Intimate Wedding Along Hood Canal

Some of the most special weddings I’ve photographed, have been small, intimate, family only weddings.  There is something so dear about gathering ones family to usher in the next phase of life.  Brent and Hannah had the most perfect weather on their wedding, as family surrounded them at Brent’s family summer cabin along Hood Canal.  How fitting that he would add his marriage ceremony to the treasured memories he holds at this special place, with many more to come!  After the  sweetest ceremony and heartfelt vows, guests were treated to an incredible dinner masterfully created by the talented Dahlia Lounge staff.  A truly elegant start to the rest of their life together.  Cheers!_DSC5561-Edit _DSC5632-Edit _DSC5745-Edit _DSC5759-Edit _DSC5767-Edit _DSC5800-Edit _DSC5815-Edit _DSC5839-Edit _DSC5856 _DSC5879 _DSC5921-Edit _DSC5928 _DSC6168-Edit _DSC6504-Edit _DSC6577-Edit _DSC6580-Edit_DSC6181 _DSC6668 _DSC6679 _DSC6684 _DSC6697 _DSC6704

Adorable, Dog Loving Couple’s West Seattle Wedding {Salty’s on Alki Beach, West Seattle Wedding}

I first met Reid working a wedding together a couple of years ago.  His funky mohawk and lively personality made such an impression on me, as did his incredible eye–he is the man behind the creative force, Best Made Videos, beautiful, moving wedding films.  I was honored to have him refer his close friends to me for their sweet wedding, where I met his stunning girlfriend Dorothy, who was a bridesmaid that day.  When they became engaged, I was over the moon excited to be asked to photograph their wedding!  I knew this wedding was going to be a celebration full of life and maybe just a teensy tiny bit of fun! Ha!

They included their beloved pup Rosie in the first look, I’m not sure who received more kisses… Surrounded by family and friends, the clouds gave way to blue skies as they said their I Do’s.  Guests were treated to the delicious northwest cuisine of Salty’s Restaurant, which fueled the way to lighting up the dance floor.  Such a loving, connected group of people.  I would say they are beyond lucky to be supported by such a loving community.  Cheers to you both!!_DSC2511 _DSC2554-Edit _DSC2558 _DSC2567 _DSC2571 _DSC2579 _DSC2591 _DSC2598 _DSC2613 _DSC2630 _DSC2635 _DSC2639 _DSC2643 _DSC2648 _DSC2659 _DSC2666 _DSC2700 _DSC2707 _DSC2723 _DSC2744 _DSC2770 _DSC2842 _DSC2845 _DSC2863 _DSC2878 _DSC2921 _DSC2932 _DSC3010 _DSC3166 _DSC3259 _DSC3327 _DSC3365 _DSC3413 _DSC3441 _DSC3454 _DSC3513 _DSC3549 _DSC3578 _DSC3579
