You found me!

I suppose you want to know a little bit about the lady behind the camera.  Well, I'm a lover, a shaker and a fun-time maker. Taking photos is my way of giving back to the world all the goodness it has given me. 

I've been covering weddings, music and nightlife for ten years and have been known to roll around on the floor with kiddos whenever an opportunity presents itself.  I am married to a sweet and funny tall drink of somethin' else named Robin and have two four-legged children (okay, they're really dogs) at home that keep us active.

Please comment if you see something that makes you smile, laugh or think twice.  I like to know these things. 

Steph & Trev’s Backyard Wedding in Leavenworth

Steph & Trev were married in Leavenworth in Steph’s grandparents’ backyard.  There is something so comfortable about a backyard wedding.  By the end of the day you feel as if it is your own.  They tapped one of Seattle’s favorite wedding planners, Michelle Engvall of Married with Michelle, to help bring their wild and wacky wedding plans to fruition.  The wedding was the perfect representational mix of their hilarious sense of humor and good taste.  Wedding programs were replicas of their faces equipped with a wooden stick to hold up in front of your own.  Each of the place card settings had a different bald celebrity (for example, Andre Agassi, Patrick Stewart, Bruce Willis, Charles Barkley, and even Britney Spears during her low period. Ha!).   Robin and I ran a photobooth that not only had our usual fare (mustaches, funky glasses & creepy animal masks) but a number of extra props Stev & Trev added to the mix like lederhosen and leprechaun hats.   Steph’s Papa Jim (a local Leavenworth celebrity, according to our B&B host) sang them down the aisle in his deep Johnny Cash like timber and again during the reception.  Salmon Dave and his band keep the classic rock jamming into the night and just when you burned off all your dinner calories, a hot dog cart appeared to satiate your late night munchies.  It’s pretty obvious that these two are fun folks to be around but I have to confirm it – they are hilarious!

Jenny J - the deets on Steph's dress: "It is actually the shell of a strappy Dessy bridesmaids dress (la belle elaines) that I brought to a seamstress Trish Jens. She completely reconstructed the dress into my vision... adding the halter strap, adjusting the neckline, adding a bow/wrap, and a petticoat. I found the most amazing corset at Zovo Lingerie (in U Village). The corset peeked out of the neckline of my dress, so Trish found matching lace to peek out of the hemline!"November 27, 2009 - 9:19 pm
