Anna & Jose can be best described in one word. Gracious. They are the couple that never ceases to say "thank you" for everything... and to me, that goes so far. Thanksgiving always leads to joy and these two are very joyful. They are also humble, kind and have hearts of gold. They have known each other for forever and dated almost half their lives, it's really sweet. 

Jose is the happy- go-lucky guy who is ALWAYS smiling. Anna is loyal, humble and so encouraging. They are just all around good people. They got married in January and it had been raining for a week straight in Seattle, so we all thought that surely it would do the same on their wedding day. Thankfully, we woke up the day of their wedding and the sun was peeking through the clouds, we didn't get a drop of rain on us until right as the photos were wrapping up! Someone was watching out for Anna & Jose on their big day :)

One thing you will notice is a few images of Anna's grandparents. They came in from Italy to be there for Jose and Anna. Their accents were so mesmerizing and I just thought the two of them together were beautiful. They have been married for a few decades now.. a committed love like that is to be admired. 

Anna & Jose it was so much fun to be a part of your big day! Thank you for being wonderfully you :)

This post just blew my mind... You've got an eye for moments and framing unlike any I've seen before! It's always inspiring to see how much effort you put into your work and I think this wedding is right at the top of my favorite wedding photos list.

Thanks for being an inspiration!

You got to admit to yourself that you did a great shot of setting a visual mood in a very difficult situation of that cheap motel room the groom was in. Challanging situation to make something memorable and you pulled it off well. I often find myself in those difficult situations with less than grand locations and perfect models doing the fake wedding shoots. I have to hand it to you for doing a great job in "Any" Situation. That is a true test of a skilled pro shooter. In this day in age I see merely those who make fake blogs or prepackaged perfect staged weddings on those blogs. So seeing this set of images was refreshing.. I tip my hat to you..

Absolutely beautiful. I love the shots of them on the beach and the bridge. Some really clever shots in here, and all wonderfully executed.
