Toby and Amy’s wedding in Tacoma
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’s Shilshole Bay wedding
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…

Kristin and Memo’s pre-wedding BBQ
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…

Monica and Jason’s wedding in Medina
Monica and Jason’s wedding embodied the ultimate Seattle day — a rainy one. Chris and I pulled into Medina Park early, and like many other wedding guests, we waited in the car, hoping the rain would taper off. (It didn’t.) We checked Monica’s tweets — no mention of a change in location. So when 4 o’clock…

Scott and his beautiful bride, Elissa, have been together for nine years. This weekend, they tied the knot at McMenamins Edgefield, just outside Portland. Chris and I attended the wedding (Scott is our cousin) and I couldn’t resist taking a few pictures. Bundles of delicate flowers decorated the seats. Elissa’s mom watching her daughter walk…

Jing and Peter: the party!
The evening was packed with entertainment: a live band, two musically gifted friends and a comedian kept things rocking. Peter’s parents on the dance floor. It’s not hard to see where Peter gets his good nature and easy smile. John shares a dance with my friend Chi. Earlier, he’d pulled off a terrific guitar performance…

Jing and Peter’s reception
After the ceremony, the wedding guests moved indoors for a cocktail reception followed by dinner. Live orchids decorated each table in the conservatory. Passed hor d’oeuvres included beef wellingtons, mushroom and goat cheese strudel and chicken skewers. A seafood station offered shrimp, oysters and lobster claws. Yum! Peter’s mom at the reception. A…

The wedding ceremony took place on the patio of the Harvard Faculty Club. A string tio set the tone as guests arrived. Jing and Peter’s wedding rings, photographed on one of their altar arrangements. It was a little breezy, and I was terrified the rings would fall and … . I made the best man…

Boston Public Garden
We took a short ride to Boston Public Garden for pictures. Did you ever read Make Way for Ducklings? It’s one of my favorite children’s books, and I got to ride the famous swan boat! A horse (carrying a police officer) stopped for a quick smooch. Jing and Peter’s parents, aunts and uncles.…

Harvard Faculty Club
After Jing and Peter got dressed, I made portraits of them inside the Harvard Faculty Club. The light in the hallway was absolutely perfect, like a Vermeer painting.
