cindy + charles
Wednesday, December 31st, 2008happy new year! well, it’s not officially 2009 here in seattle yet, but it is everywhere else! i got my wisdom teeth pulled out yesterday, so i am spending new year’s eve at home, heavily medicated, and sporting a pair of sexy chipmunk cheeks.
boy, i still have so much blogging to catch up…
here’s cindy + charles’ engagement session. this gorgeous couple was a bit shy at first, but after some fun, we were able to get some super fun and cute images. i discovered a couple of new textures, so i did myself a little experimentin’.

cindy + charles, can’t wait until your wedding in may!
sandra + vincent
Tuesday, December 16th, 2008i’ve never met sandra + vincent prior to their engagement session, yet we bonded instantly as if we’ve been long time friends. by long time friends, i mean i was able to “boss” them around with questionable poses and experimental shots, where they were more than happy to comply with all my irrational demands. my favorite kind of subjects. :) their complete trust in me definitely paid off big time in the end, and i was able to capture these ultra romantic and fun images for them… definitely one of my favorite couple sessions.
sandra + vincent, thank you for being such good sports. these beautiful images wouldn’t have been possible without your jumping, running, and rolling around in your dress and suit.
kelsey+lane
Tuesday, December 9th, 2008it was a sunny and hot day in seattle. like every seattle bride, kelsey was praying for the sun. luckily, her prayer was answered. with seattle… you just never know. i wasn’t worried though, i knew i was going to get spectacular images from kelsey+lane even if it was hailing. after all, it was their amazing engagement session that won me an award.

this was meant as a serious shot, but the groomsmen surprised me in the middle of it. haha
kelsey’s dad wore these trouser shorts before the wedding as a joke. for a minute kelsey was worried.
after the wedding, kelsey+lane and i snuck off to the private beach next to the club house for a couple shots with the beautiful sunset.

kelsey + lane, thank you for another great shoot. wish you lots of love and happiness
maribeth+michael
Friday, November 28th, 2008since i’m still crazy busy and haven’t posted in a while, here’s a super-duper-giagantic-jumbo post to make up for missing in action these couple of weeks.
I’ve been looking forward to maribeth+michael’s wedding since we’ve first met. my eyes sparkled when they told me their venue was going to be at pacific design center. i was estatic to be able to work at this beautiful venue where the first season of one of my favorite shows, “top design” took place. the incredible day was coordinated by the fabulous uyen from sassy girl weddings and maribeth’s picture perfect hair and makeup was done by nicole deanne. enjoy!
it’s maliya!
to prevent the “asian flush,” maribeth had to take something that didn’t taste too good
my favorite kind of lighting
the modern architecture made for the perfect backdrop
the gorgeous details and setting
since maribeth+michael met through a dancing group, their reception really reflected their passion … there was dancing 90% of the time.
maribeth’s dad was an incredible dancer too…
by the end of the night, the energy was still on full blast.
maribeth + michael, thank you so much for this fabulous experience and all the beautiful images to add to my website!
Crisis’ over… I hope
