy? Check. Savory? Check. AMAZING?! Check. These are men who take their meat seriously. It was…

    My East Coast nephews and niece flew into Seattle yesterday, a long trip made even longer when some passenger decided he didn’t like the sound of the plane’s engine. Everyone had to get off the plane and wait for the plane to be checked out — it was fine — before getting on with the flight.…

At Volunteer Park, Sadie was beside herself with all the people around her playing soccer and Frisbee, and the squirrels and crows to stalk. At one-and-a-half, she’s got tons of energy and loves to play.   Kristina’s…
